Poverty, Christians and Capitalism

Please read the article "Free Market Generosity" starting on page 24.  The one consistent factor in eliminating poverty is the individual's private property rights.  Let's not forget that John Locke and Thomas Jefferson both claimed that God gave us unalienable rights, and among them is the right to property (the Declaration of Independence had that instead of 'happiness' until the final draft).  Even Milton Friedman made the point that capitalism (individual/private property rights) is a necessary (but not sufficient) factor to have a free society where people are free to choose for themselves.

Public school performance...

If public high schools were to charge a modest tuition (please, don't get hung up on what that might be), what would the impact be on the quality of education?

“The first lesson of economics is scarcity: There is never enough of anything to satisfy all those who want it. The first lesson of politics is to disregard the first lesson of economics.”

Tech and YOU!

Funny thing...we always suspected it, but now...hmmm.....

Environmental Fascism and YOU

This is a graphic video.  It is made in 'sincerity' by green freaks.  Green Freaks are those who would do whatever to limit the liberties and choice of others.  Live-and-let-live is not in their vocabulary.
