Social Security Rant
As the Baby Boomer Generation continue to get older, one of the hot topics will continue to be Social Security. Critics claim that Social Security is going bankrupt, and that it needs to be privatized as soon as possible, or people will lose their benefits. This rant examines if Social Security needs to be privatized, and if it is actually going broke. Thanks to various search engines, and thanks to the Information Superhighway, there is much data to suggest that Social Security?even at the going rate?will be able to pay full benefits at least until 2032, and some research indicates it could survive as long as 2042. Also, seventy-five percent of Social Security funding comes from the payroll tax, which guarantees that Social Security will never go broke.
The trick is?in about thirty or forty years, to come up with a system to make up the other twenty-five percent. Those who like to crunch numbers, and those who are familiar with the mathematical formula claim that a raise in the...

For Immediate Release: ??????March 3, 2004"Insourcing" Is In Vogue When It Comes to Human Resources(Princeton, NJ) Edison, New Jersey based Checkpoint HR offers a new way for mid-sized companies to manage payroll, benefits and human resources administration.The term "outsourcing" has become a double-edged sword.
To some it implies a cost-effective solution, and to others it implies a movement of jobs away, often to the detriment of many.
In fact, one of the "hot" issues in the 2004 Presidential Campaign is the claim that when US corporations "outsource" IT and service jobs overseas, American workers are the victims.Checkpoint HR, one of the nation's leading BPOs (Business Process Outsourcers), is an example of a fast growing service company that by conventional wisdom would be defined as providing an "outsourcing" solution but who actually "insources" its services to mid-market companies that seek a single source solution for payroll, benefits and human resources administration.The...

Franchising allows you to take on a proven and marketable brand and logo, without having to go through the time, effort, and money to build a name or a reputation.
