I'm so old that I can remember when most of the people promoting race hate were white.

Subsidies are a shell game, not a net addition to national wealth.

Capitalism knows only one color: that color is green; all else is necessarily subservient to it, hence, race, gender and ethnicity cannot be considered within it.

The march of science and technology does not imply growing intellectual complexity in the lives of most people. It often means the opposite.

The difference is that we have the hardest and most painful evidence that there was a Holocaust.

High tax rates in the upper income brackets allow politicians to win votes with class warfare rhetoric, painting their opponents as defenders of the rich. Meanwhile, the same politicians can win donations from the rich by creating tax loopholes that can keep the rich from actually paying those higher tax rates - or perhaps any taxes at all. What is worse than class warfare is phony class warfare. Slippery talk about 'fairness' is at the heart of this fraud by politicians seeking to squander more of the nation's resources.
