How to make it in socialism
By Katie Kieffer

“How to Make it in America” only works if capitalism reigns in America. I have positive news and ideas that will help you take America back to her capitalist and Constitutional roots in the wake of socialist and unconstitutional Obamacare, which I discussed here, here and here.
Let’s all agree that there is no silver bullet to halt this Administration’s apparent obsession with creating “historic moments” and “fundamentally different courses” for America. There is no Capitalist Fairy who can sprinkle Reagan Jelly Belly beans down on liberal politicians and eliminate their hatred and shame for America.
There are real people, like you and me, who have the right to vote, free speech and assembly. If you feel like you’re alone in this battle to preserve freedom, you’re not. You have more friends than you might think. I’m going to showcase your biggest friends in this race to combat socialist takeover of American free enterprise so you can join them in making your voice heard: Continue reading

Small biz gon’ run this town
By Katie Kieffer

Small business entrepreneurs, listen to me. You are the fuel of our economy. You provide jobs. Real jobs, not paper-pushing tax collector jobs or busy-body federal regulator jobs. You dream big and your dreams become job-cranking innovations, like iPhones, while your public-sector peers dream of ways to tax your profits and restrict your growth.
Last week, I partnered with Charles Eide and Michael Danielson of Forever Films to produce a film that showcases the value of entrepreneurship. Here is the introductory sizzle reel, and the full show featuring three amazing young entrepreneurs will follow shortly. Turn your volume up and expand the video full-screen for maximum impact:

Out popped a drug lobby
By Katie Kieffer
Forget the U.S.-Mexico border for a moment. We have bigger drug cartels to contend with.
Have you flipped the TV on this week? You’ve probably noticed some version of a commercial with the subheading “PAID FOR BY AMERICANS FOR STABLE QUALITY CARE.” Americans for Stable Quality Care is a front group for PhRMA, which stands for Pharmaceutical Researchers and Manufacturers of America, the largest drug lobby in Washington.
The commercials are soothing, professional and put viewers at ease on Obamacare: Continue reading

Why liberals hate health care reform
By Katie Kieffer

Many liberals are angry. Really angry. Whether politicians or voters, they feel cheated, and rightfully so.
Here is their short list of grievances with President Obama’s health care reform bill and process. Continue reading

Raw power for Thanksgiving
By Katie Kieffer

I’d like my turkey well-done and my government raw this Thanksgiving.
Many Americans scrupulously maintain their health. They’re “up in the gym, working on their fitness,” while their government is a bloated gourmand. Amazingly, a few of the same Starbucks Skinny Latte-loving, granola-popping, treadmill-trotting Americans cheer Uncle Sam: “Eat more, government! Indulge! You can have whatever you want, cute little Gov!” Continue reading

Capitalism is the new cool
By Katie Kieffer
In the face of politicians trying to ram unfavorable, fiscally irresponsible health care proposals through the Senate that extend government control, raise taxes and reduce liberties, Americans have started to say: “Enough is enough.” It’s true that sometimes you don’t know how great your life is until something basic that you take for granted – like freedom – is at risk of disappearing.
It is not surprising, then, that the queen of capitalism, Ayn Rand, is making a roaring comeback among American professionals of all ages. Continue reading

Sickeningly sweet news
By Katie Kieffer

I was reading a local health fitness magazine the other day and came across an article about foods that give you energy. The author surprised me by stating a little-known-fact about one of the biggest culprits to your health: High fructose corn syrup.
High fructose corn syrup is subsidized by the government. No big deal? Huge deal. Government corn subsidies total over $56.2 billion. Continue reading

Businessman with Alzheimer’s reveals dangers of public healthcare
A young person’s perspective on healthcare.
by Katie Kieffer

I’m a young woman in good health so, naturally, I don’t spend a lot of time thinking about death. My recent visit with my friend, Dick, who has Alzheimer’s, was eye-opening. I want to share my visit with you because it changed my whole perspective on the current healthcare debate.
When Dick was a young businessman, he worked hard running his own trucking and warehouse company. So, although he has a horrible illness now, he is able to spend his last days in his own home with his wife rather than in a sterile nursing home or hospital. Dick’s wife told me that she’s so glad he has a nice house and the ability to hire good live-in 24-hour help so that he can stay at home. She said, “If he didn’t have all this, he wouldn’t be happy.” Continue reading
