Welcome to the blog of Connor Boyack, a 20-something web designer, political economist, and budding philanthropist.
I'm changing the world, one byte at a time.
We’ve all heard the phrase that the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer [2]. Where do you stand? An interactive media company has crunched some data from the World Bank to take a stab at guessing where you stand (economically speaking) in relation to the rest of the world. I’m the [...]
The Bilderberg group met in Canada for this year’s meeting in June. Here’s a list of the attendees. The following video shows Alex Jones protesting outside of their meeting location. Incidentally, Jones was detained on his way to the protest (reminds me of the time he was arrested at a Bush rally). If you don’t [...]
The press is all abuzz with Mitt Romney (not to mention his Mormonism) and his potential (and probable) candidacy for the office of the POTUS. I’m worried that the LDS voting bloc is jumping in behind him simply because he’s a fellow Mormon. To entertain the notion that he’s not a good candidate for the [...]
Debt is one of the worst things to plague our society. The consumerist mentality which prevails among first worlders drives people to want “more, more, more”! Especially notable during the Christmahanukwanzadan season, instant gratification seems to be the name of the game. And now, we’ve reached an all-time low. As the San Francisco Chronicle reports, [...]
Last week I decided to try a little experiment for fun. I created a fake profile on an LDS-themed dating site as a 23-year old female and put up a fake picture (of a fairly attractive woman). The following are some of the responses I received from would-be suitors. Keep in mind that these guys [...]
I’m pleased to present a new website I’m part of, LDS News Watch. Sponsored by the More Good Foundation, I’ll be teamed up with Richard Miller and Chris Knudsen. While we will also post favorable news articles relating to the Church, the main purpose of the site is to serve as a watchdog for newspapers [...]
Mr. Yankee on SurvivalBlog.com has a post titled “How Long Until You Starve?“. It’s quite an interesting read and a question we all should ponder in light of any number of potential natural disasters or other types of emergencies which might spring upon us as a proverbial thief in the night. A few of the [...]
Word has it that the Pope has invited Henry Kissinger to be his papal political adviser, and Kissinger has accepted. Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiinteresting. If true, there is speculation on which issues Kissinger would advise the Holy Father. Relations with Islam, Palestine and Israel, and Iraq — Kissinger has been critical of the conduct of the war but [...]
Marjorie posted on T&S an editorial submitted to the Deseret News about Santa. This well-written article supports my own stance on the detrimental effects of teaching children the existence of Santa Clause (not to mention detracting from the true meaning of the Holiday… but I digress). Years ago as a young mother I had some [...]
From the LDS.org newsroom: Last night, the popular reality television show Extreme Makeover: Home Edition aired an episode that featured a performance by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. … The Pauni family of Logan, Utah, lost their father two years ago, leaving their mother to carry the responsibility of providing for nine children. The Paunis were [...]
In this season of thanksgiving, I’d like to express my heartfelt gratitude for the last 3.2 seconds of Saturday’s game. Here’s a recap of the game: Thank you, John. Go BYU!
As the sidebar indicates, one of the books I’m reading right now is Atlas Shrugged. It’s 1069 pages long and worth every minute of my time. Ayn Rand, the author, was one smart cookie. I’m only on page 400 or so right now, but the last few pages have been highly interesting. One of the [...]
