“Forgiving student debt” really means forcing people who didn’t go to college to pay for those who did. bit.ly/2v2biwV

John Hospers, the 1972 Libertarian Party nominee for president, was openly gay. He also earned an actual electoral college vote from Republican elector Roger MacBride of Virginia.
Whatever the final results show, @petebuttigieg has made #IowaCaucus history. He is the first openly gay candidate in American history to earn presidential primary delegates toward a major party's nomination process. desmoinesregister.com/story/…

Are you familiar with the unusual circumstances of the Fed’s origin?
What about how power was consolidated in DC and away from Reserve Banks under FDR, and how the Fed’s mandate again altered in 1977?

Does anyone actually believe that “planning,” “organizing,” or “running” an economy would be any less complex in ways both seen and unseen than counting and reporting a few hundred or thousand votes would be?

As more Gen Zers come of age, they would be wise to learn from the mistakes of millennials and think twice before borrowing money to pay for school. zpr.io/tKV8T

The "systemwide disaster" in Iowa is a foreshadowing of what happens to the whole American economy under the central planning that the Democrats propose.

Forgiving student debt punishes prudent, frugal choices while rewarding their opposite. zpr.io/tKWZa

Better takeaway: if you can’t run a little election (which is to say, count), how could you ever expect to plan, organize, and “run” a $20T, 300 million person economy?
The lack of clarity out of the Iowa caucuses may have thrown a lifeline to Joe Biden and delivered a blow to Bernie Sanders politico.com/news/2020/02/03…

Leftists: Yeah, the government is totally corrupt and I hate it.
Also leftists: I need the government to provide food, water, housing, a job, a partner, a car, etc.
PICK. ONE.

No, the Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility (DMU) is not about (and has nothing to do with) satiety. In fact, if your want for something becomes fully sated (meaning you have no further use(s) for it), then that something is no longer scarce and it is thus not an economic good.

Socialism and communism lead to underperforming economies and the loss of individual opportunity for generations. zpr.io/tKFXF

It doesn’t seem to occur to some of today’s young socialists that many older former socialists turned against it not because they “sold out” but because they realized they’d been sold a bill of goods. Knowing some history would help.

The most conspicuous problem with Trump's critics who correctly decry his authoritarian tendencies is that they want an even bigger and more powerful government ruling us all.

Dictators often hide their ambitions under mantras of "serving the people."
The reality is that the people are served death and destruction.
