The Major Players in 2008 Democratic Race
And I'm not talking about the candidates. Is Hillary any lower than Obama? Does Obama have an advantage that has helped him clinch the nomination? The votes are in for most states, but what does that mean to me? I will say what no one else wants to.

Second amendment at risk
I am allowed to own a gun and there is no one that will be able to take that right from me. I will buy from locals if I have to in order to protect myself. Local governement once again is doing their best to make decisions for you and me. Is this right? I guess when no one in the world says anything, nothing will be done.

Dear Mister Taxman
Taxes were created to help people but with the increasing number of unemployed and those who are just simply not willing to work, a few people end up paying for the rest. The government has been finding more ways to tax what people do. The only taxes that seem reasonable for me to pay are the ones that I use. Let the government hear this message!

Free healthcare, rent and food stamps... oh my!
There will always be rich and poor. Upper, lower and middle class. The rich will always get richer and the poor, poorer right? A sensitive subject has risen about paying poor people to get "fixed" has people in uproar. Is this discrimination or is this common sense strategy?

Talking about it doesn't fix a thing
Now that everyone is beginning to see the changes take place in the world, some are beginning to stand up. People are finding ways to complain about how bad it is but fail to take action. How do we fix the current problems our world faces? We surely can't do it by talking about it!

People: They're magically suspicious!
What we don't know really does hurt us. It is what makes us vulnerable and open for attack. It sounds a lot like a war story, but it is really just a metaphor for the differences in human beings and the reason for all the problems we have created and now must deal with. The changes we have been making lately aren't much of a change - we just change how we present the message of change.

Technology vs Energy
We all love new toys and find ourselves eager to be the first to get one. Businesses are in a race to build new things just as much we are to buy them. Whatever it is, technology will power our future, but what will power it? If we really want to build it better, we need to start with the simple things in life.

The Truth Hurts

Yeah, I know it's been a while since my last post. I've been very busy with work, the house, etc. I have so much to talk about, but it seems no one wants to hear it. Why? The truth hurts, we all know that, but I feel obligated to tell it no matter what consequences it brings. Why? It will come out eventually.

Individuality is what separates us
One cannot be two and two cannot be one. You are and individual with your own reality. You care about things that affect you. You contain thoughts no one else knows. Your dreams and visions of the world are different than mine - that is what makes us unique. Each of us wants the freedom to remain their own person, yet individualism is what is destroying us.

Take the time to do it right
The world today is a fast paced, don't think, just get it done now type of place. Businesses are rushing to discover the next big thing at whatever expense it may be. When they find it, we find the work is done to satisfy the needs of today instead of long term success. The next solution to the success of the human race is to slow down and do it right for once.

The Real Never Ending Story

Yes, life is a miracle. The fact that we are here is beyond belief. One generation comes and another goes. It is a cycle, the circle of life. Life is great, but isn't always easy, we can all testify to that. In most cases, we make it harder on ourselves. Life is simply a re-run. It's hard not to see the careless repetition. In this issue, I'd like to answer the question - why do we just keep going in circles? The shortest distance between two points is a straight line!
