“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil.

Why I am a Libertarian

The Pointless Divide Danger & Play posted a brief but very good take on why he is neither a liberal nor a conservative: Big Government: Liberals say, “We need a strong social services program since I am afraid of losing my job and being unable to support myself.”...

Asians and Freedom

Normally, I delete anonymous comments out of hand. I do make exceptions once in a while- and let me reiterate, once more, that I do NOT want anonymous commentary on this blog. If you have something to say, do so under a name to which I can respond. I don’t care...

Can’t say I’m even slightly surprised that NHS hospitals are turning out to be places you go to die, not places you go to get better: More than 3,000 patients have died ‘unexpectedly’ in just five NHS trusts in the past two years. The five are among nearly...

We mean it this time! We really do!
