I’ve been contemplating a blog for quite a while now… and this past Christmas break, I finally had an opportunity to get some webspace, buy a domain name, and get this site up and running. I have a deep passion about the direction of US policy in many areas… and I am getting a J.D. to further my competence in this area.
