“To each their own” That’s the beauty of what America once was … at least before all this “fair share” nonsense infected our national consciousness.
Now your “own” – assuming you even work – is increasingly not yours, flowing instead in increasing amounts to an increasingly dumb, increasingly needy, increasingly entitled (and increasingly large) segment of [...]

OUR WEEKEND AGENDA? LEAF PEEPING AND ANTIQUING
What does the state of South Carolina’s most notorious political animal do on the weekend before a major election? Leaf-peeping and antiquing, of course.

Happy Memorial Day Weekend
It’s Memorial Day weekend, people … and since S.C. Gov. Nikki Haley and her staff have decided to get an early taxpayer-funded start to the long weekend, we figured we would do the same.
Ironically back in the day – when this website was aggressively promoting then-Rep. Haley and assailing her status quo enemies – the [...]

Wilkes: I’m Thrilled To Vote For Ron Paul
By Mande Wilkes || “Everything old is new again.”
Espousing principles that are at once classic and contemporary, Ron Paul is revolutionizing Americana by reminding us both of democracy’s power and its limits. Indeed, Paul’s political legacy will be as much about his victories as his ultimate defeat – and make no mistake, he will lose [...]
Martie Streit: “I’m Voting For Ron Paul Because …”
Dear Editor,
I’m voting for Ron Paul because our government has gotten so out of control that a status quo administration does not have the ability or fortitude to reign it in. I see Ron Paul as a non partisan candidate in that he can drum support from both/all parties and most importantly, the American people. [...]
Paul Fallavollita: “I’m Voting For Ron Paul Because …”
Dear Editor,
I’m voting for Ron Paul in the South Carolina primary because he represents a current within the Republican Party and the Right in general in the United States that has largely been forgotten or misrepresented. Many Americans have short memories and too often suffer from the “arrogance of modernity,” failing to fully question how [...]
James Bernheimer: “I’m Voting For Ron Paul Because …”

Our nation is mired in three foreign wars that Dr. Paul warned against, remains in the midst of an economic collapse that [...]

Bruce Yandle Gets It …
In commenting on the latest economic output numbers for the Palmetto state, Clemson University economist Bruce Yandle (above) offered his thoughts on what South Carolina leaders can do to make our state more competitive.
While Yandle didn’t specifically embrace any of the tax, spending, academic or structural reforms that this website has been pushing (for years), [...]
Drugged Monkeys

Conducted at the University of Minnesota, this “study” was funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), which is part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). In [...]
