Not government. Sorry Occupy, the majority of Americans believe capitalism and a free market made this country great, not the government, despite President Obama recently crediting the government with American success. Obama cited a series of government "investments." Obama said that Republicans have "one message and that is, we're going to make sure ... MOREKatie Pavlich: Free Market Makes America Great
Not government. Sorry Occupy, the majority of Americans believe capitalism and a free market made this country great, not the government, despite President Obama recently crediting the government with American success. Obama cited a series of government "investments." Obama said that Republicans have "one message and that is, we're going to make sure ... MOREScott Lemieux: All The State's Spies
Will crony capitalists become government spies? Congress is seriously considering a bill called the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act (CISPA). Intended to allow information sharing both between corporations and between corporations and the government, it presents serious dangers to individual privacy. The most important parts of ... MOREPaul Stanley: Pelosi, Democrats Seek To Limit Free Speech
An assault on the First Amendment. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and other congressional Democrats are throwing their support behind an effort to overturn a Supreme Court ruling despite warnings by critics that the effort would severely limit free speech. In 2010 the U.S. Supreme Court, in a 5-4 decision, ruled in the case Citizens United ... MOREMike Riggs: 4 Industries Getting Rich Off The Drug War
Those who are profiting from "crime." In a 2011 interview, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said that legalization is “not likely to work” because “there is just too much money in it.” Clinton was talking about cartels, but the same holds true for the legal industries that owe their profit margins, market shares, and—in some cases—very existence to the war on drugs. ... MORENational Review: Free John Edwards
The questionable prosecution of John Edwards. John Edwards, the Dorian Gray of the Democratic party, is one of the most loathsome characters in American politics, corrupt himself and a source of corruption in others, a preening, moralizing fraud who went so far as to have a staffer claim paternity of the illegitimate child he fathered with a campaign contractor. ... MOREVIDEO: Who Was America's Greatest President?
Libertarian economist Murray Rothbard's answer WILL surprise you.
Doug Casey: Sociopathy Is Running The U.S.
When demise becomes "a mat ter of psychology." I recently wrote an article that addresses the subject of sociopaths and how they insinuate themselves into society. Although the subject doesn't speak directly to what stock you should buy or sell to increase your wealth, I think it's critical to success in the markets. It goes a long way ... MORERoss Kaminsky: A Dark Day For Solar Power
An unaffordable feel-good luxury. First Solar Corporation was indeed first at something: It was the first solar company to lose more than $15 billion of market value. FSLR's stock plummeted from $140 per share a year ago, and $170 a few weeks before that, to under $21 per share early this week before rebounding modestly on Tuesday. In fact $15 billion ... MOREGreg Beato: The Gun Explosion
Why the firearms boom is good news for our economy. In a February 2012 fund-raising appearance, President Barack Obama expressed his desire to keep America’s assembly lines humming. “I want to make sure the next generation of manufacturing isn’t taking root just in Asia or Europe,” he told a crowd of supporters. “I want it taking root in ... MOREMichael Bargo Jr: A Battle Democrats Cannot Afford To Win
Actions speak louder than words. There is one project that liberals never complete -- a task that is talked about all the time, especially during campaigns, but for some reason just can't get done. It is "making the rich pay their fair share" of taxes. Somehow, even though President Obama and his party found the time to write ObamaCare and a huge plan of ... MORE
Lee A. Helig: Watching the Watchers
Somehow, we knew this day would come. Congress and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) are partnering with legislation and execution of the deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles for use by law enforcement agencies across the country. Recent advancements in reducing the weight, size and related costs of sophisticated aerial ... MOREAndrew Napolitano: A Government Of Waste
A vast, lawless wasteland. What can we learn from allegations against a half-dozen supervisors in the Government Services Administration for wasting, and perhaps stealing, taxpayer dollars on foolishness in Las Vegas, and against a dozen Secret Service agents for dangerously procuring prostitutes in Cartagena, Colombia, while there to prepare for a ...
