Imagine leaving the U.S. shores and going to another nation where your investment in a company that makes or supplies something means you are in charge, wow. Imagine thinking of investing in U.S. where federal regulations might wound your investment and you might have government preventing you from being able to sell the business or move a business began by you with investment and thousands of hours of work and people you Read More...

Dennis, regarding the WWII veterans and the postwar economic expansion, you are correct. But that military was a conscription military that was radically scaled back immediately after WWII. Today's military is an all-volunteer, highly trained, professional force that seeks to keep it's trained personnel. A stint in the military can be an asset to a young man entering the private sector. A what career is right for me in Read More...

Jeez, everyone is dumpmotivation in the workplaceg on Brett...my answer to George Slusher is, yes, the same arguments can be made about any consumer electronic device...and so, I was very very slow to buy a computer (2006) and a cell phone (2007), and I still have the same computer. I admit I used to have computers available at a workplace and now do not. Anyway the reason I bothered to read Brett's article is that I certainly Read More...

This judge is lazy. By not reviewing the merits of these cases he can avoid the work involved and he has eliminated the need to agonize over a decision making techniques he has to make. He can never be accused of not being consistent. He just treats every case the same making life easy for everyone involved, including himself. He avoids work, confrontation, decision making, and all other duties as a judge. What other job Read More...

In my own experiences with Autisim I have a nephew who was diagnosed with the condition and he is doing very well working for a municipal library and doing amazingly well dealing with the condition. One of the things I know about autisim is that it is MORE than just being unable of having social coaching skills. Autisim (at least in its more advanced forms) removes from a child any sense of fear or self preservation. The Read More...

I agree. I have said before, 1. If you work for the government, retire and take another government job, you get one pension, pick one. 2. You can retire at 50 if you like but you can't collect any pension until 65. 3. If private employees have to contribute to their pension plan, so do government workers. In other words, government contracts should mirror private industry, if private industry has to move to defined contributions Read More...

The legislative process and the debt bill has little, if anything, to do with the deficit or spending. It's about positioning for the 2012 election........and the GOP ran the table. Similiar events will be coming soon. The GOP is in the process of copyrighting all the key issues, with the balanced budget amendment idea now in the bag, along with spending cuts without tax calculator 2012 increases. The Democrats are being Read More...

Social Security is an annutiy pension type system where not every recipient is expected to get back exactly what they put in. Social Security is solvent for many years to come and did not contribute to the current deficit. It must by law invest only in treasury obligations and for many years now the Social Security social security tax ratees have subsidized the general fund taxpayers and masked the true deficit of the USA.

To say that Facebook or Twitter are nothing but entertaining time wasters-wasters is to look at only one facet of the technology. I think just about anyone would agree that you can waste a lot of time on the telephone, but you wouldn't say the telephone is only an entertaining time-waster. I've seen people spend all day trading emails about their fantasy sports picks or gossiping, too. It's all in how you use it. If a technology Read More...

Bob - You too should ask for a car tax refund on that tinfoil hat: It's either blocking your hearing and eyesight or it's causing massive memory loss. America's Second Great Depression was, according to Ben Bernanke (your hero's Chairman of the Federal Reserve), quite clearly showed that it's roots directly attributable to 1994 when Bill Clinton appointed Jaime Gorelick to run Fannie Mae and Franklin Raines to run Freddie Read More...
