Everywhere you turn there is a con man trying to bilk Americans out of their money. I find it particularly reprehensible when it is done in the guise of helping and supporting the troops.
For the last several years, Sean Hannity and the Freedom Alliance “charity” have conducted “Freedom Concerts” across America. They’ve told you that [...]
I’m happy to see the exemption for businesses that hire someone who has been unemployed for at least 60 days. As many of you know, the longer you are unemployed the harder it can be to get a job. Hopefully, the exemption and the $1,000 credit will urge businesses to hire the long term unemployed.

VATICAN CITY – Germany’s sex abuse scandal has now reached Pope Benedict XVI: His [...]
Maybe retail sales were up in February because there isn’t much else to do in February but shop.
WASHINGTON — Retail sales posted a surprising increase in February as consumers did not let major snowstorms stop them from storming the malls. The advance, the biggest since November, provided hope that the recovery from the [...]
It seems like a no brainer to me….not enough money in an account or credit available on a credit card and the purchase gets declined, yet many banks saw it as an opportunity for profit.
I applaud Bank of America for this change but find it ridiculous that BofA and other banks have been gouging customers [...]
It doesn’t appear the anti-discrimination laws work very well if unemployment for seniors has risen so dramatically. I know a number of local corporations that had layoffs and the older employees, those close to retirement, were the first to be laid off.
I’ve worked with elderly people and very young people and I prefer working with [...]
