The North Koreans Are Going To Get Us All!

Even though it was South Korea that fired the first shot. As a friend commented, wars have been started over less than this. Rather scary. Pretty scary. Not North Korea, but South Korea and our government. Sadly, they have a bad reputation for starting wars because of attacks/invasions, etc…that didn’t really happen, or at least weren’t masterminded by the supposed enemy. Who knows what they will do next… http://www.lewrockwell.com/blog/lewrw/archives/71052.html

Has the Free Market Amused Us to Death?

I’m reading a book right now called, “Daily Life in the United States, 1920-1940.” I bought it at our local library for 25 cents. It is a gem. I write a lot about this era in American history, and so it is very interesting to read the nitty-gritty details about life. Needless to say the author (David Kyvig) is quite the leftist. But I can easily penetrate through this propaganda, and there’s an interesting story behind it. The early 1900’s were really a time of great technological change, even revolution, in America. From driving to church in a buggy to…

Bring Them Home!

I’m sometimes accused of being “anti-military,” as if that’s as bad as being “anti-life.” But I wish to clarify my position on this. I’m not against the military, if by military you mean the individuals who are out there risking their lives. If that’s what you mean, then I’m all for them. I get a little misty-eyed when I see a reunion of a soldier and his family. I do care deeply about those soldiers. In fact, I care for them so much that it pains me to think of these people giving up these years of their life, precious…

Where Have I Been?

I must apologize for the lack of posts in the last couple days. Came down with some sort of cold on Thursday that knocked me out for all of Friday. Just starting to feel better now. You should feel very good that while yet so tired and weak I’m trying to write a blog post. What dedication and devotion to my readers! It was so frustrating to lay (or lie?) in bed, thinking of the 1,000 things I want to do, and not being able to do any of it. I did listen to several lectures from Mises.org, so that…

Tom Woods at ISU

You’ll have to forgive me today if I do anything really stupid. I’m a little low on sleep. We got back from Illinois State University at about 1am today. And thanks to my dear siblings I was awake by about 7am. But it was totally worth it. Warning: I can’t help but do a little bragging in this post. So if that bothers  you, don’t read it. And frankly, I will understand if you don’t read it. If I weren’t me, I probably wouldn’t read it either. Which makes you wonder why I’m going to do it, if no one…

The Blight of Beck

Have I ever mentioned how much I can’t stand Glenn Beck? He makes me sick. And very mad. Anyways, here’s an article from LewRockwell.com on how Fox News (and Glenn Beck primarily) have totally distorted the Progressive era and agenda.

Airports Can (and Should) Opt Out of TSA Screening

Just got this link from a friend, apparently there’s a U.S. Representative urging airports to ditch the TSA and use their own private security. Wouldn’t that be great? I think enough people are starting to get upset over this, there may be hope yet. Especially if we vote with our dollars and refuse to patronize these airports that allow the TSA to screen and search their passengers. That will send a very loud and very clear message to the world. And if we are silent? Well, if we submit to the TSA, I’m afraid that America will submit to anything….

Thank You, Bush…for the TSA

I guess the title of this post gives it all away. There’s been much commotion these days over the TSA. Haven’t you noticed? It is here, and here, if that’s not enough, then here, here and here. As many are saying, it is just out of control. There is no way that anyone will convince me to fly while there are still these scanners, still these pat-downs, still the horrible TSA. I’d rather miss Mises U or seeing Ron Paul than go through that. And I hope the conservatives are happy now. I hope the Republicans are satisfied. This is the…

Leave or Detox: Only ways millions will survive the Gulf Oil Spill

Interesting article about how bad the conditions are…according to this piece millions of people are being poisoned by the seafood they eat and the air they breath. The doctor featured in the piece notes that the US government used “Corexit”…which has been banned in other countries because of the serious damage it causes to the brain, not to mention the rest of the body. If all of this is true, then this oil spill is one of the greatest attacks on humanity that the government has ever instigated. http://www.examiner.com/human-rights-in-national/gulf-hero-dr-soto-detox-or-move-only-ways-millions-will-survive
