I mean really! Yes I know this is trivial but given it is an official communication out of the White House, you’d think someone would have caught this. From today’s official White House email:
If I thought the president wrote this after putting down his tweet generator, I’d understand…but somebody is getting paid to […]
In His Own Words:
Some real concerns and some real facts about the state of the economy in the United States:
The political system is rigged for the richest insiders in America.
When we talk about the insider, who are we talking about? It’s the comfortable politician only looking out for his own interest. It is the lobbyist who […]
The NY Times Is Wrong On Janet Yellen and Donald Trump
Today’s New York Times laments the fact that President Donald Trump didn’t reappoint current Federal Reserve Board Chairman (her title preference) Janet Yellen to another term. It has been traditional for the new incoming president to retain the Fed chair…a tradition that apparently goes back 40 years. And it really is too bad that […]
From cabinet appointments to the repeal/replace bills around the Affordable Care Act to the Tax Reform Cut bill just passed in the Senate…President Donald Trump has decried Democratic obstruction as the reason nothing is getting done. Hogwash. The Republicans hold both houses.
Now admittedly the GOP has garnered damn few Democratic votes on their […]
Twenty Million Dollars!!
Twenty Million Dollars is a lot of money…you’d love to have it…I’d love to have it…but what does it represent? Well apparently the average CEO of an American corporation makes just under twenty million dollars a year. I’d say they aren’t worth that no matter the corporation (even if they started the corporation)…or ten million […]
Trump’s Handling of the ACA is Criminal
Obviously President Trump ran on repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act. And we all know that the Republicans in Congress have been singing that song for the past seven plus years. And they introduced three separate really nasty repeal and replace bills since the president’s inauguration in January that they couldn’t get passed simply […]
Why I Voted For Donald Trump!
Before I got sidetracked last month by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s lack of letters to the editor on their JSOnline web presence, I wanted to talk about one of the letters printed there. So I am going to go for it from memory but it shouldn’t be too difficult.
Well the gist of the letter […]

How to Build Wisconsin’s Economy : Years ago, Michael Porter of Harvard Business School argued that successful business strategies took one of two forms: cost leadership versus leadership in differentiation. A company emphasizing cost leadership will do everything it can to drive down costs. Differentiation strategies take a variety of forms, but they all […]

DACA on perilous footing on 5th anniversary : Ten state attorneys general, led by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, have issued an ultimatum to the Trump administration — sunset DACA by September 5, or we’ll challenge it in court. The attorneys general have threatened to petition a court that’s considering a similar but separate […]
I don’t care if was the Russians or Chinese or North Koreans or the proverbial 400 pound boy in his mother’s basement. I don’t care what Robert Mueller finds or the Senate committee or the FBI.
Where is the outrage around something happening to our 2016 election cycle? Around hacking local election boards? Around […]
