Homeschoolers: if you created jobs in a district that doesn’t exist, how much would that stimulate the economy?

Homeschoolers generally include Arizona Civics and History and Geography in their curriculum, so this shouldn’t be a very difficult question: How much money does it take to save or create jobs in Arizona’s 86th district? A quick internet search (for those who have forgotten) for the Congressional District map shows the document on the left, [...]

Should homeschoolers get the Swine Flu vaccine?

Fall is the start of the flu season.

With so much talk about the Swine Flu, and the expected pandemic that [...]

What is all the stir about the TEA Party Express?

Across the country, thousands of American citizens are gathering at 35 different cities to be a part of a groundswell of voices expressing their discontent and anger over a health care system that is being systematically promoted as the best option for all America.  The Health Care bill, HR 3200, is over 1000 pages long [...]

Government run health care: What do we have to lose?

I have some grave concerns about the current and proposed health care systems. While my husband was working for the city government, we had very good benefits for a reasonable out-of-pocket cost.  He retired four years ago, and the situation changed drastically.  We could continue on the same plan, but of course without the employer subsidy.  His [...]

The result of Affordable Health Care, and what it means to “play God”

I just finished reading some distressing accounts of families who have been presented with “end of life counseling” for their loved ones within our current system.  Much of this discussion was related to lack of adequate emergency care which exacerbated the presenting health issues. Consequently the patient’s prognosis seemed to be “poor quality of life” and the medical [...]

Which section of the Constitution allows the federal government into Health Care?

Sandford, 1857 The 10th Amendment to the Constitution sets up a barrier to prevent the federal government from overstepping its bounds and bringing on the excesses from which [...]

Arizona Leads the Way to Oppose and Nullify Nationalized Health Care

Do [...]
