Commentaries by:
“[State controlled] education is a weapon, whose effect depends on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed.” – Joseph Stalin
"[I]f you serve a child a rotten hamburger in America, federal, state, and local agencies will investigate you, summon you, close you down, whatever. But if you provide a child with a rotten education, nothing happens, except that you're liable to be given more money to do it with." --Ronald Reagan
“Give me four
years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be
uprooted.” - Vladimir Ilyich Lenin (1870-1924) |
The facts are that every form of wealth is dedicated to the improvement and advancement of the so-called common man. Capital, with negligible exceptions, is used for the orderly production and distribution of goods, 95 percent of which are consumed by those who claim to be disinherited. — William Feather
Please Just Tell The Truth By Theresa Fritz Camoriano Twisting and spinning the truth seems to be in fashion these days, but it really is getting out of hand now that we are close to election time. Politicians smear each other and sling mud, using lies and half-truths in order to get elected. Unfortunately, in the process, they are destroying their credibility and their ability to serve the best interests of the country. How can we have an honest debate about how to solve problems, and how can candidates get a mandate to govern on this basis? How can we get good people to run for office, when they risk being unfairly smeared and dragged through the mud? (click to read more)

man is a citizen. An unarmed man is a subject.
Does anyone consider it NEWS that a government intelligence report found that the war in Iraq has increased terrorism? Upon observing history and human behavior from recent times back to the ancients, one can hardly be surprised that a government program ends up creating the very opposite of what it purported to accomplish. Welfare increases poverty, the minimum wage boosts unemployment, prohibition promotes the banned behavior, and, just as we would expect once we understand the logic, the war on terror has created and encouraged the rise of more terrorism and the ideology that backs it.

A survey has shown that 85 percent of the economists in Canada and 90 percent of the economists in the United States say that minimum wage laws reduce employment. But you don't need a Ph.D. in economics to know that jacking up prices leads fewer people to buy. Those people include employers, who hire less labor when labor is made artificially more expensive. – Thomas Sowell

"Power always thinks it has a great soul and vast views beyond the comprehension of the weak; and that it is doing God's service when it is violating all his laws." ---John Adams
"The greatest good we can do our country is to heal its party divisions
and make them one people." "There is no dignity quite so impressive, and no independence so important, as living within your means." ---Calvin Coolidge
"Rudeness is the weak man's imitation of strength." ---Eric Hoffer
