There is such a thing as a free lunch -- except for taxpayers. The Obama administration is busy expanding the exact type of vicious, ungrateful underclass which recently exploded in London. An administration program will expand free school meal coverage to millions of young people who are not even supposed to be eligible. A stated goal of the program is to eliminate the stigma of ...

There is such a thing as a free lunch -- except for taxpayers. The Obama administration is busy expanding the exact type of vicious, ungrateful underclass which recently exploded in London. An administration program will expand free school meal coverage to millions of young people who are not even supposed to be eligible. A stated goal of the program is to eliminate the stigma of ... MOREBrent Bozell: NPR - The Statism Network
Big government propaganda at taxpayer expense. One of the greatest perversions of statism is the use of taxpayer money to push for ever more government spending and intervention. A casual listener to the far-left end of the FM dial, National Public Radio, will quickly conclude that NPR is one of America's leading offenders in this perversion. Let's just take one ... MOREWalter E Williams: No Obligation To Obey Immoral Laws
Doing so only leads to lost liberty. What laws are we morally obligated to obey? Help with the answer can be found in "Economic Liberty and the Constitution," a 66-page pamphlet by Jacob G. Hornberger, founder and president of The Future of Freedom Foundation. Hornberger offers a hypothetical whereby Congress enacts a compulsory church attendance ...

Sterling Burnett: EPA's Toxic Regulations
An ongoing assault on the economy. Affordable energy is critical for a prosperous economy.

MOREA. Barton Hinkle: Airport Security vs. The Constitution

Tobey is the guy who stripped down to his shorts at the Richmond, Virginia airport last December. Rumsfeld is the former Defense Secretary under George W. Bush. Tobey, who was protesting the invasive airport screening practices that have outraged ... MOREThe Superiority Of School Vouchers Demonstrated
by Gary Jason. The failure of the American K-12 public school system has been obvious for decades. Some of us fossils can recall the public uproar that accompanied the release of the report "A Nation at Risk" back in 1987, documenting the mediocre at best, disastrously bad at worst performance of the nation's public schools. The public school special interest groups ... MOREMike Riggs: Gary Johnson Bets Big On New Hampshire
Can a nice guy finish first in the Live Free or Die State? Republican Gary Johnson hopes so. “I’m putting my chips on the table in New Hampshire,” the former two-term governor of New Mexico said today at a National Press Club luncheon. Despite being a no-show in Ames, Iowa, Johnson has rented an office and hired four “young ideologues” as staffers in New Hampshire. ... MOREMark Steyn: The Imperial Presidency
Obama's strikingly Latin American message. Rick Perry, governor of Texas, has only been in the presidential race for 20 minutes, but he’s already delivered one of the best lines in the campaign: “I’ll work every day to try to make Washington, D.C., as inconsequential in your life as I can.” This will be grand news to Schylar Capo, eleven years old, of Virginia, who made the ...
