About This Blog

Ludwig von Mises (1881-1973) was the greatest economist of my time. His greatest works can be accessed here at no charge.

Mises believed that property, freedom and peace are and should be the hallmarks of a satisfying and prosperous society. I agree. Mises proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that the prospect for general and individual prosperity is maximized, indeed, is only possible, if the principle of private property reigns supreme. What's yours is yours. What's mine is mine. When the line between yours and mine is smudged, the door to conflict opens. Without freedom (individual liberty of action) the principle of private property is neutered and the free market, which is the child of property and freedom and the mother of prosperity and satisfaction, cannot exist. Peace is the goal of a prosperous and satisfying society of free individuals, not peace which is purchased by submission to the enemies of property and freedom, but peace which results from the unyielding defense of these principles against all who challenge them.

In this blog I measure American society against the metrics of property, freedom and peace.

PAY THE MAN, BITCHES!!!

Upon the news that the US Supreme Court upheld ObamaCare and it's individual mandate, Patrick Gaspard, the Executive Director of the Democratic National Committee, tweeted: "it's constitutional. Bitches."

The word "bitch" has several definitions. But I think I know in which sense Gaspard was using the word (from Dictionary.com):

4. Slang . a person who performs demeaning tasks for another; servant: Tom is so her bitch; she just ordered him to go fetch her some pizza—and he went without a word.
Mr. Gaspard is right, of course. Individual Americans have just been bitch-slapped by the US Supreme Court, Mr. Gaspard and his ilk. The Democrats and progressives in this country truly believe that YOU are now officially their bitch.

In short, you are the left's official sugar-daddy without the advantage of being independently wealthy. From now on whatever the progressive, socialist parasites in Washington want and demand, YOU their BITCH must fetch, then pay for it. Nancy Pelosi wants more food stamps, no problem. Harry Reid wants more free college education, yo! Barbara Boxer wants paid maternity leave for her minions, no matter! Bend over, bitches. And you had better smile and say thank you "ma'am" while you're servicing them.

Think about that as you drive to work tomorrow, bitches!
