Prescott Valley, AZ Correspondent-Depending on a thorough and complete investigation of rape charges where the accused rape perpetrator is completely exonerated, women who knowingly accuse men of false rape or sexual assault should face charges. Just as with any other violent crime, if an accused person is proven innocent, the accuser should have to face the consequences. Continue reading

Should the federal government run health care clinics and hospitals for anyone receiving government sponsored healthcare (Medicare, Medicaid, Obamacare)? Young doctors out of med school could be offered employment and reduction in student loans for working in the government run facilities. Will this help reform healthcare in America?
Sheffield, Jamaica Correspondent-I’m not trying to reveal the pessimist that I am, but irrespective of who or what control the healthcare facilities of the day, we will still get sick and die. I need sickness gone permanently!
Now that’s out of the way, for the sake of fostering a peaceful debate and accommodate the many opinions out there, I think governmental benefits, especially sponsored healthcare, should be administered or operated by the Federal Government. Continue reading
Bill Gates recently called for a tax on robots that take jobs from humans. Does this proposal have merit?
Owatonna, MN Correspondent– Taxing robots certainly has merit for the government, which relies on taxing humans to feed its spending addiction.
It’s presumed a corporation that employs robots will be responsible for paying the robot tax. How will that be assessed if robots don’t receive compensation similar to what human employees receive? Should it be based on the robots’ productivity? And how should those tax dollars be spent? It makes the most sense to spend robot taxes on displaced workers who can’t find jobs because of automation. However, anyone who believes that government will faithfully dedicate all collected robot taxes to helping displaced workers, there is still plenty of swampland for sale in Florida. Continue reading
Can society ever lose its fear, distrust and apprehension about immigrants from different races, religions or ethnic groups?
Prescott Valley, AZ Correspondent-The only way that society will lose its fear, distrust and apprehension about immigrants from different races, religions or ethnic groups is when immigration laws for both legal and illegal immigrants are fully enforced and legal immigration is reduced to manageable numbers. Continue reading

Should women be given combat roles in the military and allowed to fight alongside men on the front lines?
Owatonna, MN Correspondent– Aside from Joan of Arc, Xena the Warrior Princess, and a handful of comic book and movie heroine warriors, females fighting on the front lines in a war was never considered until the rise of the modern feminist movement started in the 1970s. Women have gradually earned the right to join the military and expand their roles, but the debate about whether to allow them on the front lines hasn’t been resolved. Continue reading
Bill O’Reilly fired?!?!?
From Our Gastonia, NC Correspondent
The news this week of Bill O’Reilly’s unceremonious eviction from his Fox News post may have been mildly surprising for its precipitous nature, but the fact that it was going to happen was written on the wall when the first advertiser fled his show after the news of the sexual harassment settlements surfaced for the first time. Continue reading
Should minors be allowed to get tattoos (if they have parental permission)?
Owatonna, MN Correspondent-Tattoos are often considered “the poor man’s art.” They also express someone’s personality, albeit in an unusual way. I am in favor of anyone being allowed to show their artistic side and to do what they choose to their body as long as it doesn’t harm anyone else physically or financially (among other reasons). So, I am in favor of anyone willfully getting a tattoo—except for minors, even those with parental permission. Continue reading
Do Rapid-Fire Televsion Commercials and Programs Contribute to People’s Shortened Attention Spans?
From our Owatonna, MN Correspondent
As I’ve aged, I’ve noticed it’s harder for me to concentrate on things like reading a book or newspaper, or concentrating on one problem, thought, or idea for an extended period. Perhaps it’s just my senior brain showing signs of aging. Perhaps it’s due to my busy schedule and trying to multitask to make sure several projects get done in a timely manner. Continue reading
Broken parties in Washington?
From our Gastonia, NC Correspondent
And now, only a month or so behind schedule, the Republican health care plan is ready to come to a vote … or is it? With more than a dozen recalcitrant Republicans refusing to join the rank and file to move the GOP plan forward, President Donald Trump is facing a huge challenge early in his reign. Continue reading
