When Rights Become Restrictions. Freedom is Slavery.

“Rights” in the American Constitutional sense are negative rights. Congress shall not do this or do that. You have a right to speak freely, but you don’t have a right to speak freely on another’s dime. You have the right to publish what you wish to express, but you don’t have a right to have [...]

The Trouble with the Public Option

The President speaks of the “Public Option” as simply another choice for consumers.  He says it’s also just additional competition for the existing health insurance industry and will help “keep them honest”.  He is right that it would, possibly, provide another choice, in a way.  It will be available for those who don’t have insurance [...]
