Obama Supporters Shocked, Angry At New Tax Increases
by Joseph Curl. Sometimes, watching a Democrat learn something is wonderful, like seeing the family dog finally sit and stay at your command. With President Obama back in office and his life-saving “fiscal cliff” bill jammed through Congress, the new year has brought a surprising turn of events for his sycophantic supporters. ... MORE
Vegas Employer: Obama Won -- So I Fired 22 Employees
Election results begin being felt. A Las Vegas business owner with 114 employees fired 22 workers today, apparently as a direct result of President Obama’s re-election. “David” (he asked to remain anonymous for obvious reasons) told Host Kevin Wall on 100.5 KXNT that “elections have consequences” and that “at the end of the day, I need to survive.” ...

Thomas Sowell: Race Cards
A powerful tactic to combat independent thought. If you are sick and tired of seeing politicians and others playing the
race card, or if you are just disgusted with the grossly dishonest way
racial issues in general are portrayed, then you should get a copy of
Ann Coulter's new book, "Mugged." Its subtitle is: "Racial Demagoguery

Paul Miller: Obama Or Romney? Libertarians Must Choose
It’s depressing to be a libertarian. We usually spend election night with our few friends in a watering hole or in our parents’ basement listening to Rush albums. Libertarians are smarter than voters who blindly vote Democrat or support the Republicans who do more preaching about limited government than actually practicing it — that’s what we tell ... MORE
Little League Lawsuit Epitomizes A Big League Problem
by Anthony W. Hager. Some things can't be fully appreciated unless compared to their opposites. We hold light dear because its absence is darkness. Crisp autumn mornings are sweeter when compared to summer's searing heat. Likewise, reward can't be fully valued without risk. The connection between risk and reward is a common element in ... MORE
Tait Trussell: Doctor's Fear For Medicine's Future
Incentives of ObamaCare are driving doctors away. In a new national poll, doctors say they must now decide if they can continue practicing medicine in their patients’ best interest or bow to bureaucratically-set restrictions that take precedence over patient necessities.

Evan Mackey: Fed to the Sharks by Political Correctness
There are still humans driven by dark urges. Cable television is replete with nature-themed shows these days. Some of the most popular are those that feature quirky blokes who get dangerously close to deadly animals, usually because they claim to have an understanding of the beasts. The results are predictably dangerous, and sometimes deadly. ... MORE

Death by government. Are police protectors of liberty or just agents of the state?

Thomas Sowell: 'Meaningful Work'
No job is menial. "Education" is a word that covers a lot of very different things, from vital, life-saving medical skills to frivolous courses to absolutely counterproductive courses that fill people with a sense of grievance and entitlement, without giving them either the skills to earn a living or a realistic understanding of the world required for a ...
