High tech companies get favorable tax treatment in California. Everybody else pays through the nose. But even the high tech companies are running out of patience because of the massive regulation and lawsuits. John Chambers, CEO of Cisco, called California the worst place in the country to do...

Great for gun stores. Everybody's stocking up on ammo. Picked up a new Glock17 while I was there.

A few states (Delaware, Oregon and New Hampshire) don't have sales taxes. Why don't they set up shop there and make it a non-issue?

The study is not "paper trading." If you would read it, you would see that it measures actual voter behavior, election by election. It's as "real world" as it gets. It statistically controls for self-selection and shows that Democrats are every bit as racist in the voting booth as Republicans...

You are 100% wrong. Read the research. Do you think the Yale University economics department is lying? Do you think the Washington Post is lying? "... white Republicans nationally are 25 percentage points more likely on average to vote for the Democratic senatorial candidate when the GOP...

Satisticians call that "self-selection." Until recently, virtually all black candidates chose to run as democrats. If they only run as democrats, they can't be elected as Republicans. It's statistically impossible. The Yale research I mentioned in my previous post controls for self-selection...

According to research at Yale University, white Democrats are every bit as racist as white Republicans, and in some cases even more so. "... white Republicans nationally are 25 percentage points more likely on average to vote for the Democratic senatorial candidate when the GOP hopeful is...

When kids are young they're inexpensive. Watch what happens as they get older and get involved in more activities. Costs will increase dramatically. I'm speaking from experience. I have a 10 year old and 13 year old. It also depends on what kind of experiences you want your kids to have. I...

A national healthcare system only works if you cap costs. When you cap costs, you end up with rationing. My wife's sister lives in Canada. She badly injured her knee in a car accident. She had to wait three months for an MRI and an additional four months for surgery. She was in excruciating...

When people have kids they can't afford the child gets slighted, the family ends up on welfare and the taxpaying public gets stuck with the bill. We have 600,000 of these families in California alone. Don't have kids if you can't afford to take care of them.

Let's say it costs $10k when the child is born. That's just the beginning. We easily spend more than $10k per year on each of our kids every single year. The hospital bills are where the expenses start. After that, it's food, clothes, soccer, dance lessons, piano lessons, vacations, Chistmas...

I believe there's a 1 in 7 chance that world will end on a Saturday.

You could ask the same question of any highly-competitive profession. Every year there are tens of thousands of young golfers who want to make it to the professional golf tour. Ninty-nine percent of them never make it. Every year, thousands of people flock to Hollywood to become a movie star or...

I'm not disagreeing with your basic premise, I'm just saying the US has no moral high ground on this subject. The US took most of its land in various wars and never gave back anything. If we're serious in our proposal, we should start by returning land to Mexico and the Indians. If we're not...

Before we tell Israel to give back land, the United States should return all the land we took from Mexico (California, Arizona, Nevada and parts of New Mexico, Utah and Colorado) during the Mexican-American war. After we return the land we took in wars, we will have the moral high ground...

That math sounds about right since they are both profligate spenders and Obama's been in office 2 years while Bush was in office for eight years.

"Debt slaves" is exactly the right description. I have have two kids (ages 10 & 13), and we're seriously considering leaving the country. There's plenty of blame to go around. The democrats refuse to cut social programs and the republicans refuse to cut defense. In the end, they'll probably...

ALL religious organizations are subsidized by the government. They're tax exempt entities. And individuals get tax breaks by contributing to them. The $40M in tax breaks you refer to is nothing compared to the BILLIONS of dollars in tax breaks that all religious organizations and their...

Mr. Green, I agree with you in principle, but independent/small-business traders will not be spared if the taxers get their way. If any type of financial tax is implemented, it will be on all of us. We must fight all financial industry taxes in every manner possible. Best regards, Tom

If Corsi's got something he should either release it or STFU. All these idiotic announcements regarding what he's "about to release" are just feeble-minded publicity stunts that never live up to the hype.
