There’s an old adage in politics, what you tax you get less of, what you subsidies you get more of. This is also true in a more generalized sense. For example, when a politician crushes the rights and of the people they are supposed to serve, when the cities they run become dystopian cesspools, only to be given a sweet deal to teach others how to do it, you can’t be surprised when their evil spreads. When those who lie to the public are not punished, you can only expect more lies. When We the People listen to illegal federal agencies rather than telling them to go “pound sand”, you can’t be surprised when their power grows.
The adage is true, you get less of what you punish and more of what you reward. It seems Americans are just fine with not only punishing good but rewarding evil. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel

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 However, over the last few decades, the role of the parent in these decisions has been replaced by experts.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?

Shakespeare wrote in Romeo and Juliet, “that which we call a rose By Any Other Name would smell as sweet” So what’s the big deal if Donald Trump renames the Pentagon and the Department of Defense? Do the names really matter? What would you say if we started calling good bad and bad good? - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

In 1974, just before he went into exile, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn published the essay “Live Not by Lies”. In this essay, Solzhenitsyn encouraged people to not cooperate with the regime’s lies. I think that is good advice for Americans today. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

Legally, America is a republic, we elect people to represent us and make our laws. Yet today we act like an oligarchy, where a few people “rule” over the rest of us. How else do you explain the power our courts are exercising over us. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews
