In a lesson taught to me two years ago by the Sound Off Sister regarding profits, I was told thatPROFITS are not EVIL … that is the goal of any business owner, to make money. When Businesses make money it means that a business has money to spend. That money can be spent in a number…
Read MoreWhat costs Connecticut more: Liquor sales blue law, or Governor Malloy?
Living as I do, in close proximity to the Connecticut border, I get most of my news from Connecticut. Lately, the topic of the blue law restricting the sale of liquor on Sundays has become a hot topic. And in the interests of full disclosure, I could not possibly care less if people can buy…
Read MoreConnecticut doesn’t need and should not want FEMA
