Free Speech and Corporations

Free Speech and Corporations

I’m amazed by the hysteria emerging from the Left on the Supreme Court decision this week, recognizing the unconstitutionality of restrictions on free speech imposed by McCain Feingold.
There are lots of problems with corporations as legal entities in our society. In my estimation, they all stem from the limited liability that a corporation enjoys, which [...]

Goldman Sachs: Pigs at the Trough

Goldman Sachs: Pigs at the Trough

Goldman announces record profits in an economy that has been crushed and now lies bleeding, half dead, gasping for breath. Setting aside the government interventions that made this possible, this would raise some eyebrows, even if they weren’t in a government protected monopoly? I mean how can they possibly have record-breaking profits in this economy?
First, [...]

Scott Brown: Business as Usual

Scott Brown: Business as Usual

Like many political junkies, I followed the Brown/Coakley race with much interest. The crashing political support for the policies of the Collectivist-Utopians – wait, let’s stop right here for a moment, because that term isn’t just part of my polemic; it’s a much more accurate description of the social science of the left.

The triumphalism of the right-wing chattering classes over the Brown-Coakley race, exchanging knowing, insider comments about what this means for [...]

Bernanke asks “Somebody Stop me”!

Bernanke asks “Somebody Stop me”!

Bernanke gave a speech this morning in which he called for more regulation to prevent prevent ‘bubbles’ from occurring. He went on to say that he didn’t believe that the Fed’s monetary policies were the cause of the recent housing bubble. For those of you who have been keeping track of this, I imagine you [...]

Right Wing Cries Wolf on Interpol Order

Right Wing Cries Wolf on Interpol Order

I’ve seen the ranting on right-wing sites about Obama’s executive order granting immunities and privileges to Interpol. The line of thinking is this is just another step in subjugating the U.S. to international law, and that the “police officers” of the Interpol will be free to operate with impugnity, in the U.S. , out of [...]
