The New York Times has a fascinating article on the growing profitability of nursing homes and the declining level of care by clinical staff. As the population ages, more and more business will develop methods for generating revenue off of the goods and services provided to this large population. That is just a fact of [...]

Strange Fruit

I haven’t said anything about the Jena, Louisiana mess. Mainly because it’s absolutely unbelievable to me that people would tolerate anything like hanging nooses from a tree, much less celebrate it. There are few things I hate more than an ignorant, racist small-town hick. What kind of people teach their kids that it is ok [...]

The DPS has lost every challenge, but continues to pay such high-price law firms as Akin Gump and Diamond McCarthy to [...]

My favorite part (well, it’s all good, really): the conservative commentator who says that she’s not ready for a nurturing President. Because who needs that - really - at this time in our [...]

Don’t Tase Me, Bro

I finally watched that video and I still think that little shit deserved to get tasered. When the police surround you and you don’t comply then you’re pretty much asking for it. I don’t think it infringed on his freedom of speech at all. He was obnoxious and totally deserved it.
Protests at events are [...]
