Bailout Tanks Global Stock Markets

October 6th, 2008 by Matthew Kowal | No Comments

As any conservative would have told you, the bailout is having the exact opposite of it’s intended effect. While its proponents now say that it will take some time for its benefits to become tangible, many are seeing it for the colossal failure that it is. Before the bailout, if just one CEO [...]


More Government Is Not The Answer

September 24th, 2008 by John Kaduk | No Comments

Everybody is talking about this massive bailout that congress is trying to get through.  And everybody is claiming we need more regulation and that the lack of regulation is what caused this credit mess.  What nobody is saying (except for a few enlightened conservatives) is the truth.  Too much government caused this crash.

Liberalism Vs. Conservatism

July 6th, 2008 by Matthew Kowal | 1 Comment

I was talking with a friend today and she admits she is politically apathetic, not by choice necessarily but she just doesn’t find the issues relevant to her.  The upcoming election will be the first presidential election she votes in so she is doing her best to become educated on the issues.  Finally she just [...]
