Michael Steele for RNC Chair?

There have been credible speculations that either Michael Steele or Newt Gingrich are interested in the RNC chair.

It is important at this juncture to have a vivacious leader full of ideas to lead the torn Republican party. My idealistic vision would be of a Republican party that appeals to conservatives and libertarians and not the antiquated fat cats inside the beltway. Republicans like John McCain do not win elections because they do not inspire or invigorate Americans. People who perpetuate the same corruption, government spending, government intervention and regulation are no different than the liberals that threaten this country.

There needs to be a set of agendas that people can get excited about! So while the prospects of a legitimate third party are still bleak, we have to rely on the GOP to rebuild and include people that want basic things from our government.

1) Make it smaller
2) Less intervention
3) Cut spending by reducing departments, cabinents, etc that lead to corruption
4) Lower taxes
5) Promote individual responsibility
6) Promote trade
7) Minimize military involvement

As of now, I bet most people have no idea who is running the RNC and why would they? The difference between the RNC and the DNC is the first letter.

That is why I support Michael Steele for RNC chair. I encourage you to google and research this man. A true conservative, someone who worked his ass off to be where he is and will provide leadership to a much need party.

I think Newt Gingrich is equally qualified, but he has too much baggage.

Here is an example:

The 2009 credit boom is coming to an end.

The credit expansion boom of 2009 will eventually go down as yet another period of credit expansion promoted by the Fed that will have lead to another predictable bust.   Today, it will be interesting to examine how the various levels of production are behaving under years and years of artificial interest rate suppression.  It will also be helpful to look at charts and graphs examining the business cycle theory and the impact of time preference as taught by Mises. For starters, those new to the concept - a very brief paraphrasing of the general idea. Under a healthy functioning market people's consumer patterns impact their savings.  More consumption equals less saving and less consumption more saving.  In order to progress the society must save such that it can make investments in machinery, equipment, technology, etc if it hopes to increase the capacity of production.   Sure ,you can harvest 10 coconuts a day, consume them by night and repeat the process.  You can also defe

What is wrong with this country?

I was browsing the latest IBD poll and it finally struck me. I had this idea brewing for the past few weeks now and this particular poll hit a nerve. What jumped out was the age group and who they are likely voting for. Obama / McCain 18-24: 74% 21% The rest of the age groups are more or less even with ages 65+ leaning more for McCain. Those folks should probably avoid leaning - hazardous to their health. Now, if you are a member of this group and are part of the 74% you are probably feeling good about yourself. If you are in the 21% then you are probably used to feeling desperate and angry that your peers ostracize you as if you were the next coming of the bubonic plague. But this number is very telling. Showing to us that a large group of freshly minted liberals, on average still in college, is in a very good position to influence these elections. Enthralled by the concept of "what they want the world to be" and their utopian ideals they hammer their message to anyone willi

401k Takeover Proposal. IRAs in danger?

Just read a piece that made my blood boil. The story is from Carolina Journal, but I will paste the first paragraph below. Even if you currently do not have a 401k, this is the most dangerous proposal I have ever heard. The only similar example I can think of, would be the gold seizure under FDR. If this proposal becomes legitimate, you MUST write to your local representative, congressman, senator, etc. This will be absolutely crippling to our economy as investors will stage a mass exodus out of the market. If you want a demonstration of this in action, look at Argentina. They just did something very similar. I will keep my eyes on the story and will add further information to demonstrate just how dangerous this is. November 04, 2008 RALEIGH — Democrats in the U.S. House have been conducting hearings on proposals to confiscate workers’ personal retirement accounts — including 401(k)s and IRAs — and convert them to accounts managed by the Social Security Administration. Triggered by the
