Democrat Mayor Jim Donchess of Nashua has changed the city’s policy regarding the flagpoles in front of city hall.

Freedom of Association and Cancel Culture

Murray Rothbard conceptualized liberty as an emanation of property rights and self-ownership. Freedom of association is, therefore, best understood as “a subset of private property rights.” Just as property rights are absolute and limited only by respect for other people’s property rights, freedom of association is absolute and constrained only by other people’s freedom to … Read more

Bureaucrats Worry Democracy Will Get In The Way Of Their Climate Agenda

I have frequently written over the last several years that the agenda of the climate-alarm lobby in the western world is not consistent with the maintenance of democratic forms of government.

Why Are You So Sure They Won’t Come for Your ‘Speech’?

Be they bewildering, perplexing, or just puzzling, the world is filled with things that don’t seem to or perhaps don’t always make sense. Not right away, nor even after some measure of consideration.

I keep thinking that his missive below is just because of stupidity. Or it is purely ideological in nature, given his vociferous attempts on Policy JBAB to ensure suppression of the Free Speech of students and adults on school property concerning “preferred pronouns.” And that Staff can be forced by the School Board’s policy to … Read more

Bill Gates Likes Free Speech (If It Makes Him Money …)

Bill Gates probably recognizes that productive expressions, whether physical, intellectual, or verbal, are the vehicles by which acquiring property is possible.

Thou Shalt not (Thou, being the government) make laws abridging the freedom of speech or the press. It’s quite encompassing, as is the … Read more
