Made in America Panel Warns Listeners About Ongoing Manipulation of Job Numbers

Made in America Panel Warns Listeners About Ongoing Manipulation of Job Numbers

Neal Asbury began his nationally syndicated “Neal Asbury’s Made in America” show on Radio America by castigating the Obama administration and labor department for their ongoing manipulation of the unemployment numbers.  While the numbers released calculate the unemployment rate at 8.1 percent, the actual unemployment rate is closer to 14 percent.

Skewed Visions of the American Dream

As I watched the speeches at the Democratic and Republican conventions, the idea of the American Dream was inserted into many of the presentations. Yet, the visions of the American Dream were inherently different.

RNC Demonstrates GOP Support for Small Business

RNC Demonstrates GOP Support for Small Business

I was honored to have been invited to appear in Tampa during the Republican National Convention on a panel together with Rep. Darrell Issa of California titled Government and Entrepreneurship. However, Hurricane Isaac caused the session to be cancelled.

As an entrepreneur, I’ve seen enough intersection with government ...
