  1. So, You Want Canadian Health Care?: https://www.nationalreview.com/2019/08/democratic-candidates-health-care-plans-canadian-system/ No rational, principled individual in the United State of America would want the Canadian system.
  2. More government mandated minimum wage fallout: Robots Ready to Scoop Ice Cream Jobs: https://mises.org/wire/robots-ready-scoop-ice-cream-jobs As an aside several months ago my employer installed one of those Reis & Irvy’s soft serve kiosks in one of their cafeterias. It has been broken down more than it has been working.
  3. Neighborhood Activists Would Rather Preserve Tom's Diner Than Let Its Owner Retire in Peace: https://reason.com/2019/08/01/neighborhood-activists-would-rather-preserve-toms-diner-than-let-its-owner-retire-in-peace/#comments So none of us really own our property? Is this a principle that our country was founded on? If the activists are so hell bent on preserving Mr. Messina's property they should pay him fair market value for it and then find someone else to manage the business. $4.8 millions sounds about right.
  4. https://www.brookings.edu/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/THP_KleinerDiscPaper_final.pdf People who insist on official assurances that their barber isn't lethally incompetent might take heart from a Brookings proposal that voluntary certification of professional skills could replace licensing. Those who want to see a piece of paper could go to certified providers. The rest of us could take our chances with businesses we trust through experience and reputation. Personal responsibility in the marketplace. Imagine that!
  5. https://mises.org/wire/united-states-not-nation-problem-national-conservatism Fantastic essay. Agree on all of Mr. Mendenhall's points.

  6. Forget Paying for Medicare for All—We Can't Pay for the Medicare We Have: https://reason.com/2019/02/22/medicare-for-all-cost-m4a-debt-bernie/ They want to make it worse because they can still kick the can down the road, to our children and grandchildren. They won't be in politics anymore when the day of reckoning finally comes.
  7. Not really. There are now competing studies out there, each with probably it's own biases. Which one to believe is up to the individual. And of course this study hedges it's bets to a degree: FTS:
  8. A form of yes. But as Irishman state enrollment is still the primary classification system. And it should not be.
  9. Update. The Gathering starts today: https://www.indystar.com/story/news/local/2019/07/31/juggalos-gathering-indiana-heres-what-you-should-know/1864770001/
  10. A true system of promotion and relegation could work wonders and stop many enrollment-based arguments.
  11. ITG words coming from somebody supposedly hiding almost 2000 miles away in Nevada.
  12. So are saying that HRC is going to throw her hat into the ring for 2020, eventually?
  13. Any principled person who truly values personal freedom and responsibility would choose #2.
  14. Democrats Forget the Flint Water Crisis Was Caused By a Bold New Infrastructure Plan: https://reason.com/2019/07/30/flint-water-crisis-democrat-debate-infrastructure/
  15. Most Democratic candidates are to the left not just of Americans but of their own party.: https://reason.com/2019/07/30/tonights-democratic-debate-will-be-long-on-personal-attacks-and-increased-government/
  16. Yes. If you believe presidential elections are nothing but horse races. Which most individuals who continue to vote for uni-party candidates do.
  17. ? You appear to be the corporate shill with a link like that. Nice try.
  18. https://mises.org/wire/if-i-were-corporate-shill… Agreed. I am no corporate shill.
  19. With my father it was him taking off his leather belt and snapping it. All the warning myself and my siblings needed to fall in line.
  20. Just finished binge watching the first season on the new series The Boys on Amazon Prime video. Really enjoyed it, the setting and story is an interesting twist on your generic superhero tropes. It is based on a comic books series of the same name first published in 2006. May try and track the comics down as well. Highly recommended.
