UCF had six months to settle the dispute with Mr. Planchers parents before they filed a lawsuit in March. At that point, there already were signs Continue reading From The Editorial Pages Along The I-4 Corridor

Billy Townsend - MetroI4News.com
Charles Krauthammer, a columnist generally referred to as very conservative, has a proposal for health care reform that I consider serious. Basically, it boils down to 1) a massive middle class tax hike designed to sever insurance from employers, coupled with smaller tax credit (which would not nearly cover the full cost for a family) to help individuals and families buy their own insurance and 2) basically outlawing medical malpractice lawsuits. Read the column for yourself. Does it sound a little familiar? Its almost exactly what John McCain proposed during his campaign. I wonder if those of you who refer to yourselves as conservative like the idea that the Republican nominee ran on.
If not, and if you dont like Obamacare, Id like hear what you would like. Im going to list a few basic facts, as I understand them, about US health care today. Id like any of my handful of readers to either tell me my facts are wrong or suggest a way to address them. Continue reading Health Care: Soliciting your suggestions

Billy Townsend - MetroI4News.com
I do think that building a publicly controlled rail corridor, high speed or other, linking Tampa, Orlando, and ultimately, Miami, will carry important long-term benefits for the state. And of all the rail routes discussed for Florida, the Tampa-to-Orlando stretch has greatest potential ridership. So, Im happy to see everyone moving forward on it. (Everyone, that is, except JD Alexander and the Winter Haven folks.) But, in the interest of intellectual honesty, and embracing the uncertainties and potential consequences of what I support, I want to make a few points. Continue reading Whither High Speed Rail?

Posted: 22 Aug 2009 08:30 AM PDT

Billy Townsend - MetroI4News.com
During a comment discussion a couple of weeks ago concerning my bigfoot conservatives post, I said that military spending accounts for about half of the federal taxes we pay. My buddy Al Whittle called me on it, correctly. Military spending, depending on the accounting source you use, accounts for about 20 percent of the US budget. Its virtually identical to Social Security and the combined medical entitlements, which also account for about 20 percent. Its confusing because the previous administration factored out large parts of military spending on Iraq and Afghanistan, but this is the best I can figure it. Military spending does account for about half of discretionary spending, that is spending without it own specific tax source, and I think that was what I was trying to say. But I garbled it.
