Mike Ciandella: Matt Damon's Anti-Fracking Movie Flops
Bad investment for United Arab Emirates. Matt Damon’s much hyped anti-fracking film “Promised Land”
has failed to make the impact that its producers and environmental
groups had hoped for. As of January 20, “Promised Land” has raked in a
whopping total of $7,542,000 since it opened on December 28, according
to Box Office Mojo. According ... MORERand Paul Tells Hillary Clinton: "I Would Have Fired You"
by Alexis Levinson. Republican Sen. Rand Paul said Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had been negligent in conducting her job, and said that if he were president, he would have relieved her of her post. Paul said that the fact that she was not aware of the requests of more security for the U.S. Embassy in Libya constituted “a failure of leadership” and said it ... MOREThomas Sowell: Do Gun Control Laws Control Guns?
They do not control crime. The gun control controversy is only the latest of many issues to be debated almost solely in terms of fixed preconceptions, with little or no examination of hard facts. Media discussions of gun control are dominated by two factors: the National Rifle Association and the Second Amendment. But the over-riding ... MORESin Tax Wars! 60.9% Of All Smokes In NY Go Untaxed
High taxes push consumers toward smugglers. With all the nonsense that’s been going on in the Empire State of late – especially the Governor’s successful gun rantings - I’d begun to worry that New York was doomed for mediocrity. But for better or worse, you just can’t keep the government of this state down. If we can’t lead in freedom, ... MOREAaron Klein: Homeland Security Is Hoarding Ammo
Scarcity created for everyone else. Will the U.S. soon face a critical situation in which the federal government– primarily the Department of Homeland Security – possesses an ammunition surplus while local and state authorities face ammunition shortages and backlogs in purchasing more rounds? Current trends could find the federal government with a ... MOREWelfare State Swells During Obama's First Term
Food stamp recipients increased 11,113 per day. One way to mark the legacy of a presidency is to tally statistics, and at least one stat is not very flattering for President Obama: the number of Americans on food stamps has grown by 11,133 people every day during his first term. In 2009, when Obama took office, recipients of SNAP ... MOREMelissa Gira Grant: The War On Sex Workers
An unholy alliance of feminists, cops, and conservatives. On August 30, a 19-year-old woman in Ann Arbor, Michigan, was
arrested after a prospective client called 911 on her. He claimed
she raised her fee for services after their initial online contact.
The cops took her away in handcuffs. There’s nothing particularly unusual about this story, ... MOREEmily Miller: The Era Of Big Government Is Renewed
Bigger government is answer to all problems. President Obama may have used the word “together” seven times in his
inauguration speech on the West Front of the Capitol on Monday, but he
didn’t mean it. He spoke to unify those who agree with his plan to
expand the federal government, not bring Republicans to the ... MORERand Paul Says GOP Must 'Evolve And Adapt'
by Mackenzie Weinger. Sen. Rand Paul said on Sunday that he will make a decision on a 2016
presidential run within two years and plans to be a force in the
refashioning the Republican Party regardless of whether he seeks the
Oval Office. “We will continue to pursue and, you know, try to
make that decision over the next two years or so,” the Kentucky ... MORESteve Chapman: The War On Pot Is Not A Safe Bet
Unhealthy policy may go up in smoke. As recreational drugs go, marijuana is relatively benign. Unlike alcohol, it doesn't stimulate violence or destroy livers. Unlike tobacco, it doesn't cause lung cancer and heart disease. The worst you can say is that it produces intense, unreasoning panic. Not in users, but in critics. Those critics have less influence ... MOREWalter E Williams: Experts Aren't Deities
Let's look at experts. Sir Isaac Newton (1642-1727) was a mathematician and scientist. Newton has to be the greatest and most influential scientist who has ever lived. He laid the foundation for classical mechanics, and his genius transformed our understanding of science, particularly in the areas of physics, mathematics and astronomy. What's not widely known ...
