There’s no one to blame but yourself for missing class

Impressed With China
Days before I left to go to China a liberal friend of mine said he was interested to see if my political views might change upon being in China. His angle was, "yeah, they're communist, but look at th...

Pro/con: Should US remove oil drilling restrictions?

Yes: We should, but we won’t

Reader's view: Jobs, prosperity don’t come from the government

In his Local View column of Jan. 19 (“For a moral nation, we have a shocking income disparity”), Bernie Hughes blamed income disparity and high unemployment on outsourcing, low taxes, corporate profits, union decline, political contributions, the Internet, software and automation. About the only things he overlooked were high-fat diets and phases of the moon.

Reader's view: Gronseth a good selection for Duluth superintendent

The Duluth School Board deserves congratulations for decisively securing Bill Gronseth to serve as the new superintendent for Duluth public schools. This choice was wise from many perspectives (“Duluth School Board moves swiftly, picks Gronseth as superintendent,” Jan. 25).

Local view: Early planning will ease transition to retirement

Much is being written about retirement. People are delaying retirement because of the Great Recession. There’s continuing economic volatility and uncertainty. Baby Boomers are arriving at age 65 with massive numbers. Life expectancy is increasing, causing retirees to wonder whether their money will last as long they do. Also, there are health-insurance considerations and a myriad of retirement options, including 401(k), pension, Social Security, IRA, 457, 403(b), SEP, SIRA and more.

Reader's view: Marriage, civil unions are separate customs

As I see it, we have two separate customs being incorrectly combined under one word, “marriage.”

Reader's view: Don’t use tax money to exploit deer for hunters

A Jan. 22 Outdoors-section story started with the words, “Disgruntled Minnesota deer hunters …” (“How many deer are enough?).

Local view: Flawed anti-counterfeiting pact is Big Brother at its worst

As if SOPA was not bad enough. Though that bill and its Senate counterpart, PIPA, were rescinded, thanks to the protests of online activists, a much more potent threat to Internet freedom looms: ACTA.

Our view: Why no arrests after glitter-bombings?
