Had The Man Brains, He’d Be Dangerous

by Smitty What is this nonsense? “We’re not just going to be waiting for legislation in order to make sure that we’re providing Americans the kind of help they need. I’ve got a pen and I’ve got a phone,” Obama said Tuesday as he convened his first Cabinet meeting of the year. Obama continued: ”And […]

Another Community Organizer Non-Victory In New York

by Smitty Via Insty, Richard Epstein alludes to a bummer of a tale in New York: “After Winning a Raise, 175 Workers At a Queens Casino Lose Their Jobs.” That result would never have happened if the workers had won their raises by demonstrating higher levels of productivity to their employer, The Resorts World Casino.
