Two Peas In The Pod

Love her or hate her, no one can question the ambition of Hillary Clinton. The woman set her sights very high and despite the accusations of corruption, and the e-mail scandal, she almost made it to the highest political office in the land. Two attempts at being president, and no wins. At least she can … Continue reading

Checks And Balances

The creators of the US Constitution should be considered a group of wise men.   But in today’s ideologically charged atmosphere, where political correctness and Cultural Marxism reign, historical revision and reinterpretation have reduced Benjamin Franklin, James Madison and the rest as the supreme oppressors of the world.   Even though they helped to create … Continue reading

To Rig Or Not To Rig An Election

Everyone knows that this presidential election will be one of the most contentious in U.S. History. The ideologies are extremely different: Donald Trump wants to bring back the lost industrial base to the United States while Hillary Clinton wants to continue the policies of the Obama administration and add a few tweaks of her own … Continue reading

The Social Contract Is Broken

The job of government in a democratic country is to protect the rights of its citizens. At this point, though, it doesn’t seem like that’s happening. The rights we have are eroding at a quick pace and we have less economic opportunity and freedom. Citizens are willing to give up their rights for safety and freebies rather than be … Continue reading

Do Politicians Only Look out For Themselves?

The Bill of Rights was added to the U.S. Constitution in 1791. But it only took seven short years for the U.S. Government to attempt its first assault on citizen’s rights.   And the U.S. Government won.   The Alien and Sedition Acts were passed in 1798; just in time to protect the Federalist party … Continue reading

Who Does The Second Amendment Apply To?

The Second Amendment does not apply only to the militia or the US military.   Anyone who tries to give that argument is giving a politically correct argument that has no value to the unlimited, or limited, ownership of firearms.   The anti-second amendment folks say that guns should be illegal because too many are in … Continue reading

More Choices, More Freedom

  Who doesn’t like to have choices? Except for the indecisive.   There are millions in all areas of life: candy bars, hairdos, beliefs, personalities, cars, jobs, professions, tv sets, desires, music, places to travel and the means to do it, pets, toilet paper, kitchen décor, flavors of coffee, and on and on. It’s the variety … Continue reading

Causes of the American Revolution And How It Relates To Today

If there is one recurring theme throughout human history it’s that attempts at economic hegemony have a tendency to lead to wars. Rome versus Carthage, Allies versus Axis, the Spanish-American War are some examples. The American Revolution was no different. England, in debt from fighting the French and Indian War, tried to force the American … Continue reading

Real Money versus Fake Paper Currency

NOTE:  This article was written to give young people some basic knowledge on money, or currency. Many central banks around the world have printed money recklessly over the past 10 years or more. And the lack of knowledge we have about what is real money and what is not is causing us to see the … Continue reading

What Are Our Rights?!

One of the problems that Americans face is that we don’t know what our rights are.  Yes, everyone knows that freedom of speech is part of the first amendment in the Bill of Rights. But ask anyone if they can list any of the other rights we have. Most Americans can’t. That’s why we’re slowly … Continue reading
