Now let me see, our tax coffers will be lightened from the loss of jobs, and the rest of us are supposed to pay these folks with what’s left in our tax coffers to compensate them for not working. Have you ever heard of anything on earth more socialistic than that? - An Answer to America’s “Racial Divide”: the Census by Tom Brennan

For those who attended the special session of the Idaho legislature, this report will be a painful reminder of the proceedings. For others who are barely familiar with the event, it may serve as a point of information, lost in the near distant past and a precursor of the future if nothing is done to remedy the results. - Think You Own Your Property and Mineral Rights? Think Again by Jason Casella
Do you own your mineral rights? That was a question that I didn’t think should be at the top of my list when I bought my house. - Reality Denial by Rich Loudenback
