Obama Administration Energy Obstructionism
I have in the past written a number of articles on the current administrations “anti-energy” policy. Regardless of what this administration says, it is imperative to watch what they do because their actions are generally diametrically opposite to what they say! Consider the recent discovery by ExxonMobil of the Julia oil field in the Gulf of Mexico. The field is believed to hold more than 700 million barrels of oil and gas equivalent. Exploiting...

Transportation prevarication
On August 31, 2011 President Obama urged Congress to extend the Surface Transportation Bill saying that if Congress failed to do so “over 4,000 workers will be immediately furloughed without pay”. To understand why the claimed loss of jobs is questionable one has to examine how those jobs are funded. According to the Congressional Budget Office, funding for transportation construction projects mostly comes from the Highway Trust Fund which is... [Read More...]
How Long Can We Ignore Our National Debt?
Editors note: This article contains excerpts from “A Short Primer on the National Debt” by John Steele Gordon. To read the original article, CLICK HERE. It continues to amaze me how grown men and women in Congress can continue down the path to disaster by taking no serious action on our debt issue.

Unpublished Letter to the Editor of WSJ
This letter was not published by the Wall Street Journal so we are publishing it here on our we website. It is a very well-stated list of concerns about the Debt Ceiling legislation: Dear Editor: What is the reader to believe? Paul Ryan’s “Where’s Your Budget, Mr.President?” (Aug 3) fairly asks the president that question as the president and the Congress have pushed huge new costly programs like ObamaCare but they have not produced a budget...
