Treehugger: At Least Lloyd Taught Me a New Word – CAVE

Sometimes I spend too much time on Treehugger. Well, after all, it’s sometimes a great place to sharpen my arguments against authoritarianism, eco-socialism, and neo-aristocrats that decided that their Enviro-Nirvana MUST be achieved regardless of what you and I think about their end point and ESPECIALLY how they want to drag us to it. And yes, … Read more

If Freedom is Worth All the Ink and Sweat and Blood Spilled for It Over the Centuries…

America is the most prosperous nation on Earth. Social justice rhetoric insists we must bring identical prosperity to each and every person.

Biden Bones Up

Biden’s Covert Conversion to Socialism

This is not Joe Biden’s first presidential run, nor is it his first encounter with character issues.  During the campaign of 1987, Biden’s presidential ambitions were derailed after voters learned he had plagiarized a campaign speech.  That led to the revelation that he had also plagiarized several pages of a paper while in law school.  … Read more

Being Outed As A Conservative

What causing political change? In America today the political landscape is shifting. That is the natural result of polarization. The underlying truth is that over the last few decades a billion people worldwide have lifted themselves out of poverty. This happened because capitalism was deployed with globalization of markets. The greatest benefits accrued in China … Read more

The Real Agents of Change

Democrats like to promote themselves as change agents.  Agents of change.  And this makes them hip.  Modern.  Progressive.  But nothing could be further from the truth.

Democrats promote the politicization of everything and by extension the bureaucratization of everything.  To them government is the best arbiter of progress.  But the process of making government the dispatcher of innovation has exactly the opposite effect.  It creates barriers to entry, reduces choices, dries up resources or locks them away, and leaves a few cumbersome behemoths who plod along beside big government, benefiting from their shared monopoly on “progress.”
