Media salutations, public relations, and political expediency have brightened the private sector and darkened the public sector, conditioning the citizenry to feel comfortable with private initiatives and to question public thrusts. To appease a confuse electorate, political compromise has replaced public responsibility - a route to disaster.
Saturday, July 30, 2011 Government Debt is not the Problem Dan Lieberman
In the over-leveraged economy, government deficits are a principal means for job creation. Good enough, but there is one better route! Current account surpluses stimulate job creation and repay public deficits. Which method is preferred for job creation?
Saturday, February 5, 2011 How Reagan Sank America by Dan Lieberman
Reagan's policies had little to do with the economic progress, and his policies started the United States on a road to eventual economic stress.
Friday, April 23, 2010 Gaza War Legacy (1 comments)
The United States has permitted Israel to make a mockery of the U.S. mission for bringing democracy to the Middle East. America is perceived as a hypocrite and charlatan, has lost credibility with the Arab world and made to appear subservient to Israel's endeavors. How can any patriotic American allow that?
Tuesday, October 20, 2009 Health is a Socio-Economic Problem
The recent debates on health plans have omitted a vital aspect of the discussion - recent reports have shown that a large inequality in the distributions of wealth and income are more significant factors than either absolute poverty or low income in determining the health of deprived populations.
Thursday, July 2, 2009 A National Pension Plan
Social Security history indicates that only a National Pension Plan can provide a suitable and secure financial arrangement for retirees and SS already has the framework for a National Pension Plan.
Friday, June 5, 2009 Political Options for Jerusalem's Future
Israel's latest strategy for complicating the peace process is to delay discussions of Jerusalem's future.
Monday, March 2, 2009 Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's Bravery
Logic and analysis rather than political expediency and appeal to votes guided the California Governor's attempt to rescue his state from collapse - a model of behavior for other state governors to follow.
Friday, February 6, 2009 Can the Obama Plan Revive the U.S. Economy? (2 comments)
Is President Barack Obama's American Recovery and Reinvestment Plan addressing auxiliary problems, significant as they may be, rather than the problem, which is long term recovery of United States industry? A lack of publicized analysis, which inexorably leads to guides of what to do and how to do it, raises doubts and questions.

The die is cast. Isn't it preferable that General Motors be nationalized?
Monday, December 8, 2008 Predictors of US Economic Collapse (1 comments)
Reference to a few graphed statistics that charted the direction of the U.S. economy during the last years predicted its eventual collapse.
Wednesday, October 1, 2008 Candidates Face the Ross Perot Voters
Barack Obama must do more than capture the electorate's minds with expression of the issues. He must modify the vision the electorate has for his opponent and gain perception as the straight shooting hope for the future who empowers people. Unfortunately, a difficult chore for someone who talks sense to many who lack sensibility and talks truth to a part of the electorate that is too quick to accept distortions.
Monday, August 4, 2008 The U.S. Military Presence in Iraq
The Sunni and Shiite factions must resolve their disputes by themselves, and they can best do that with assistance from nations which each faction trusts. If Saudi Arabia and Iran cooperate in resolving the Iraq crisis, it sets the stage for resolution of other Middle East conflicts and for bridging the divide between Shiite and Sunni militancy. Success brings a revised legacy for the Bush administration.
Saturday, July 5, 2008 Saudi Power - Shaping another U.S. Foreign Policy Misadventure
The dependence of western nations on Saudi oil has made Saudi Arabia a Middle East powerhouse that is now able to shape Middle East policy and lead U.S. foreign policy down another path of confusion, counterproductive actions and eventual regret.
Sunday, April 6, 2008 Decline of the Party Power System (5 comments)
The present presidential primaries have an overlooked feature; people power is taking precedence over party power.
Tuesday, January 1, 2008 The Politics of Dismemberment (1 comments)
Dismemberment is a political tactic that can involve more than individuals. Spoken of as "partition" or "territorial and demographic adjustment," it can be used against an entire nation; just slice corpus from corpus, separate populations, separate lands, or build walls of separation. Made to seem as a means to diminish internecine conflict and provide a welcomed communal division, the breakup of nations has been a strategy.
Tuesday, December 4, 2007 The Making of Israel
Israel's growth from a document to a vibrant nation within 100 years is one of the more interesting phenomenon of the 20th century. Uri Avnery, founder of Gush Shalom and Michael Warschawski, founder of the Israeli-Palestinian Alternative Information Center,reveal speak of Israel's trajectory from UN resolutions that established an Israel from Palestinian lands to UN resolutions that condemn Israel for its occupation.
Tuesday, October 30, 2007 The New Statism
A new statism, in various prescriptions, exercises control over the political, moral, economic and social fabric of several nations and has the potential to control the destiny of the world.
Sunday, September 2, 2007 War Cometh Before a Fall
War has economic roots; no matter how it is made to appear. Call it spreading freedom, fighting terrorism or protecting citizens, the driving force for war is to gain economic advantage. If economic problems grow and the U.S standard of living declines, the U.S. government will seek its only remaining solution: War cometh before a fall.
