The word "progessive" sounds good, because it makes you think of "progress." But since it is slowly taking America (and the rest of the world) away from the principles of liberty, private property, and limited government upon which the nation was founded (and which made the United States the greatest engine of strength and prosperity for all the world's peoples in the history of the human race), progressivism definitely isn't progress....

It is not so much for the mounting costs of electric power that people are turning to solar power and other renewable energy sources but more because of the adverse effects of continued use of fossil fuel in generating power.

If the progressives get their way, your efforts to do your best will not only be unappreciated, they'll be opposed. The mass victim mentality that will dominate the society will replace "Work hard to get ahead" with "Why do you think you can have something I don't have?"... and "It's important to make a good impression" with "Why are you trying to make the rest of us look bad?" When "fairness" reigns, personal excellence will become a bad thing....

MNCs are spreading like a web in developing country like India. The big question before us is whether MNCs play positive or negative role in developing countries? Generally the governments of developing countries don’t keep control on the working of MNCs, which is major fault on their side. MNCs can be helpful for developing countries only when they are kept under control. We should not give incentives to the MNCs only because they are coming from some powerful advanced countries.

I don’t know about you guys but I’m getting very sick and tired of having to spend an unreasonable percentage of my monthly income just to drive around. Living in California certainly does not help the situation, either! Some people commute over 90 miles (each way) just to get to work. I guess I’m one of the lucky ones, since I only commute 25 miles to get to work.

The Economic Justice requires that the national capital should be distributed equally among the people for not only smooth operation of economy but also elimination of poverty. Both Adam Smith and Karl Marx misguided the world in the name of Capitalsim and Communism.
