The TPA Debate: Fears & Facts about “Fast-Track”

May 28, 2015 Thomas Schatz

When Chicken Little said “The sky is falling!” and convinced his barnyard brethren of the same, the facts notwithstanding, he practically invented fear-mongering. Trade liberalization opponents are engaged in their own version of spreading false and misleading information by claiming that so-called “fast track” legislation is fraught with end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it perils. Just as the falling acorn […]

John Locke was Right….

October 7, 2014 Leslie Paige

In the process, the storied American character that once valued hard work and venerated self-reliance has itself […]

September 20, 2014 Leslie Paige

USPS is posting one thing very well; losses. The USPS is hemorrhaging money.   It ended its last quarter with a $2 billion net loss, as compared to a $740 million net loss for the same period last year.  The revenue that was generated came as a result of a very anemic increase of 0.9 […]

Murkowski’s Folly

March 21, 2014 Sean Kennedy

The first rule of communications is getting the message right. A March 11, 2014 op-ed by former Secretary of the Interior Bruce Babbitt appearing in the Los Angeles Times provided a unique glimpse into how messaging used by politicians can shift over time.  The editorial detailed the push in the 1990s by former Alaska Senators […]
