    North Korea War Fever

    Not in Austin they ain't. It's understandable that the young new guy wants to show how tough he is, yada, yada, yada. But the real problem is whether he knows where the line is that he can't cross. AND what the Obama administration would do if he crosses it. MY guess? Nothin', a lot of...

    Texas Bill to Vaccinate Children Without Parents Consent

    The OP brings up an interesting question though, if the taxpayers have to pay for your health insurance then shouldn't the gov't be able to tell you what you can eat, drink, wear, do and not do? If you refuse, then shouldn't we cancel your "right" to health insurance?

    McConnels secret plan to cut off health insurance for millions

    Kinda reminds me of the democrats holding secret meetings behind closed doors with no repubs to get the monstrosity passed in the 1st place.

    US Corporate Tax Revenue

    According to the Tax Policy Center, in 2011 the US Gov't received about $181 billion in corp taxes. I say BFD, if I was running the place I'd offer any new business a tax free startup period of 5 years, and after that I'd require them and all current businesses to pay a flat tax of 10%. No...
