Corporate Greed vs. Political Greed

I honestly am worried about our country as are many others on this site and nationwide. The difference is that the masses are leading us towards more of the same if not worse, while the smart sensible opinions rooted in logic and sound theories that can be applied to real life situations are being ignored, [...]

“Change” or More of the Same?

Senators Obama and McCain have completed a series of “debates” and the election is fast approaching.
The buzzword of the campaigns has been “change”. Obama wants to enact change to help the middle class, McCain wants to change the Republican party back into what it once was, and both candidates vow to change the greed [...]

Questions for the Candidates

While more than 90% of Americans know who John McCain and Barack Obama are, third-party candidates like Chuck Baldwin, Ralph Nader, Cynthia McKinney and Bob Barr are virtually ignored by the mainstream media and prohibited from participating in the televised Presidential debates.
The current election is falling into the same old routine. There are two candidates [...]

How to fix America

by Mike Cuneo
Whether you think we are in a recession, depression, contraction, correction, or whatever, the key point is, our economy is headed for a complete and utter collapse in 5-7 years if we don’t act now. Bailing out companies that are built on worthless assets might stave off the trouble for a little while [...]

Freedom Starts At Home

Ron Paul’s writings and speeches have assisted me in finding faults with myself and my own logical processes, and maybe a way to fix them and make myself a better person. So today I’ll take a break from bashing the government – instead, I’ll spend some my energy on what each and everyone of us [...]

A Call For Transparency

From “The Revolution: A Manifesto” by Ron Paul:
Judge Andrew Napolitano recently asked, ‘Why should government agents spy on us? They work for us. How about we spy on them? On cops when they arrest and interrogate people or contemplate suspending freedom; on prosecutors when they decide whom to prosecute and what evidence [...]

Let The Markets Run Free

Subsidies, tax breaks, tax hikes, government run monopolies, the list goes on and on.  It seems like the government simply doesn’t want people to prosper, given that (partial) list of disincentives towards growth they constantly are pushing for and enforcing every day.
The real reason the government hates free markets is that, unlike most voting Americans [...]

Big Government and the Status Quo

Incentives. They are everywhere, affecting everything we say and do, from shopping for groceries to what kind of car we drive to where we live and so many more. Incentives provoke thought and progress and keep us moving forward as individuals, small communities, and a country as a whole.
Sadly, the federal government today has no [...]

America’s Stance On Gambling

All around me, whether I’m going to the store to buy groceries, watching a baseball game, or listening to my favorite radio station, I hear Gus. Who, you ask, is Gus? Well, he’s the “Second Most Famous Groundhog in Pennsylvania” (Trailing only Puxatony Phil and just ahead of, well, who knows?). [...]

Why Social Security Doesn’t Work

How will history judge Social Security in America? I predict Social Security will be viewed as a “program that helped many older Americans offset the high cost of living, provided important supplemental income for many Americans, and generally was a success”.
And that can’t be further from the truth. In reality, Social Security is…
