What Did LaVoy Finicum Die For?: Part One
I watched the January 26, 2016 FBI footage and Finicum definitely attempted to run the roadblock, almost striking an agent who jumped in front of him. He left the vehicle immediately walking several yards away covered by multiple agents. He seems to have put his hands down for some reason and the agents shot him […]
American Freedom Starts at Home
When I first met them, the Pattersons were just a typical low-middle-class California family. But they really cared about raising their children (3 adopted and 1 natural born) the right way and always had lots of questions and seemed to work hard at going the extra mile to learn or do their very best. Don’t […]
I.O.U.S.A
I am completely serious when I tell you this. Based on the evolution of the United States government and our current standing in the world, it is likely that short of President of the United States, the most important office in the federal government and the least known federal government office is the Government Accountability Office. […]

“It’s Like An App Store For Mentorship”
What do Buckminster Fuller, Peter J. Daniels, and Andrew Carnegie all have in common? They each achieved huge fortunes. All three greatly influenced the politics of their time. Each made philanthropy or the giving away of millions of dollars a major focus. And each started out poor, uneducated, with no special advantages of birth, pedigree, or station. Within the biographies […]
Melt Down To A New Economy
“Meltdown: A Free-Market Look At Why The Stock Market Collapsed, The Economy Tanked, And Government Bailouts Will Make Things Worse.” That is the title to Thomas Woods’ 2009 book. It is so good I am sad that I didn’t read it when it was first published. Please do not turn away in disinterest…I know this […]
Maybe Forrest Gump Was Right
Retirement. Most Americans are either ignoring this fact of life hoping it will go away, or facing its eventuality with fear and trembling. Based on a year’s worth of research, I am certain that 9 out of 10 people reading this blog fit that category. There is plenty of available data showing the hopelessness of […]
The Sentence That Knocked Down the Berlin Wall (But Almost Didn’t)
This post is a reprint of the November 5 ,2014 article from the Intercollegiate Review. In retrospect, what event fails to suggest a certain inevitability about itself, conveying the sense that because it happened it had to have happened? Twenty-five years ago this week, the Berlin Wall finally fell. Of course it did. How […]
