“[State controlled] education is a weapon, whose effect depends on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed.” – Joseph Stalin

 

 

"[I]f you serve a child a rotten hamburger in America, federal, state, and local agencies will investigate you, summon you, close you down, whatever.  But if you provide a child with a rotten education, nothing happens, except that you're liable to be given more money to do it with."

--Ronald Reagan

 

“Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.” - Vladimir Ilyich Lenin (1870-1924)

 

 

A survey has shown that 85 percent of the economists in Canada and 90 percent of the economists in the United States say that minimum wage laws reduce employment. But you don't need a Ph.D. in economics to know that jacking up prices leads fewer people to buy. Those people include employers, who hire less labor when labor is made artificially more expensive. Thomas Sowell

I have no problem with “attack” ads in political campaigns.  Criticizing an opponent’s record or views often clarifies the differences between the candidates, which can be very helpful to voters.          (click to read more)

 

Edward Dean Moore, Vietnam Veteran or Not       By Jeff “Mario” Smith, Guerilla Reporter

Edward Dean Moore is running for Clerk of Boone County, KY. He has a website to promote himself in that election. On his website are claims of Vietnam Service.

Conspiracy of silence on immigration?

Why has the press not been asking the candidates about their views on our illegal immigration problem?  Americans have identified illegal immigration as being the second most important issue, after national security, and yet we are hearing very little about this issue during the political campaigns.          (click to read more)

 

The PC Crowd Wants OPM to Support Sodomy; Stan Lee says No       By Jeff “Mario” Smith, Guerilla Reporter

In these days of political correctness (PC), political corruption, and political scandal, it is rare when a politician stands up to do what is right for his constituents, knowing the onslaught that will engulf him from the raucous PC crowd.         (click to read more)

 

Debtors Prison         By David Schlosser, candidate for U.S. Congress

On the campaign trail, I get a lot of quizzical looks when I tell people that the Federal government should use the same accounting standards that it requires of business.  Last August, USA TODAY detailed the difference between the keeping books for business and the Federal government.          (click to read more)

 

Strictly  Limited  Government with  fewer  laws  and   government  programs  would be good for America........        By Donna Mancini

 Three Legislative  Priorities, 

  *End the Current  War On Terror, bring home all the troops worldwide,  and  adopt a foreign policy of non-intervention in the political affairs of  other countries.  Use  the Military  to  Defend  American soil..           (click to read more)

"Thanks in part to the 'macaca' episode, the Virginia Senate race remains tight. If a Republican loss there tips control of the Senate to the Democrats, then Robert Byrd will become the chamber's president pro tempore. Concern about racism would thus put a former Klansman in the line of succession to the presidency." John J. Pitney, Jr.

  

"Overall, most Americans hand over at least 40% of every dollar they make to government at some level.  The appetite for your tax dollars-whether at the federal, state, or local level-will continue to grow year after year unless we begin to rethink the proper role for government in our lives." - Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas)

 

Free State Project

 

"A society that does not recognize that each individual has values of his own which he is entitled to follow can have no respect for the dignity of the individual and cannot really know freedom." ---Fredrich August von Hayek



 

Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.

 

 

 

America will gain her honor and her liberty only when Americans themselves recover their original distrust for oppressive government, their practice of thrift, and their basic good neighborliness. — Karen Kwiatkowski
