Oct 18, 2025

“We're going to join our voices together and let the message ring loud and clear that we are uneducated rubes in desperate need of a middle-school social studies class,” said one man.

Murphy on America

Feb 11, 2025

“The true meaning of America, you ask? It’s in a Texas rodeo, in a policeman’s badge, in the sound of laughing children, in a political rally, in a newspaper. ...

Mill on Freedom

Feb 1, 2025

“The only freedom which deserves the name is that of pursuing our own good in our own way, so long as we do not attempt to deprive others of theirs, or impede their efforts to obtain it. Each is the proper guardian of his own health, whether bodily, or mental and spiritual.

The Constitution of Liberty: Hayek's Lessons for Today and Tomorrow

Dec 4, 2025

Socialists Blame Capitalism for Everything, Especially When a Disaster is the Fault of Socialism

Dec 3, 2025

The idea that politicians are supposed to provide solutions to problems is usually stupid, because politicians are not magicians. They can't do things any better than people who actually create wealth. They don't create wealth, they just redistribute it. We shouldn't think of the state as a very generous uncle who only thinks about us. A very good English translation of an interview with Kristina Votrubova in the publication Postroj. Conducted November 27, 2025.
