Bringing my Blog Back from the Dead

So I was reminded by a friend of mine about this blog I started a year and a half ago. I did not give it the attention it deserved and thus it faded from my memory. Well I've decided that I still have a lot to say on many different topics and this would be a good way to express my thoughts. I know the internet doesn't need another irrelevant blogger asshole but tough shit. So I figured this would be a good introductory post to let you all know what this is about and why I'm blogging again. I plan on following this up with my thoughts on some relevant topics of the day including my first topic which will be on the newly upheld Affordable Health Care Reform Act or Obamacare or whatever you wanna call it. So that will be my first post after this and I will go from there. Thanks to the one or two of you that are reading this and hopefully you will be mildly interested in what I have to say. -Nick

The Free Market Economy is a Joke

I know many "team player" Republicans will always through out the word "free market" when it comes to economic issues. The theory, which made since before corporations, when everything was owned by individuals, is that the "free market" would sort it out. Meaning if you ran a bad business then people wouldn't use your business and you would then go out of business. On the flip side if you had the best products, service, etc. you would be successful because the "free market" would reward you. The problem is this hasn't been true for some time now. I think corporations were a big part of the decline of what a "free market" does for businesses. When its shareholders & board of directors and CEO's there isn't the same ownership of said businesses. There are loopholes, bankruptcies where they can clear their debt, corporate welfare laws and tax break "incentives" for corporations. None of those things existed ...

This Is Where You People Are Getting Silly

First off I know there are a lot of problems I could write about right now. I've been wanting to do a blogpost about team politics and the wealth that really makes the decisions in politics. I will probably write it eventually but not today. This post is about this statement I've been seeing lately on all of my social media accounts. "White Privilege" or the more expansive one, "White Male Privilege". I understand, like, and respect Progressive thinking but this is where they are getting just silly. I read a quote today where they said, "Talking about your white privilege is realizing you will never know what it's like to live like someone else. It' not an attack on what you have." That is disingenuous at best. It's the same thinking as someone saying that you can't comment on children or parenting if you don't have a child. It's just bad logic. It also is meant to be an attack or a guilt trip on specific people for some...

My Thoughts on the State of Things!

Well it's that time of the every other year or so were I actually do a blog post. I'm not sure why I don't post here more? Maybe because I've been writing professionally now for so long that I don't like to write for free as much as I used to? Or maybe I just get burned out on writing or commentating on stuff? Probably a little bit of both. Life is funny, if you are a fairly functional human being you learn and you grow. I feel like with all of the big downs and big ups that I've personally been through over the last few years I'm a different person now then I was even 5 years ago. This is becoming evident in my professional life as well as personal. I will have some big news coming within the next 3-6 months hopefully that really could change my life for the better career-wise. If that doesn't pan out it's back to the drawing board and that has been a scary thought for me. I feel like I'm starting to be ok with that. I hate to fail, I even...
