COMMENTARY: Consolidation is inevitable, so quit whining

A local news outlet wrote an editorial Tuesday, citing they were not convinced on the issue of consolidation. I guess none of the editorial staff at Hillsboro's The Journal-News understand the whole idea of consolidation, more or less the definition of it. The word gets tossed around a lot, from science and technology to economics, but the definition of consolidation is simply put: the merging or integration of many items into one Consolidations have taken place many times in the business […]

OP-ED: What is an interest rate?

Editor Note: This is the second part of a three-part op-ed regarding money. You can check out the first installment here. When we were figuring out what constitutes something as money, we saw how the value the baker held for maple syrup diminished when his supply of that good increased and that the value someone holds for something is subjective and unique to that individual. The hunter will, likely, always hold more value in venison than the baker no matter […]

OP-ED: Common misconceptions about fiat currency

Editor Note: This is the first part of a three-part op-ed regarding money. There are some common misconceptions about today’s money. One is that our currency is backed by the gold in Fort Knox and we can exchange our dollars for gold. Another is that money, somehow magically, comes from government and that the government has to bring money into being before the society can start utilizing the “wealth” that the government creates. But what actually constitutes something as money? […]

OP-ED: Control the language and control history

The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of 'liberalism,' they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program. - Norman Thomas, 1928 During a decade of political chaos that brought us the works of Simone de Beauvoir, Jean-Paul Sartre, Aldous Huxley and Vladimir Lenin, George Orwell reacted to this mobocracy introducing the world to his dystopian Big Brother. His book "1984" was an attempt to dissuade existentialism in a world reinventing itself after two great […]

COMMENTARY: Government, leave kids alone and let them make a buck selling lemonade

In the past several years, there has been a crackdown by government officials and law enforcement against young entrepreneurs, kids who sell lemonade and iced tea to people traveling around the neighborhood. These kids are perhaps wanting to make money to get that newest toy or if they're willing to work hard, raise money for charitable causes like Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation or Compassion International. Now, neighborhoods are under constant assault from police and politicians who feel kids should be […]

OP-ED: Free speech just isn’t that complicated

It’s hard to believe we need to have this conversation in this day and age. But if we don’t keep having it, at some point we might not be allowed to have it. Question: What is free speech? Or, rather what is NOT free speech? In 2017, former Vermont governor,  presidential candidate, and Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean informed the American public that “[h]ate speech is not protected by the first amendment.”  That’s one variation of the “hate speech is […]
