PODCAST 149

Virtue. Morality. The theme for Podcast 149. Three stories from today’s headlines that relate to the question: What do these words mean when applied to the nation? Is the United States a failing country when it comes to morality? What was our morality like in other times in US History? Is it moral to suggest war ‘should’ be more democratic so that we all sufffer destruction and death equally? Is it true that immigrants make more over a lifetime than Americans, and that if you’re a poor native born American, it isn’t your fault? And what of virtue and morality? While Americans struggle to hang onto their houses, cars and put food on the table, religious authorities in Roman bejeweled palaces, and behind crystal lecterns tell us we are amoral, and lack virtue. Its about time we tell them, we have had it with them telling us how we’re ‘supposed’ to act and feel, considering the last ten years of feckless leadership. Sponsored by XGovernment Cars

Podcast 131

A live podcast from the West Metro Tea Party meeting. Inequality will be the cornerstone of the Democratic strategy to hold the line – or pick up seats – in the US Senate. Their success means making you think there is a problem named inequality, and that government can solve it. What are the conclusions of scholars claiming inequality is a ‘terrifying’ problem for the future? Is the United States an Oligarchy? How does a person get rich and stay rich? Finally, if you want to have an impact, you’re going to have to stop talking about it, and start working on building organizations to win elections.
