- silexiaThe root cause of America's healthcare problems is the high prices that are caused by an artificial constraint on new doctors allowed to be licensed each year. Plus all the other over-regulation.
- "Trump has long used tragedies to advance immigration policy goals"
The far left Guardian neglects to mention that they do the exact same thing... using tragedy to advance their goal of disarming citizens.
- Romney says, "No one countenances cutting benefits for current or near retirees. But Social Security and Medicare benefits for future retirees should be means-tested — need-based, that is to say — and the starting age for entitlement payments should be linked to American life expectancy."
This unfortunately has been the philosophy of those in power for the last 50 years... basically they want to subsidize benefits for themselves at the expense of our children and grandchildren.
America used to be a country where people tried to make the future better for others, now it is a place where everyone tries to steal as much as they can for themselves. Doctors artificially limit supply to keep their rates high while increasing suffering for others, the patent system allows trolls to rob those who actually work, and every special interest tries to rob everyone else. We are doomed.
- I am glad to see an American leader fight back against the theft of American assets. Americans invested huge amounts into Venezuela, only to have it stolen by a socialist dictator.
- I founded and continue to run one of the largest digital agencies in the world, Coalition Technologies. I also am a self taught programmer.
I learned marketing when I started my first business, mowing lawns. I went door to door knocking and asking to mow people's lawns. Door to door sales is very hard, but you learn a lot about your customers fast.
I majored in business and my marketing classes there were a waste of time, taught by people who had never actually successfully marketed anything.
I learned a ton working at my first agency, doing web development and SEO and PPC.
I probably learned the most launching my own little e-commerce websites, including one selling digital auto gauges and another gathering mortgage leads for a buddy I partnered with.
- Government over-regulation is the number one driver of increasing heating costs.
- The USD will devalue 5-10% further.
Flock and other government tools for watching and controlling you will expand.
Big companies will expand their regulatory capture, especially in medical care. Fingers will continue to be pointed at health insurance as the problem while the real problem of an artificially limited supply of doctors goes unaddressed.
Government agencies will continue their slow bloat as no mechanism exists for government like bankruptcy in the private sector.
Patent trolls will expand their lawsuits and extort more legitimate businesses.
The far left will assassinate more Republican leaders.
- Scammers should get the death penalty.
- When you take on investors, this always seems to happen as they saddle your company with debt. My company has been bootstrapped from day one with zero debt. Sixteen years later, financially very healthy and deliver great customer results.
- Is there anywhere in the world people can go and find freedom from big government?
- What alternatives do we have to youtube for creators?
- These colleges are raising the next generation of lying elites. Government funds should not go to these schools - most of the money ends up in administrators pockets. If you want good research, fund researchers directly, not through universities.
