As green energy failed. It's hard to remember now that President Obama's agenda has degenerated into a sham gun control bill with loopholes big enough to drive a Mack truck through, but back in 2008, progressives had big dreams about how to reshape the entire U.S. economy, starting with the energy sector. For years, liberal ... MOREConn Carroll: American Energy Revolutionized By Fracking
As green energy failed. It's hard to remember now that President Obama's agenda has degenerated into a sham gun control bill with loopholes big enough to drive a Mack truck through, but back in 2008, progressives had big dreams about how to reshape the entire U.S. economy, starting with the energy sector. For years, liberal ... MOREMark Hendrickson: Big Brother Is Increasingly Watching You
Every breath you take, every move you make. One of the most hotly debated of all individual rights is the right to privacy. Generations of immigrants came to the United States
to escape religious persecution, economic oppression, and the danger of
becoming embroiled in the Old World’s frequently recurring wars. These
reasons are variations ... MOREPaul Lilly: Florida Bans Internet Cafes
There was too much freedom going on. Well, it's official. Florida governor Rick Scott signed into legislation the "Internet Cafe Ban," which effectively closed down around 1,000 such establishments in the state. The ban went into effect immediately, though some cafes shut their doors a week ago under the assumption that the ban would go through. ... MOREAndrew Napolitano: Obama Expands His Power To Kill
While reducing our capacity to defend ourselves. Does the government work for us, or do we work for the government? How can the president claim the lawful power to kill whomever he wishes and at the same time ask Congress to incapacitate our ability to defend ourselves against those who might seek to kill us? Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul ... MOREBob Taylor: Jackie Robinson And Political Correctness
Society is an ever-evolving process. Jackie Robinson did more than simply change the face of baseball when he broke the race barrier in the sport sixty-six years ago. Robinson changed the course of history. He opened the gates for African American athletes to compete in all team sports, not just baseball and, in the process, he was also a major catalyst in ... MORERobert Higgs: ABC's For Today's Public School Students
A is for Alzheimer’s Disease. If you eat lots of vegetables and floss your teeth, you will live a long time and get this condition as your reward. B is for Baconator. If thou shouldst ever eat one, thou shalt surely die. C is for Crumbling Infrastructure, an incantation government officials mutter when they want to spend more of the public’s money ... MOREMatthew Walther: Rand The Realist
The Kentucky senator is his own man. Rand Paul’s shirts always seem to fit. Look at almost any
picture of him: The jacket lapel is always touching the tip of his
collar, if only just barely. His untamed curls notwithstanding, he
looks professional, put together, serious. The junior senator from
Kentucky wasn’t wearing a jacket when I sat down ... MORETibor R. Machan: Corruption Of Individual Rights
Now we have the 'right' to coerce. Whenever a good idea surfaces, there will surely be many who will try to hitch their wagon to it filled with corrupt versions that aim to serve numerous purposes having little to do with the original good idea. One example is the idea of individual natural human rights. Some simply disagree with the idea, like Jeremy ... MORECharles C. W. Cooke: A Tax On Freedom
High taxes on guns and ammo punish the law-abiding. ‘I’m not asking to take away people’s guns,” Maryland legislator Jon Cardin nervously told Politico this week. “I’m just saying that for an activity that is relatively dangerous, obviously, people who participate in that activity should pay the full costs of that activity.” America, witness a ...
