Anyone interested in the global warming debate should avail themselves of the following resources. For a brief overview of the science of global warming and/or simply to see how much you really know about global warming, take the Global Warming...

Hats off to Dr. Robert Berry who is almost single-handedly trying to revolutionize the practice of medicine in the United States. For instance, he refuses to accept any payment from insurance companies. He does this out of principle, as anyone...

The writers of this bill clearly think most Missourians are a bunch of ignorant hicks who cannot understand that this amendment has been written in the most deceitful method the writers could contrive. A more accurate amendment title would be Embryonic Stem Cell and Test Tube Cloning Amendment

We do not have a competitive market for television channels in most of the US. Most consumers have four ways to obtain content if they want to watch TV. The simplest way is to just watch free TV that consumers...

A tenet of both conservatism and libertarianism is that a free market will best meet the needs of people so long as competition is protected (the majority of conservatives and some libertarians do see the need for government to restrict...

A very dedicated reader, despite my neglect of my email friends, has persevered in asking about a negative PayPal experience that I had. Since I haven’t posted in too long (our house might be done by Thanksgiving!), maybe this post...

After 108 years, the unconstitutional and illegal phone tax will finally cease. After July 31, phone companies should no longer collect this tax (so check your bills in August). It only took the rulings of five appeals court to make...

This country was founded by immigrants and we have an obligation to help those less fortunate than ourselves. Yet we cannot afford to support the world and there are inherent fairness issues (should an illegal immigrant who snuck into the...

I am about to hire a firm to add shopping to Solport. I will be stocking innovative items, mostly consumer electronics, that are not typically carried by mass merchandise stores. My working slogan is: Solport: The most innovative products in...

As part of my career, I create marketing surveys. More and more of my surveys have been online surveys as the typical American now has internet access at either work or home. I have used several programs and services, but...

While Three Economic Books is not the most exciting title in the world, I was pleasantly surprised by how interesting some of my recent reading has been. The FairTax Book is a light, but interesting read on taxes – a...

James Joyner has an interesting post on free speech, or the lack thereof, in Europe. He quotes Sebastian Holsclaw and both make the point that people should be allowed to say stupid things. I don't see why many of my...

I have waited over two weeks to post about President Bush's nomination of Harriet Miers for several reasons. I was disappointed that Bush did not pick someone with an established constitutionalist view, I was not familiar with Miers, and my...

James Taranto, who I would classify as a coastal Republican (e.g., conservative on most issues, but liberal on social issues; similar to the founders of the libertarian party) had a very interesting suggestion yesterday for a new amendment. Section 1....

I have been using Google as a news source since about the time it came out. It is still a Beta release, but it works very well. They are a news aggregator, their computer algorithms sort through many news sources...

One of my quests for change is slowly bearing fruit. The poliblogger has implemented a permalink for his political Toast-O-Meter. If you are a fan of his political analysis (and you should be), consider adding http://poliblogger.com/toast.html to your bookmarks....

Dear Carnival of the [insert name here], I think the idea of periodically bringing together various bloggers under one umbrella has many benefits. I have been pleased to participate in some of these events myself. I also appreciate watching the...

I have always thought it unethical to promote R rated movies at PG and G rated shows. Likewise, I think it wrong for movie theaters to show trailers for PG movies to customers who bought a ticket for a G...

One of my resolutions for 2004 was to post new ideas on my blog. To help me track this, I am starting a new category entitled Quests for Change. These quests may be quixotic, but they are changes that I...
