A Place Without Reason

Assuming the caller is on the level, the following 2 minute-plus video reveals the American decline in shocking fashion. Happy listening:

 “Obama doesn’t have a clue”

Three Strikes and We’re Out

Thomas Paine sounds off…again:

Self-reliance has a long American pedigree with roots in the first permanent English settlement in North America, Jamestown. Not long after landing in the New World in 1607, the intrepid colonists began dying like flies. Captain John Smith recognized that only a supreme effort by everyone would guarantee the survival of the community. Smith, a master [...]

The Death of Personal Responsibility

Of all the wrong lessons being learned as our government spends multiple trillions on various bailout schemes, the worst is this: You are not responsible for the mess you are in.

When Help Hurts

The deadline for closing the last remaining FEMA trailer parks in Louisiana is fast approaching and, as I predicted some days ago, bleeding heart reports are beginning to hit the wires. Just today an Associated Press story was picked up by my local paper, The Press-Enterprise.

The Dependent Will Be Disappointed

 At a recent California Republican Assembly meeting, State Senator Dennis Hollingsworth revealed a dirty little secret concerning California’s $14 billion budget shortfall. The deficit exists despite steadily increasing revenues flowing into state coffers. That’s right; do not adjust your antenna. Golden State tax revenue increased in 2007 by 4%, but the spendthrifts in Sacramento budgeted for 7% growth, [...]

Welfare’s Debilitating Hold

Until recently, most discussions of government assistance of the poor focused on the positive benefits derived from legislated generosity. Giving folks a hand up (not a handout), a head start, equal opportunity, and a chance to pursue the American dream took their turns as phrase-of-the-moment justifications for housing subsidies, food stamps, and welfare checks. Now fifty years into America’s greatest social experiment, [...]
