12 July 2008 - A Society of Whiners!
Former Senator Phil Gramm sparked a major controversy this past week by saying that we have become a nation of whiners.

08 July 2008 - Democrats Don’t Really Believe in Conservation
Suppose you have a limited resource. More is available, but you’d have to take measures that have have a risk (though only a risk) of ill effects to get it. It would take some time for the good effects to occur — the world doesn’t react instantaneously to a policy change — but everyone in [...]

04 July 2008 - Paul Mulshine on "Unaffordable, Unfathomable Housing Plan"
“Each town’s COAH committee has a dozen or so members, so when you multiply that by the 566 towns in New Jersey, you get … lemme get out my calculator. Oh yeah, you get an incalculable waste of time and money.” No doubt. You really do need to read the whole thing. And when you’re [...]

To understand your legislators, read their press releases. The PR for Senator Nia H.

Just when you think our politicians can’t get more disfunctional, they come up with this: Senate Bill 1166 proposes another tax to be levied on property owners. It will impose a municipal “fee” calculated on the average rainfall runoff. With this new source of funds, local authorities will be set up “to assess the potential [...]
