Pre-election polls: keep them or ban them?
I'm all for taking surveys on line and even matching them against other results. Some are amusing, some mindless, some even a little revealing. But what about election polls? What usefulness do they have and does that usefulness out-weigh the negative? My own feeling is that pre-election polls are probably easy as pie to…

CNN no longer fair
We know the bias Fox News has. We know the bias MSNBC has. I use to look towards CNN for some fairness and balance. Now with this election, the coverage that CNN is providing all day shows their disdain for Trump. It is too the point that I am turning to Fox News for fairness and balance. I have even started visiting…

Minimum Wage
The last time the minimum wage was raised, I was 16 years old working as a sacker in a grocery store. I was, needless to say, very happy about the only raise I received at that job over the 4 years I worked there. Since then, I've understood arguments on either side to raise minimum wage or just abolish it all together.…

Parents Of Toddler Killed By Gator Won't Pursue A Suit Against Disney
