I have been listening to reports of poverty and success for various groups. From what I have read the issue seems to be fairness and inequality issues. I guess the theory is that many are born into their fate and are stuck there. I don’t have the facts but do believe there may be some […]

DO YOU WANT TO EARN A LOT OF MONEY? I like to write about issues that affect young people as well as folks who are further along in their careers. Much of what concerns me is helping people figure out how to make a living and survive in the world. I wrote a book about […]

Abortion Sometimes the worst thing that happens to you can turn out to be the best thing. I think we all recognize that but when one is in the moment it is hard to think that way. One of my worst moments came 43 years ago when I was just graduating from college. My girlfriend […]

I have gone through “The Life of Julia” several times. It is a very clever presentation showing how “Julia” progressed through her life very well, with seemingly little stress because of government programs that helped her along the way. I admit, it is a very compelling case that they make for more entitlements. And the […]

When businesses lay someone off they frequently provide a severance pay for the individual. Depending upon rank and tenure it is designed to help the former employee out while they seek a new job. It is a fixed amount, and is paid over time regardless whether the person gets new job during the payout. I […]

That may seem like an odd opinion from a conservative. I recognize the constitutional issues and it may not come to pass, but why do I feel this way? First, many people would not buy it unless their employer provided it. I don’t know about other states but do know that in Minnesota that it […]
