unless your family earns over $250,000, reform costs you nothing Nonsense, Obama and the Democrats in congress have proposed all sorts of tax increases that hit people who earn well under $250K, including proposals in the bills currently moving through congress. And the fact that the plan will increase the deficit will create pressure for future tax increases. , if enacted, is estimated to increase the income of the average family of four by about $10,000 in 2030. Is estimated by who? More importantly what basis is there for this estimate? Seems like some figure pulled out of thin air, perhaps with some seemingly sophisticated but bogus or at least unsubstantiated justification. The author of the piece doesn't even provide the bogus justification, or any source, she just throws the number out there as if it meant something.

CDC: 1 in 5 Kids Likely Had H1N1 Flu This Month Associated Press ATLANTA – About 1 in 5 U.S. children had a flu-like illness earlier this month--and most of those cases likely were swine flu, according to a new government health survey. About 7% of surveyed adults said they had had a flu-like illness, the survey found. The information comes from a household survey of more than 14,000 adults done in the first 11 days of October. The adults were asked if they had a fever or other flu-like symptoms in the past week; a smaller number were asked about their children. The survey was done by telephone and there was no medical confirmation of their reports. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced the results Wednesday at a medical meeting in Atlanta. Swine flu is widespread throughout the country, and the virus is causing more illness now that it has at any time since it was first identified in April. In people ages 5 to 64, there have been as many flu-related hospitalizations in the last six weeks as there usually are in an entire flu season, said Lyn Finelli, a CDC flu surveillance official. Also, the number of swine flu deaths in children since the start of September roughly equals the number in the first four months of the pandemic, Finelli said. For most people, swine flu has been a mild illness, perhaps very mild, CDC officials believe. There are cases without symptoms, "and maybe quite a few of those,'' said Nancy Cox, a CDC flu expert. Millions of Americans have been infected, CDC officials estimate.
