Burning Down The House

December 19, 2011

America, Land Of The Regulated

August 27, 2011

It was bad enough when the government turned off the water supply of California farmers to protect a minnow. The farmers went bust as their crops rotted and died.

A Case For Economic Freedom

July 1, 2011

Liberals are puzzled by the way conservatives and libertarians prattle on about economic freedom. Liberals want the opposite of economic freedom. They want the iron fist of the government to exert centralized command and control over economic activity. That view is puzzling to me. I wonder how any American can accept such a view, but [...]

November 28, 2010

It's fashionable among left-wingers to degrade America and Americans. They call us imperialist warmongers, capitalist pigs, exploiters of the poor, racists, religious nuts, uneducated hicks, etc, etc. It seems there is no end to their criticism and hatred of this country. They probably started cringing when I titled this post 'American Exceptionalism,' because they simply [...]

September 27, 2010

I took a break from the internet, newspapers, teevee shows, etc., for several days. Sometimes I just have to get away from all the political noise, especially when that noise gets cranked up to it's highest decibel levels just before election time.
