LLOYD OMDAHL: New health rules — 'Stop aging and eating'

LLOYD OMDAHL: Ignore phony rhetoric about job creation
“Overpromise” has become an epidemic on the issue of job creation. The public is expecting the government to solve the unemployment problem when there is very little the government can do. Economic decisions in this country are dominated by private enterprise, so the issue is going to be resolved by the business community, not government.

LLOYD OMDAHL: The summer of 2011 gets a D-minus
This has not been a good summer, which is more than a mere disappointment. For someone running out of summers, it’s a catastrophe.

LLOYD OMDAHL: The summer of 2011 gets a D-minus
Labor Day seems to mark a division between summer and fall, even though the calendar doesn’t figure it that way. Anyway, it’s a good time to look back and evaluate what should be the best season of the year.

Changing the tax structure from one of local options to one controlled by the state will limit local flexibility and create new inequities among counties in the provision of services.

LLOYD OMDAHL: ‘Sinner’ and saint, as presented in ‘Turning Points’
Political observers would think that a lieutenant governor who served with former Gov. George Sinner in the same suite of offices for five years would not find anything new in the book. But I did, and for good reason.

LLOYD OMDAHL: Committee joins ghost towns of North Dakota
“It’s the hard facts,” added Alert Officer Garvey Erfald. “I saw the figures myself. We lost three people in the census, so we will be getting less money from the state. It’s snow removal or the hall.”

LLOYD OMDAHL: Skulduggery is afoot in legislative redistricting
The Legislature should not be in charge of redistricting in any state. If it discovered such a conflict of interest in the executive branch, it would be holding hearings and impeaching officials.
