Entrepreneurship
Tigerhawk suggests that the decline in entrepreneurship is due to added regulations (one regulation at a time) and decreasing reward. Or perhaps Americans are starting fewer businesses because our local, state and federal governments, in a thousand little steps, have … Continue reading

Too much government

Death of the GOP?
The impending death of the GOP has been getting a lot of press lately. It may surprise readers of this blog, which there aren’t many, that I’ve never been a registered Republican. I’ve primarily been non-affiliated, but I do register … Continue reading

Folks hot and bothered, the media cool and indifferent
Neil sums up the tea party reporting and liberal political reaction succintly. His message to the MSM… Such is the history of fringe causes. The media eventually, eventually covers them. If only to cover something else: their ass.

Nashville Tea Party
More indications that Tea Parties are not a GOP “thing”. But disorganization has its benefits. This was not a partisan political event. The national GOP, and even most Republican members of Congress kept their distance. One elected representative who was … Continue reading

Tea party Republican smackdown
Michelle documents California GOP chair Ron Nehring being “smacked down” at the Sacramento Tea Party. This movement is not as simple minded as many believe. Doesn’t mean it won’t die, but it has the potential to be more broad based … Continue reading

Tea party politics
Judging from comments I’ve read in the local Boulder paper, the tea party movement is incorrectly being pigeonholed into the right wing conservative wacko box. I don’t think that reflects reality. To me, this Jennifer Rubin article at Pajama’s media … Continue reading

How far will patriotism take us?
See more here…. The administration should hope these top producers don’t go “John Galt” on them. One other interesting factoid, the tax code contains 3,700,000 words. That’s a lot btw.
Wrong side of history?
It appears that members of Congress are avoiding the Tax Day Tea Party protests. According to Neil Cavuto they’re on the wrong side of history. Actually I think that’s fine, there are few members of Congress that have the moral … Continue reading
