Turn this civilization aroundThus the handwriting is on the wall. History repeats itself. The only power that can check the widening spiral of the pride of the people of Israel on the one hand and of deceit and treachery and intrigue of the people of the Arab nations on the other is the authority of the Christ that occupies the position at the heart level to challenge this yin and yang perversion of Alpha and Omega. Your knowledge of the cosmic clock will show you that these two nations this day represent the malefactors on either side of the Christ–both in manifestation of antichrist–the Christ who came... read more

How to Protect Health Care from Government Intrusion*Kofi Ampaabeng, Elise Amez-Droz* *Health Care, United States* Make no mistake: The antidote to a government takeover of health care is a booming private market—one that delivers superior value to patients and empowers providers to focus more on top-quality care. People often complain that American health care is broken because we have a “free-market” system. But, in fact, much of what’s broken about U.S. healthcare is due to government intervention. The involvement of third-party payers, which are either funded or heavily regulated by the government, leads to mountains of paperw... read more
