the shadow government workforce

Posted on November 22, 2011 by christopher fisher

In FY 2010 (Oct 1, 2009 through Sep 30, 2010), the Federal Government spent more than $44 billion on management support services. In laymens terms, these are contract employees, sitting next to and indistinguishable from government employees. Guestimating about $100k average per contract employee (probably a low estimate), this would mean that contract employees add another 440,000 (upper estimate) on top of the official government worker numbers (federal = 4,443,000).

parents kill baby whom they say they could not feed

Posted on November 4, 2011 by christopher fisher

Pro-aborts like to claim things like this do not happen. They hate hypothetical scenarios, because the hypotheticals destroy their position fairly quickly. Should this unwanted baby be murdered because the baby was unwanted? Are the parent’s liable for murder? Do parents have an obligation to their children? Demarcate the differences between this baby and a baby two minutes away from being born? Two days away from being born? Two months from being born? At what point is a baby not a baby?
