Pandering will sink us, will weaken our foundations and our unique culture; a culture of tolerance yet of logic, of equality but also of independence. It is our behavior (and not our thoughts) that should be the real issue.  How we treat each other, whether we abuse or respect each other, whether we acknowledge all [...]

For those who subscribe to small business and independent entrepreneurs (the “fishing rod” idea) and not big government (the “fish” idea) as the catalyst for economic recovery and job creation, I have a few game changing suggestions that will also save America hundreds of billions in tax collections, in accounting costs, reduction of fraud, and [...]

It is a case of confused identity; it too is really a case of essential honesty. Hamas in Gaza recently swapped one Israeli for 1000 plus convicted Hamas and PLO murderers and felons. Gilad Shalit, young Israeli border guard, naive and innocent, probably never killed a bird, a cat never mind taken a human life. [...]

Solving the Housing Crisis

November 5, 2010

It may be simpler than the banks would have us believe. In places like Phoenix and Las Vegas, home prices have fallen by up to 50% from their peak. In Arizona and Nevada, more than 50% of mortgages are in negative equity. Yet when banks foreclose, they receive an average discount of 35% below the [...]

Media-Hangover

July 15, 2010

Barack Obama, for what it’s worth, is certainly conducting a consequential presidency. Already history-making in character, Obama’s health care “reforms” and his appeasement-happy foreign policy are game-changers in content as well.

China gives all of $1 million (that’s one-tenth of one cent per Chinese citizen) to the Haiti relief effort, while the United States gives a still-too-modest $100 million (plus materials, support, manpower).

Is American-born Jewish liberalism pushing us, lemming-like, into the morally opaque sea of self-defeating multiculturalism? This may be the defining question for contemporary American Jewry.
