- Our rights are protected by, but not granted by the government
- Citizens are the supreme inhabitants of this nation
- Our government should operate within its means
- All people are created equal
- The Constitution of the United States is to be followed by and protected by our elected officials
- All government workers serve the people

Who Does Wealth Belong To?
First, an admission that I came to the conclusion that the title of the current series should be “Ten Values We Can Agree On For America”. I had been saying “things” instead of “values” and I think Values is much more descriptive.
So, who does wealth belong to? My proposal is that it belongs to those who generate it. Whether it’s a five-figure income or a million-dollar inheritance, I think that it’s not up to the government to divide that money equally.
Let me know what you think.

Bureaucrats are going to Bureaucrat…
Customer service is not a strong suit for our Government Employees. Who do they serve…or what. That’s the topic on this week’s Quiz the Diz Podcast
Who Needs a Constitution? We do!!!
This may be the most surprising thing about our current government in the US: it seems that the Constitution is only followed when convenient or expedient. Our Constitution and why we need it this week on Quiz the Diz Podcast. Part of the “The Things We Can Agree On for America”
All People are Created Equal
Equality and equity are two different things. This week on the podcast, I talk about how equality is something Americans are born with in our founding documents, but equity is an unattainable ideology that ignores human nature. This is the 6th of the “Ten Things We Can Agree On for America” series.
What Good is Being a Citizen of the United States?
One of the Ten Things We Can Agree on for America is “Citizens are the Supreme Inhabitants of this Nation”. If we are not, what good is citizenship? That’s this week’s discussion and it focuses on the massive problem our country has with illegal immigration.
Teachable, Trainable and Coachable?
As my friend and former boss Steve Butler taught me, integrity means pushing your chair back under the desk. Being teachable, trainable and coachable on this week’s episode.
Giving is Good for You – Part 3
Luke 6:38 has been the basis for the last three episodes. We’ve talked about why you should give, that you should expect a return and, on today’s episode, I talk about how the return is determined. It’s important to keep in mind that giving is a flow and stopping the flow at the beginning or the end will yield unneeded difficulties.
Giving is Good for You – Part 2
Luke 6:38 is the basis for our podcast last episode and this one. I talk about why we give, the importance of receiving as part of the process and who determines the return. This week I teach about how much we get back and why it is an error to not expect a return.
God has a plan for you, and we’re here to help you find it
