‘Most organizations’ are racist, Ibram Kendi says at webinar hosted by Stanford University

By ASHLEY CARNAHAN – UC BERKELEY •NOVEMBER 3, 2020 – for The College Fix My cmnt: This professor of anti-racism needs to speak out strongly against the obviously racist NBA. It has manifestly egregious racial disparity and has had for decades. Until the NBA has the number of white players in proportion to their demographic representation in the country it is continuing to promote racism. Boston University Professor Ibram Kendi recently spoke on a webinar at Stanford University where he declared “most organizations and institutions are racist.” It came in response to a question by the webinar’s host who asked Kendi … Continue reading ‘Most organizations’ are racist, Ibram Kendi says at webinar hosted by Stanford University

Lying with a Straight Face

Cal Thomas | Posted: Jun 29, 2021 12:01 AM – for Townhall.com My cmnt: Politicians used to have to be at least a little clever in their lies, usually throwing in some half-truths to throw off the unwary. The press used to have a modicum of conscience and at least some ethical standards to call out baldfaced lies. Now the press, et al. have moved to simply being an organ of the democratic party. Placing democrats into power and keeping them there is the overriding goal. Lying by commission and omission is now standard practice.

Defending Capitalism: Part I

Posted on June 16, 2021 by Dan Mitchell – for The Center for Freedom and Prosperity I was a big fan of (and occasional guest on) John Stossel’s TV show, and I’m now a big fan of his videos (see here, here, here, here, here, here, and here). So it was an honor to appear in his latest video about “Capitalism Myths.” It’s a two-part series. In this first video, we discussed three myths about free enterprise. Myth #1 – Capitalists get rich by ‘taking’ money from others. Since voluntary exchange, by definition, is mutually beneficial, this is a truly absurd argument. Indeed, only the most vapid politicians and pundits suggest … Continue reading Defending Capitalism: Part I

Proponents of government intervention often claim that greedy capitalists will skimp on safety in order to get more profits. To support their argument, they cite data on how workplace deaths have declined since the Occupational Safety and Health Administration … Continue reading Defending Captialism: Part II

Capitalism Makes Us Better Off

John Stossel | Posted: Jun 23, 2021 12:01 AM – for Townhall.com Last week, I debunked three myths about capitalism. Here are four more: Myth No. 4: Capitalism creates unsafe workspaces. “Greedy capitalists” will risk workers’ lives to increase production if government, through agencies such as the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, or OSHA, doesn’t stop that. It’s logical to assume that government regulation saves lives. Workplace deaths dropped after the OSHA was created. Government officials like showing a graph of the decline. But if you bother to also look at data from (SET ITAL)before(END ITAL) the OSHA’s creation, you … Continue reading Capitalism Makes Us Better Off

What Was the Cold War?

The decades-long “Cold War” (1947-1989) between the United States and the Soviet Union was so named because the two global powers never came to direct blows. Yet, the war was not without its victims.

5 Arguments Against ‘America Is a Racist Country’

Dennis Prager|Posted: Jul 14, 2020 12:01 AM for Townhall.com The left-wing charge that America is a racist country is the greatest national libel since the Blood Libel against the Jews. America is, in fact, the least racist, multiracial, multiethnic country in world history. Neither the claim that America is a racist society nor the claim that it is the least racist country can be empirically proven. Both are assessments. But honest people do need to provide arguments for their position. I have found every argument that America is racist, let alone “systemically” racist, wanting.
