Legislation and Legislators

Posted on October 28, 2010 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me that writing legislation is like building a house. Most legislation is never pointed at any particular thing. Take the drug policies of most nations. They are targeted at some nebulous idea of eradicating drug … Continue reading →

This Election Season

Posted on October 10, 2010 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, this election season, in the US, is another example of the electorate searching for leaders, that actually follow the American ethos. So far, both political parties have run as neo-conservatives, (people who want to … Continue reading →
