Why Socialism’s A Threat?

Austrian economist Friedrich Hayek warned: “Socialism constitutes a threat to the present and future welfare of the human race.”

Here’s why we should listen to Hayek. Here’s more from John Stossel.

The War On Steak

Steak: It’s not what’s for dinner. Climate activists want to take steak off your plate.

They say beef causes biodiversity breakdown, high methane emissions, global warming.

Stossel TV Fellow Linnea Lueken shows why much of this fear mongering is nonsense.

Paul Vs. Fauci

Sen Rand Paul, R-Kentucky, has publicly feuded with Dr. Anthony Fauci over his handling of the pandemic. Fauci lied to Congress, denying the role his federal agency played in funding the Covid-19 research at the Wuhan lab in Communist China.

Will Fauci be punished? He is most certainly no better than a common criminal. But we’ll see if our Congress has the will to enforce law or not.

Regardless of whether he serves time, it’s safe to say: What a miserable excuse for the medical profession. Owing to this man’s arrogance, they have lost much of their status among everyday citizens. Here’s more from John Stossel.

 

Burned And Buried

Wildfires destroyed 13,000 homes in California. Gavin Newsom promised “efficiency” in granting permits for rebuilding.

“Efficiency” must not mean much to him. More than year later, not even 1% of destroyed homes have been rebuilt. Why? “Decades of red tape,” says a survivor. Gere’s more from John Stossel.

Home Wreckers

“Wall Street giants … you’ve driven up housing prices!”

That sounds like something Elizabeth Warren would say, but that’s a quote from President Trump!

It’s absurd.

Those investors’ renovation and construction LOWERS prices. Here’s more from John Stossel, examining how Trump is becoming a strange roommate to the likes of Warren and Gavin Newsom.

The “Warmth” Of Collectivism

Socialists like New York City’s new mayor push the “warmth” of collectivism. Activists chant about “sharing the prosperity.”

But every time they build their model of a socialist utopia, a commune, they fail! Here’s more from John Stossel.

Heroes > Victims

“Other people own you.” says Hollywood. “Sacrifice your dreams, for the good of others.”

But individuals pursuing their own dreams made America great.

Here Timothy Sandefur, author of the new book, You Don’t Own Me, reveals how stupid Hollywood can be. Sandefur explains why America loves individualism while Hollywood hates it. Here’s more from John Stossel.

The Golden Ages

Ancient Athens, Rome, the Renaissance…

“What sets these golden ages apart,” says Johan Norberg “is that … they managed to give more people more freedoms.”

In this extended interview we discuss how that allowed them to prosper, but also what led to their decline. Norberg is a Swedish author and historian, noted for his defense of capitalism.  He’s interviewed here by John Stossel.

Capitalism > Socialism

Socialism ALWAYS fails. So today’s socialists argue: “That wasn’t real socialism!”

They say that about the Soviet Union. Give me a break.

Here I debunk myths about socialism vs. capitalism. Steering this boat: John Stossel.

How Wikipedia Got Captured

I once reported on how great Wikipedia was.

Now, it’s FULL of propaganda.

That’s a big problem because its bad information corrupts AI and search results.

Here, John Stossel describes how leftist editors and foreign influences have corrupted one of the Internet’s largest sources of information.
