the Heart of Democracy: The Courage to Create a Politics Worthy of the Human Spirit.”
MoreLaw selectively enforced
July 7, 2012
Peter Rusthoven [June 25] correctly criticized President Obama’s decision to invade the province of Congress by taking
steps to effectively enact the Dream Act through omission.
More‘Ethics’ in perspective
July 7, 2012
In his rambling essay on everyday ethics, Bruce Hetrick [June 25] introduces us to David Brower, a “leading environmentalist”
with a “penchant for expressing bold ideas in blunt terms.”
MoreJefferson also said…
July 7, 2012
Thomas Jefferson could hardly be further from today’s liberal/progressive agenda [Hetrick, June 11].
MoreAnother idea to merge local not-for-profits
July 7, 2012
I applaud the Little Red Door Cancer Agency [June 18] in taking a step that many not-for-profits should consider: merging
to better serve constituents and utilize donor contributions.
MoreLearning the new bike rules
June 30, 2012
I would like to share my opinion on three of [Morris commentary, June 18] points.
MoreKennedy wrong on jobs
June 23, 2012
Sheila Suess Kennedy suggested [June 4] that job creation and the wages of working Hoosiers drastically trail the national
average. Here are the facts:
MoreDeal with the scofflaws
June 23, 2012
After reading Greg Morris’ [June 18] commentary “Cyclists, do your part to share the road,” I had an epiphany—a
way for the city to make money and a way to save money.
MoreGet bikes off busy streets
June 23, 2012
Spot on! [Morris’ June 18 commentary] on bicyclists was perfect. In my experience cyclists are rude and inconsiderate.
MoreAngie's List suit laughable
June 23, 2012
Your [June 4] article
on the federal lawsuit initiated by Angie’s List against its largest online competitor, ServiceMagic, made
us laugh.
MoreLugar's age was issue
June 23, 2012
Peter Rusthoven [May 28] forgot one important reason why people did not vote for Dick Lugar and it has nothing to do with
tea.
MoreFunds help launch Carmel arts center
June 23, 2012
The Center for the Performing Arts just finished a monumental season of programming. Well over 100,000 guests visited, making the center and its Palladium concert hall one of the region’s most visible destinations.
Package liquor stores aren't so responsible
June 16, 2012
It is not surprising to read Jon Sinder's [June 11 letter] tired old defense of Indiana's archaic liquor laws by somehow suggesting
the package liquor store industry is more responsible when it comes to selling alcoholic beverages.
MoreImmigrant column spot-on
June 16, 2012
Very uplifting [June 11 Maurer commentary]. Your question is well posed and it points to the historical "need" for scapegoats.
MoreConexus supports governor's Major Moves
June 16, 2012
We appreciate the [June 4] attention given to the Conexus Indiana Logistics Council and our work to address Indiana's long-term
infrastructure gap.
MoreWells' credibility hurt
June 16, 2012
In mid to late May, many news outlets [May 14 IBJ] covered a story with Indianapolis International Airport board
President Mike Wells prominently reporting that the airport suffered a $31.3 million operating loss in 2011.
MoreThe case for stock options
June 16, 2012
Your executive compensation headlines [June 4] makes one think about the fairness of such large awards.
MoreLiquor laws necessary
June 9, 2012
Greg Morris' [June 4] commentary calling for further deregulation of Indiana's alcohol laws is simply reckless and uninformed,
as we have one of the most deregulated alcohol markets.
MoreLiquor laws are absurd
June 9, 2012
Thank you for the intelligent and cogent commentary [June 4] on our less-than-intelligent and cogent liquor laws, clearly
a holdover from the temperance days now serving a narrow group with good lobbyists.
MoreGreen energy no panacea
June 2, 2012
Chris O’Malley’s [May 28] article on the Sierra Club left out some rather stunning statistics.
MoreSimon grossly overpaid
June 2, 2012
Having experienced a somewhat predictable rejection of the proposed compensation package for CEO David Simon, the board of
Simon Property Group now will propose a lesser amount which, by comparison, will seem reasonable.
MoreTaxes from big incomes leaving Marion County
June 2, 2012
Despite the location of Simon Property Group’s tax-subsidized headquarters in Indianapolis, Marion County income tax
coffers will see little impact from David Simon’s compensation.

These higher rates Co. e about only because physicians are now hospital employees. otherwise physicians couldn't charge these rates and share the windfall with the hospital. Community/rural hospitals probably not buying physicians practices and thus weren't getting the windfall anyway.
The incentive for poor people to get themselves off public assistance and "no longer be poor" is even with help...they're STILL POOR! Being poor, even with some assistance, isn't all that pleasant. (I speak from experience) It's a stubborn myth that poor people, who are on public assistance, are sitting in the lap of luxury. You should try living on just those "freebies" that you mentioned and see how meager they actually are. By the way, I didn't mean you had to buy/own a puppy...just pet one. :)
As near as I can tell the minority has ZERO constitutional obligation to offer a quorum to the majority. A requirement for quorum was inserted into the constitution so that tyrannical majorities could not simply shove through odious and objectionable legislation (which is exactly what they did.) By allowing a tyrannical majority to charge fines against the minority for exercising their constitutional prerogative to deny quorum the court as made a mockery of constitutional governance in the state of Indiana.
The voters elected the Reps to make a vote not walk out on the vote. They had to the right to exercise their opinion and vote "no" to the bill. Let me ask you this if you walked out of your job for 5 straight weeks would you get paid? Would you even have a job to go back to? If any elected official walks out on the people they should be arrested for stealing tax dollars from the public. They were elected to do a job and not leave when the job gets stuff.
I have been to several of their locations in Pennsylvania and always go in for 1 item and leave with a basket full of things. I'm very happy they decided on Indiana, now if only they would put the other store in eastside.
