    Why government should always have more power than private business.

    Operations vs. Support. Though the latter does not have "half their paycheck stolen to the investor's profit" as you suggest.

    Why government should always have more power than private business.

    You left out the Unions. Since you are using Caterpillar as your example you need to also discuss the concessions made by the AFL-CIO and the IAM and why.

    reclaiming a well in the yard

    If you are fortunate enough to have an existing casing, you can get a drop-in kit for under 1K. Most shallow wells these days use sch 120 threaded pvc, so 2 people can install it easily. I don't know what 2" ductile iron costs these days but I imagine it is pretty steep.

    reclaiming a well in the yard

    Depends on the pump. For a well that is 20' or less, 1 1/4" to 2" is fairly standard. Do you know if there is an existing casing?

    Church Yesterday.......

    Not uncommon at this time of year for churches to inject a little patriotism in the services. However… Onward is an English processional. Re-read the first line: “Onward, Christian soldiers, marching as to war…” It is not advocating marching off to war. All of the metaphors are just that...

    Tomorrow , I have substance abuse class

    Happening more and more. I ran into the same thing a few years back. Out of the blue I get a letter stating "changes" to my policy that required stuff like this simply because I was affiliated with installing infrastructure. Cleared it up by explaining I was the owner, not the contractor, but...

    October Surprise: Will Israel Attack Iran Before the Election?

    The F-16 acquisition is the thing to key in on. The Haaretz article claims that at least one has been transferred from Venezuela which is a big no-no in the eyes of Uncle Sam to the point that Venezuela was told in 2006 not to do so without written consent. Seems they have gone ahead and...

    10 Problems with American Education & How to Fix Them

    There is a lot of overlap from one point to the next. By my reading you actually have 5-6 points to your argument rather than 10. As you say this is an article you are writing, my first question would be: who are you writing this article for?

    Jimmy Carter Steps Up For The Constitution

    “Globalist” is the key word. IMO, he is just maintaining the role and showing that he is still worthy of his Nobel prize. "Stepping up for the Constitution" might be stretching it though I note your irony. Of course, another reason might be that the Obama camp is unwilling to give his...
