Do Energy Conservation Programs Save Money?

As the climate change industry continues to spend trillions of dollars over the idea that humans are somehow responsible for our climate changing over the millennia, presenting skewed data that favors their hypothesis, we continue to be forced to pay taxes for carbon credits and to subsidize with taxpayer dollars the solar and wind energy around the globe, receiving in return inadequate amounts of expensive energy that does nothing to address the energy needs of the planet and causes a multitude of other problems that affect the environment, humans, and animals.

Rent To Criminals—Or Else

Welcome murderers, rapists, and thieves as your tenants or you will face huge monetary penalties, the Obama administration said in a new threat aimed at the nation’s landlords.

Number D-1237 not “Bingo!” for Cruz or Trump

The gloating over Senator Ted Cruz’s Wisconsin win does nothing much more than throw up a wall of false hope, convincing supporters that a Cruz presidency is already in the bag.  Wisconsin notwithstanding,  Cruz is still a long way from the presidency and so is business mogul Donald Trump.

It’s not over until the fat lady sings and unfortunately in this case the fat lady is covertly warbling “Open Convention”.

Blasphemy Convictions Intensify in Sisi’s Egypt

Despite Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi’s many pluralistic words and gestures, which have won him much praise from the nation’s Christians and moderates, he appeases the Islamist agenda in one very clear way: by allowing the controversial defamation of religions law, colloquially known as the “blasphemy law,” to target Christians and moderates in ways arguably worse than under the Muslim Brotherhood and Morsi.

Property?

On or about January 27, 2016, in the District of Oregon, defendants SEAN ANDERSON and JAKE RYAN, aided and abetted by each other, did willfully and by means of excavation and the use of heavy equipment on lands of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, property of the United States, injure and commit a depredation against such property, specifically, an archaeological site considered sacred to the Burns Paiute Tribe, resulting in damage in an amount exceeding $1000, in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Sections 1361 and 2.

Economic Miseducation

I have taught basic principles of economics for thirty years to group after group of college students who were often cross-eyed, bored, running late, playing with their phones, angry that I gave them too many notes, “hard tests,” and too many assignments which interfered with their busy social lives.

The ‘Buh-Bye’ Bama Tour Hits Hanover

Commenter Truth Today,  who advises the 2,000 Hanover City residents, warned to stay away from all windows when Barack Obama’s motorcade is passing by to “just wave him goodbye for good” may be onto something.

America will “Feel the Bern” if Trump and Cruz don’t re-focus

Although the 18- 24-year-old tech-savvy millennials would never own up to it, they are the strategically chosen gullible for the Democrat “plant” known as Senator Bernie Sanders. 

“Rah-rah, Bernie!” was passed over for “Feel the Bern”, an election cliche gone viral over the Internet.

Bernie Gets One Right!

Senator Bernie Sanders, America’s self-proclaimed socialist and leading ABH (Anyone but Hillary!) proponent, frequently uses political language that can accurately be described as mythical, exaggerated, truth-challenged, and terribly biased spin, peppered liberally with outright lies.

Collapse of commodity prices exposes longstanding underperformance of Ontario and Atlantic Canada

TORONTO—The resilience of the Canadian economy during the global recession and its strong performance post-recession—which was largely rooted in the resource-intensive provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan, Newfoundland and Labrador, and British Columbia—masked weakness in Central and Atlantic Canada, particularly Ontario, finds a new study published today by the Fraser Institute, an independent non-partisan Canadian policy think-tank.

Andrea Mitchell: Hillary’s trustworthiness problem allowing Bernie to do real damage to her candidac

If you’d spent the last year listening to only left-wing journalists, you’d have a pretty rosy picture of Hillary Clinton.  Sure, there’s some concern about her status as a throwback candidate, and there’s an occasional acknowledgment of her scandals, but the criticism is fleeting. She is the rightful heir to the presidency, and any concerns are trivialities - most of them are cooked up by Republicans, and they’re easily addressed.

VIDEO: Emotional Ray Lewis goes off on Black Lives Matter for ignoring black-on-black crime

This is one of those posts where you’d only detract from its power if you said much, so I’m not going to say much. If you’re not a football fan and you don’t instantly recognize Ray Lewis, he recently retired after a certain Hall of Fame career with the Baltimore Ravens. He’s had his own scrapes with the law. He doesn’t claim to be a perfect man, but you can’t watch this and fail to recognize that he’s speaking directly from his heart.
