Given Iran’s and North Korea’s advancement toward nuclear weapons, the threat of catastrophic attack against the United States is a legitimate concern. So is America’s military preparedness. Whether on the left or on the right, most people recognize that national...

ObamaCare Phase Two: Point the Gun at Your Doctor
The New York Post reports that New York doctors are “treating ObamaCare like the plague,” according to a new survey. See? I told you so. A poll conducted by the New York State Medical Society finds that 44 percent of MDs said they are not participating in the nation’s...
A Very Dangerous Game: The Knockout Game and Polar Bear Hunting
The main reason for many people’s surprise is that the mainstream media have usually suppressed news about the “knockout game” or about other and larger forms of similar orchestrated racial violence in dozens of cities in every region of the country.
The War Against Achievement
The last thing the political left needs, or can even afford, are self-reliant individuals.
A Relief Program for Economic Freedom?
What can actually help people in third-world countries the most?
Social Security and Medicare Fiction: Do Americans Prefer Deception?
“Nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public.”
ObamaCare’s First Few Years
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act—otherwise known as ObamaCare—is almost four years old. Despite the technical troubles, what every American should know about the law is that whatever its provisions, whatever the press propagandizes or reports, the...
Tea Party at the Crossroads: Part II
Trying to defund ObamaCare without the Congressional votes to do so, the Tea Party made a major tactical mistake.
Does Washington Know Best?
Congress and the president are taking over an area of our lives infinitely more challenging and complex than the management of traffic signals and supermarkets, namely our health care system.
Tea Party at the Crossroads
The Tea Party’s principles were clear. But their tactics can only be judged by the consequences.
Why are America’s Top Generals Being Fired?
The nation’s top military generals are being fired by the Obama administration one by one, according to a recent Reuters report. It’s a disturbing trend for several reasons. The government says that each firing does not indicate any type of breach of U.S. military...
“Victims” of capitalism?
As the system consistent with requirements of human survival and flourishing, understanding capitalism is in our self-interest.
Chris Christie: The Next Republican Loser?
The Republican Party is the “Stupid Party” for a reason. It’s trying to put the proverbial lipstick on a pig, and then pretend it’s not a pig.
America’s Social Security Ponzi Scheme: Congressionally Duped Americans
The only way Congress can send checks to Social Security and Medicare recipients is to take the earnings of a person currently in the workforce. The way Congress conceals its Ponzi scheme is to dupe Social Security and Medicare recipients into thinking that it’s their money that is put away and invested.
Obamacare: An Old ‘New’ Program To Establish a Government Monopoly In Health Insurance
Politicians love to play Santa Claus by handing out favors to voters, while depicting insurance companies as Scrooge when they raise insurance premiums to cover the costs of government mandates.
Obamacare’s Failure is Not Just a Technology Problem
Like public education, public housing, and public toilets, the government’s virtual takeover of the health insurance market is doomed to fail, because government intervention in the economy is always doomed to fail.
Throw the Rascals Out?: The Need For A One Term Limit
A one-term limit would simultaneously limit how long special interests could expect a pay-off from their campaign contributions. It would also limit, indeed eliminate, the need for millions of dollars of campaign contributions to stay in office.
Throw the Rascals Out?
The first step in limiting, and then scaling back, government itself must be limiting the time that anyone can remain in office — preferably limited to one term, to make it harder to become career politicians, a species we can well do without.
America’s Entitlement Mentality: Is There a Way Out?
Despite the fact that today’s increasing levels of federal government spending are unsustainable, there is little evidence that Americans have the willingness to do anything about it.
Loving and Hating America
I’m wondering how the hate-America/blame-America-first crowd might explain the fact that so many people in the world, if they had a chance, would permanently relocate here. Maybe it’s that they haven’t been exposed to enough U.S. university professors.
Race-Hustling Results: Polarization of American Society and Future Race Wars
More dangerous are the innumerable organized and unprovoked physical attacks on whites by young black gangs in shopping malls, on beaches and in other public places all across the country today.
Race-Hustling Results: Washington Redskins and “White Guilt”
The blind and dishonest political correctness of our media and educational institutions on racial issues today can eventually forfeit the confidence of Americans and give similar extremist groups their chance to ignite a race war in the United States. And once a race war starts, it can be virtually impossible to stop.
Race-Hustling Results
Some people try to explain why Asians, and Asian-Americans, succeed so well in education and in the economy by some special characteristics that they have. That may be true, but their success may also be due to what they do not have — namely “leaders” who tell them that the deck is so stacked against them that they cannot rise, or at least not without depending on “leaders.”
Embracing the Nanny State vs. Valuing Freedom
We should guard freedom vigilantly against the encroachment of the nanny state—if we value our survival and happiness. The only way to do it is to embrace freedom and reject altruism—and to do so on principle.
