Many people form opinions from brief television bits crafted by biased “news” media, or merely from previous opinions. These articles cut through the complexities and misconceptions to simplify a variety of important, unclear issues. The public has been suckered into giving up their opportunity to achieve and prosper in exchange for free lunches and subsidies paid by others, creating a less productive, stagnant and almost bankrupt welfare state. In the process, the citizens and states have permitted big, expensive governments to rob us of many of our constitutional rights. We have become dependents of the career politicians, ensuring their re-election. Our savings will be wiped out by inflation, and our children and grandchildren must pay our bills.
