Cinco de Mayo

I'm running hard today to get a bunch done in the morning and then help out with final details at the Porter County Lincoln Day featuring Lt. Governor Becky Skillman tonite.

Some articles I noticed worth checking out:

Jerry Davich suggests that the distrust between Lake and Porter County is the root of the problem facing the council's desire to get out of the RDA. Thoughts?

The Times has completed a study and poll regarding last year's sub-prime mortgage mess. Although they recommend more regulations and laws, it's my strong opinion that laws and regulations will do nothing more than make it more expensive for all the other homebuyers and homeowners. If a homeowner wants to pay off their credit cards and/or their car with a second mortgage, and then run out and fill those credit cards back up, there isn't a law out there that will keep them from doing so.

What stories are you watching today? Swine flu seems to have been over-dramatized, perhaps to get a bunch more cash for the CDC. The stock and bond markets are regrouping even in the face of massive government borrowing now and in the future, I only hope we don't see the inflation that seems eminent.
