Republicans Can Be Leftists Too: Part I

Posted on May 29, 2010 | Leave a comment

I am going to have to start a new category:  Republicans Can Be Leftists Too!

See, it’s not so much the fact that I mind that the “other” team wins, it’s that they win using techniques I object too.  And when the Republicans do it, well, I can’t just let’em off the hook.

Power Hungry Leftists

At some point, the results have to implicate the system.  At some point, we have to push back from the table and see what it is that we have caused to occur.

Has the rhetoric of our elections brought about that things that we have promised?  ProtestsOr have we caused the exact opposite to occur?  In our quest to provide food for the masses, have we, in fact, brought about the opposite?  In an effort to set to work the poor, have we taken from them the opportunities that bring about job creation?  In short, is what we are doing working?

Or, perhaps, as citizens, we have to step back and begin to wonder if it’s really the aim of the government to provide in the first place?

The Impact of Obama's Health Care Reform

Posted on May 20, 2010 | 6 comments

Obama was right.  The health care industry needed, and still does need, reform.  Many many aspects of the industry are languishing under bad laws, bad incentives and bad practices.  We all need to understand that and move forward in some form of meaningful reform.  And there are ways to do it.  And there are ways NOT to do it.

Corporations: Too Big to Stop

Posted on May 17, 2010 | Leave a comment

All we here from Obama and the Left these days is that corporations are evil.  They are too big to fail.  They are only craven beasts intent on profit.  They must be stopped.  And failing that, they must be limited.

Posted on May 11, 2010 | 4 comments

One of the “gets” for Obama and the Democrats during the Health Care debate and vote is the ability for parents to keep their children on their insurance plans until those turn 27.  A 26-year-old adult child can be carried on his parent’s insurance plan.
