Voices

Voices: An erstwhile liberal

We must make no mistake: “Progressivism,” “liberalism,” “socialism,” “communism” and “collectivism” all come under the umbrella of neofeudalism. All of these political entities denote systems in which we, the citizens, are reduced to a master-slave relationship to the state. ....more>>

  • Voices: Foundation laid for MSSU international mission
    Thanks for your insightful editorial in the Globe on Nov. 1 concerning the international mission at Missouri Southern State University.

  • Voices: Quirky calculation
    Confession: For a week or so a while back, it looked as if seniors had breathing room.

  • Voices: Repeat the message
    I would like to repeat Don Landrith’s letter (Globe, Nov. 4), as many times as anyone will listen. Some spoke up on Tuesday, loud and clear, when they went to the polls.

  • Voices: Sounds like a leader
    The vote of no confidence for Bruce Speck is an embarrassment for Missouri Southern State University.

  • Voices: Think for yourselves
    Saturday’s Globe edition Oct. 31 article, “We want equality for everyone,” needs to be evaluated to the fullest degree.

  • Voices: A special prayer
    Oh God, help those who are hungry. When I have plenty of food, help me to remember those who don’t. My house is warm, help me to remember those that are homeless.

  • Voices: Medical Katrinas
    There are wonderful intentions and desires in our search for “universal” health care. What have we learned from prescription Medicare D experience? We’ve seen the difficulty in acclimating seniors to 30-something plans in Missouri.

  • Voices: Overriding common sense
    On Oct. 26, a Globe letter to the editor ran a letter from a man who referred to Highway 71’s four-lane extension from Fidelity Corners south to Neosho a few years ago. He wrote: “Why did they not follow the existing route south where the Missouri Department of Transportation had already purchased right of way?”

  • Voices: In defense of Rush
    I’m thinking that I need to express much sympathy for Rush Limbaugh for being blocked by a powerful coterie of professional football investors from becoming a minority owner of the St. Louis Rams. Rush speaks well enough for himself.

  • Voices: Death of common sense
    Will someone explain to me why we should have government-managed heath care? I don’t understand!

  • Voices: Define ‘true and accurate’
    The letter to the editor by John T. McDonald (Globe, Oct. 24) states that he is impressed by the standards of the written opinions that are published on the editorial page. He notes that the increasing number of varying points of view is very encouraging.

  • Voices: Polanski not above the law
    We see it happen quite often — celebrities and others with “big names” committing criminal acts and believing that they are unaccountable for their actions. We see it happen with politicians, writers, even pastors and attorneys and others who are sworn to uphold the law. It also happens a lot in the entertainment world. One example is Roman Polanski.

  • Voices: Government IOUs
    Do you know what happened to a lot of the Social Security money that was put back?

  • Voices: No cause for celebration
    On Sept. 20, the Empire State building was lighted red and yellow to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China. At the same time, this event was either being celebrated on the south White House lawn or across the street, depending on whom you talk to.

  • Voices: We are in charge
    My high school science teacher constantly repeated one of his standards to live by: When it concerns people and facts, believe none of what you hear, none of what you read and only half of what you see.

  • Voices: Fiscal reality
    I begin with a statement of opinion that is bleak. I believe that the financial situation in our country is the worst in our history in terms of long-term concerns.

  • Voices: More information needed 
    The Joplin Globe published an editorial on Thursday that attempted to reveal some of the ideas of our “Republican House leadership” on the issue of pending health care reform legislation and its effects on Missouri.

  • Voices: Government IOUs
    Do you know what happened to a lot of the Social Security money that was put back?

  • Voices: We are in charge
    My high school science teacher constantly repeated one of his standards to live by: When it concerns people and facts, believe none of what you hear, none of what you read and only half of what you see.
