Aries (March 21-April 19)
With Mercury coming out of retrograde you can loosen your tie, kick up your heels or take that road trip with no destination in mind. Or, you can close the deal on that house or car you have been wanting to buy. The choice is yours and now it’s time to strike while the iron is hot!

RACIAL TOLERANCE INDEX: Racist? Compared to what? In a global research project the World Values Survey studied 80 countries over three decades revealing the most and least racially tolerant. The United States ranks as the most tolerant along with Canada, United Kingdom and Australia although our status has recently declined. For the dregs of racial intolerance try India, Egypt, Iran, Korea or France.
RACISM: Prejudice and discrimination based in social perceptions of biological differences between peoples. The notion that one’s race determines one’s identity. It is the belief that one’s convictions...

Report: Gila River Diversion is Expensive, Unnecessary Boondoggle
$1 billion for river project would be better spent on education, child care

The report, “The Gila River Diversion: A drain on limited state resources that are better spent elsewhere,” outlines the problems with the proposed Gila River Diversion project and the need for the proposed funds to be invested in programs...
