The Truth About the Obama Agenda, Part I

By Robert Ringer - Saturday, January 31, 2009

By Wayne Allen Root I have been asked by radio talk show hosts across the country to talk about President Obama’s possible – if not probable — nationalization of the banking system. But there’s more to the story than just banks. This issue ties in with every aspect of the Obama [...]

Stimulus Packages vs. Wealth Creation, Part II

By Robert Ringer - Friday, January 30, 2009

In Part I of this article, I discussed how the creation of surplus wealth leads to an increase in manufacturing plants and equipment, which in turn leads to the creation of both new jobs and new products. This stimulates economic growth and, in general, improves the well being of people who [...]

Stimulus Packages vs. Wealth Creation, Part I

By Robert Ringer - Tuesday, January 27, 2009

By Robert Ringer Compared to the cast of characters being appointed to high-level posts in Washington, Rod Blagojevich is starting to look appealing. The guy reeks with vintage Chicago chutzpah, he’s got style (What can you say about a spandex jogging outfit?), and he’s entertaining. In fact, had B.O. appointed him [...]

Moving Fast to Change America

By Robert Ringer - Monday, January 26, 2009

By Robert Ringer You will recall that prior to Barack Obama’s taking office, I wrote a three-part article titled “The Justification for Lying,” in which I discussed the approach I thought he would mostly likely take to “change the face of America.” Rather than the more subtle “boil-the-frog-slowly”approach, I thought he [...]

Swinging at Leaves

By Robert Ringer - Saturday, January 24, 2009

By “Reality Seeker” (subscriber Guy Phillips) The beginning of the 44th presidency and its “success” reminds me of Jimmy Carter’s 39th: America was suffering the after-effects of an expensive war, a bad economy, an energy crisis, a weak stock market, and an overall disgust with the Republican Party — kind of [...]

The High-Speed/Low-Cost Catalyst

By Robert Ringer - Thursday, January 22, 2009

The High-Speed/Low-Cost Catalyst By Robert Ringer In the Preface to Stephen M.R. Covey’s book The Speed of Trust, his father, Stephen R. Covey (of Seven Habits fame), states: “My interactions with business leaders around the world have made it increasingly evident that ‘speed to market’ is now the ultimate competitive weapon.” [...]

The World’s Silliest Question

By Robert Ringer - Tuesday, January 20, 2009

As the media and left-wing “slobbering love affair” (as Bernard Goldberg puts it in the title of his new book) reaches orgasmic heights today, maybe those of us who have not yet bought into the idea that Abraham Lincoln has been reincarnated should work hard at keeping our intellectual composure. Just [...]

Detachment and the Impossible

By Robert Ringer - Friday, January 16, 2009

I received a large number of e-mails in response to my two articles on the impossible dream, and many of the comments prompted me to go into the subject a bit further. Primarily, I want to emphasize that when you’re in a seemingly impossible situation, one of the most important but [...]

The Impossible Dream, Part II

By Robert Ringer - Wednesday, January 14, 2009

Let’s start today by considering three options you would have had if, like Viktor Frankl in the 1940s, you had found yourself in a Nazi concentration camp.

The Impossible Dream, Part I

By Robert Ringer - Monday, January 12, 2009

A reader recently sent me an e-mail in which he lamented about his “impossible situation.” I guess it’s all in the eyes of the beholder, because to me it appeared that his was an impossible situation with a lot of possibilities. So what, exactly, is an “impossible situation?” More specifically, what [...]

Valkyrie, Socrates, and You, Part II

By Robert Ringer - Thursday, January 8, 2009

On a personal level — i.e., government and politics aside — the Valkyrie story is yet another reminder that it’s much more important to be loyal to your principles than to be popular. Truth and popularity, in fact, are all too often at odds with one another. In comparing his own [...]

Valkyrie, Socrates, and You, Part I

By Robert Ringer - Tuesday, January 6, 2009

If you haven’t yet seen Valkyrie, the Tom Cruise film about the best-known of the fifteen or so plots to kill Adolf Hitler, it’s worth the general discomfort of a trip to your nearby overpriced popcorn and candy store (a.k.a. “theater”). Better yet, you can wait a few weeks, get it [...]

The Comedy and Tragedy of Spontaneity

By Robert Ringer - Sunday, January 4, 2009

My approach to life is to plan carefully, then relentlessly focus on execution. I don’t mean to sound stuffy, but to me impulsiveness is a sign of irresponsible behavior. That’s why those who know me best would lay 100-to-1 odds that I would never make a spur-of-the-moment decision to hop on [...]

How Busy Are You?: Joe Karbo’s Brilliance

By Robert Ringer - Friday, January 2, 2009

Considering the headline of his legendary full-page ad, it’s no wonder the late and legendary Joe Karbo was able to sell millions of copies of his self-published book The Lazy Man’s Way to Riches. The headline I’m referring to is: MOST PEOPLE ARE TOO BUSY EARNING A LIVING TO MAKE ANY [...]
