Zenon Evans: Socialists Are Cheaters, Says New Study

Katie Kieffer: Socialism Punked You, Millennials

A window of opportunity arises.     “Here’s your drink, darling,” the bartender said with a smile. He seemed upbeat as he made drinks and greeted customers. “Do you like your job?” I asked him. “I hate it,” he confessed. “Honestly, I hate my job.” I keep running into young people who put on a show of being happy with their lives but, when   ...

Walter E Williams: Concealing Evil

The slavery liberals love.      Evil acts are given an aura of moral legitimacy by noble-sounding socialistic expressions, such as spreading the wealth, income redistribution, caring for the less fortunate, and the will of the majority. Let's have a thought experiment to consider just how much Americans sanction evil. Imagine there are several elderly  ... MORE

Thomas Sowell: Fact-Free Liberals

Read all four parts of this essay!     Someone summarized Barack Obama in three words — "educated," "smart" and "ignorant." Unfortunately, those same three words would describe all too many of the people who come out of our most prestigious colleges and universities today. President Obama seems completely         ...

Reading between the syllables.      Statism, the concentration of power in the government at the expense of individual liberty, cannot be sold to the American people.
