    https://selwynduke.typepad.com/files/ap-why-the-government-wont-take-the-tarp-money-back-4-7-09.wma — The government’s goal isn’t the creation of a new economic system but the resurrection of a very, very old one. In fact, it’s one of the oldest institutions of man.

    By Selwyn Duke On the heels of the Vermont legislature’s passing of a same-sex "marriage" bill last Thursday came additional shocking news a day later, with the Iowa Supreme Court ruling unanimously to overturn its state’s ban on same-sex "marriage."

  • Guest Piece: Finance Capitalists and Scapegoats

    By Bruce Walker The doctored outrage at AIG executives raises one of the ugliest specters in modern political history:  mindless fury directed at “Finance Capitalism.”  The profits of men who create goods and services is easy to defend.  Bill Gates gave us Windows.  T.
