Text of the page (random words):
problems of terrorism why fighting terrorism in israel makes the world whole a safer place how bureaucrats try to improve the free market every one seems to have one no government is complete these days without it s very own anti trust agency to protect the consumer from price fixing under pricing over pricing whatever you do is bound to be wrong anyway pricing to fix this imperfect market in this imperfect world to make sure there are no anti competitive business practices taking place anywhere any time why israel has much to be proud of israel is a beacon of western values capitalism and success smack in the middle of the middle east surrounded by neighbours for whom freedom is a foreign tongue by poverty ridden dictatorships who view israel s prosperity with a mixture of paranoid suspicion hate and envy israel does not allow itself to forget that eternal vigilance is the price of liberty wendell phillips they have paid a high price for it and they should be proud of what they have created and defended towards a positive vision for cuba what s wrong with communism in both theory and practice how it is an airtight guarantee of poverty and misery why capitalism free trade free speech individual rights etc is the only moral and practical solution for cuba living in israel today naomi ragen online from jerusalem at a time when innocent israelis are being murdered indiscriminately by arafat s suicide bombers as the media portrays these terrorists and their brutal leadership as heroes and condemns israel the freest most prosperous state in the middle east for seeking to defend herself what is it like living israel getting on a bus shopping at the local market eating in a restaurant china facts and face western appeasement is rewarding chinese aggression and oppression can trading with china lead to the spread of better ideas or will it end up arming and encouraging a force of destruction a brutal force aimed at both foreigners and chinese citizens china why it should lose the olympics the world s biggest dictatorship a country which has slaughtered more people than hitler is hostile to western values throws a tantrum if anyone suggests it may not be allowed to have taiwan all to itself but it gets handed hong kong and the olympic games so what gives china where is the language of liberty china has some deep problems as well as its communist and authoritarian traditions the chinese language lacks the words concepts necessary to grasp the ideas of liberty individualism free choice etc and the western concepts it has picked up are kantian and keynesian the worst of all worlds yet the west constantly appeases and even rewards china south korean culture concepts and capitalism does south korea have the foundations for capitalism individual rights the pursuit of happiness does it have the concepts which are the precondition of achieving freedom and prosperity cuban dissident ex communist ferdinando castro de lardiller online from cuba we know what the cuban oppositionists are against castro and communism but what are they fighting for and how does a dictator like castro stay in power in this illegal according to cuban law interview we speak with one of cuba s leading dissidents leon louw promoting free market principles in south africa and beyond contrary to what socialists and communists think when people are trading they re all blissfully happy buyers and sellers alike observed leon louw on his recent visit to melbourne australia the founder of the south african based free market foundation talks about the programs and activities his organization run to promote free market ideas and policies among other things find out about the young black communist who now works as a lecturer promoting the virtues of capitalism how does fantasy and adventure work in literature as humans we seem to be preoccupied with two seemingly opposed activities the first is to identify reality the second is to escape it through the use of fiction fantasy fairytales what is the role of fantasy in human life more capitalism means more and better art artists flourish in a capitalistic system says art historian professor lee sanstead so why are so many artists so hostile towards capitalism example after historic example is provided of the link between capitalism the system of the mind and artistic quality and quantity a chilling contrast is made with the artistic desolation of oppressive regimes such as modern afghanistan as well as the anti objectivity of post modernism listen now to this informative and uplifting affirmation of creative freedom and prosperity including some ground breaking insights by one of the world s foremost authorities on romantic realism how governments get away with seizing private property using the example of the brazilian government s threat to seize the patent to aids drug viracept we look at how governments get away with such breaches of property rights topics covered include the often used trick of declaring a state of emergency as an excuse to trample on rights the false dichotomy inherent in the put lives before profit slogan the contribution of altruism to the destruction of rights the fraud of claiming to help people whilst punishing the drug companies for their success the widespread notion that profits are bad should atlas go on strike the possible idea of micro strikes how companies are hampered from defending themselves by their shareholders structures and by their own short term mentalities a turn for de wurst the artist at work series sydney kendall is author of a turn for dewurst a thought provoking novel about a brilliant little girl who fights back against a teacher that is out to crush her mind and spirit it shows the importance of independence and of freedom of choice in education why is fiction so important the nature of the creative process homeschooling having a primary purpose in writing a novel creation of characters how fiction can express radical ideas better than non fiction showing the practical consequences of ideas and values good versus evil how moral issues stir emotions the art science of selfishness why is the concept of selfishness so misunderstood and misrepresented isn t everyone selfish selfishness is not the same as gratifying your every desire how altruism painted self interest as harming others who gave selfishness a bad name and how they did it tricks used by advocates of selflessness for instance the benevolence trap selflessness is opposed to happiness how altruism has created the modern trend of victim competition the selfish person is focused on respecting and valuing others ayn rand s remarkable clarification of this most misunderstood idea worse than mindless thugs the m1 exposed
