Larry Anderson writes for American Thinker, Venture Capitalism Not Crony Capitalism, 1/20/12:
Excerpt:
The moral difference between a Governor Keith and a Thomas Denham (venture capitalist)  is staggering. Keith made lavish promises (not just to Benjamin Franklin) based on the use of money that Keith did not have or that did not belong to him. People were [...]]]></description>

In American Thinker Randall Hoven writes Science for Stupid Idiots, 9/22/11.
Excerpts:
we get to why we must believe &#8220;science,&#8221; meaning taking whatever &#8220;scientists&#8221; say is incontrovertible truth.  If we start having doubts about any of it, we just might start thinking for ourselves.  We will no longer simply swallow what our betters feed us.
The irony is that [...]]]></description>

Supply side economics remains controversial and poorly understood both by its critics who think it is just  ‘trickle down’ economics: a thinly veiled rationalization to improve the lives of the wealthy at the expense of the poor, and by many of its proponents who think that cuts in tax rates will always increase tax revenues.

Some Random thoughts:
Home prices are falling. Is this a bad thing? Hasn’t the misguided federal housing policy sought to expand home ownership?  Could they be more successful in their failure than they thought they were when they were ‘successful’?    In an effort to create home ownership for those who could not afford it, they destroyed [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I had about two dozen postings in American Thinker this past year.  A few for those who may have missed them:
The New Aristocracy
Why Elitists Fail 
Finding John Galt
The Price of Equality
The Immorality of Class Warfare
Many of the readers&#8217; comments are well worth the time.
