Welcome to the arena
Here you will find my opinions about the application of political principles to the news of the day. My perspective is clearly from the conservative point of view. This is a place to express my concerns, passions, irritations, and commentary as they apply to the current political issues of the day. Political is defined loosely in this blog. There may be posts that are not strictly political, such as movie reviews, medical topics, religious commentary and thoughts on history. I hope interest will be generated by blending my thoughts with current events. I anticipate that there will be honest disagreement. I encourage feedback to my posts with the goal of achieving clarity of disagreement. I will strive to keep the conversation polite and respectful, while avoiding political correctness and maintaining tension to keep things exciting. Hopefully, friends and family will enjoy frequenting the arena for a little intellectual stimulation and good ol' fashioned debate.
There has been a huge amount of criticism about the proposal for universal health coverage. I think it's always good to provide an alternative plan to the one you're tearing down.
Here's a great article by John Mackey, the co-founder and CEO of Whole Foods Markets. He gives 8 reforms that he believes would improve health care coverage in the United States. The article is excellent. I highly recommend reading it.
