    Intellectual Property, Software, and Piracy

    Software manufacturers have foisted the impression on the public that software is intellectual property, but there are so many differences between the paradigms of intellectual property and software that only the naive could ever take such claims seriously.

    Balderdashing Education Bashing

    When Calvin Coolidge said "The business of America is business," he and very few if any others knew just how deep this sentiment would sink into the American consciousness. Now it seems apparent that the way business thinks has muscled every other kind of thought process out of the American mind. The unfortunate result is that if no business solution exists to an American ailment, it festers into an incurable American disease. Read: Balderdashing Education Bashing Read

    Killer Country

    America is a killing field! It has been for a very long time. Historically, the oppressed have killed their oppressors. In America the oppressed kill each other. American politicians claim that America is the free-world's leader. But what other country would want to follow America down this road? It is noteworthy that since 1789, approximately 70 nations have become democratic, but not a single one has copied the American model. Whom are we leading where? Perhaps only ourselves to perdition.

    Are Settled Class Action Suits Scams?

    Thinking about filing a class action suit? First find a lawyer who understands that if s/he is unable to negotiate a substantial award for each member of the settlement class, you will insist that the suit be taken to trial; otherwise, you are merely involving yourself in a lawyerly boondoggle in which the lawyers will use your misery to enrich themselves. If your lawyer is not going to get you and your colleagues substantial awards, at least make sure that s/he does not get any either. Read: Are Settled Class Action Suits Scams? Read

    Dumb, Dumber, and Dumbest in Higher Education

    As an elderly, former university professor, I am deeply anguished whenever I come across shameful academic writing. Such writing not only exposes the inability of the writer but it exhibits the extent of decline in American university teaching and is a symptom of a decadent civilization. Institutions that employ these writers have abandoned the classical educational ideals of truth, goodness, and beauty for belief, greed, and exploitation. And not only Americans but the whole world is paying a h Read: Dumb, Dumber, and Dumbest in Higher Education Read

    Nobel? That's No Prize

    Excellent journalism was never a priority of Joseph Pulitzer's, and the prizes reflect it. So does the mainstream press which is yellower than ever in both the conventional journalistic sense and the colloquial sense of cowardly. Even worse, however, are the Nobels. They are almost always given to those committed to Western civilization and Capitalism. So now Obama has gotten the prize. Why was it awarded to him? Because he is a protector of the economic status quo and a hegemonist—a true child Read: Nobel? That's No Prize Read

    Mortgage Anyone?

    Why are the standard terms for mortgages 15 and 30 years? Could it be because downturns in the American economy have occurred on an average of once every 14.5 years? When a buyer defaults on a loan after paying on it for 14 years, the lender gets the house for free, sells it again, and nets a small fortune or an investment of zero. Wouldn't you like to find a way of doing that? Read: Mortgage Anyone? Read

    20-20's John Fossil (sic)

    John Stossel has claimed that governmental attempts to ameliorate malevolent conditions should be curtailed if not entirely prohibited so that people could be left alone to solve their own problems. No government is not a solution to bad government; good government is. A propagandist is not an honest man. Although everyone (perhaps) is entitled to his own opinion, no one has a right to present it as fact. Not even John Stossel. Read: 20-20's John Fossil (sic) Read

    Everywhere Arms Races

    Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, and President Obama claim that both North Korea and Iran must be prevented from developing nuclear capabilities to prevent arms races in North East Asia and the Near East. But the United States of America began the international nuclear arms race more than sixty years ago and has never taken the task of eliminating nuclear weapons seriously. So yes, as ye sow, so shall ye reap! Why should anyone expect otherwise. Read: Everywhere Arms Races Read
