So many great musicians!

I wanted to give a shout out to some great musicians that I've had the pleasure to listen to throughout Maine. These are some great artists with some creativity and ability to play their own style and music. 

Found these guys accidently: Midnight Ramblers or Midnight Riders. They rock the house with awesome stage presence: https://www.facebook.com/MaineAcousticMidnightRamblers/

Tom https://www.giordanomusic.com has been around a few years. He's got a great sense of looking back at times gone by with his deep melodic voice.

Martin is a songwriter's songwriter with vocals that drop low before bouncing back up. www.martinswinger.com Martin is as much aapostle for the greatness of music and singing, he inspires just by being in the same room.

The Boneheads are a band with some of the most amazing musicians I've seen. Why they aren't a household name across the country, I don't know. They should be. Bob Colwell - Keyboards,Steve Jones - Guitar,Scott Elliot - Bass, Dicky Hollis-Drums. These guys can play and perform. 

 Check these musicians out. 

 They're great.
What's this about?

Vote on How our Taxes are Spent

I want to be in control of what I spend my money on. In today's age where the government leadership has demonstrated their inability to control spending, stop the tax funds from being spent on foolish programs, I think it's time that Americans start to make the decision. Why not ask the tax payers (us!) what we want our tax dollars to be used for?  I propose a 10 year plan to The Tax Choice. Whenever we do taxes, we also fill out a form about where we want our tax dollars to go. The first 3 years is a non-binding plan to see what and where people chose to place there money and see how close it matches our current balance.  At first, we can have broad areas to chose based on the different departments, but depending on what we want, we can decide on as much detail as we want. For starters, I an chose to put 25% of my taxes towards the Department of Defense budget, 25% towards Department of Energy, 25% towards Department of Labor, and 25% towards NASA. How much deta...

Setting Government-Business Incentives and Priorities To Serve the Better Good

Incentives and priorities need to be aligned. If you pay someone 5 cents to return a bottle, you get more bottles returned. If your boss pays you for making more widgets, you'll concentrate on making more widgets. This works very well until the incentives and what we want are different. Would you want someone to be paid a ten dollars for hitting you in the nose? No thank you. I see the government doing this in a couple of cases. The two that stand out to me are 1. Healthcare and 2. Prisons. Prisons are easy to fix. Get rid of private prisons. Private prisons get paid per prisoner. They don't get paid for how well they do in recovering or whether they are treated with respect or provided a way to successfully integrate back into society. Just paid per prisoner. So the government (government being you and me) pays someone to open build and run a prison that is incentivized to have more prisoners. Bad model. Some things the government should be doing themselves and not priva...

Staying Focused

Check your social media, emails, voice mail (does anyone use voice mail anymore?), read a blog, check the weather, is that a text message? You could go all day and never do any real work. But you'd be really busy. That's at the individual ways you can distract yourself. What about a company? What about a country? The world has so many distractions. Add in there the companies and people who are adding distractions on purpose. Sometimes they do it to make money...like Facebook... I think they might be the worst add trying to manipulate people. But others do it too. And it's not just internet companies. Exxon-Mobile has done an amazing job of distracting us from the evils of petroleum. If we as a world organization just invested the profits from one Exxon Mobile year into solar power...oh how fantastic would that be! And what a next step! How many years would it take to reduce pollution? How many years until countries become energy independent? Politics is probably the...
