America Speaks The Voice Of Joyce: Periscope Tues @11 am Healthcare in America, Labor Rights & why we have a stagnant economy!

May 22, 2018

Dear Community, the last time we spoke I was asked to review “What’s happening in Healthcare “. As you recall this Administration wanted to repeal the ACA.  Instead, by eliminating the individual mandate, the Insurance programs have become more costly! Why? One reason, when young healthy people are insured, it dilutes “the sick insured population … More America Speaks The Voice Of Joyce: Periscope Tues @11 am Healthcare in America, Labor Rights & why we have a stagnant economy!

Joyce America Speaks Periscope @11am Financial Instability. History Repeats.

March 7, 2018

      I resent politicians, including our President, throwing out phony numbers to justify bad policy. 1. There are many credit unions in our country.  The largest belongs to the Navy which has $82 Billion in assets with 7+ million members.  Thousands of credit unions average $3 Billion in assets. 2. Most (1000’s) of … More Joyce America Speaks Periscope @11am Financial Instability. History Repeats.

The Voice of Joyce Community: we will have #People Power when we ban money in politics! How? Read on & let’s talk!

February 19, 2018

  No question in my mind.  If we want change, we have to ban money in politics.  How can we?  When you pay your taxes, check off an amount you wish to contribute to a campaign.  If we don’t, big business, whether it’s Opioids or Guns or Banking will control the People’s narrative. Some want … More The Voice of Joyce Community: we will have #People Power when we ban money in politics! How? Read on & let’s talk!

Joyce America Speaks Periscope @11am Wednesday: America the beautiful plus the good, the bad and the Ugly! 

October 24, 2017

Dear followers,  I am frankly overwhelmed by the events of the last five days.  I will mix the good, the bad and the ugly. However, after completing my visit in the Berkshires, I am filled with hope for our future.  Let me count the ways. As a student of history, I am always interested in … More Joyce America Speaks Periscope @11am Wednesday: America the beautiful plus the good, the bad and the Ugly! 

Joyce America Speaks Periscope @11am Wednesday We need Revenue! Say NO to budget cuts and eliminating consumer protections. 

August 29, 2017

      While Republicans and Democrats are distracted by Hurricane Harvey, who is watching the “small items” marked for destruction, deregulation and budget cuts by the Trump administration?    In a pique of disregard for Native Americans and the Public Good, the Secretary of the Interior intends to cut back on three monument designations, … More Joyce America Speaks Periscope @11am Wednesday We need Revenue!

Joyce America Speaks Periscope @11am Systems are broken, fix them & return to “good paying”jobs ! 

June 28, 2017

    Don’t break out the Champagne yet. McConnel is merely reloading and reassessing how much more he has to give to get votes. Kicking the problem down the road further out may snare some. Don’t be fooled he and Trump need this win, even if it kills all of us! Wait and See!   … More Joyce America Speaks Periscope @11am Systems are broken, fix them & return to “good paying”jobs ! 

The Voice of Joyce: Apprentice level jobs only ones available? Time to Strike for more? 

June 13, 2017

      We’ve become a Nation of serfs,  serving an entrenched Monarchy! When they say there are 3-4 million jobs out there, they mean , at the Apprentice ship level. I wonder, do apprentices get paid? If they were in the Union, they’d get 25-50% of the Union Journeyman wage scale plus benefits.   … More The Voice of Joyce: Apprentice level jobs only ones available? Time to Strike for more? 

The Voice of Joyce: Revenue Generation Now! Say No to Trump Tax Cuts….

May 24, 2017

Dear followers, in this age of austerity and uncertainty, we don’t need more pain from austerity.  The only reason for tax cuts is to reward Trump’s cronies, those Billionaires and Lobbyists in his administration and any Congressman or women who votes for an austerity budget rather then a job growth program.   I’ve developed several … More The Voice of Joyce: Revenue Generation Now! Say No to Trump Tax Cuts….

May 5, 2017

Relationships are tricky. Whether it’s family or governments , transparency, honesty, even handedness are necessary components of an honest enduring relationship.    I’ve been listening to the news today and I’m appalled by Comey’s testimony, Giuliani ‘s collusion, GOP collusion and ex security ( FBI’s) agents collusion in the stealing of our Democracy. At this … More Joyce America Speaks Periscope @11am When winning destroyed our Democracy!
