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.

More Lies And Damned Lies From The White House

“Mrs. Obama has never made any public statements about same-sex marriage."

So says Kristina Schake, Mrs. Obama's communication director in an email to Politico.

Really?

On June 27, 2008 Michelle Obama spoke to the Democratic National Committee's Gay & Lesbian Leadership Council in New York City. In this speech Mrs. Obama clearly and plainly discusses same-sex marriage in the context of "the world as it should be."

In case you don't believe me, there is a YouTube video of the speech posted here.

Watch the speech. See for yourself.

Just how stupid does this White House think we are?

The white House is not speaking to you, they are speaking to 53% of the population that are somewhere in the abyss from where you are standing.
