The Supreme Court fired a shot last week that ricocheted into the political

owning handguns. For the first time in history, the justices said the
Constitution's 2nd Amendment protected an individual's right to keep and
bear arms.
The decision was 5-4 and, as we've seen on contentious social issues,

The battle over adding a balanced-budget amendment may have made headlines

United States, according to The Christian Science Monitor.
Thomas Jefferson proposed such an amendment to the U.S. Constitution in 1798
to rein in spending of the nation’s second president, John Adams, and

There is no question that the state of the economy can affect elections. But

It is fascinating to see people accusing others of things that they

Academics love to say that businesses are not paying enough to people who
work for them. But where in business are there people who are paid
absolutely nothing for strenuous work that involves risks to their health?
In academia, that situation is common. It is called college football. How

Betrayal is hard to take, whether in our personal lives or in the political
