I wish those jerks in Washington could tell the truth at least some of the time.

I’ve recently started reading Mr Mitchell’s columns here. I’ve started sharing them with friends and on Facebook. We all need to continue spreading the fire of liberty and economic sanity! Even a large fire started as a little flame as some point.

Mr. Schleifer, you have made a critical point about small voices. The real question we should be considering is how to increase the volume of that voice or add more voices singing the same song. The collectivists essentially own the educational system from top to bottom as well as most of the media. Mr. Mitchell’s singing in the wilderness might be music, but if no one is there to hear it, …?

How do we connect that same music with more ears?

How many times have you written almost this exact blog, Dan? We’ve been talking about Washington’s dishonest math for how many decades? Here’s one of my favorites: we had a surplus under Clinton. Really? How much money did we borrow from the so-called Social Security trust fund in order to have a so-called surplus.
Well, keep trying, though you are a small, still voice, crying in the wilderness.
