Free kibbles

ECONOMY:

The establishment is demonizing hoarding, which could well be called saving or investing. This is part of a campaign to convince people to spend and consume instead of saving.

EDUCATION:

Here's another example of a conflict that couldn't happen without government. This couldn't happen in a free society. In a free society, these people would educate their children as they see fit. Nobody could force them to do otherwise. And if child services should be called every time a parent forces a child to do something against the child's will, they'd be at every home every day.

GLOBAL WARMING AND ENERGY:

Jerry Brown continues pushing people out of California.

New continuing resolution cuts all funding for NOAA's climate boondoggle. Wow. Even a blind dog can tree a coon once in a while.

POLICE STATE:

Libertarian reforms for the justice system.

WAR:

I don't think that listing a handful of crimes committed by US soldiers in any way makes a case against wars of aggression. That would be like listing a handful of murders committed by free people and using that to make a case against freedom. The case against wars of aggression is the systematic killing of people who never did anything to us and the consequences that follow.

POLITICS:

Trump panders to the Christian right. It's looking more and more like he's running for real.

MEDIA:

Thriving, free internet news site reports on the damage done to the New York Times by erecting a pay wall.


MISC:


Ninth Circuit rejects endless lawsuits against Facebook. This quote says it all:

""The Winklevosses are not the first parties bested by a competitor who then seek to gain through litigation what they were unable to achieve in the marketplace," three Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals judges said in a ruling."At some point, litigation must come to an end," the judges continued. "That point has now been reached.""

Zuckerburg made them multi-millionaires. If they really have any ability in the marketplace, that's more than enough seed money to make billions. Go earn something.

New image of Yellowstone super-volcano suggests the plume that builds to eruption is worse than previously thought.
