Facebook “Silences” Intellectual Debate On Climate Issues
Climate Feedback’s “fact-check” wasn’t about actual facts.
Roundabouts Are Better
I hate waiting at traffic lights. There’s a solution: traffic circles, or roundabouts.
‘Are You on the Take?’
Because a politically connected businessmen wants more for himself, and politicians have the power to demand that developers kiss their rings, Edgewater’s dump is still a dump.
Labor Shortage Caused by Government
Government handouts encourage dependence and create labor shortages.
Welfare for the Rich

Successful Without College
“Forgive student loans” really means workers must pay for privileged students who don’t.
Liberty Winning?

United Farm Workers Union “Activists” Invade a Strawberry Farm
The property invasion law’s supporters say the United Farm Workers union deserves the exception to property rules because rich farmers abuse migrant workers.
The Woke Awards: Racial Quotas Cheapen Oscar Awards
Today’s award shows aren’t about recognizing what’s best. They’re about pleasing the left.
Ending The Pandemic: Politicians Take Credit as Business Comes To The Rescue
When the pandemic ends, politicians will take credit, but the solution, as usual, began when politicians got out of the way.
Everyone Is “Essential”
Politicians have too much power over our lives. Many used the pandemic as another excuse to take more.
Save the Rhino!
Today’s environmental activists are so hostile to capitalism that they end up killing animals they want to protect.
