Once again, government rises up to “fix” a problem they created and in the process directly take massive amounts of freedom from people. The Bush Administration has said that they, personally, do not like a number of financial agreements that are legal, binding, and voluntarily made by people. So they’re simply deciding by [...]

City of Philadelphia Continues Hatred
Posted in America, Freedom on December 5, 2007 | 4 Comments »
It appears that the City of Philadelphia, site of lots of violence and unrest, is going forward with plans to remove one of the very few organizations that has been teaching children how to avoid violence and unrest for almost 80 years — because the city hates them. Apparently the city is actively working [...]
New Dangers: Working and Salt
Posted in Freedom, Government, Right and Wrong on December 4, 2007 | 18 Comments »
In case you’re keeping track (and you’re probably not), there’s a new danger which government “needs” to protect us from: salt. Yes, that little white stuff that you find, well, everywhere. According to Those Who Know Better Than You, it’s killing you and should be regulated, banned, and controlled by government — much [...]
Duke Power Wants Cash
Posted in America, Freedom, News on December 3, 2007 | 7 Comments »
And so they’re asking government to raise rates so they can have more money. And knowing government, they will probably allow it. Oh sure, Duke Power is claiming they want the money to “research alternative energy sources.” Apparently no one is doing that now. And apparently no one will do it [...]
Government Support Of…

Quick question — how is it that a library that’s paid for with my taxpayer government cash is somehow not responsible and those pictures are NOT an endorsement by government — but an employee of the government, for example, a school teacher, who simply carries a Bible with them, or says, “Merry Christmas” IS a [...]
Child Welfare Endangerment?
Posted in Education, Freedom on November 27, 2007 | 13 Comments »
One of the great dangers of allowing government to do anything is that they will change, morph, and re-define anything they like to obtain more power and control. That’s what government desires — power and control. The more they can take, the happier the government bureaucrats are. See, they start with words [...]

Now I imagine most of my readers who are familiar with a kitchen know how to make that wonderful holiday concoction, Eggnog. For those who don’t understand, you might take a guess at the ingredients. Go ahead, think about it a minute, see if you can think of any one ingredient in EGGnog. [...]

While this article may look like satire, it’s not. And that should scare you. Here’s a portion of it:
children were herded into a Price George County courthouse being guarded by armed personnel with attack dogs. Inside, the children were forcibly vaccinated, many against their will, under orders from the State Attorney General

LOST Treaty
Posted in Freedom, Government on November 23, 2007 | 10 Comments »
This treaty should be lost. It’s the treaty that Democrats love because it literally gives away power from the United States to unelected bureaucrats of other countries. Democrats (and Bush) apparently love one world government — as long as that government isn’t an elected government nor American.

Ask Permission to Use eBay?
Posted in Freedom, Government on November 23, 2007 | 4 Comments »
So, have you recently asked your government permission to sell things on eBay? What? You haven’t? Then perhaps you need to be jailed for punishment. Well, that’s what the state of Pennsylvania thinks. Seriously.
Oh, and it takes six to eight months to get this permission. And yes, the state [...]
