Universities are supposed to be places of higher learning, where people can exchange ideas and opinions and seek truth.
But University of South Alabama student David Meredith is learning a different lesson about college. After the election of 2016, he received an e-mail from the USA Community Director Dylan Lloyd that he was prohibited from displaying a “Trump-Pence” sign in his dormitory window…
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT): a venerated hall of higher learning from which some of the greatest achievers of the past century have emerged, including physicist Richard Feynman, mathematician Gilbert Strang, founder of the band Boston, Tom Sholz, the exciting bureaucrat and former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan, and Oliver Smoot (the man who laid on the sidewalk of the…
Decades ago, evil scientists working in a dark, dank lair devised one of the most powerful weapons to destroy the prospects for low-skilled people who want to improve their conditions by entering the workforce for experience and skills: the so-called “minimum wage” law.
The latest high profile locale to step into its own mental dung is San Diego County, Calif., and a new piece by Dan McSwain for…
In June of last year, I noted that despite being unfairly labeled xenophobic and racist for wanting Britain out of the toxically bureaucratic European Union, the supporters of Brexit won the referendum on the issue mainly because millions of Brits were sick of the top-down, nanny-state mentality of the bankrupt Brussels-based EU government.
It appears that the politicians in Brussels haven’t…
In February, we reported that the city of San Francisco had a new “free college” plan for city residents that included an added stipend for books and travel expenses. We also noted that nothing was “free," and that taxpayers were going to be forced to pay for the whole she-bang.
Well, the heavy-hitting politicians in the state of New York couldn’t let San Fran be the only collectivist hodgepodge…
Ideological opponents of many Obama administration domestic policies breathed sighs of relief when Donald Trump beat Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election, but their relief probably wasn't as strong as that of American kids who eat school lunches.
At the moment of its implementation in 2011, Michelle Obama’s revamped federal school lunch program was an unmitigated disaster, seeing kids toss…
South Carolina is known as the home of Fort Sumter, the place where the first shots were fired in the Civil War. So perhaps it’s fitting that a student at one of the state’s most famous universities should fire a warning shot about the absurd political correctness erupting in the school administration.
The site is Clemson University, which reportedly planned last year to push its professors…
London is well known as one of the greatest cities in the world. Hosting visitors from every corner of the globe, its ancient streets, history, and architecture are backdrops to the busy lives of a population that numbers over 7 million and speaks more than 300 languages. It is a welcoming place, inviting anyone interested in peaceful interaction...
Unless those people happen to be driving…
As if reciting a mantra, socialists tell people that their political philosophy is “for the people."
Yet, just as every collectivist state on Earth has ended up being “for” some people at the expense of the vast majority, productivity has tanked, livelihoods, medicine, and education have suffered, and, in the end (and often in the beginning), blood has been spilled in order to allow for the…
New Jersey has an undeserved reputation as a cesspool of urban decay, a politically corrupt, bureaucratic dystopian nightmare trapped in a forest of smelly Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian smokestacks and drowning under the weight of its political icons’ bad decisions. In many ways, it is seen as the ugly stepchild of the already ugly New York City -- a place where many of New York’s worst…
