Statist tyranny writ large: “The right of a government to appropriate private property for public use, usually with compensation to the owner.”
UPDATE 3/30/20: Or try Merry Olde England, the land of Shakespeare, Churchill, the Magna Carta, the National Trust, the Union Jack, QEII, Downton Abbey, Ealing Studio comedies, magnificent gardens….and Orwell. ORIGINAL POST 3/29/20: If one wants a taste of the dystopian society promised by Green New Deals and Medicare For All, try China. And,...

The siren song of “Democratic Socialism” is repeatedly accompanied by the ignorant notion that “It Works!” in the reputed earthly paradises of Scandinavia. An honest examination and sober testimony from those who live it say otherwise. See for yourself in Johan Norberg’s documentary on his native Sweden…and learn some fascinating history including the name...

As Trump’s low tax/limited regulation/free market capitalist economy surges and record numbers of Americans (especially minorities) are working, the Left finds itself seriously short of voters interested in being serfs on the Progressive Plantation. After all, if a growing majority of Americans of all colors and backgrounds and economic levels are owning their lives,...

Quite the week, here, in Israel and in the UK.

If there is one central, unifying element of Leftist thinking, it is “master planning,” control. Rather than a society of free, independent individuals protected from one another’s follies by a few basic, commonsensical laws, the Leftist craves the control of a Top Down, centralized, societal blueprint. They know better how to create a “fair...

In a very long, wide-ranging conversation, New York Jewish Liberal David Samuels and California Catholic Conservative Angelo Codevilla engage in the ultimate bull session about American politics and the perks & perils of American power. Through it all runs Codevilla’s recurring (and convincing) worldview of an insatiably power-hungry Elite that exists solely to control...

Is the time far off when the majority of American Jews change course and fully embrace America (and Israel) in all the rich variety and freedom it has bestowed upon them and to which they have contributed a disproportionate share here and worldwide?
