** THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
------------------------------------------------------------

Capitalism is the social system based on individual rights. The term capitalism is used here in the broader philosophical, political sense (social system), and not in the narrower economic sense (market economy).

Capitalism is not just an economic system (the free-market) that can be grafted onto any political structure. Capitalism is an integrated system with specific dependencies. The economy of capitalism — the free market — depends on a specific legal (objective law), political (individual rights), and ethical (rational self-interest) foundation. It is these dependencies that make individuals free not only in their economic affairs, but in their personal affairs as well.

** The Coronavirus and Anti-Gouging Laws ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------

** Liberals Should Reject Welfare Statism ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------

** What 1619 Project’s Critics Get Wrong about Lincoln ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
By Phillip W. Magness

While Lincoln’s colonization remarks grate the modern ear, and evince a patronizing paternalism toward the program’s intended participants, they also reflect the sincerity of his anti-slavery beliefs and an accompanying recognition that white-supremacist violence would not end with the formal abolition of the institution.




** Capitalism and Free Markets Can Save Nature For Humankind ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
By Joakim Book

Instead of succumbing to the eternal alarmism that should undermine ecologists’ credibility, we should accept that maybe – just maybe – the world is getting better. And much-reviled capitalist markets are, in no small feat, to thank for that.




** Another African Tragedy ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
By Walter Williams

Africa's locust plague is man-made.




** Forbidden Parenting ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
By John Stossel

Some parents are so neglectful that government should intervene, but not by "telling us every little detail how to raise our children."




** Licensing vs. Freedom of Compeition ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
By Veronique de Rugy

Licensing requirements generally restrict the supply of services in the licensed industry by prohibiting some perfectly competent workers from working as providers.




** Cuban Education Under Castro: Literate for Indoctrination ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
