The Danger of “Total Liberty”

Unknown at The Conservative Socrates - 37 minutes ago
Liberty is a good thing, but the demand for total liberty is a conspiracy to push society into nihilism and lawlessness which are usually a prelude to the establishment of a new tyranny. Those who become part of movements which demand total liberty miss one essential feature of liberty: the concept characterizes freedom within the limits of not only human psychology and human body but also the good cultural and political traditions; it does not characterize freedom from everything. No man can ever be so free that he is free of his mental capacities, skills, just obligations, gende... more »

They were too complex to mass produce in the late 1940s, and by 1945, American and British bombers had pretty much devastated every German and Japanese city worth bombing. The secret of American victory in World War II was quantity and quality.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Favorite Economic Theory (Big Spending) is Being Put to the Test

As a result, the federal government deficit for this fiscal year will be far greater than any since World War II.

Desperate House Republicans Are Spending Millions To Defend Vulnerable Incumbents, Money They Planned To Use To Attack Democrats

What does the world mean to you if you can’t trust it to go on shining when you’re not there? And there’s a tree, long-fallen; once the bees flew to it, like a procession of messengers, and filled it with honey.

*Vanity Fair*'s Gabriel Sherman reports: Donald Trump didn’t expect Joe Biden to pick Kamala Harris as his running mate. “He thought Biden would choose Karen Bass,” a Republican briefed on Trump’s thinking said. Trump’s view, according to sources close to the White House, was that Biden would prefer a candidate with Bass’s low national profile and one who wouldn’t outshine him. In other words, Trump thought Biden would pick a female Mike Pence -- a groveling helpmeet who stays silent in the Master's presence except when it's time to shower His Lordship with obsequious praise.
