Who wins under Obamacare?
Submitted by Mark K on Fri, 08/21/2009 - 23:02If you've been paying attention, you've read that the Pharmaceuticals have been cutting deals with the White House, to avoid big bites by Congress. Why does this remind me of defense contractors? Well, it's the same reason. Government contracts, which are uncompetitive, MUST be profitable. Why, do you ask?

Race, in the American sense...
Submitted by Mark K on Wed, 08/19/2009 - 09:51One thing I love about our American psyche, is that we usually give the benefit of the doubt. When confronted with evidence of something wrong, most people are called on the carpet and asked... "Can you explain this?". And it is generally meant as it appears. We're not the kind that presume that people are incompetent, bad, malevolent, or worse when we know little of the circumstances.
We tend to have this same kind of 'benefit of the doubt' when it comes to history.
