Paul Mason, Socialism Incarnate

Posted on by Dave Blount

The nice thing about socialism is that no individual is responsible for his own behavior. That means that if you screw yourself up, it’s society’s fault — and you can sue taxpayers: A man who once weighed nearly 70 stone [980 pounds] is to launch legal action against the NHS [Britain’s socialized medicine monolith], claiming […]

Obama’s Labor Dept. to Force Employers to tell Employees They Have a Right to Unionize

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Obama’s intrusive National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), the government regulatory agency responsible for making rules to govern the relationship between employer and employee, has decided that as an employee you are stupid.

Posted on by Dave Blount

You’re not likely to make $152 million at your job, no matter how hard you work. The real money isn’t in creating wealth, it’s in expropriating it from those who do. For example: The son of a Roxbury (Massachusetts) woman who died from lung cancer said today he wished his mother was still alive — […]

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

I was a guest on Cameron Gray’s National Rifle Association radio program “Cam and Company” last night.

Charlie Rangel Decides To Waste Our Money Instead of Stealing It

Posted on by Jeff Dunetz

Charlie Rangel has decided to change his tactics.:  Usually he finds a way to steal tax payer money, like giving earmarks to a school named in his honor, or neglecting to pay his taxes, or live in four rent-controlled apartments even though based on his income he probably doesn’t even warrant one. Today different, today […]

 

Judge not lest ye be judged

People who know me in person also know that nothing is more likely to send my blood pressure spiking than talk about judges. (To any of my readers who are in fact judges, I’m sure you’re the exception to anything nasty I might be about to say about judges.) I dislike judges, something that is […]

Black Judge Denounces Plea Deals for “White Boys”

Posted on by Dave Blount

By putting skin color before character and qualifications to elevate blacks to positions of authority they probably would not otherwise occupy, we have at last created a color-free America, gloriously united under the benevolent smirk of our post-racial Affirmative Action president. Here‘s how post-racialism manifests itself in the legal system: A black judge [Joseph Williams] […]

 

Lawyer Swarm Devours British Schools

If misery loves company, we ought to be happy that at least we aren’t the only society getting bled to the point of anemia by useless yet voraciously greedy trial lawyers.
