Publisher, The Right Post, entrepreneur and business strategistThere was a very interesting article in the WSJ recently that discussed what’s going on in Colorado Springs. Like virtually all local governments, they are severely strapped for cash. So they have taken a number of city projects and asked the community to support them directly, either with time or money. That seems both smart and logical. The interesting part is that the vast majority of the projects ultimately cannot find enough support or backers to continue them. And THAT begs the obvious and burning question: If nobody ultimately cares enough to support these projects, WHY WERE THEY STARTED IN THE FIRST PLACE? Read the rest of this entry »

Not sure why it is, but journalists (even conservative journalists), as well as Republicans have a very hard time understanding what the Tea Party movement is about.

Millions upon millions of Americans feel as though the country is heading in the wrong direction. Unfortunately, there’s no one single problem (or one single person) on which to pin the blame.
Government spending is at an all-time high, and America is trillions of dollars in debt. The tax burden on American families, rich and poor, is unbearable, and the hard-working middle class seems to pay the highest price. The borders remain unsecured, yet the right to defend oneself if necessary comes under scrutiny. Even as the beacon of freedom for the entire world, Americans are less free than ever before.

From the beginning, the message about health care reform has been a mixed one. On the one hand, Washington has claimed that the reform is all about saving costs. On the other hand, it has wanted to implement the once very liberal notion of universal health care. So the question quickly arises, how can you reduce costs if you are going to pick up the obligations of 30 million new health care customers? Read the rest of this entry »
