WHEN COMMUNISTS GET DESPERATE ENOUGH TO TRY CAPITALISM: Socialist Venezuela Proposes To Privatize Its Collapsing Oil Industry. I’m not sure why this lesson is never learned. I guess it’s just history that no longer exists because if history WAS studied, nobody would EVER let them near the levers of Power ever again. The Soviet Union never … Read more
No human being is immune to greed. Avarice. Lust (for power). Nor are they immune to what we sometimes refer to as the Seven Deadly sins. It is human nature. The best we can do is find ways to limit it. The founders thought this critical to the matter of government.
Prof. Walter E. Williams is one of my most favorite columnists – his writings are always about base Principles, his writings are pithy and instructive, and they are to the point in ways that most people can’t write similarly or with such clarity. While I do a lot of “notable quotes” and fisking of other … Read more
The American left has let the mask drop on socialism. Their candidates for president are running on it. So, isn’t it about time we accept the truth when they admit Climate Change is not about the climate – it’s about advancing socialism?
Governor Sununu was forced to veto a slew of bills in 2019 that would have increased or created taxes. In 2020, he’ll likely be made to do it again. Two democrats propose a NH Sales Tax of 4.3% in addition to all the other new taxes and tax increases that will inevitably reach the Governor’s … Read more
The Red Arrow Diner in Milford abruptly closed its doors, leaving some employees without a job only a few weeks before the Christmas holiday (or Chanukah for those who practice Judaism.) And, gosh darn capitalism came to the rescue again! In this case, the Copper Door saves the day. New Hampshire has an unemployment rate … Read more
If Socialists understood economics, they wouldn’t be socialists. I forgot who said that, but it wasn’t Liz Warren. The Multi-Millionaire candidate is charging $25.00 for a mug. The mug is printed with the phrase ‘Billionaire Tears.’ They must be tears of joy (to quote the Daily Caller).
Me: “Let me decide for myself.” Bernie-Bros (and the rest of the current den of Democrat Prez Wannabees: “We’ll decide from on high because you’re too stupid”. Freedom vs enforced “equality”. Self-interest vs Faux Moral Superiority. Individualism vs serfdom. How will you vote? Me? With Mises: (H/T: Cafe Hayek)
“Socialism is guilty of a fatal conceit: It believes its system can make better decisions for the people than they can for themselves.” I encourage anyone to go read this post that talks about Great Britain, India, and Israel and where they were to where they are economically – and from the standpoint of Freedom. … Read more
“What’s the Difference Between a Liberal and a Leftist? Dennis Prager often asks this question. Surprisingly it stumps many people. They think liberal and left are essentially the same. But they’re not. Liberalism and leftism have almost nothing in common. The Left has appropriated the word “liberal” so effectively almost everyone thinks they are synonymous. … Read more
The folks at Hasbro have had some fun with the un-fun angry people on the left. Last year they introduced the Socialism version of Monopoly and the leftists, naturally, are offended.
The Democrat presidential hopefuls are a Marxist lot. Even Joe Biden agrees they are all socialists. They are willing not only to accept but to promote open borders, cancelled college debt, tax-funded health care for illegal aliens and the Green New Deal… all without a thought to affordability. They want to eliminate private health insurance, … Read more
I just love Treehugger – just like I love CongressTwits AOC, Tlaib, Omar and Pressley. Just keep talking and talking, and talking some more. Pretty soon, they all end up either going off the deep end or proving my points for me. Either way, it is always a win-win-win for Free Market / Individual Liberty … Read more
Bernie vs. Bernie: Who Has Improved More Lives, Marcus Or Sanders? I will be delighted to see how the comments go on this one. BTW, one of them has pledged a big part of their wealth to charities – the other one has openly said he despises them. Also from the post: “Meet the creator. … Read more
If lifting people out of poverty and ending dependency is a goal the only system with the proven record of success is a Constitutional Republic with free market capitalism. So, why is it lost on so many that the Democrat party is in open rebellion against both?
The GraniteState has record low unemployment. Our labor force has swelled to historical highs. It’s an employee’s market with excellent wage and benefits options. We’re the fastest growing economy in New England. So, why is Democrat John Hickenlooper here telling us his plan to rescue and reboot American capitalism?
The internet is huge. Really huge. So incredibly huge…never mind, I’ll get to the point. You can’t see everything that’s out there so when we find something exceptional, we like to share. This is one of those times. Bill Whittle is tremendous, but this clip about Capitalism makes him more exceptional.
You don’t think that there’s just a whiff of Crony Capitalism embedded in here at all, do you? Bernie tried EVERYTHING to deflect what he SAYS about Capitalism (bad, bad, bad) compared to what he DOES. Like The Wizard of Oz saying, “Don’t pay attention to the man behind that curtain!!!” Simply, a Fraud. “Fine … Read more
A rose by any other name… Is it Nationalist Socialist or is it Democratic Socialist? I can never remember the difference, can you? Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez while sitting amidst the bounty provided by capitalism pontificates about the socialist goals we should be forced to accept. Amidst top notch electronic equipment and crowds of paid ticket … Read more
In the beginning… Once upon a time I considered myself to be “liberal.” I hung posters in the neighborhood for John Kennedy. But slowly, over time, a realization dawned on me. I was liberal because my political and moral philosophy was based on freedom, the rule of law, property rights, respect for life and equal … Read more
