Government, Step Aside!

Posted on February 24, 2009 by D3 Support

I’m the first one to criticize our politicians. But the way things are set up today, it’s inevitable that ALL of them must look stupid. By “set up today” I am referring to the false assumptions most people hold about … Continue reading →

Wow–The Era of Big Government Really IS Over!

Posted on February 22, 2009 by D3 Support

I read that California’s state government is so bankrupt that it may go into federal receivership, with the U.S. government bailing it out. This will be a first in American history. California’s politicians act as if they are victims of … Continue reading →

Coming to America?

Posted on February 18, 2009 by D3 Support

Everyone who thinks our national leaders are actually good people, please raise your hands. You don’t have to think they’re evil; merely bad, or mediocre. My point is this: A nation whose government is run by mediocre or bad people … Continue reading →

“This is America”

Posted on February 11, 2009 by D3 Support

“This is America. We don’t disparage wealth,” Obama said. “But what gets people upset, and rightfully so, is executives being rewarded for failure … ” He might as well be saying: “We like wealth. We just don’t like the people … Continue reading →

“Feed Me, You Greedy SOBs!”

Posted on February 8, 2009 by D3 Support

I find the controversy over limits on executive pay interesting. I don’t care to argue either for or against limits on pay to executives who receive government funds. My argument is that in a free society, no business should receive … Continue reading →

Paradise is Coming

Posted on January 29, 2009 by D3 Support

The “stimulus” claim is based on something called the Keynesian “multiplier,” which is that each $1 of spending the government “injects” into the economy yields 1.5 times that in greater output. There’s little evidence to support this theory, but you … Continue reading →

The Folly of Recycling

Posted on January 21, 2009 by D3 Support

Recently, the local paper where I live reported that there’s a problem with curbside recycling (still voluntary here). Because of local government deficits due to the economy, it’s becoming too expensive to use separate trucks to cart paper and plastics … Continue reading →

History Isn’t Racial

Posted on January 19, 2009 by D3 Support

I don’t understand something. I’m supposed to be overjoyed because America has a (half) black President, and it’s a historic occasion. I’m supposed to water down my criticism of this new President because of the historic nature of the occasion. … Continue reading →

Want to Fix the World?

Posted on January 14, 2009 by D3 Support

It’s too ambitious to fix the world. I don’t know that any one person can. I’m not sure what ‘fix’ even means. Many things are right about the world, and many things are wrong. You make the world a better … Continue reading →

“The Little Guy”

Posted on January 5, 2009 by D3 Support

It’s always fashionable to be in favor of “the little guy.” Socialists use the little guy as justification for “spreading the wealth.” Conservatives use the little guy as justification for populism which — when translated — means a celebration of … Continue reading →

Reverence

Family Values Reconsidered

Posted on December 24, 2008 by D3 Support

As an adult, you make your own family. This is true whether you marry and have children, or not. Family are the people who deserve you, and whom you deserve. Family are people whose character and personal value are high … Continue reading →
