The Federal Bank of USA which makes US dollars, a private firm or a Govt controlled firm or both?

I came to know recently that Bankers(Federal bank) will lend money to the Govt for their budget and Govt will pay interests time to time to the bank. Its also told many wars in which US took part including the current War on Terror (IRAQ) are all well planned and executed business strategies by the bankers. During war US Govt will loan more amount from the Federal Bank thereby end up paying more interest to the bank. So the Federal Bank get profited.

Who all doesn't know that when taxes are raised by Congress the consumer picks up the tab?

Everyone that thinks big business should be taxed more should think about this...Taxes are raised by whomever, the company cannot make a profit by paying the higher tax rate. The company passes along the little gift for all consumers to share equally. So who is really paying the taxes, the company or you? Oil or gas taxes for a company goes up, so does the price. This is called the dominoe effect.

Wartime deployment for Army physicians and Navy Hospital Corpsman?

I'm a premedical undergraduate student right now in college looking into medical school. I want to do the HPSP Army or Navy scholarship program, and I was wondering about the wartime deployment of physicians. After med school, residency, and hpsp program training, would they allow me to: (for Army) deploy into the field as a field surgeon or medic? (or for Navy) deploy as a Corpsman embedded into a Marine Battalion? Or would either of the two allow me to volunteer for this type of deployment?

If so, would I have to attend additional training for this type of deployment aside from the OBLC/training from HPSP, med school, and residency?

Thanks,
Thomas.

Registering to vote..?

So the primary election for California is on February 5th next year. That will be my 18th birthday. I was wondering when I could register to vote if I wanted to vote on that ballot. Could I register to vote before my birthday and then just vote on Feb 5th? Or do I wait until the actual day to register to vote?

Thanks!

Who thinks Bush has no intention of going anywhere?

Brezenski - says that there is a plan to invade Iran - so does Retired Supreme Allied Commander General Wes Clark so does Dr Paul Craig Roberts

Dr Roberts a formmer government offical under Regan is blatantly outlineing a plot of the Neo Cons to nuke Iran isolate the US and end liberty and free speech in America
General Eaton has stated that Bush's lack of stradegy is killing Americans and making the nation more vulnerable and breaking the military

Members of Congress and the media have signed an open letter warning of a false flag operation by Cheney factions - and urge military leaders not to follow ilegal orders
Presidential Order 51 outlines the ongoing anual budget of Homeland Security and wide sweeping powers over money - making Congress a shadow of it's intended use - and the appointed secratary will be in charge of the "devolution of elected authority" they run and control when and if elections happen -
Do you really believe Bush has any intent of leaving office?
