HELLO, SEPTEMBER!

We survived another Depths of Hell West Virginia summer!

Here's hoping the next Colder Than A Well Digger's A*$ West Virginia winter just tucks its tail in fear & shame & stays away from us!

... wait. Sorry. My bad. This is CLAY COUNTY -

there's no such thing as fear or shame.


BRING ON FALL!!

Who's got big plans for the Apple Festival?

The Class of 1981 will be having their 30 year class reunion. The Class of 1981 - that graduated 30 years ago!!- is my brother, Alan's, class. I hope each & every one of them have lived their lives as fully as he did.

Well as you know the Ace Flube reporter has taken this week off also and hasn't had an upgrade on his site as of yet. Guess that government grant money is still tiding him through another month of vacations on the taxpayers.

Sometimes after days of no updates (which gives him bragging rights for how many hits his site gets) I hit (right click) reload and a new page comes up. Hope this helps.

37 years of Earl Ray Tomblin and now he wants to be the governor for another year. Can Clay county kick him off the dole this election or do we have to put up with more crooked dealings from Charleston?

I voted will YOU?

The politicians are the ones getting entitlements.
Seniors are getting insurance payments. Social Security is an insurance policy.COLA is based on the inflation rate. No COLA for two years because there is no inflation. I wonder if Orama knows any more jokes.
Tomblin seems to be the only one in the political clique that is doing anything for the people of WV. Yup I'm voting for ERT are you?

COLA this go around will be .08%
That won't buy enough gas to get me to town one time.

If a persons SS check is under a certain amount, along with what ever extra income they may have, and that amount total I believe is $1187.00 a month, have the right to file for low income extra help through the state.
The state pays your medicare premium.
That premium is at this time is $115.00 a month.
That .08% will put a whole lot of people over the top, thus saving the goverment a hell of a lot of money.
They will disqualify you if your a dollar over.
Now that above amount is based on a one person household. Ad a wife, ad a kid, the amount goes up.
Reguardless, that small .08% can still put you over the top.
In my case I will get $8.00 and medicare premiums always go up, so had that put me over the top, they the goverment would of saved well over a hundred bucks.

Go back 37 years and see how many times ERT has socked it to the people of Wv. He is doing nothing but helping to bring about higher taxes and less chances of being hired to the working people in Wv unless you are on the state or county dole.

A perfect example of whats wrong in this state. Lifer politician helping themselves to YOUR tax money and their benefit package.

If he was a bad guy 37 years ago he must have gotten religion or something and reformed. Repealing the 6% food tax is not raising taxes.

No COLA for 2012

Anonymous said...

Now the Bloomberg report has the COLA up to 3.5% for 2012.
Time will tell.

Anonymous said...

The COLA has not even been published yet.

"We use the national average wage index to "index" earnings for initial benefit computations and to determine several wage-indexed amounts that primarily affect the OASDI program.

COLAs provide annual increases in payments from OASDI and SSI programs.

Automatically increased amounts, as described above, are published in the Federal Register in late October".

Joe Mansion was the one who established doing away with the food tax. ERT has had nothing to do with another one cent tax being cut. Its a dwindle down situation where it should have never been on food to start with but once again the only people who do not pay for anything in this state are the welfare leaches.

Like all politicos ERT taking the credit when there is no credit to be taking but convincing some he is the man. Time after time he has stood in the way of laws being passed to benefit the people of Wv but pushed for laws benefiting himself as usual.

As for the COLA for the disabled and the seniors of the USA not one person should be guilty of voting for Obama, Rockefeller, or Rahall in 2012 or anyone else who thinks the way they do.

Rockefeller wants to give amnesty to the illegals in this country. He says they have the right to be here as they come in anyway. He should have been sent packing when he came to Wv but you can sell people in Wv a sack of sh!t if you can convince them its free.

I don't get it? Is there some other hidden meaning to the word illegal that I don't know about? Illegal immigrant says it all for me. What's all the conniving about the word illegal? Let their own country pay them welfare and medical and education.

Ms. Rose do you eat the school lunch? I'd be interested in what you think about it my kids say its crap and their starving!

Anonymous said...

If that's that "free" lunch you are talking about that's what you get when it's "free".
I guess when it's free it's for me doesn't apply here.
