From yesterday’s excellent Campaign for Liberty mailer:
After the Paulson $700 billion bailout package passed in early October, we knew it was only a matter of time before Congress moved to use your money yet again to bail out a struggling industry.
Now, a vote to give funds to the “Big 3″ auto manufactures, GM, Ford, and [...]
I dislike both major-party presidential candidates so profoundly that I would feel extremely uncomfortable giving my vote to either of them. Sure, I like Obama even less than McCain, but luckily I live in a “landslide” state where I don’t have to make the difficult decision of whether I’ll vote for the proverbial “lessor of [...]
This is who I’m being for Halloween. :)
Ron Paul was dead right about the economy. If you haven’t watched his videos on YouTube, you should. He was calling the bursting of the housing bubble well before it happened. And the credit crunch? Yep, he’s warned of that too.
Ron Paul would have smoked Obama in the [...]
On the bailouts, I just came up with this one liner (in the tradition of Yakov Smirnoff):
“In Soviet America, bank robs you.”
It would be more funny if it weren’t so true –or if it were said by a Ukrainian.
Well, the $700 billion (pre-pork) bailout bill passed 263 to 171, and our “conservative” president GWB has already signed it into law. Here’s the House vote and the Senate vote so you know who to hate.
Here in Utah, Senators Bennett and Hatch broke their oaths to defend the constitution, with Bennett being one of the [...]
Today the US House of Representative is very likely to pass one of the most stupid pieces of legislation I have ever seen. They’re getting MAJOR pressure by the president, majority and minority leaders in congress, both major party presidential nominees, the Federal Reserve, and everyone else you can think of to pass an “emergency” [...]
The Deseret News is reporting that Governor Huntsman has ordered the Utah State Department of Commerce to monitor gas prices.
That’s just politics as usual, but I’m alarmed by how many people here in “conservative” Utah are commenting that they want the government to step in and “do something” rather than just “monitor”. It’s like we’re [...]
Thank goodness our “limited government” Republicans are here to bail us out of the negative economic results of big government through the use of even more big government. Socialized housing, here we come.
Allan Young plugged my last post in a piece he wrote about the potential of arson as a scapegoat of housing-bubble hardships.
His post reminds me of a similar report of arson, this time related to government rent control. In Thomas Sowell’s excellent book, Basic Economics - A Citizen’s Guide to the Economy, he explains that [...]
I love this quote from Ron Paul’s most recent installment of his weekly column “Texas Straight Talk“.
While Democrats propose to tax and spend, many Republicans aim to borrow and spend, which hurts the taxpayer just as much in the long run.
Republicans who are concerned about increased taxation should be up in arms about the present [...]
