On Columbus Day Celebrate Western Civilization Columbus should be honored, for in so doing, we honor Western civilization. But the critics do not want to bestow such honor, because their real goal is to denigrate the values of Western civilization and to glorify the primitivism, mysticism, and collectivism embodied in the tribal cultures of American Indians. … Some cultures are better than others: a free society is better than slavery; reason is better than brute force as a way to deal with other men; productivity is better than stagnation. http://capmag.com/article.asp?ID=3158

Trashing the rule of law – Walter Williams Abandonment of assumption-of-risk doctrine means Americans pay more, and will pay even more, for the goods and services.

Health by government:  even worse than death and taxes  - A government that provides for all of your body¹s health care needs will ultimately think and act as if it owns your body.

Paying dearly for free prescription drugs – Ron Paul The tragedy is that our society is allowing the pharmaceutical industry, phony senior lobbies, and vote-hungry politicians to force millions of older Americans into a government-run Medicare ghetto. http://www.house.gov/paul/tst/tst2003/tst100603.htm

What’s happening to science? As the legacy of Isaac Newton fades and physics continues its neurotic withdrawal from reality, our culture begins to lose sight of the glory of human nature: the faculty of reason. That is a frightening thought—because if man is not "the rational animal," then he is just an animal.  http://www.capmag.com/article.asp?ID=3147

Feds are Getting Cold Feet on Light Rail

We usually grumble when the federal government tries to govern us

from afar.  But every solar eclipse or so, the feds get it right and

we should pay attention.  Reason Analyst Ted Balaker suggests

that the federal government is in the midst of getting it right on

the heavy cost of light-rail systems, and that local government

should pay close attention.
