It is only on matters of politics and particular Capitalism that I have second thoughts about her ideas and ideologies but most ring true to everyday living.

I lived every bit of what she wrote and every bit is true. Some time ago I discovered the real meaning of what she wrote about and it changed my life forever.

THANK YOU!!! Saturday’s event has re-fired us up again. The speakers, the location, the topics were timely and very informative.

We are enthusiastic grandparents of 3 NH homeschooled kids and need to know what Concord is doing so we can act accordingly.

Please have more of these events.

Noted. In the other one I was probably referencing the right to bare arms, like Michelle Obama in a sleeveless… which we all have!

You need to watch your homonyms. It’s “on the heels”, not “on the heals”. In another post you referenced the “right to bare arms”.

Jason’s point is that your attack on the writer (or the publisher) has absolutely nothing to do with the *content* of the article, and is thus meaningless in a discussion of that content.

Attacking the messenger does not change the validity of the message.

That was strangely fun to read.

Comment on Car insurance is mandated! by Stephen R

Nor do you need a drivers license to drive. My brother learned to drive (stick shift) when he was twelve. In a dump truck. On my uncle’s farm.

Larry — “if a health insurance mandate instituted by the federal government was clearly unconstitutional, we would not see so many people fighting so hard to stop the bill.”

What? That is all the more reason to fight it. There are a lot of unconstitutional laws on the books. Thus the complaint of judges “legislating from the bench”, which is to say putting their personal preferences above the clear intent of law.

Go read the Constitution, and then tell me where in it the Federal Government is empowered to mandate a minimum wage that I must pay the (hypothetical) teenager who sweeps my floor. And yet….

Comment on Car insurance is mandated! by Larry Lubell

You bring up three very interesting points.

First you are correct, the state does not demand that you buy Physical Damage insurance to cover a loss to your own car, the state just demands that you have coverage for the damage you might do to someone’s person or property.

Secondly you are again correct when you state If you do not drive a car, you are not required to carry insurance. I could point out that if you are an Owner/non-driver, you will need car insurance- but for the most part you are correct.

Your third point that a health insurance mandate instituted by the federal government is unconstitutional, falls under the heading “Unsettled-Law”.
The federal Government does pass laws that are national is scope. The simple truth is if a health insurance mandate instituted by the federal government was clearly unconstitutional, we would not see so many people fighting so hard to stop the bill.
