Cuban Communism: Its Days Are Numbered
by Barry Farber. It was already doomed. Over 99 percent of 3-year-olds believe the glass screen on a television set is to keep the people from falling out. And that’s smarter than what their parents are saying to each other and hearing from the media about Cuba, Obama the Castro brothers and this over-hyped, totally misunderstood, non- ... MORE
130 Environmental Groups Call For An End To Capitalism
by Michael Bastach. No longer hiding from their socialist agenda. Environmentalists have declared that global warming can’t be stopped
without ending the “hegemonic capitalist system,” saying that
cap-and-trade systems and conservation efforts are “false solutions.” “The structural causes of climate change are linked to the current ... MOREIncome Redistribution's Logical Conclusion Is Communism
by Jeffrey Dorfman. Income inequality is dominating the economic news cycle at the moment with multiple stories about rising income inequality, the need to raise the minimum wage, and anecdotal stories designed to make the more fortunate feel sorry for the less so. There are, however, two big problems with this narrative. First, most of the ... MOREHumberto Fontova: Caveat On Nelson Mandela
Nelson Mandela's commitment to liberty. A Martian visiting earth this week, coasting TV channels and perusing papers, would have to conclude that among the items that most interest this planet’s news bureaus is the plight of former political prisoners, especially black ones. Well, many Cubans (many of them black) suffered longer and ... MORECondemn ObamaCare -- No Alternative Needed
by Barry Farber. The brightest star in Yogi Berra’s Library-of-Life-Lifters is probably “It’s déjà vu all over again.” (Runner-up: “Nobody goes to that restaurant anymore. It’s too crowded.”) It hit me with a comforting force when I suddenly connected what I was hearing these days that rang dim but important bells from long ago. You’ve ... MOREBarry Farber: More Fun Than A 1-Horse Open Slay
Obama's meltdown is quite delightful. If the president’s troubles make you want to sing, at least get the lyrics right. It’s not “We Shall Overcome.” It’s “They Shall Overreach”! “Don’t count chickens before they hatch!” is too stilted and cliché. I prefer the earthier Southern version, “Don’t count ‘taters afore grabbin’ time.” ... MOREHarry Binswanger: Statism Is Deadly Opposite Of Capitalism
Whether fascism or communism, it's statism. Over the last few years, a new and immensely clarifying concept has entered public discussion: “statism.” It has been said that he who controls language controls history. The growing use of “statism” may portend a political sea change, because it pierces a major Leftist-created ... MOREDr. Ben Carson: ObamaCare Is Worst Thing Since Slavery
Vladimir Lenin would have liked Obama. Dr. Ben Carson slammed President Barack Obama’s signature health care during his speech at the Value Voter’s Summit Friday. “Obamacare is really, I think, the worst thing that has happened in this nation since slavery,” Carson declared. “It is slavery in a way because it is making all of us ... MOREBarry Farber: Obama's New Marxist Ploy
You can learn a lot from an Estonian. A Southern law professor once instructed his class on how to defend
Hell in court. “First you admit that the climate is not the most
comfortable,” came the advice, “and then you admit your companions are
far from the kind of people you’d choose to spend eternity with. Then,”
the professor ... MOREIlana Freedman: Chavez, Castro and Putin Agree: Obama!
In the birds of a feather department .... The latest [dictator] to publicly announce his support for the
commander-in-chief’s reelection bid was Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez, who
this week assured he’d vote for Obama if he were from the United States.
The America-bashing strongman made the announcement on state-owned
television, saying “Obama is a ... MOREThomas Sowell - The Fallacy Of Redistribution
It is not complicated. The recently discovered tape on which Barack Obama said back in 1998 that he believes in redistribution is not really news. He said the same thing to Joe the Plumber four years ago. But the surfacing of this tape may serve a useful purpose if it gets people to thinking about what the consequences of redistribution are. ... MOREBarry Farber: Obama's Mainstreaming Of Marxism
The commies like Barrack. So what? An email came though with the subject line, “Yikes! Look who just endorsed Obama for 4 more years!” I scrambled to get past the tease and into the revelation. I expected the villain would be a prominent Republican governor or mayor or some major conservative having one of those fits that swept Arianna Huffington ... MORECharles Koch: Why We Fight For Economic Freedom
Big governments "are inherently inefficient and harmful." In 1990, the year before the collapse of the Soviet Union, I attended an economic conference in Moscow. Like my father during his visits to the U.S.S.R. in the early 1930s, I was astonished and appalled by what I saw. Simple necessities, such as toilet paper, were in short supply. ... MOREObama & Democrats Garner Communist Party Donations
Toto pulls the political curtain on the Democrats' agenda. The Communist Party USA isn’t always happy with the Democrats, but in the 2012 election, its chairman says, the best bet for advancing the Party’s goals is to back Barack Obama. In a report called “Defeating the Rightwing on the Road to Socialism” delivered to the CPUSA annual conference, Party ... MOREArmstrong Williams: Government And Capitalism
False stimulation masks reality. Are we not judged by God relative to our kindness to the downtrodden and the disadvantaged? Maybe. But since God created this planet and everything on it, including the laws of nature which dictate that the strong survive and the weak perish, why are models based on those laws so frequently disregarded? Can ... MOREIsabel Otero: The Ozzie Guillen Political Correct-Mess
The thought police ticket the Marlins' manager. Lately those in the public eye seem to have reverted back to Cold-War memes where someone, most prominently Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, can call Russia our "No. 1 geopolitical foe." I am not sure if this is nostalgia or a sincere attempt to find something to argue about. This week, it ... MORE
