One Year After The Stimulus: Less Jobs, More Taxes, Bigger Government

By tmartin on February 22, 2010

One year after the launch of Obama’s stimulus package it has become painfully obvious that the stimulus’s declared goals have all failed: Unemployment has grown to 10%, the economy is worse off, and tax hikes are on the way. Only one thing was stimulated: big government – it is much bigger and more destructive now. [...]

America’s Strength Is Freedom, Not Government

By tmartin on January 20, 2009

Big Government and the Status Quo

By Mike Cuneo on June 12, 2008

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.
