A dumb article with no useful purpose. Get a life, Galen.

I read your article, Doug. What does race have to do with it? Are you trying to say something that you didn't include?

"I cannot recall Jesus ever saying that the way to enter Heaven is to dole out money extracted from your neighbors' pockets." This is the heart of the matter. Say it again, Jeff. Say it loud!

I suppose we should make all stupid acts punishable by jail time, right?

Well said, ReNae. Really well said.

Yep! Stupid article, Neal. Enuf said!

I am black, conservative, and definitely not supportive of Obama Administration policies. But I find this article highly offensive, not deserving to be on a quality site like Townhall. You have much to learn. But then, you are quite young.

Unfortunately, this started with the Bush Administration's TARP program. Once the government foolishly bailed ot the banks, interference in their business by politicians was inevitable. (Why else would the opposition have supported it and conservatives opposed it?) We started with a huge stupid action and now we have problems with only stupid solutions. Instead of dealing with a federal pay czar, these firms should be dealing with bankruptcy judges. That would not have been the disaster that King Paulson predicted.

Cash for Clunkers subsidized people who could afford a new car at the expense of people who could not.

A better alternative is to make individual purchase of health insurance tax-deductible just like employer purchases. This would make insurance more affordable and make it completely portable.

Otherwise, great article.
