The Revolt Against the Experts Helps Herman Cain - HUMAN EVENTS
As I see it, the experts did not offer extert opinions. Rather, they offered political opinions. Often the two cannot be reconciled. If politicians truly had the best interest of the country at heart, the experts would be giving expert advice on which policies to advance. The problem is they want what is politically favorable from the experts, instead of what is the best option.

Profits are for the People
Profits are for the People, by Walter Williams, Ph.D. - Townhall.com
Walter Williams explains just how the motive to produce profits benefits the poeple. The statement that most people, I think, will find surprising is that 50-60 cents of every dollar invested in business goes to payroll, while 5-8 cents goes to profit.

NBA - Not Basketball Anymore
Millionaires fighting millionaires over billions are truly out of touch with what is going on in AMerica. The average salary of NBA players is $5.1 million, including a league minimum of $474,000. Total NBA revenue is approximately $4.5 billion. Go ahead, cancel the season. See if I care.

America Brought China's Rare-Earth Elements Monopoly on Itself - HUMAN EVENTS
Yet another unintended consequence of the enviro-movement. Closing mines, and making it difficult to open new mines, all in favor of protecting the environment, has now left us extremely vulnerable, economically and militarity, to China.

Government the Job Killer - HUMAN EVENTS
Government the Job Killer - HUMAN EVENTS
The transcontinental railroad lost tons of money. The government never covered its costs, and most rail lines that used the tracks went bankrupt or continued to be subsidized by taxpayers. The Union Pacific and Northern Pacific -- all those rail lines we learned about in history class -- milked the taxpayer and then went broke.
One line worked. The Great Northern never went bankrupt. It was the railroad that got no subsidies.
