A couple of months ago we were told that we would be able to keep our policy. Three weeks later we were told we would not. (Seems like nobody really understands Obamacare.) Our replacement policy has less of the coverage that we actually need and more of the coverage for which we have...

Excellent. Thanks.

Do you have a source for this data? One of my idiot neighbors is always telling everyone that the reason California is a far-left liberal state is because the average Californian is so smart. I'd love to show her this data.

The substance of the proverb is true. Whether or not it is historically correct is irrelevant.

People are not destroyed by money, but rather by their own human failings (arrogance, greed, etc.). As a constant reminder, I keep this Chinese proverb on the wall in my trading office: "Money is round and it rolls -- and it doesn't care who it rolls to."

Study of California lottery winners: One third of all lottery winners (over $100k) are broke after five years and 70% are broke after ten years.

Opposites do attract and that can be a good thing. My wife and I are very different in terms of personality and interests. Those differences have kept our marriage fun and interesting for 20 years, but it's not what keeps us together. Despite our differences, we have the same values. We've never...

The minimum wage proposal is based on an economic model. But there's just one problem. Economic models often fail because they're bound by assumptions that don't measure "unintended consequences." Here's a classic example: When a good idea isn't such a good idea In the late 1980s the...

We should NEVER "compromise" our Constitutional rights. That's how a democracy turns into a police state.

The Constitution wasn't written to protect our enemies. It's purpose is to protect US citizens by recognizing our rights. One of those rights is freedom from unreasonable search and seizure. Gathering all communications from American citizens without probable cause and/or a search warrant is...

Where in the Constitution does it give the government the authority to "delve into everyone's thoughts"? And where does it say that we have no rights of privacy?

If I understand you correctly, you're saying there's no such thing as a "reasonable expectation of privacy."

According to FBI statistics, approximately 150 people a year are killed in "mass murders" with guns. According to NCAR (the National Center for Atmospheric Research), approximately 400 people are hit by lightning each year. In other words, you're 2.6 times more likely to get hit by lightning...

There is some reporting, but nowhere near enough. ********************************************** http://www.latimes.com/opinion/commentary/la-oe-hacker-presidential-power-20131208,0,7397576.story#axzz2mpgHvWcx When President George W. Bush was in office, Democrats criticized his...
