"[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."

"Society in every state is a blessing, but government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one; for when we suffer or are exposed to the same miseries by a government, which we might expect in a country without government, our calamity is heightened by reflecting that we furnish the means by which we suffer." -- Thomas Paine (Common Sense, 1776)

Following Europe toward tyranny            By Henry Lamb

It doesn't happen quickly. It's been a half-century since the European Common Market was created to enhance cross-border trade in coal and steel among six European countries. The next 40 years saw the idea of cross-border "harmonization" expand into the European Community, with the 1992 Maastricht Treaty.

U.N. Imposes New Iranian Sanctions--Does it Matter?          By: Michael A. Minton

During this never-ending primary presidential campaign season, most of the mainstream media, and bloggers, for that matter, seem to forget that there is a world outside of the United States that still spins. I know I am guilty. While compiling my new book, “Mr. Right Opinion-Unplugged and Unashamed,” I noticed that I have written very few articles in recent months that were not campaign related.       (click to read more)

Well, it’s not late December, and it’s not back in ‘63, but I think it’s fair to say, “Oh What a Night.” Super Tuesday-Part Deux proved to be just that…super. The Republicans finally can say they have a nominee, and Democrats can say they have mass confusion.       (click to read more)

 

In a global economy, as in the NFL, there’s no secret about how to succeed. Economic freedom makes a country wealthier and its people more comfortable. Our planet is engaged in an economic competition that can make everyone a winner. As more countries race to embrace more economic freedom, more people will enjoy longer, healthier and happier lives. – Ed Feulner
