Trump Says Puerto Rico Set Back Our Budget – What’s Your Take?

Trump has come under fire for saying that PR has set our country’s budget back, but we’ve been in trouble for decades. Today we are mired in a mess that our politicians of both parties have created; unbelievable public debt, excessive taxation stifling our economy, entitlements well on their way to insolvency, poor inner-city schools and unaffordable higher education, and the list goes on and on. The solution to most of our problems is a return to capitalistic approaches to these numerous problems. The moral sanctity of capitalism remains intact. It has lifted up millions from poverty and despair. Its nemesis, socialism, with its siren call for unlimited gifts for all, has given rise too frequently to tyranny and the deaths of millions at its worst, and poverty and economic stagnation at its best.

Ring In Fall With A Great Read!

As the fall season and semester is gearing up, it is important for your student to have all of the resources they need to succeed —

My book is about the future, and the readers I wish to attract are the younger generations, and especially those people attracted to liberal, progressive and socialistic ideals. The young tend to reject capitalism because anti-capitalism is all they’ve been taught. Thus, they believe business is in the business of making money, and not helping the poor or the environment. They have established views on the horrors of greed. Millennials (ages 18-34) are soon to be the nation’s largest voting block. Focus groups have shown that most millennials do not understand what Socialism is; usually thinking that it means social justice and equality. My book is an attempt to explain the tenets of capitalism; small government with low taxes and minimal regulation, primacy of the individual, freedom, private ownership of means of production, and open markets and competition to give the consumers goods and services of the most value at the lowest cost.

I begin my book laying a foundation of economic ideas and definitions, which in themselves are not hard to understand, but lie outside the common vernacular and current political discourse, thus may seem foreign to the reader. Yet when thought about, allow the rest of what I’ve written later in the book to be more easily understood.

I have put some emphasis on health care, as my working life as a busy medical doctor and radiologist evolved through periods of high inflation, immense technical change and never-ending threats of malpractice lawsuits gives me some special insights into the health care debate. This background gives me credibility to offer views I hope you will take seriously.

I offer my book as an alternative to the Progressive agenda, which is one of the forms of socialism which Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama embraced. While the liberal mindset has engulfed the main news outlets, college campuses, and roughly 50% of the electorate, I find it difficult to believe that the average liberal thinking citizen can really believe in the Progressive beliefs. The Progressive Party of Teddy Roosevelt’s second run for President, was dwarfed by Woodrow Wilson’s Progressive agenda. I’d wager that the average citizen has little understanding of Progressive dogma, especially when it comes to calling the founder’s Declaration of Independence irrelevant to today’s world, or to consider the U.S. Constitution as worthy only if it can be easily modified and “modernized.” The Progressive values the huge centralized government over the federal division of power between the States and Washington. Their egalitarian sense of equality fits their support for income redistribution. In their eyes, the individual becomes diminished while the masses grow in importance, though they do make exceptions for the elite.

Gas Shortage, Hurricanes and Forest Fires — How to Help Our Nation & Debt

Hurricane Harvey, Hurricane Irma and forest fires are sweeping the nation. Citizens are getting frantic and trying to stock up on food, water and gasoline. With the nation in serious debt and citizens losing hundreds of thousands in these natural disasters, here is my take on the nation’s debt —

Now, since basically no one noticed when Nixon took us off the gold standard (me included), I see no reason to try and argue the case for returning to a gold standard by trying to educate the electorate on this matter. Rather, we just need to educate a presidential candidate and influence his pick for Secretary of Treasury. Ideally, a Secretary who understands this subject. Then we need to elect members of Congress that believe in the sanity of a gold standard, and act on it. And that’s the end of my sermon.

What are the upsides of returning the dollar’s link to gold?

(1) No more inflation, which benefits savers, i.e., the value of money put into savings is “protected” from eroding away through inflation.

(2) Businesses that plan to expand would now be able to reliably predict future expenses, thus stimulation of business expansion.

Entrepreneurship is King in the Capitalistic System – Here’s Why

Under a capitalistic system, the entrepreneur is the king, and it is essential in advancing opportunity and prosperity for all. Thus, I have explained in my book what entrepreneurs are, why what they do is morally correct, and why they should be embraced. Appreciation of market-based solutions is essential to understanding capitalism, i.e. where each individual makes his or her choice based on what they are willing to spend or are able to afford and what they consider gives them the most value. Conversely, central planning, like solutions from Washington, can in no way offer the right solutions to satisfy everyone.
