INTERESTING: Technology can boost the incomes of low-wage workers, whereas increasing the minimum wage may not.

DEMOCRATS LIED ABOUT OBAMACARE. And they’re not about to “fix” it.

HIGHER 'EDUCATION': What that $1+ trillion student debt is being spent on. It ain't education. You can click on the charts to enlarge them, but what they (and some very simple math) tell me is that the numbers of and salaries of tenured or tenure-track professors has barely stayed above (<1%) inflation over the last 25 years. The rest of that 1+ trillion dollars has gone for ... well, has gone.

DEMOCRATS: oblivious to the obvious. "When you raise taxes dramatically and roll out tons of burdensome regulations, a contracting economy is only a surprise if you’re an idiot. Or a member of this Administration and the press. But I repeat myself."

RESTORATION MY ENVIRONMENT: Live your life to the fullest by paying someone else to suck up your carbon footprint.

A PHONY AND A HYPOCRITE: Sen. Harry Reid Declines Invitation to Redskins Game While Team ‘Disparages the American People’.

RANDOM THOUGHTS: Here's an idea; rather than abandon all those illegal immigrant children streaming across our southern border at red state bus stops, let's house them in in Harry Reid's Washington D.C. Congressional Visitor Center (unless it interferes with his anti-Koch brothers movie screenings).

Another option is the Yucca Flats nuclear repository in Nevada. It's empty; has been for years.

BREAKING NEWS:

The next Obama squirrel.

MORE ON THE DISAPPEARING EMAILS:

[T]here is a context in which crashing hard drives at IRS and EPA make perfectly logical sense. For starters, the Obama administration has given new meaning to the term "massive resistance" in its responses to congressional oversight.

Then there's the "in-your-face" appointment of maxed-out Obama donor Barbara Bosserman to the Justice Department's "investigation" of the IRS scandal.

Finally, there's the Koskinen smirk. Watch Rep. Trey Gowdy's devastating cross-examination of the IRS commissioner Tuesday, especially at the 3:21 mark.

The long-time Democratic fund raiser appears serenely confident that neither Gowdy nor any other House Republican can lay a hand on him or the president.
