Looking at our economy, both now and in the foreseeable future, can be a depressing exercise. The current administration and the President’s party offer nothing to alleviate that depression. We see people all around who are happy to live on what government provides, and naive enough to believe that government can provide everything they’ve promised. … Continue reading →

President Obama’s field trip to Wall Street yesterday can be explained this way: It’s like telling your wife, “You’ve really let yourself go, now get over here and give daddy a little sumpin sumpin.” Both bills, he said, represent “significant improvement on the flawed rules” that are in place today, “despite the furious efforts of … Continue reading →

Listing to Rush while I’m at lunch. He played a clip of President Obama that is just astounding in it’s cluelessness. I will find the actual quote as soon as possible, but here is my take. The president placed the blame for joblessness on business, ignoring the role government plays. His basic premise is that … Continue reading →

Blogging, for the great majority of us, is not a money making endeavor. In fact it can be a financial negative. If you have your own hosting and domain it is going to cost a bit of money. Not break-the-kids-college-fund money, but some. Yes, this post is an advertisement. Actually, two. The first is this; … Continue reading →

Gov. Sarah Palin has an excellent article in the Washington Post looking at the President’s “Cap And Tax” legislation. I am deeply concerned about President Obama’s cap-and-trade energy plan, and I believe it is an enormous threat to our economy.

Living In Government Housing

Living in government housing used to be limited to military personnel (I still remember visiting my uncle and his family at Ft. Dix) and, what we used to call, “the projects”. Not anymore. I bet you thought that if you bought a house, you actually own it and can, with reasonable exceptions, do with it … Continue reading →
