Officials with the Road Commission for Oakland County (RCOC) are available to give educational presentations about the upcoming May 5 ballot initiative that would provide additional funding for Michigan’s roads and increase the state’s sales tax – Proposition 1.
Prop. 1, placed on the ballot by the state Legislature, would provide a long-term solution to Michigan’s road-funding crisis while also eliminating the sales tax on fuel in the state. At the same time, the initiative would raise Michigan’s sales tax rate from 6 percent to 7 percent and dedicate the revenue from the additional 1 percent primarily to Michigan’s schools and local communities.
“We would welcome the opportunity to meet with any organization in Oakland County to provide education about Prop. 1,” RCOC Managing Director Dennis Kolar explained. “We will not advocate for or against the initiative, but we will explain what it is, how it would work and what will happen if it passes and if it does not pass.”
Kolar noted that he and the three RCOC Commissioners, Ron Fowkes, Eric Wilson and Greg Jamian, are available to make presentations as are other key members of the RCOC staff. “This is an important issue for Michigan and for Oakland County,” he explained. “So, we are making our selves available anywhere and anytime there is a group that would like us to speak.”
To schedule an RCOC official to discuss Prop. 1 with your group or organization, contact Peggy Pentecost in the RCOC Managing Director’s Office at 248-645-2000, ext. 2252 or via e-mail at ppentecost@rcoc.org.
About Sarah Hovis
The hospitals don’t take payments for their services. We have a insurance companies who take payments from a great portion of Americans, all year around, just in case they get sick. The insurance companies pay the hospitals that one time payment. The insurance companies own the hospitals. They pretty much charge $10 for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, because they are the ones receiving and paying this amount for that service. The medical procedures and patient care expenses are inflated enormously. The insurance company, who pays for these services and own the hospitals, is charging these amounts so that you can’t afford to pay what they ask for and you do have to depend on their insurance policy of let’s say $50 a month coverage. I ask, where does this deductible come into the picture and why ? I am on medicare. I hurt my wrist awhile ago. I have a doctor bill of a couple thousand dollars that I cannot pay, because of a deductible. The entire country has health insurance; your workplace offers it with a salary, the government offers it to the poor. We all pay the insurance industry money every month. They have a lot more coming in than they have going out. You fee grateful that your insurance covers a $2,000 MRI test, while they are the ones who own the hospital and the doctors who only take their insurance… and the ones who set the price they are willing to pay themselves. Obama Health care is just another Insurance Industry. Health insurance is part of Corporate America. We have the Corporations that own this monster called Corporate America. We have the government who are sometimes considered the corporate puppets, we have the American population.. lower, middle and upper… different classifications of slaves. Chasing carrots and running from the fear of a God who doesn’t exist. A Christian Nation no longer in Love with their first Love. A telephone is a one time purchase. You get enough people who have purchased this same device and they all pay into the same system. The cost goes down to tap into a telephone line when you have more than one person on the line. Although, it gets kinda confusing when more than two people are on the same line at once. A computer, with a fax, modem, that connects to a telephone line is a one time purchase. Enough people have bought one of these devices. The supply is there, the demand is there, the consumption is big; the cost should go down. The cost is less than one red cent, per person, when all those people are using their computer on that party line. There is less confusion than when they did it with a telephone, because we are reading our thoughts on a screen rather than hearing them on a speaker in an ear piece in you telephone. Corporate America. The staples or our lives, like Education, communication, transportation, housing, food … shouldn’t cost so much because of supply, demand, consumption and the American way of We the People. But, Corporate America, who is probably a big part of the World Economy, want to keep us in a Slave mentality paying with our flesh and blood, working from paycheck to paycheck while they still own everything. Puppets and Slaves and a New World Order. What is that ferrari testarossa, ten bedroom house, doctors degree in whatever, all that plastic going to mean when they start charging you $25.00 for a glass of water at a local diner ?
If I had four pencils and you had seven apples, how many pancakes are on the roof ? Purple, Aliens don’t wear hats. Purple Aliens don’t wear hats. Eggs are not hatched, Chickens are Cooked. I will drink the blood of Saints and Eat the Flesh of Demons, and they shall know that I am God. I am Satan. I am Muhammad asad. I am Kristopher Philip Kupka. I Love Jan Seery, my son. Forever.
Sometimes I remember people from what I call past lives. Life experiences through pretty much the same people and settings, just different versions based on the choices you or I make. I remember a lot of people from these past lives. You may be one of those people. But, I will not tell you. Although, when you said, “thanx for helping me” on the bus, it jogged my memory of someone you might have been in one of those past life experiences. Your still you, but we might have had a different experience at that bus stop with that man and a couple others. When I wrote you my name @gmail.com, it was exactly like I did it in one of those past lives, just for another reason and without the @gmail.com suffix. That is my heartfelt memory of who you are now and who you are then. This and That, Tit and Tat, Now and Then, Here and There… those are some fun things to ponder.
A line can be divided 360 times or 500 times. At each one of those divisions or dashes, you will have a degree of separation at a common point between these dashes. Four corners on each dash. the top corners of the dashes are where we separate the dashes. The bottom corners stay joined. We have 360 degrees of separation on a 6′ line, making each degree of separation to be .017′. If we have 500 degrees of separation on a line of 6′, then each degree of separation is .012′ So, I asked that college educated B.U.M.stead how many degrees are in a circle, he said, “360”. He lives in a 360 degree circle that he probably defines with a number used to describe an ellipse.
The triangle found in that 3.115 ellipse is with two legs with a length of 3 and 4, the hypotenuse is 5.
(3)(3)+(4)(4)=(5)(5) 9+16=25. That is not an equation for a circle, but an ellipse. The one hundred thousand digits of Pi are not numbers indicating numbers for a circle, but an ellipse.
The number used to describe a circle is 3
The number used to describe an ellipse is 3.14
The math equation (a)(a)+(b)(b)=(c)(c); the Pythagorean Theorem does not work on any triangle found on a Cartesian plane that fits within a circle. There is a triangle found in the ellipse defined by the number 3.115
The 3,4,5 triangle appears in a 3.115 ellipse. (3)(3)+(4)(4)=(5)(5)
Those are numbers that work when using the Pythagorean Theorem; Legs of 3 and 4 with a hypotenuse of 5. The Pythagorean Theorem does not work in a Perfect circle of 3. 3 is the number to describe a circle. The decimal and numbers following the number 3 are used to define a place on the Cartesian plane at which a circular shape called an ellipse hits the y axis.
