Obama Takes Aim at Private Insurance

Not long ago, President Obama was a proponent of a single payer health care system.  Today, he says he supports both a public and private option.  On such an important issue we can not afford to have ambiguity.  Is Obama setting himself up for an eventual single payer health care system? Is his goal to ultimately eliminate private health insurance?  You be the judge… Share this article:  Read More

Alan Grayson: Is Anyone Minding…

Many Americans mistakenly believe the trillions of dollars to pay for the Obama administration’s unprecedented and historic government intervention, entitlements and social welfare is securely stashed away in a big safe somewhere in Washington. There is no vault and there is no cash; there is only “vapor paper” being created out of thin air. The Obama deficits are already projected to be more than $11 trillion or roughly equal to our entire national debt over our 233 year history; and he has barely gotten started. Since the sheer amount of this debt is so monumental, there will not be enough buyers at the Treasury auctions to absorb it. The Fed will be forced to buy its own paper. The U.S. Government seems to think they can solve our debt problem by creating more debt. Monetizing... Read More

Just Tax

I am encouraged that the younger people in our country are becoming painfully aware of the suffocating debt burden that our government is shackling them to; that can never be repaid despite inevitable tax increases. They have been betrayed. Share this article:  Read More

My name is Edward Redlich and I’m with The ComReal Companies of Miami. This year, The ComReal Companies celebrate its 30th year in South Florida’s commercial real estate market. ComReal continues to be a proud sponsor of this organization. Although we have invested in a few minutes to speak today about our company, I’d much rather allot my time to introduce a gentleman who is going to educate us on a much more important topic. The topic is “America’s anti-trade policies”. Mr. Neal Asbury is both an excellent communicator on the subject and a true visionary. Personally, I believe... Read More

Politics Puts Limits on International Trade

Politics Puts Limits on International Trade By Carl Cronan MIAMI-International trade continues to have an impact on the local industrial market, but landlords and developers can only grow that business as much as politics allow, and speakers at a local event last weak. The discussion was hosted by the Commercial Industrial Association of South Florida and featured local radio host Neal Asbury. Asbury advocates depoliticizing US trade policy and leveling the playing field for imports from all countries, similar to the North American Free Trade Agreement. He views the issue as a national one, even though Miami-Dade County is considered a global gateway to Florida and the rest of the country. “South Florida still has a very viable and active trade market,” Eric Swanson, executive vice president... Read More

THE LAST REQUEST OF A VIETNAM VET

The Vietnam War was painful. American soldiers who followed orders and pulled their triggers may have escaped Charlie’s bullets and booby traps, but they couldn’t avoid the psychological ambush their countrymen inflicted on their scared souls stateside. When they returned home, there were no parades, no hero’s welcomes, not even a thank-you. To some, home no longer felt like home. This is the story of one courageous Vietnam veteran. Ed Turner, known to his friends as E.T., was a heavyweight club fighter who became a gunner on a gunship called Spooky. Gunship duty was extremely dangerous. The planes were slow and low-flying, with little armor. The left cargo-bay door remained open as three Gatling guns fired 300 rounds per second into every square meter of a football field-size... Read More

So I said

So I said to him, “Barack, I know Abe Lincoln, and you ain’t Abe Lincoln.” You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. You cannot build character and courage by taking away people’s initiative and independence. You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves. ....Abraham Lincoln Share this article:  Read More

Mad Money

The Obama Administration came to DC town promising to spend everything and the kitchen sink. In this regard, they have not been a disappointment. Many Americans mistakenly believe the trillions of dollars to pay for Obama’s unprecedented and historic government intervention, entitlements and social welfare is securely stashed away in a big safe somewhere in Washington. There is no vault and there is no cash; there is only “vapor paper” being created out of thin air. Quantitative easing is a phrase that has come into the lexicon lately. When interest rates are at or near zero and the commercial banks are still not lending money, the Fed injects massive amounts of money into the economy through accounts held by the banks at the Federal Reserve. The Fed buys bank securities,... Read More

The Crumbling Third Pillar

Democracy, free enterprise and an unfettered media are the foundation of America’s incredible success. We could not have become the most powerful nation in the history of the world with one of these pillars missing or weakened. That is why the tectonic shift in how news is gathered and disseminated is so vitally important to our future. The ownership of our mainstream media has become more and more radicalized and concentrated, with a diminished number of news outlets and independent journalists. Almost all cable systems are owned by one of the major media conglomerates. Two-thirds of today’s newspapers are monopolies. What does this mean for ordinary Americans? Everything outside one’s personal thoughts and communications is determined by newsrooms increasingly influenced by political... Read More
