A question everyone should be asking. I have never owned a gun. Matter of fact, I have fired a gun a grand total of one time in my life. I shouldered a shotgun out in the north Georgia woods when I was nineteen years old and fired at a milk bottle filled with water as a target. The kick from the gun nearly tore my shoulder off, since I obviously had no clue what ... MORE

A. Barton Hinkle: Disturbing Agenda of Occupy Wall Street
Protestors are wrong to favor forced equality over liberty. The Occupy Wall Street (OWS) movement, obsessed with fairness, has benefitted from the lack of it. The protesters don't think so—but that is because many of them have not thought enough. The demonstrators resent disparity. So consider the disparity in coverage of OWS and the Tea Party. A single ... MORE
Shikha Dalmia: Don't Mind The Gap
What matters is income mobility, not income inequality. I hate to be the bearer of good news just as the Occupy Wall Street movement is gathering steam, but protesters can stop worrying about rising inequality and go home. New evidence suggests that the super-rich got hit by the recession much harder than the rest of the 99 percent. This doesn’t mean that they ... MORE

People have taken to the streets mad as hell, but don't seem to understand why.
George Reisman: In Praise Of The Capitalist 1 Percent
Everyone benefits from the hated capitalists. The protesters in the Occupy Wall Street movement and its numerous clones elsewhere in the country and around the world chant that 1 percent of the population owns all the wealth and lives at the expense of the remaining 99 percent. The obvious solution that they imply is for the 99 percent to seize the wealth of ... MORE
John Ashby: Marching For Shackles And Chains
Willing slaves protest against liberty. History is littered with popular uprisings which overthrow one dictatorship only to turn around and embrace another. From the French Revolution near the turn of the 18th century to what many fear to be happening in the Arab world today, revolutionaries generally know whom they are against, but they fail to define what they are ...

David Harsanyi: Occupy Wall Street - A Manifesto
What's really going on at the Wall Street protests? We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men, women, and transgendered—and any other human who is able to elude the tyranny of work for a couple of weeks—are created equal. We gather to be free not of tyranny, but of responsibility and college tuitions. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that a government .... MORE
Ira Stoll: Obama Gets A Blank Check For An Endless War
Where is the press? Where are the protests? The Obama administration is on pace to have more American soldiers killed in casualties related to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan than the George W. Bush administration did in its first term. Already, hundreds more American troops have been killed in Afghanistan during the less than three years of the Obama administration than during ... MORE
