    One way Rand can appeal to women: child care costs

    One of the most common complaints I hear women make is that the cost of childcare is ridiculously expensive. I personally am aware of a few mothers who calculated that if they were to head back to work after having a child, daycare costs would eat up 80-90% of the salary. Daycare is a heavily...

    Jennifer Rubin on the Washington post

    What the fuck is this woman's deal? Nearly every single one of her pieces is an attack against Rand. What the hell did he ever do to her, and why is she so obsessed with him?

    What book is a good introduction to Austrian thought?

    I don't think I am ready for anything challenging and dense. It's not really Austrian, but I have recently read the law, Road to serfdom, and economics in 1 lesson.

    Do y'all remember the "USA is 37th in healthcare " statistic? It's straight up nonsense

    Do y'all remember the "USA is 37th in healthcare " statistic? It's straight up nonsense Why? Because it was one of the most blatantly Socialist documents ever produced by a UN based group . . . and that is saying quite a bit! So these 5 criterion put together by a Malignant Norwegian...

    A question regarding economic calculation in the Soviet Union

    or rather, what the gosplan (central planners) substituted for economic calculation. If a state-grocery store, for example, was not selling any inventory, would they close it? In a free society, the losses incurred would motivate the owners to close shop, but since there were no "losses" in the...

    Rand Paul Proposes Measure To Shield State Medical Marijuana Laws From Feds

    This is great for connecting with young people, and it also meshes well with the current growing acceptance of Marijuana. Rand Paul's "live and let live" style is clearly showing, and even economic statists are attracted to the social side of it. If he keeps these views on such important issues...

    Why is it that government almost always escapes financial collapses unscathed?

    I think the opposite. The government is more capable than ever at twisting collapses into a need for more power. And now the American populace is largely on its side.

    Why is it that government almost always escapes financial collapses unscathed?

    and the blame almost entirely falls on "the free market". The federal reserve and federal policies were immune to blame in regards to the great depression, and anger at "capitlaism" set off nearly four decades of statist bullshit legislation. The 2008 collapse, again, was blamed on "the free...

    Rand Paul to GOP: Our voter ID push is “offending people”

    Rand Paul is either a genius politician or a politician willing to give the middle finger to his party. The latter is what I like about him, assuming the former is not true.
