Which of the two LA Mayoral candidates deserves to be the mayor in 2013

Which of the two LA Mayoral candidates deserves to be the mayor in 2013

The candidate that deserves to win is the one that has the people of Los Angeles interest at heart.

The candidate that can unify the City in a common goal for transparency and sincerely promote the city to the business world.

The candidate that can encompass the various factions within the city for a coalition government of all the parties, thereby representing all the people of Los Angeles.

The candidate that instills hope and confidence in the voters that his administration will improve the city’s financial and economic condition.

Do you think any of the run-off candidates has what it takes to do that?

Draiman says that voters deserve to hear from all Mayoral candidates on the ballot

It is anti democratic to ignore candidates who have earned their place to be on the ballot.

In the current political mood and the growing apathy by voters it is imperative that every candidate who is officially on the ballot to be heard by the public.

Ignoring these candidates only reinforces to the voting public that money and not the most qualified candidate is given a chance to run for office with a level playing field.

The deck is stacked against a candidate who is not willing to be swayed by money and political influence. This is a sad day for our Democracy.

The Media and the various organizations who host a candidate forum – debate have a great responsibility to present unbiased information to the public, of all the candidates that appear on the ballot with a level playing field.

To ignore some candidates is a distortion of our Democratic oath and they are practicing the very same unacceptable behavior that they are trying to correct in today’s political scene.

By ignoring candidates who are on the ballot the voters are deprived of critical information and opinions of all the candidates on the ballot. It is a disservice to the community at large.

Angelenos have the right to an open and balanced election process resting on the values of our democracy, which is open to all candidates.

We have to show to the public how real democracy at work – by presenting all the candidates, not just the select few.

The right to vote is the right that protects all other rights. That includes all official candidates.

"Promise yourself to be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. - Draiman

"Promise yourself to be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet.
To make all your friends feel that there is something in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.
To think only of the best, to work only for the best and expect only the best.
To be enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile.
To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, to strong for fear and too happy to permit the presence of trouble."

Out of business moved to China – YJ Draiman

 

 

Goods produced in China are inferior to American made goods.

 

Most goods made in China have to be purchased 3 to 4 times to last as long as American goods. So, you think you are saving money by buying Chinese made goods, the answer is no.

 

As a consumer you should insist on products made in the USA, it is better quality, it retains and creates jobs in the U.S. while keeping the economy going and produces revenues for the government which enables them to provide services to its population.

 

Producing goods and services in the U.S. is Creating and Sustaining Successful Growth.

 

Many foreigners make millions exporting products from China to the USA. An American businessman was trying to export products from the USA to China.

He found it impossible. And this is why our country the USA is failing. It is because we allow this unfairness. Many Americans are tired of paying for the infrastructure so the Chinese can sell their wares virtually tax free in the USA and Americans are paying for the roads and everything else to make that possible.

 

 

The Great Society is a place where every child can find knowledge to enrich his mind and to enlarge his talents. It is a place where the city of man serves not only the needs of the body and the demands of commerce but the desire for beauty and the hunger for community. It is a place where men are more concerned with the quality of their goals than the quantity of their goods.”

 

“Those who control the energy supply control whole continents”.

How to expedite America's economic recovery – YJ Draiman r1

 

The U.S. and the city of Los Angeles economy could expedite its economic revival by accelerating its hydrocarbon exploration and development. A national policy to enhance the development of hydrocarbon will turn the U.S. into a net exporter of hydrocarbon products. The U.S. must also build additional refining capacity at strategic locations in the U.S. to alleviate fuel shortages and increase its export of refined fuel and natural gas. Allocating a percentage of the revenues for the further development of renewable energy, energy efficiency and the development of water resources and efficiencies, including rainwater harvesting and grey water utilization etc. will further fuel Americas economic revival.

 

“Those who control the energy supply control whole continents”.

 

“Those who control the water sources control life”

 

Another avenue to boost the U.S. economy would be to initiate a program for Made in America products. This would require certain tax benefits to the manufacturer of products in America. Any unemployed American, who returns to the workforce, reduces the dependency for financial and social support by the government. Thus it turns the worker into a revenue generator for the government, while the employee’s earning are spent on goods and services which boosts the economy further.

 

The city of Los Angeles must make it easy for businesses to thrive. This will create employment and increase revenues to the government and it will create the multiplier effect.

 

Multiplier effect definition:
An effect in economics in which an increase in spending produces an increase in national income and consumption greater than the initial amount spent. For example, if a corporation builds a factory, it will employ construction workers and their suppliers as well as those who work in the factory. Indirectly, the new factory will stimulate employment in laundries, restaurants, and service industries and the housing industry which employs builders, plumbers, carpenters, electricians, etc.

 

Increasing bureaucracy, taxes and fees depresses the economy, reduces business development, which in turn reduces consumer spending and as a result reduces revenues to the government.

Think About It

Think About It
Think About It A Member of Congress was seated next to a little girl on an air plane so he turned to her and said,
"Do you want to talk? Flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow  passenger." The little girl, who had just started to read her book, replied to the total stranger,
"What would you want to talk about?" "Oh, I don't know," said the congressman. "How about global  warming, universal health care, or stimulus packages?" as he smiled smugly. "OK," she said. "Those  could be interesting topics but let me ask you a question first.
A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat  the same stuff - grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, but  a horse produces clumps. Why do you suppose that is?" The legislator, visibly surprised by the  little girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says, "Hmmm, I have no idea."
To which the little  girl replies, "Do you really feel qualified to discuss global warming, universal health care, or the  economy, when you don't know shit?" And then she went back to reading her book.

Do we need an ethical bailout to go along with the financial one?

Do we need an ethical bailout to go along with the financial one?

Do we need an ethical bailout to go along with the financial one?

Let us discuss the need for honesty and integrity as the basic principle of leadership. Defines quality leadership as a process beyond technical competence. Successful leaders continually demonstrate honesty and integrity as an essential element of their professional fabric; a lack of commitment to the principle renders all other skills meaningless. Depicts honesty and integrity as essential elements of human behavior that promote and support quality relationships. Defines honesty and integrity in the context of building trust and maintaining credibility. Provides a sound philosophy that increases the probability for long-term success and professional fulfillment.

The matter raised "legitimate and genuine concerns", adding: "My concern ... is that without integrity and legitimacy and honesty, and then Government cannot function. This must now be settled, otherwise it saps at the very heart of what is the highest office – and the highest office-holder."

Is honesty for suckers?

— A worldwide recession sets in when it turns out that a vast subprime mortgage system was built on a foundation of fraud.

— Government officials are convicted of fraud and misappropriation of funds and backdoor deals.

— Cheating is rampant in high schools and colleges.

— And in sports? The same deal. Doping scandals, cheating, chemical and otherwise, pervades football, baseball and other sports.

— Wall Street is being manipulated by corporate America bilking investors out of billions of dollars.

If so many people are cheating, how can honest people play by the rules and not be at a disadvantage — in school, at work, in sports, in business?

Do we need an ethical bailout to go along with the financial one?

Are you a chump if you play by the rules?
