FREE SPEECH ON CAMPUSES: The little fascists can't abide dissent, it might overturn their phony constructs.

THE ILL EFFECTS OF CODDLING: Liberals are the problem. Their world view is flawed.

SOCIALISM AND ARMAGEDDON GO TOGETHER: Crony capitalism is rampant because for many it works, for a while anyway.  Add this to the toxic mess. Also, over 100 and 50 years ago Sumner expressed the issue well:

William Graham Sumner: The State As A Means to Theft

Flashback to the most influential professor in America between 1865 and 1900, William Graham Sumner:

History is only a tiresome repetition of one story. Persons and classes have sought to win possession of the power of the state in order to live luxuriously out of the earnings of others. Autocracies, aristocracies, theocracies, and all other organizations for holding political power, have exhibited only the same line of action. It is the extreme of political error to say that if political power is only taken away from generals, nobles, priests, millionaires, and scholars, and given to artisans and peasants, these latter may be trusted to do only right and justice, and never to abuse the power; that they will repress all excess in others, and commit none themselves. They will commit abuse, if they can and dare, just as others have done. The reason for the excesses of the old governing classes lies in the vices and passions of human nature — cupidity, lust, vindictiveness, ambition, and vanity. These vices are confined to no nation, class, or age. They appear in the church, the academy, the workshop, and the hovel, as well as in the army or the palace. They have appeared in autocracies, aristocracies, theocracies, democracies, and ochlocracies, all alike. The only thing which has ever restrained these vices of human nature in those who had political power is law sustained by impersonal institutions. If political power be given to the masses who have not hitherto had it, nothing will stop them from abusing it but laws and institutions. To say that a popular government cannot be paternal is to give it a charter that it can do no wrong. The trouble is that a democratic government is in greater danger than any other of becoming paternal, for it is sure of itself, and ready to undertake anything, and its power is excessive and pitiless against dissentients.

It appears Professor Sumner understood human nature in politics much better than today's political scientists.

GLOBAL WARMING CHARTS:When does this farce stop?

IT'S ALL ECONOMICS, STUPID: Ah, those pesky regulations again. The beat goes on and on and the innovation goes down and down, see here.

IT'S A POLITICAL RUSE FOR GOD'S SAKE: This was really quite obvious when you think about it.

THE CASE FOR CRUZ: It's a strong case. He is a Constitutional conservative.

ENVY IS A DEADLY SIN: And at the root of all economic equal outcome arguments, period.

DROP DEAD FUNNY: Hopefully not completely far-fetched.

THEY SIMPLY DON'T CARE: These clowns perfected the art of free-loading off taxpayers.

THEY'RE OUT THERE: Spoken like a true conservative. There aren real school's in America.

PRESERVING THE PAST: Sasse's the hope to prevent dictatorship of the administrative state.

THEY' UNHIREABLE, A LOST GEN.  Anyone heard of Grove State or Hillsdale and Wabash?????


KEEP AN EYE ON THE LATEST CLINTON CORRUPTION: It's a wonder what the Clintons can and do get away with.

A REAL BREAKTHROUGH IN THE WORKS: This will be helpful to many sufferers of debilitating pain in the extremities.

FRAUDULENT OBAMACARE: This incredible ripoff program is appropriately named for its fraud originator.
