Persistent Poverty in America Part III: How to Alleviate It
By Brian Anderson, Contributing Editor

The Keynesian Fallacy
By Brian Anderson, Contributing Editor
It is morally objectionable that President Obama insists on using federal deficit spending to apply failed leftist theories to the current economic situation since future generations will be responsible to repay the debt.

Federal Spending is Pushing America Further Right
By Brian Anderson, Contributing Editor
November 2010 was a rebuke of the Democrats' spending fiasco. And unless they somehow change their immense-government ideology, 2012 will continue to reveal just how deep the disapproval of the left’s spending philosophy is.

By Brian Anderson, Contributing Editor
Supporters of Obamacare cite the Commerce Clause as Constitutional justification for the law's enormous reach into an industry that represents one-sixth of our economy. Not so fast.

Obama Could Learn a Few Things from Germany
By Brian Anderson, Contributing Editor
In both the US and Europe central government stimuli have failed to create the speedy recovery that leftist leaders promised. Many in the US understand and many are realizing in Europe that Keynesian theory doesn't work when it's applied to real problems. Thus, it is pertinent to note that the country which took the most conservative, non-Keynesian path to recovery has recovered far better than the others.

The Colorado Election: Freedom Advanced Despite Outside Interests and Split GOP
By Brian Anderson, Contributing Editor
The election results in Colorado were surprising given the success of the Republican Party throughout American. Coloradans elected a Democrat Gubernatorial candidate and a Democrat Senatorial candidate in the state’s most high-profile races this year, which were major victories for the Democrat Party. A majority of Coloradans, however, supported freedom instead of the Left. The Left only won in safe districts, on multiparty ballots or with misleading negative advertisements that were produced with massive infusions of money from outside interests.

Race Relations in America: Why the Left is Wrong
By Brian Anderson, Contributing Editor
The excitement with which so many Americans voted for Barrack Obama carried over to his inauguration and continued through the first half of his first year in office. Many people asked if America could finally let go of its racist past. Sadly, political parties and leftist ideologies that base public policies on social and economic classifications will never be able to view human beings as individuals—they will always view individuals as members of some group—and overcome racial classifications. Although many liberals have good intentions and want to help others, their policies have perpetuated tension among social groups. Such policies have done more harm than good to the very communities that they try to help.
