Ron Paul — The Spirit of 76!
2012-01-17
Ron Paul's appeal and his early primary success seems to baffle both mainstream pundits and the party-devoted alike. Trying to figure it out, Robert Stacy McCain asks:
How is it, for example, that a 76-year-old with a reedy voice — his appearance and manner not remotely "presidential" by the usual standards of the TV age — is an idol to so many youth?
Did Ron Paul Win Iowa?
2012-01-06
Neoconservative strategist Karl Rove declared: "A Big Win for Romney in Iowa!" Funny, because during the week's leading up to this year's Iowa Caucus, Establishment surrogates like Rove were busy telling us how much Iowa doesn't matter.

It's Rule 5 Monday!
The continued cries for "leadership" coming from both the political left and right in America these days shows just how far we've moved away from being freemen. This is a dangerous habit. Especially because democratic popular elections always give rise to "increasingly bad and dangerous individuals."
Why Bad Men Rule
One of the most widely accepted propositions among political economists is the following: Every monopoly is bad from the viewpoint of consumers. Monopoly is understood in its classical sense to be an exclusive privilege granted to a single producer of a commodity or service, i.e., as the absence of free entry into a particular line of production. In other words, only one agency, A, may produce a given good, x. Any such monopolist is bad for consumers because, shielded from potential new entrants into his area of production, the price of the monopolist's product x will be higher and the quality of x lower than otherwise.
