People Love To Criticize Capitalism; Here’s Why They’re Wrong

June 16, 2021June 16, 2021 John Stossel

Free markets increase total wealth. Competition encourages entrepreneurs to find new ways to release more value from both people and resources. Because capitalism is voluntary and consumers have choices, the only way capitalists can get rich is to offer us something that we believe is better than we had before. That creates new wealth.

What the State Really Is

June 4, 2021June 4, 2021 Sheldon Richman

To better understand the nature of government, one can think of it as an agency that sells or, more precisely, rents power to others. The greater the power and the wider its scope, the more opportunities the state’s agents will have to sell access to it in return for favors.

About that “Real Estate Dispute” in Sheikh Jarrah

May 28, 2021May 28, 2021 Sheldon Richman

When the Israeli government describes the conflict over the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood of East Jerusalem as just a “real-estate dispute,” it has a point.

Two Grown-Up Homeschoolers Explain How Alternative Education Helped Them Get Ahead

Rumors of Cryptocurrency’s Death Are Still Greatly Exaggerated

May 18, 2021May 18, 2021 Thomas L. Knapp

Elon Musk is a man of many skills. He didn’t just make electric cars sexy, he sent one to space. Perhaps chief among his talents is the ability to roil markets by running his mouth. Lately, he’s aimed that talent at cryptocurrency.

Corporations Are Getting Rich Off Government Aid

May 13, 2021May 13, 2021 John Stossel

Congress passed the $2.2 trillion HEROES Act. House Democrats said it gives money to “governments who desperately need funds.” But it also gives lots of money to people who don’t need funds.

Harvard Prof Asks Biden to ‘Reform our Current Homeschooling Regime’; Here’s the Problem With Her Proposal

May 12, 2021May 12, 2021 Kerry McDonald

Nearly one year to the day after the original Harvard Magazine article appeared, a new Harvard piece profiled Professor Bartholet. Her opinions remain unchanged. If anything, she has doubled down on her belief that the government must be heavily involved in child rearing and education.

Why I am excited about Mars

May 12, 2021May 12, 2021 Ian Mayes

In recent years I have been becoming increasingly interested in and excited about the prospect of people exploring and colonizing the planet Mars. A friend asked me recently about what I find so compelling about this idea, and I thought that I’d elaborate some on it here.

A Refreshing Way to Think about Immigration

May 7, 2021May 7, 2021 Sheldon Richman

What I’m going to say about Chandran Kukathas’s latest book, Immigration and Freedom, does not constitute a book review. Think of it instead as a book alert. Even having read only the preface and a couple of chapters, I am confident it is a book that fans of liberty will be interested in. You can tell by the title.

Bust the Conservative “Trust Busters”

April 30, 2021April 30, 2021 Sheldon Richman

When right-wing leader Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) recently declared that “liberty and monopoly do not go together,” I fantasized that he had become a free-market anarchist.
