The intent of this blog is to promote human equality, human progress, human peace and justice, and optimism. To accomplish this, to encourage the discussion of ideas after identifying and discovering problems, and then creating positive solutions for "we the people," in order to provide for the "general welfare" and "domestic tranquility" of America now and its "posterity" into the future. To encourage an emphasis on separation of religion and state for all, no matter if this is for those "of faith" in a Maker / Creator (Deists, God-loving people, Christians, various people of spirituality) and atheists or agnostics.

Nothing but the facts, please.

Fact:

In the late 1970s, the price of a new car was only 2% of my income. Today, the price of most new cars are about 15 to 25% of my income.

The cost to rent a 1-Bedroom apartment in the late 1970s was less than 10% of my income. Today, the cost to rent a 1-Bedroom apartment is 25% of my income.

In contrast, the cost of graduate tuition in the late 1970s was about 3% of my income. Today, the cost of graduate tuition is only 1% of my income.

From this evidence, can we conclude which management – publicly funded or businesses run by MBAs – have done the best job? Sure, there are many variables here. My OPINION: the cost of necessary items in our lives have risen astronomically because the supply side in the economy has maintained the economy with an iron fist. I can prove this is NOT capitalism. Are there any people with reasoning abilities and some intelligence remaining out there who care to examine this?
