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 However, over the last few decades, the role of the parent in these decisions has been replaced by experts.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

Next year with be the 250th anniversary of the adoption of the Declaration of Independence. Over the next 365 days I expect to see plenty of opportunities to remember the date. I want to start by remembering the reason why we declared independence in the first place.

Happy Birthday America! Yes, today is the 249th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, well, sort of. The history of this famous document seems often lost in our annual celebrations. So today, I want to revive that history as we prepare for next year, when we will celebrate the semiquincentennial, or 250th anniversary of this great document. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews
