The greatest soldiers of American history knew that freedom was sacred; no price paid on its behalf was a sacrifice.

Memorial Day: What We Owe Our Soldiers
To send soldiers into war without a clear self-defense purpose, and without providing them every possible protection, is a betrayal of their valor and a violation of their rights.
Welfare for the Rich
Politicians always promise that public investment will return more in benefits to taxpayers. But it’s not true.

Giving You Health Care “Equally”
The government must take good medical care from those who have it and redistribute it to those who do not.
“Building Back Better” Schemes vs. Individual Rights
Whether the “build back better” schemes will actually improve citizens’ lives, as the governments imply, depends on the definition of “better.”
Let Us Be Clear Once and For All: Socialism Is Not at Root About Economics!
For the Conservatives, Capitalism is moral only to the extent that the capitalist lives to serve others. Self-interest can be smuggled silently in but not as a moral right or as a moral ideal. This means that “creeping socialism” always has the advantage and thus creeps unabated.
An Electoral College Within Each State
Instead of the United States abandoning the Electoral College, state legislatures should take us in exactly the opposite direction. From now on, they should abandon a statewide popular vote for president, and instead either appoint electors directly or implement an Electoral College-type system within each state.
Restrict Political Pickpockets To End Budget Deficits
Our dilemma, today, is that, to use John Stuart Mill’s phrase, we have a political system in which many who have the right to vote use it “to put their hands into other people’s pockets for any purpose which they think fit to call a public one.”
Dr. Fauci’s Mutating Covid Advice
In just under a year’s time, Fauci’s messaging on reinfection and herd immunity has now mutated across dozens of variants of its own, each conveniently aligning with his political messaging of the moment.
The Myth of Widespread White Supremacy
The Leftist feeding frenzy regarding white supremacy is a chimera.
A Pandemic of Fiscal Profligacy
The Democrats’ $1.9 trillion “American Rescue” plan, which has little to do with rescuing and everything to do with using the pandemic as an excuse to move the country closer to statism. The latest $1.9 trillion addition to the federal debt is best described as a left-wing slush fund.
A Declaration and Constitution for a Free Society
Making the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution Fully Consistent with the Protection of Individual Rights.
The Case Against Slavery Reparations
Moral responsibility is individual, not collective. It is volitional, not deterministic. Moral responsibility is based on an individual’s choices, not on one’s racial membership.
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.
Individualism is the Political Foundation of Healthcare
Individualism remains the best tool to deny government the power to force us to buy health insurance in general or forbid the purchase of the kind of health care plan we prefer.
Yuval Noah Harari’s Terrifying Pandemic Future
It is a scary world into which Professor Harari wants us to “live.”
Universal Freedom: The Only Hope for Health Care
“Universal Health Care” is the increasing drumbeat of advocates who want Americans to place all responsibility for their health care in the hands of government.
Planning An Escape Hatch In Case Your Government Goes Full On Socialist
Escape hatches are crucial when things go wrong. When rule by the people becomes rule over the people, when slight authoritarianism becomes tyranny, you want a way out.
The Primary Obstacle To COVID-19 Mass Vaccination is Not The Free Market But Government Regulation
The effort to get vaccinated is akin to sitting at the back of a 9-month long DMV line. Welcome to vaccine central planning.
Incompetent Government with Absolute Power Kills Grandma and Grandpa
As early as last May, barely two months after the start of the state lockdown, a New York Post columnist groused: “So Gov. Andrew Cuomo killed Grandma and cratered New York’s economy. But he looked good doing it.”
“National Conservatism” Betrays America’s Founding Ideals
“National conservatism” seeks to subjugate the “I” to the authority of the “we.” The emergence of “national conservatism” is an ominous trend for American political life. Its advocates often stress the themes of patriotism and love of country and even political freedom. But the substance of their views is a betrayal of America’s founding ideals.
Dr. Anthony S. Fauci’s Political Posturing In The Name of Science
It’s time to stop listening to Fauci, and time to stop treating his wildly inconsistent political posturing as if it carries any scientific authority.
