Economic issues-taxes, freedom to do business, unemployment
It has been very disheartening this week, reading about all the good people whose lives and livelihoods have been under murderous assault, both in the USA and abroad. In Kenya, many Christian students were murdered by ruthless terrorists, at their school. The death toll is nearly 150! These students were studying, bothering no one. …
A couple of weeks ago, couture fashion designers Dolce and Gabbana gave an interview to an Italian magazine.

It is filled with ads for expensive clothing, watches, and jewelry, and features stories about people and …

Some would say that giving is to help other people, perhaps those defined as "needy"; i.e. the purpose of giving is to improve the situation (emotional or material) of others. As you might imagine, the motivations for giving have been extensively …
During the tense negotiations in DC a while ago, where the D's and R's "negotiated" (scare quotes intended) a spending bill to keep the sainted government running for yet another fiscal year, I was rooting for the R's to simply say NO. I want them to shut down the government, since much of it …
