Quick Shot on Capitalism

Capitalism is the only system that creates economic efficiency as value is created. When not distorted by external forces, capital flows to areas of need where it can be most effectively used to create that value. It causes organizations to employ human capital and raw materials in just the right amount to produce value at…

I Was Told There Would Be No Math

There are two mathematical concepts that almost everybody intuitively knows – even if you attended public schools anytime within the past 30 years or so.

Economic Freedom = Individual Freedom

“There’s no justice in the distribution of income and wealth. I never would argue there is. Those who are wealthy don’t deserve to be wealthy anymore than those who are poor deserve to be poor. It’s pure accident. And we — but if you start to look at things that way, you’re going to go…

“Fairness” = Lawlessness

PRINCIPLES OF NATURAL LAW: There is NO ‘Fairness’ Under Natural Law Posted on January 30, 2015 Now that I have addressed the principles of Natural Law as they relate to money, I think we need to address the notion of ‘fairness.’  In general, whenever we hear someone talking about ‘fairness,’ we can assume they probably mean…

My Malthusian Perspective

I’ve been really negative over the past few years…actually since about midway through the first W.Bush term due to how the Democrats, having recovered from their momentary brush with reality after 9/11, saw political advantage in every single wartime setback and chose to honor their 60’s anti-establishment roots by ripping America and every citizen who…

The Wisdom of Mike Rowe

Mike Rowe is famous for his TV show, “Dirty Jobs” and this brilliant Wal-Mart commercial that drew ire from the progressives in America who hate Wal-Mart…and apparently honest, hard work: In my opinion, Rowe is a modern version of Thomas Jefferson and James Madison all rolled into one. He has taken on the progressive ethos…

In short, it illustrates what happens…

FUNDAMENTALS IN NATURAL LAW: The Govt. Position on Hobby Lobby and Corporations is Correct This post will not make the majority of Christians, Conservatives or even many Libertarians very happy with me, but it is still the truth.
