Opinion: Decline in Values Leads to Decline in Marriage

Andrew Montalvo — Tue, 18 Jun 2013 23:45:20 +0000

Andrew Montalvo — Wed, 12 Jun 2013 21:21:55 +0000

The reveal of the identity of the man who exposed the NSA scandal leaves me with torn feelings on morality. Mr. Snowden has placed himself squarely in the middle of right and wrong. He is a man who did the right thing in all the wrong ways. First he exposed an unacceptable abuse of government [...]

Opinion: The Rich "Fair Share" Argument in the Fair Tax Debate is a Delusion

Andrew Montalvo — Tue, 11 Jun 2013 20:00:42 +0000

The IRS scandal has had many of my friends discussing the American tax system in recent days.

Opinion: Any Sort of Semi-Amnesty Will Be Full Amnesty

Andrew Montalvo — Wed, 05 Jun 2013 21:47:00 +0000

There has been quite a bit of talk of what do to about America’s rampant illegal immigration problem. It seems exportation, wither forced by law or imposed through regulation, has been taken completely off the table. The new solutions range from work visas to a pathway to citizenship. I will not address the argument of [...]

Andrew Montalvo — Fri, 31 May 2013 10:48:40 +0000

With the recent tornado strikes in Moore, OK and other places, many people are talking about installing tornado sirens here in Lubbock. If memory serves Lubbock had them, and they did next to nothing to help the people in the town seek shelter during tornadoes. But arguments of how effective or ineffective sirens would be [...]
