The Importance Of A Permanent Tax Policy

A permanent tax policy is important for financial stability. With a permanent tax policy, citizens can budget for their greatest consistent liability better. In a previous post entitled, “The Government Encourages Small Business Owners To Fire Employees” I discussed how my friend Zach let go of one of his employees to make room to pay […]

2011 Income Tax Rates: Raise Taxes On Millionaires Not Us

Here’s a look at the 2011 income tax rats when Obama was President. President Obama’s State of The Union address was well delivered.  He said almost everything right – from restoring spending discipline to improving education to allowing everyone access to affordable health care.  The one thing President Obama didn’t say correctly was regarding taxation.

Unemployment Checks Are The Best Form Of Economic Stimulus

Unemployment checks were a great way to help stimulate the economy during the 2008-2009 financial crisis. Unemployment checks were pumped out into the economy in 2020 during the coronavirus pandemic to help save the economy again.

Does My Vote Matter? The Electoral College Is Not A Good System

Every two to four years we have government elections and every two to four years I wonder the same thing, “Does my vote matter?” In California, we have two Gubernatorial candidates Meg Whitman (R) and Jerry Brown (D) who have the most vicious attack ads I’ve ever seen. Their ads make them BOTH sound unappealing,

Why Is Everybody Leaving Obama For Someone Else?

Why is everybody leaving Obama for someone else? This was the question I raised on October 11, 2010 when people started leaving. It’s interesting, because we kind of only think that many people left Trump during his administration. Despite persistent insistence of economic improvement, President Obama has lost more than half of his key economic
