    President Bush's Proposed Health Care Tax Deduction
    Nothing is more complex and difficult for politicians to deal with in this country than health care. Well, President Bush is about to enter the fray with a new proposal.There are many controversial subjects in our country. From abortion to the death penalty to

In the area of steel the Spanish Aceralia, the French Usinor and the Luxemburg Arbed will probably join forces shortly. And earlier, the Spanish largest bank Santander took over a British bank (Abbey National).
