Determined to Waste Money on Catfish, Posted

Monday, July 30th - If you don’t remember the Federal Agriculture
Reform and Risk Management Act (FARRM), better known as the Farm Bill,
here’s a quick refresher: Put simply, the farm bill is an anathema to
free enterprise, limited government, and individual responsibility.
The House version (H.R. 6083) authorizes $957 billion in spending over
10 years, 80% of which will go towards food stamps. Despite erroneous
claims in the media regarding severe cuts to food stamps, this bill

Pensions Fail Simple Math, by John Ransom
There is a dirty secret about state entitlements that liberals don’t
want you to know. The collection of a state pension increases the
chances that a pensioner will live in poverty. That’s because money put
aside for state-guaranteed benefits can not be safely invested at rates
that provide for more than a modest retirement unless the state
subsidizes retirement benefits through taxes or if retirement savings
are invested in riskier, higher yielding investments. Since governments
are loath to raise ... read
