Capitalism = Freedom

Sometimes you read something and you think, “Wow… I wish I’d said that.” Or, “He just said exactly what I wanted to say.” This happens a lot with John Hayward’s writing. His post at Human Events: The Moral Case For Capitalism is an absolute MUST READ. Excerpt: If you would refuse to be a servant [...]

Everyone must read this column by John Hayward: Empire of Debt.  Here’s just one section I loved: Debt is not universally interpreted as a sign of failure on the part of government planners.  On the contrary, it becomes a weapon used to demand more taxes.  The same politicians who spent $1.7 trillion more than they [...]

Wow… THIS is Interesting

John Hayward (the artist formerly known as Doc Zero) hits on something that I’ve always found interesting but had never summed up the way he does in this post at Human Events: The Fifty State Solution. What I’ve always noticed is that Obama’s rhetoric to foreigners is completely at odds with his domestic policy.  While [...]

Confessions of a Right-Wing Social Engineer, by John Hayward (the artist formerly known as Doctor Zero) at Human Events is a must read.  Not only do I love John’s style, but he hits the nail on the head time after time.  A sample: We live among the ruins of nearly a century of left-wing social [...]

You know what scares me?  When a politician says they want to create jobs.  Now, if a politician (like Paul Ryan) says something like, “We want to create an environment where the private sector can create jobs” I’m happy as a clam. I haven’t posted on this subject in a while, but my biggest pet [...]

From John Hayward (Doctor Zero) at Human Events: Investment VS Spending, Debunking one of Obamas More Annoying Talking Points.

Our old friend Doctor Zero, John Hayward, has a great post at Human Events: The Importance of Stability.  He’s talking about how government provides instability where the free market needs stability to function. Also at Human Events, Gov. Bobby Jindal writes: A Stronger America, A Safer World.

How awesome is this line?

From Doctor Zero’s post, Who Wants The Government to Create Jobs? …it is only possible to siphon a certain amount of blood from the free market, before the State begins to strip away muscle. I always want to slap politicians, of either party, who say the government is “creating jobs”.  Unless they’re talking about positions [...]

Doctor Zero puts the latest Democrat election strategy into focus today: Everywhere you look this election season, the sales pitch is the same: it’s Democrats or the Devil.  The Party and its President claim the moral and intellectual strength to run every aspect of our lives, and confiscate limitless amounts our income… but they won’t [...]
