THE DUMBING DOWN OF AMERICA


            As I write this article the battle continues in Wisconsin between the Republican Governor, Scott Walker, the Republican controlled State Legislature, and the powerful teachers unions and their allies. At issue is the future of a state that faces a budget shortfall of billions, yet is required by state law to have a balanced budget.
            As is the case in many states across the nation, the financial problems are primarily due to outlandish salaries and benefits being paid by states to public employees, including teachers.

DISASTER - The U.S. Economy - 2008 to 2011

Two years ago on January 20th, Barack Obama was inaugurated as president of the United States and Democrats took control of the U.S. Senate and the House of Representatives. They did so with faith in a small group of radical socialists that they thought had the right plan. As it turns out, it was too much faith placed in too few with devastating results for the entire world economy. 

Are you better off today than you were two years ago?

AMERICANS - Where Are We?

by Dr. Del Tackett, 
author of the Truth Project



I’m taking a much-needed break—a week off to be with some Air Force buddies somewhere on the surface of this current planet.   Here are some hints: I swam with a sea turtle today; it is minus 20 degrees at my home, but 78 degree here; I stopped at a roadside stand and bought a delicious loaf of homemade mango bread; yesterday I saw three whales “exhaling” a large column of air and water…But the much more important question is, “Where are we?” Our country is somewhere—but where?
