It is my hope that the people reading my work would not actually care "About Me". I have an education, a job, and a place to live. I am, for all intents and purposes, as "average" as any American can be, at least in background. It is by my ideas that I would want the reader to judge the worth of my articles. Hopefully I Inform, entertain, inspire, or even piss off the reader enough to comment and return. My thoughts are forever evolving and growing. Often I have found myself in 180 degrees opposition from a value, policy or virtue I once believed strongly in. "Flip Flopping", when done right, I believe is a sign of an open mind. It can also be a sign of a weak mind.

When You're Stuck In Quicksand, Kicking Your Feet Only Makes You Sink Faster I would like to have somebody explain to me how helping out failing home owners is going to help the economy. This is my take on why it not only won't help, but will hurt those of us who did things right.

What Is Good For The Producer Is Good For The Consumer Economies It seems in our quest to be fair we are willing to let ourselves crumble into economic chaos. However as usual, what "common sense" leads us to believe is "fair" falls short of reality. Other countries subsidize their whole labor force in both tangible and intangible ways. Healthcare, education, energy costs, shorter mortality, less credit can all cause an unfair advantage to the US economy.

Breaking News Is Broken Even the news has suffered from our mental sweet tooth. They broadcast what they know will sell and not what is important. Today was a new low.

Sometimes things look good on paper, but only if you stop writing before the paper is finished.

Credit In The Simplest Terms Possible. I Think As long as the government keeps propping up the credit industry our problems will never be solved. To understand why bailing out the auto industry is more sensible than bailing out Fannie, Freddie, AIG, or Lehman. At least the auto industry produces a product.

Raising Taxes vs. Reducing Wealth Often the argument is made by the conservative right that Democrats are noted for raising taxes and drive jobs out of the country. Take a shallow perspective of what that means and it is accurate. However, the whole story is that Republicans have a more backhanded approach to achieve the same means. This article will delve further into that reality.

Opening Drilling In ANWAR, Taxing Our Way Out, And the Reality Of The Gas Price Crisis A Q & A about the reality of drilling our way out of the gasoline price crisis. Drilling for more oil is like saying the problem with crack addicts is that there is not enough crack supply. If there was more crack it would drive the price down and they wouldn't have to beg, steal, and hook to get their fix.

John McCain: More Liberal Then Most Democrats On Economics. A hard look at some of Senator McCain's economic proposals. It is no wonder the conservatives hate him. Then again he doesn't seem to completely understand Liberalism either. Really it doesn't look like he understands anything.

Why Isn't It Our Business? After Chelsea pointed out that she has never been asked about her mom's credibility in reference to the nation's most public sex scandal it left me to ask, "why not?" That lead me to consider other questions that have gone unasked of Ms. Clinton.

The New Poor A hard look and description of the US current economic situation. It addresses the credit issue from both the individual and national perspective.
