    Obama Book Titles

    Obama- Yes We Can't! The story of how a candidate for Presidential office vowed to change the system...and didn't. Sounds familiar, huh?

    Is Iran trying to develop a missile that could reach America?

    You know, I think that Iran having a Nuclear weapon or not is irrelevant. What we should perhaps be doing is looking at why (supposedly) Iran would want to use weapons against us or anyone else, for that matter. I believe that it is our interventionist policy that has led to anti-United States...

    Your take on Homosexual Marriage

    I'm all for Same Sex Marriage but I don't think it's is any business of the Federal Government. I think it should be a state issue. My reasons for supporting SSM and it being a state issue is because I believe that people should have the right to marry whomever, and that states should retain the...

    What should be the main focus of the Presidential Election of 2012

    Oh, and a personal attack is always a sign of a failing argument, just sayin'.

    What should be the main focus of the Presidential Election of 2012

    I don't think I'm making a "simplistic conclusion[] about extremely complicated situations." The Federal Reserve held interest rates very low as a response to the 1920-1921 depression; they saw the need to "save the economy" and thus tried to expand the money supply. What this actually did was...

    Patriots draft Dont'a Hightower and Chandler Jones

    I'm just glad they're actually addressing some of their needs, but i was disappointed when they took a safety in the second round when they already have good safeties. They need more solid corners.

    A beer with Romney or Obama

    I'd rather neither. Romney would want champagne and Obama would force me to keep drinking, against my will....and kill me with his powers under the NDAA if I tried to leave

    Are the rich lazier than the poor?

    I think that most people are not lazy at all. Most people, be it rich or poor, work hard during their lifetimes. It is the two extremes-the excessively rich and those who collect welfare without the intent of finding a job- that are lazy. If anything, the poor are less lazy than the rich due to...

    What should be the main focus of the Presidential Election of 2012

    I still am confused as to why the so called "likely" Republican nominee Mitt Romney and the Incumbent Obama are somewhat silent on what should be the main focus of this election, that being Monetary policy. I'm not talking about budgets and deficits, I'm talking about the Debt and the Federal...

    P-a-t-h-e-t-i-c!!!!!

    I agree that chemistry is an issue, but don't forget...they have no bullpen. I mean, sometimes you get a few good innings out of the cast, but the starting pitching has been average thus far, and you can't really rely on the relief cast to get anything done. Which puts more pressure on guys like...

    Patriots draft Dont'a Hightower and Chandler Jones

    What do people think of the two picks tonight for the pats? I liked the Hightower pick because I think they need another solid linebacker that can play into their shifting schemes, which I think he can. I don't know too much about Chandler Jones, but i've heard he's a pretty good edge rusher...

    The Minimum Wage Fallacy

    I'm saying we should get rid of the minimum wage in order to (hopefully) have some of those jobs that went foreign return, because our economy as it is is unsustainable. We need imports just as much as we should rely on exports, and the only reason are economy has remained the way it has is...

    The Minimum Wage Fallacy

    The idea of a minimum wage is-despite being good intentioned- deeply flawed. Wage control, in the long run, actually has the opposite effect of its original intention, and that is, to raise the standard of living for the average worker. Although this may seem ludicrous, let me explain. Before a...

    Modern Economics

    I agree wholeheartedly- the idea that you can "forecast" future profits based on quantities demanded in the past is absurd, simply because of how attitudes of consumers are constantly changing. I feel like the only reason any of these multi-national conglomerates still exist today is because of...
