Interview of Ron Paul  You don’t have to give up freedom in order to protect freedom….I believe it is the responsibility of the airlines to protect their property as well as their passengers, just as an armored car has a responsibility, if necessary, to protect its cargo with guns. … When Bush talks, he does not sound like he is an advocate of big government. But if you look at what has happened in the last three years of his administration—whether it is in medicine, education, the Department of Homeland Security, military adventurism or nation building—big government has been thriving. If you look at the budget and the exploding deficits, this would confirm that belief. …To win any battle, you do not have to convert a majority. You have to convert a determined minority who are in a position of influence. http://www.rutherford.org/articles/oldspeak-Ronpaul.asp

 

The Brotherhood of Man – Thomas Sowell - Americans hearing the siren song of collective restitution today might well look at what such attempts at restitution have produced in other places and times, especially if they believe in the brotherhood of man. http://www.capmag.com/article.asp?ID=3511

 

Weapons of Political Destruction – Thomas Sowell - Those who see every war as another Vietnam have tried to depict President Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair as having hyped the intelligence reports to justify an unjustifiable war. An investigation in Britain indicates that those who pushed that line at the left-wing BBC were the liars. http://www.capmag.com/article.asp?ID=3512

Governed by Rules, Not Men - Walter Williams - Having been deserted by her husband, my mother worked. That meant that my one-year-younger sister and I often lunched by ourselves during our pre-teen years. Being bigger and stronger than my sister, quite often there wouldn't be a fair division of the food, especially the desserts. … There came a time when Mom got fed up with the sibling hassles -- but she didn't admonish us to be more caring, fair, sensitive and considerate of one another. She just made a new rule: whoever cuts the cake (pie, bread, meat, etc.) gives the other person the first selection. … The nation's welfare is served best by focusing not on political personalities, but on neutral rules of the game and their even application and enforcement. ……http://www.capmag.com/article.asp?ID=3510

Affordable housing – Thomas Sowell- No doubt there are reasons for each of the many restrictions and requirements that bureaucrats think up. But when people are spending their own money, they decide that everything that can possibly be done does not have to be done, because often it is just not worth it. No such constraint exists when bureaucrats are imposing costs on others. … Meanwhile, the great mantra of "affordable housing" rings out across the land, often proclaimed by those who are making housing unaffordable, even by the affluent.   http://www.capmag.com/article.asp?ID=3509
