I want to know: When did having health care insurance in America become a right? Moreover, why is it, in certain peoples beliefs, such a right that I should be forced to have health insurance or worse, if I own a company (which I do) that I should be forced to provide healthcare insurance for my employees?From my understanding and reading of the Constitution of the United States of America there is no such provision or mandate.

Is it a moon-shiners jug?... Read Full Story
As I was checking my stock portfolio I saw a news story about the decline in real estate prices. So I reviewed some data in the Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller home price index - while the overall news on the surface seems bleak it actually provides some relief. Home prices have retreated but only to those of about 2 -1/2 years ago.
