We are now faced with a Hard Left-conquered Democrat Party – looking to maximize government in every nook and cranny of our lives. Never discussed by the Hard Left-conquered Democrat Party and their Big Media fellow travelers? Everything government does – it does terribly. I know, I know: The first refuge for anyone looking to…
A fortnight ago we yet again addressed the truism: Bad ideas never die – because there will always be government programs. Britain’s Labour Party Says They’ll Have Government Seize Private Broadband Networks: “Behold – from the Olde Country: “‘Britain’s opposition Labour Party plans to nationalise BT’s broadband network to provide free internet for all if…
I like a lot of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act – aka the President Donald Trump Tax Cuts. Likely my favorite part – was the $10,000 cap on State and Local Tax Deductions (SALT): “The state and local tax (SALT) deduction allows taxpayers of high-tax states to deduct local tax payments on their…

Behold – from the Olde Country: “Britain’s opposition Labour Party plans to nationalise BT’s broadband network to provide free internet for all if it wins power, making a radical election pledge to roll back 35 years of…

“Lobbyist” has become a dirty word in DC. As have many words and practices – that are expressly protected by the Constitution. Because DC is $4.5-trillion-per-year-in-spending and $1+-trillion-in-regulating – that is mostly antithetical to the Constitution. Behold the relevant portion of the Constitution’s First Amendment: “Congress shall make no law…abridging…the right of the people peaceably…to…
Today’s thought foray – requires us to define a few terms. First: Internet Service Providers (ISPs): The companies that have in the last quarter-century invested more than a trillion dollars – building the actual Internet. Comcast, Verizon, Time Warner, AT&T, etc. The companies that laid the Information Superhighway – upon which all the rest of…
The answer to everything even remotely policy-related – is less government. Because the original sin of everything even remotely policy-related – is too much government. Want to solve our health care “crisis” – ??? Undo the original government sins. After World War II – taxes were kept at during-WW II levels. So in an end…
President Donald Trump early Monday morning Tweeted: “We just WON the big court case on Net Neutrality Rules! A great win for the future and speed of the internet.
