The Texas Tribune sold out faster and cheaper than even I feared. Any journalistic integrity they had was lost to the wind with their “Festival” this past summer sponsored by the oil and gas companies. They disinvited the only industry critic they had scheduled (our blog hermana TXSharon of Bluedaze).

I just cannot read them any longer.

Rey,
I agree, when you crunch the numbers, it just dosen’t work. My thoughts are: Even if the amount redistributed was doubled, there are other factors that need to be addressed. Many individuals as well as families simply don’t know how to be good stewards. Teaching good stewardship is a great place to start. I have often wondered why so many people get thousands of dollars back in tax returns every year and have an opprotunity to apply it toward debt, but end up splurging instead. Another case in point, many of those who win a lottery sadly file for bankruptcy within 2 years (I think that’s the average). Additionally, we also have to consider the question of (hypothetically speaking), you and 3 other family members are multimillionaires, collectively, how would you respond to your hard earned wealth being redistributed accross the country with little or no guarantee that the effort would prove to be successful.

Comment on Sheriff Garcia Looking Good for 2012 by Fewer inmate deaths – Off the Kuff

[...] As for the numbers, while I have no doubt that this reflects the many improvements made at the jail since Sheriff Garcia took over from Tommy Thomas, I also suspect there’s a similarity to the homicide figures, in that this year represents a dip below the “normal” level. What you want to see is a downward trend. More importantly, you want to see that all reasonable steps are being taken to ensure that trend is downward, which over the last three years it has been. There’s more good press for the Sheriff at KUHF, as noted by Stace. [...]

If this catches on with the Democratic party as a whole, the Republicans are going to look like a bunch of witch hunters.
