keep in mind

By Eddie Wood "seesquared"...that it's the conservatives that have gotten us into the mess we're in now. It sounds great on paper to let everyone do what they want but the fact is deregulation has been a colossal failure. Regulation and laws are necessary because people don't do what they should do, otherwise we wouldn't need laws. Ask yourself this-without regulation,Martin D. Weiss, would the environment have been cleaned up? And, how has deregulation worked with the banking industry? The founding fathers argument is hooey. Who among them was a conservative? George Washington and Thomas Jefferson wouldn't recognize themselves in this book. Look back at the last 100 years. What have the conservatives done for anyone (except themselves? The astounding thing is how many supporters of these kind of books are actually going gainst their own self interest. Amazing Related Articles:

The Real Deal

By R. MortellitoThere is no question that Liberty and Tyranny will serve to strenghten the convictions of true Conservatives and to awaken and encourage those who have not yet clearly defined their political positions. So many who were sucked into the whole "Change and Hope" diversion of our last election now have a way to confront their 'buyer's remorse'. An awakened voter is an awesome force in our society and Mark's book is a very effective alarm clock. Related Articles:

A definite wake-up call for America!

Definition of true Conservatism!

By EverettPI just finished reading this book and I must say that it is a breath of fresh air for the Conservative movement. Levin departs from typical party lines to analyze what made this country great and exposes the "Statist" attempt to change it incrementally under the guise of the progressive movement.

I would like to emphasize this book does not promote the GOP and specifically points out how the Republican party has moved away from conservatism that the founding fathers had intended although not to the degree the Democrat party has.

My only complaint about the book is that it could have gone more in depth on the Enviro-Statism and Immigration chapters; however, the meat of the book is succinct,to the point, and important.

Once again, this is a must read for anyone who defines themselves as a Conservative or anyone who just wants a little more insight on what made this country what it is and how it is, and has been for years, "changing" for the worse. Related Articles:

Our forefathers would be proud of this book

By Lex Hart "Lex"Mr. Levin is a constitutional lawyer who, through this book, clearly states what our forefathers were thinking when they wrote what they wrote and did what they did. All politics aside folks, this is AMERICAN history, not Republican history or Democratic history... Take the time to read it before you criticize...thank you Mr. Levin for putting this into such a well written format for the rest of us. Related Articles:

Clever plan--not always the right answer

By Sandy Winnich "Certified Financial Planner"First off, I'm not sure why the author things CFPs would discourage plans like these--if they make money, I want my clients to use them because then they can continue to pay me :-) It kind of sounds like Mrs. Yellen is trying ot stir up conspiracy theory to make you think this is a lot more valuable than it is.

Here's the plan: you get a whole life insurance policy with a PUA rider (Paid-Up Additions) and invest (in yourself basically) up to the MEC limit. These investments will return dividends, which you reinvest in the policy. Now when you get to the MEC limit (during the capitalization period of about 5-6 years), you can take out loans on your policy (interest on which is tax deductible) and pay (yourself) back over time.

This is a pretty good plan for people who are risk averse. It will probably beat your average savings account interest (especially nowadays) and the tax deductions are a nice perk. The whole process is reminiscent of books likeSurviving the Second Great Depression --clever ways to take advantage of the current system.

I wouldn't normally follow advice from people who buys time shares, but this seems like a decent gander.
