Congressional Candidate Paul Partyka Supports Audit of The Federal Reserve, “Truth Commission” on American Economy
WINTER SPRINGS - Paul Partyka, Democratic candidate for Congress in Florida’s 24th District, said he fully supports an independent audit of the U.S. Federal Reserve and would go one step further to create a public “Truth Commission” to learn how the American economy collapsed and who was at fault.
“We are recovering from the worst economic disaster since the Great Depression and unemployment is the highest it has been in generations,” Partyka said. “It is apparent that we will endure unacceptably high unemployment for many years to come, at a tremendous cost all of us will have to shoulder in the form of higher taxes and fewer career opportunities,” he said.
“All told, the cost of the American economic collapse is far greater than the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11. Millions of Americans have lost their jobs. Millions of American families are losing their homes. Millions of American lives have been disrupted. This is not part of a naturally-occurring economic cycle. We need to learn how it came about, who was at fault, and how we can prevent it from ever occurring again,” Partyka said.
Partyka said he fears that financial industry reform measures currently proposed will not go far enough.
“Petty partisanship and ill-informed political ideology are polluting our nation’s financial reform efforts and what appears to be emerging now will do little to prevent future recessions,” Partyka said.
“We need strong leadership in Washington, and we need representatives who put the people first, not the speculators and the profiteers. I want to provide that leadership,” Partyka said.

Congressional Candidate Paul Partyka Slams BP for Slow Response to Gulf Oil Disaster, Urges Long Term Solutions
WINTER SPRINGS - Paul Partyka, Democratic candidate for Congress in Florida’s 24th District, said oil giant BP must be held responsible for the Gulf oil disaster and criticized company officials for their handling of the crisis.
“I believe BP’s strategy was designed to save their oil well, not the Gulf of Mexico, not the environment, not the fisheries, not the rookeries, not the beaches, and not the thousands of American families who will suffer from this disaster for the next generations,” Partyka said.
“It is clear that BP’s estimates of the oil flow rate were ridiculously low, and it is just as clear that their initial efforts were to control the flow and not to shut it down. Now, we have to pay the price for their strategy,” he said.
“The ultimate cost of this strategy will be borne by American families for generations to come. BP’s calculations were wholly economic, wholly self-serving, and we Americans will pay a far greater price than BP can ever compensate,” Partyka said.
America’s growing dependence on non-sustainable energy sources set the stage for the Gulf oil disaster, Partyka said.
“We are the world’s greatest energy consumer and the world is approaching peak oil capacity,” Partyka said. “If we continue this course we will eventually find ourselves at war with the rest of the world over oil,” he said.
“I believe America deserves a more honorable destiny. I believe America can lead the world toward cleaner, safer, more sustainable energy sources that mean prosperity for all Americans, and for the rest of the world as well. The way ahead will not be easy, but it is the right way, and our present course leads ultimately to disaster,” Partyka said.
“We have the resources to end our energy dependence,” Partyka said. “We have the technology.
We must have the will. America has a moral obligation to end our addiction to oil. That is our future, it is our children’s future, and it is the only honorable future for America,” he said.

The LR Team at Stirling Sotheby's International Realty Foresees Bright Future for Windermere/Dr. Phillips area
ORLANDO – The LR Team at Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty’s Windermere/Dr. Phillips office – Dan Natoli, Carolyn Burgiel and Darren Iozia – foresee a bright future for the Windermere/Dr. Phillips area.
“This may be the first luxury market area of homes over $1 million in the Orlando area to recover from the housing market collapse, said Roger Soderstrom, founder and owner of Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty.
Three zip codes – 34786, 32819 and 32836 – are seeing the largest increase in sales of million dollar homes, Soderstrom said. That conclusion is based on the statistics provided by the Central Florida Multiple Listing Service (MLS).
Through May of this year, 41 homes priced at more than $1 million have sold in the area, and in 2009, only 21 million dollar plus homes sold, according to the MLS. This is a 100 percent increase in this upper tier market range.
The LR Team at Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty has identified 238 homes in the area currently offered for sale that are priced at $1 million or more.
“That’s less than a 30-month inventory compared to over a 60-month supply in 2009,” Soderstrom added.
Carolyn Burgiel, a partner with the LR Team stated “The MLS data supports that the average sale price of million dollar plus homes in 2010 was $1,758,763, up from $1,693,716 in 2009. However, per-square-foot prices were down in 2010 at $278 per square foot compared to $322 per square foot in 2009.”
Burgiel said Stirling Sotheby’s is entertaining buyer inquiries from Europe, China, the UK, and Ireland as well as U.S. buyers relocating, downsizing and moving up.
We think the Windermere/Dr. Phillips area is positioned for a very strong recovery,” Burgiel said. “We won’t see 2005 prices again, and that’s part of the reason for the interest in the area,” she said.
