Freedom is not free. While that is true, how often do you think about what freedom actually costs? Earlier this week, many of us exercised our duty to vote. Some of us fulfilled our duty to sit on a jury. But behind all of this are the millions of men and women that have sacrificed to defend the Constitution of the United States. Obviously some of been injured, even killed, and many others had to deal with the horrors of battle. Regardless, each and every one of them was willing to live with little pay, difficult living conditions, and the almost constant threat of being deployed into danger. American's have set aside this day to remember these men and women, and the first great war that covered the world. We call it Veterans Day.
While the sacrifice of our veterans have helped us live with the freedom we have left, what are the American people doing to help? After all, the head of a spear may be dangerous, but it is the weight of the shaft that gives it power. In the same way, it is the people's support that gives those soldiers, sailors, airman, and marines the strength to do their job. So make today the day you earn the sacrifices these men and women have made.

Who is in charge of your children? That has been a perennial question that has grown in importance over the last few years. When I was a child, it was understood that, with rare exceptions, parents were in charge of a child’s upbringing. This included medical, religious, and educational decisions. However, over the last few decades, the role of the parent in these decisions has been replaced by experts. What happens when the goal of the experts differs from those of the parents? Who decides the future of the rising generations? It was understood that the state acted in loco parentis, in place of the parents, only for the safety of the child. A recent case in U.S. District Court shows that be it health departments, child services, schools, or even the courts. Government not only believes they know better than the parents, they are more than willing to act in loco parentis tyrannis.

With the release of ChatGPT and other artificial intelligence (AI) applications, there has been a lot of speculation and downright assertions about our future. With over 30 years of experience in Information Technology (IT), not more than a passing understanding of AIs, I've come to the conclusion that much of what I've heard is more science fiction than fact. A recent court case decided in the D.C. District Court revolved around one very important question. Do AIs have rights?
In this third installment of the three-part series on the branches of government, we look at the role of the third and weakest branch. At least that is what our Founding Fathers thought of it. What is the role of the federal judiciary? What are the extent of their powers, how do they related to the other two branches of government, and why is a proper understanding of the role of the judiciary critical if the United States is to remain a constitutional republic?

Most of us believe that our state legislatures are making our laws. But what if that is only partially true? What if a third-party was making the laws for your state? Would you be OK with that? Would you be concerned to find out that two private entities are making the laws your state uses regarding commerce?
