Generate A Climate Of Opportunity… But Not By Spending
President Obama recently generated a furor with his speech in Roanoke, Virginia, in which he stated: There are a lot of wealthy, successful Americans who … know they didn’t — look, if you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own. You didn’t get there on your own. … If you were successful, somebody along the […]

If You Built It, He Will Come
It took President Obama’s infamous “you didn’t build it” speech to finally stimulate something in the economy; unfortunately for him that something was a week of blistering ridicule from producers. The blowback was predictable – if the symphony conductor can’t read music, the folks playing the instruments take umbrage when he credits the gym teacher […]
