LeBrononomics: How income taxes factored into Lebron James decision - by Bruce Tyson - Helium

Dan Gilbert, owner of the Cleveland Cavaliers called the decision by LeBron James to sign with the Miami Heat a “cowardly decision.” Since when does hanging on to an extra $12 million to $25 million constitute cowardice?

A look at two political perspectives - by Bruce Tyson | The TIW Blog

Much of the Bible centers around this one doctrine: God sees everyone as the same. He does not consider the wealthy above the poor (or vice versa) and He does not consider the socially connected above the loner (or vice versa). Nothing about you makes you better than another and nothing about another makes them better than you. God cares about us equally, leaving every person on a level playing field when it comes to salvation, justice, mercy, companionship, or provision. Christians are expected to see each other in the same manner.
