Taxes are more than just a way for a government to raise revenue; they are also a deterrent, like fines. We tax labor, heavily. Labor should never be discouraged, especially as jobs continue to be lost to more efficient mechanical or computer processes. We need to make human labor more […]

I was raised Christian. In College as an engineering major and lover of science, I became Atheist but quickly realized I was really Agnostic. I could not claim to be wise enough to say that we were not created. We could be someone’s science experiment, because we would do the […]

Some of the greatest minds that ever existed were vegan. It’s a smart thing to do for yourself and for our planet/culture. Nothing will benefit human health and increase the chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet. ~ Albert Einstein Our task […]

In 30 years 70% of our jobs will be replaced by machines. Everyday companies are finding ways to replace workers with machines and software.

Without welfare there would be vast starvation and homelessness in America, so we can’t just pull out the rug, but welfare doesn’t offer the right incentives and teaches the individual nothing practical. Even the source of the money, other […]
