Capitalism is only a communication system that relays information about realities that are always there

Socialism, Like Dracula, Rises Again from the Grave
by Richard M. Ebeling
Sometimes Dracula initially would be portrayed as an attractive gentleman, appealing to the ladies. But soon his true, evil nature showed itself as he fell upon his human prey and made them into “ungodly” creatures. Welcome to the seeming unending resurrection of the socialist idea in renewed appealing forms.
NO MATTER WHAT THE REBOOT OR REBRAND MAY IMPLY, DRACULA IS STILL A MONSTER AND "DEMOCRATIC" SOCIALISM IS STILL TYRANNY.
 

What It Means Politically to Imitate Jesus
by David Gornoski
In following Jesus, it is unethical to enter my neighbor's house with deadly force to force them to pay their employees better wages, use healthcare insurance plans I want funded, or stop using a drug.
INITIATING FORCE ONLY CREATES MORE VIOLENCE.
 

Don't Hate Market Signals. Use Them.
by Isaac M. Morehouse
Capitalism doesn't determine anything about what's valuable or valued. Capitalism is only a communication system that relays information about realities that are always there. Resources are scarce. People value different things. People want to satisfy their desires. Those are unavoidable realities under any system.
THERE'S NO CHEATING REALITY, YOU CAN ONLY MESS WITH THE SYSTEMS THAT COMMUNICATE IT.
 

Commerce Makes Life More Pleasant—Even in the Subway
by Ryan Ferguson
"In Taiwan, the subway stations are large and barren. There is nothing there. They feel cold and dead. You wind your way through a labyrinth to get to your train and see nothing but signs with rules and other people hustle to get out of the train station. It feels like they were created for a dystopian novel.
In Japan, the subway stations are alive. They are gigantic and to transfer trains you often have to walk a long way, but the whole time you are surrounded by business. Small vendors and small restaurants selling things to the crowds of people heading home. Even if you don’t need anything, it takes what would otherwise feel like a cold space and makes it warm and vibrant."
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE SUBWAYS IN TAIWAN AND JAPAN.
 

The Unpalatable Consequences of a Nationwide Carbon Tax
by Daniel J. Mitchell
A carbon tax would wind up being a gusher of money that would trigger an orgy of new spending in Washington.
MANY SENSIBLE VOICES ARE EXPLAINING THAT THERE’S NO ACCEPTABLE ARGUMENT FOR A CARBON TAX.
 

Seasteading and Health Care: Islands of Innovation
by Brittany Hunter
Health care pioneers are proving that medical care is not something that needs to be controlled by the state in order to benefit patients. But rather, real reform will come from the freedom to innovate and bring health care into the modern era. And seasteading provides the opportunity for a healthy future, where patients are in control of their care and free from government restraint.
INNOVATION IN HEALTH CARE IS WOEFULLY LACKING AND GOVERNMENT RED TAPE IS LARGELY TO BLAME, BUT SEASTEADING JUST MIGHT BE A WAY TO CIRCUMVENT BUREAUCRACY WITHOUT SACRIFICING QUALITY.
 

José Joaquin de Olmedo: Ecuador's Great Abolitionist and Classical Liberal
by Juan Carlos Maldonado
This remarkable young man urged regard for Indians as equals, not only in the human-created structure of laws but also more fundamentally in the way we think of all peoples within Creation.
HE WAS INCREASINGLY INCLINED TOWARD INDEPENDENCE FOR THE SPANISH COLONIES IN THE AMERICAS AND AGAINST THE TYRANNICAL PRACTICES OF THE KING OF SPAIN, FERDINAND VII.
 

American Manufacturing Is Alive and Well
by Mark J. Perry
For the US, despite all of the negative news we hear about the supposed de-industrialization of America, the hollowing out of US manufacturing, and claims that we “don’t make anything here anymore,” the fact that the US set new records for manufacturing output for the last three quarters runs counter to those negative narratives of gloom and doom about American manufacturing.
NAYSAYERS MAY CLAIM THAT MANUFACTURING IN THE US IS GOING EXTINCT, BUT THEY COULDN'T BE MORE WRONG.
