A Lawsuit To Reclaim Property Rights From Prairie Dogs
by Michael Bastach. Attorneys representing property owners in Cedar City, Utah filed a lawsuit Thursday arguing that the federal government has overstepped its constitutional bounds by preventing residents from defending their property against a massive prairie dog infestation. “The federal government doesn’t have the authority to regulate a ... MOREJohn Fund: Government's Broke, Hooray
Washington has less money for bribes. Imagine what the media reaction would be if in the aftermath of yesterday’s Senate vote blocking new background checks, a leading official of the gun lobby had explained his side’s success by saying: “Bribery isn’t what it once was. The government has no money. Once upon a time you would throw ... MOREJeff Nesbit: Majority Now Backs Marijuana Legalization
Something to celebrate on "Weed Day." It's 4/20 time again this week. For those who aren't part of the Millennial generation, 4/20 is unofficial "Weed Day" in America —a counterculture phenomenon that has drawn up to 10,000 marijuana legalization activists at college campuses in the U.S. in some years. In years past, Weed Day counterculture ... MOREBarry Farber: Pitcher's Mound Needed In The White House
Why Obama deserves a 1-way trip to the showers. Do “Big-Guys” ever “approach the mound” in politics? You know, like in baseball when the pitcher’s doing a miserable job and is about to be replaced? It’s reliably reported that beheadings used to be the “sport” that filled the seats in the stadium in Afghanistan. You need not go that ... MOREAndrew Napolitano: Taxation Is Theft
Government deploys the mafia model. With a tax code that exceeds 72,000 pages in length and consumes more than six billion person hours per year to determine taxpayers' taxable income, with an IRS that has become a feared law unto itself, and with a government that continues to extract more wealth from every taxpaying American every year, ... MOREWashington Times: A Good Day For The 2nd Amendment
Common sense prevails in Senate! The president raged. The mayor of New York frothed. Joe Biden cried. But at the end of the day, common sense prevailed. The Senate killed the effort to unreasonably expand background checks for buyers of guns. The measure is not quite graveyard dead; it can be brought up again, but prospects for ... MOREAlexander Bolton: Rand Paul Mulls Presidential Run In 2016
A "larger microphone" to influence nation. Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), a star among Tea Party voters, said Wednesday he is considering running for president in 2016 in part because a White House bid would give him a "larger microphone" for his ideas. The freshman senator said he would decide in 2014 if he'll mount a campaign for the Republican nomination. ... MORETime To Repeal The Renewable Fuel Standard
by Robert Bradley Jr. If Washington were a business, counterproductive rules and regulations would be either reformed or revoked. But we’re not living in that world. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is gearing up to expand a destructive program that is criticized at both ends of the ideological divide. The ... MOREThe Power Of The State Vs The Power Of Love
by Robert Higgs. For thousands of years, philosophers have argued that society must invest great power in the rulers because only great power can hold back the forces of evil—violence, plunder, and disorder. They have often conceded, of course, that this solution does have an unfortunate aspect, namely, that with great power, the rulers themselves ... MORE
