We Don’t Need To Be Forced
Tuesday, December 31, 2013
We already give more than anybody else. The Charities Aid Foundation has released its 2013 World Giving Index, which ranks the world’s nations based on their populations’ frequency of contributing various forms of charity. Note that the world’s 6 major English-speaking countries topped the list and that 7 of the top 8 have cultures that […]
My Merry Hess Mess
Saturday, December 28, 2013

He had come to believe that a dangerous machine of mass surveillance was growing unchecked. Closed-door oversight by Congress and the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court was a “graveyard of judgment,” he said, manipulated by the […]
The Original Non-Compliant Response
Saturday, December 21, 2013
A year later now, the rest of the information will hopefully be released this coming week. Its important to note that if the administration really was concerned about the privacy rights of the gift card recipients, it would have honored the state’s strongly worded request and not inserted itself into the distribution of charitable donations […]
