“Going There”

Posted on December 17, 2009 by D3 Support

Even though I disagree with so many people, my attitude is not one of, “Never discuss philosophy or politics.” Instead my attitude is one of, “If you want to go there — I’ll go there.” I’m not afraid to acknowledge … Continue reading →

On the Precipice

Posted on December 16, 2009 by D3 Support

Free-market economist Ludwig von Mises wrote: “With a few exceptions contemporary commentators on economic problems are advocating economic intervention.

The Premise Behind the Gloomy Gus

Posted on December 15, 2009 by D3 Support

Posted on December 14, 2009 by D3 Support

No Such Thing

Posted on December 13, 2009 by D3 Support

When the Wrong are Confident

Posted on December 10, 2009 by D3 Support

Drivng the Marketplace Out of the Market

Posted on December 9, 2009 by D3 Support

I have two more fallacies for you regarding the push for socialized medicine. First, when politicians speak of “controlling costs” they are not talking about the cost of health insurance. These are the costs that concern those who purchase health … Continue reading →

Greatness and Excellence

Posted on December 8, 2009 by D3 Support

Freedom and Happiness

Posted on December 7, 2009 by D3 Support

Being free doesn’t make you happy. But freedom is necessary for happiness. People who are indifferent to freedom are not happy in the first place. People who don’t have freedom, but want it, can attain happiness in the fight for … Continue reading →

Voice of the Parasite

Posted on December 6, 2009 by D3 Support
