@Jarrod KohlMetro Detroit (my rental portfolio is here)Purchase: $80k-$130kRent: $1200-$1500ROI: Double DigitCash flow: couple hundred/monthAppreciation: Double digit (for past 10 years, will gladly send data)Location: C, B- (suburbs and certain markets)We have over a dozen Fortune 500 companies just in Metro Detroit with huge Healthcare and Auto industries.

I saw a news article last week that documented (8) health care industry lobbyist for each member of congress.

Health Care and Small Business Suffer Under Government Controls: Before Hitler, we had very good medical care.

It does not make sense.Specific example - the tax on Medical Device manufacturers included in the Health Care Reform bill.How does imposing a tax on a manufacturer (or anywhere along the supply chain increase the supply of anything at a lower price?

Without the majority of people knowing what a party or candidate stands for, they really cant compete.Having hated the Republican party when they were running the show under Bush (thats what made me start caring about politics at all), and then being lied to by Obama and seeing more that I dont like from the Left (forced health care and other socialism); people like me are left with only 3rd party options or just apathy.

I'd definitely call your dept. of health care services or the dept that issued the lien and 1) find out the total amount due on the recorded lien and interest rate (if any) and 2) make sure you find out if there is an open account and if other service charges are accruing that have not yet turned into a lien.

Faster, cheaper ways to do accounting, engineering, designing, investments, health care, etc.

Keeping your head above water is one thing but without some serious sacrifices, how will you ever help the kids through college or finance your own retirement and healthcare when you get older?

This is awesome...First we agree on how to handle health care, and now we completely agree on this as well!
