Have you ever noticed that when someone says that a government service or program is for the common good, it is rarely good for you or your family? In most cases, you end up footing the bill for someone else's benefit. There are thousands of examples. Listed below are some of them. - Millions of taxpayers pay for a light-rail system that they will never use, because it is supposedly for the common good. - Tourists pay a special stadium tax on rental cars and hotel rooms for stadiums that they will never use, because it is supposedly for the...

Cantoni writes: In the early 1970s, I risked my fledging business career to fight for the idea of equal rights and against racial discrimination. Today, I fight against the idea of equal outcomes and the racial preferences required to make them a reality. Have I become a racist? Thirty-one years ago, I implemented affirmative action programs to encourage blacks to apply for positions that had been closed to them. Today, I fight racial quotas that masquerade as affirmative action. Have I become a racist? Back then, when I was a young supervisor for a multinational insurance company, I went around...

Washington, DC – Underscoring his long-standing commitment to free trade, U.S. Senator John McCain (R-AZ) today made the case for supporting passage of Trade Promotion Authority and the Andean Trade Bill, H.R. 3009, which would benefit American workers and consumers through reduced prices on goods and services. His floor statement follows: “As we prepare to vote on this historic trade package, our country is precariously positioned in the international trade arena. Many of our friends and allies no longer see the United States as a nation that champions global free trade, but rather as a nation that increasingly fears foreign...

An international report released on July 2 reiterated the key role democracy plays in improving the quality of life for people trapped in poverty in the Middle East. The document stated that "the wave of democracy that transformed governance in most of Latin America and East Asia in the 1980's and early 1990's has barely reached the Arab states. This freedom deficit undermines human development." It noted the lack of opportunity for Arab women, the lack of a voice for intellectuals who might disagree with the government, the failure to institute a free press, and a dearth of political rights...

A professional journalist on the staff of a Gannett newspaper must be as disillusioned, discouraged and demoralized as an ethical accountant on the staff of WorldCom. Like the accountant, the journalist finds it difficult to uphold professional standards of accuracy, honesty and thoroughness. The largest newspaper in the Gannett empire next to USA Today is the Arizona Republic, with a Sunday circulation of over 400,000. Like most Gannett newspapers and an increasing number of non-Gannett papers, it has adopted the comic book appearance and juvenile writing level of USA Today on its news pages. A case can be made that...

Has any body heard the McCain / Napolitano Clean Elections song? For those who don't know, Arizona has a socialist campaign system endorsed by Arizona's left leaning senior snowy-haired Senator. Basically it uses taxpayer dollars to fund every qualifying political campaign. Which means that if you’re a conservative, you’re paying for BIG GOVERNMENT LIBERALS to run commercials saying you starve school kids. And this is what John McCain considers CLEAN! Anyway, we take a pretty good swipe at McCain & former Clinton administration alum / gubernatorial candidate Janet Napolitano (aka Janet NapoliReno) in this song. It might only be funny...

7-11-02 McCain's Speech on Corporate Governance Reform By: Senator John McCain July 11, 2002 National Press Club Patriotism in this country is not nor should it ever be merely a sentimental attachment to blood and soil. Our love of country is a love of ideals. The values of freedom inspire our patriotism: government derived from the consent of the governed; an economic system that is an open market for creativity, innovation, competition, and self-improvement. -MORE- (I would have loved to post the rest, but each line needed to be reformated and it's a very long speech)

By: Ayn Rand Institute IRVINE, CA--“The recent problems at WorldCom and Enron are being used by anti-capitalists to impose more crippling regulations on innocent businessmen,” said Dr. Onkar Ghate, resident fellow at the Ayn Rand Institute. “The only laws needed to deal with actual corporate wrongdoing,” Dr. Ghate said, “already exist, namely, laws against breach of contract and fraud. But the anti-capitalists are not demanding that existing laws be applied against individuals who may have committed fraud. They are clamoring that the SEC and other government agencies be granted even more power to dictate to all businessmen--most of whom are...

Washington, DC – U.S. Senator John McCain (R-AZ) today continued his fight against corporate corruption in the marketplace by supporting the “Corporate and Criminal Fraud Accountability Act of 2002" sponsored by Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-VT). His floor statement follows: “Our publicly owned companies are an essential component to the economic health of our country.
