Quasi-Libertarianism in Action:

Gene Cranick of rural Obion County in Tennesee had the opportunity to pay $75 per year for fire department coverage from the nearby city of South Fulton. He was mailed a letter every year at renewal time, and even got a follow-up phone call when he didn't send in his $75 by the due date. "I thought they'd come out and put it out, even if you hadn't paid your $75, but I was wrong" he says. Now he and many others are upset that the FD let his house burn to the ground. He even says he offered to pay the full costs of putting out the fire if the FD would come out, but was told it was too late.

And Now, From the NO KIDDING, REALLY?! Department...

The government has now admitted that health care spending under the "reform" bill will be higher than if the bill hadn't been passed. "Oh, but just by a little bit, you see, and we get all those other people insured." It hasn't even taken effect yet and they're admitting this? You can bet your best-loved possession they'll keep revising the numbers up bit-by-bit till (maybe) they are telling the truth... They know full well that a full up-front disclosure would have quashed chances of the bill passing - or else have risked a real revolution in so doing (not just the one that's expected at the polls this fall).

Chevy Trucks: The Real Truth

By now you've probably seen those Chevy ads proclaiming that their trucks are the "most dependable, longest-lasting trucks on the road". As a long standing, strongly-biased Ford fan, I'm here to - confirm their claims?!

3 Reasons the “Ground Zero Mosque” Debate Makes No Sense

Please go and read the article yourself, but for your convenience, here is a synopsis: 1) They don't want to build it at "ground zero", 2) It isn't a Mosque, and 3) Far from being illegal, the Bill of Rights protects their ability to build it. Amen, Gladstone.
