Sun Sets on Washington D.C.

A million businesses may close. A million Americans may lose their homes. A million fathers may wonder how they will feed their children.

Big Government Can’t Fix Immorality

It is one thing to attempt legislation that encourages liberty, individual responsibility, and limited government, while being true to God’s Word; it is quite another to support legislation that promotes servitude, dependence, and massively grows government that is driven by whatever morality seems to be most popular at the time.

Internet Tax: One More Effort to Snuff Out Freedom

Governments at the state and local level, particularly in places like California but many other states as well, are all about the transfer of wealth, paying off huge sums and benefit packages to “public servants” such as teachers who don’t teach, and making sure that people become dependent on government services or handouts rather than even having a chance at functioning in a free market economy.

Is big government anarchy?

If it’s anarchy you oppose, then you ought to reconsider your position of using Big Government to force people to do things they don’t want to do. This policy is actually leading us to more anarchy, not less.

Forget Retirement And Retirement Savings

A ponzi scheme is defined as “a fraudulent investment operation that pays returns to its investors from their own money or the money paid by subsequent investors, rather than from profit earned by the individual or organization running the operation”.

Individual versus the state theme drives “The Hunger Games” to $500 million

We are governed by the Obama administration, which incessantly, and all too successfully, seeks to dictate nearly every aspect of American life, including our most fundamental choices in cars, insurance, banks, food, energy and medicine. The movie’s themes seem sampled from the President’s ubiquitous campaign speeches and media appearances: the brotherhood of man—a moral duty to serve the state—the slogan that “we’re all in this together” as an excuse to sacrifice the one for the sake of the many. – Capitalism Magazine
