An insightful resource for understanding why Republican politicians haven’t ended the welfare state in all their years in office is a free book called “The Conservative Nanny State.”
Some examples in the book demonstrate how big-government conservatives work to transfer wealth from the poor and exploited. The author, economist Dean Baker, described how [...]
The Glenn Heights, Texas, city council is considering an increase in property taxes of about $136 a year on an average home, according to the city. We successfully saved Haltom City residents over $500,000 last week by speaking out. It’s the principle of the thing, I figure. Everyone on the board currently supports one [...]
