Environmental groups are now the BIG GUYS, rolling in money.
It’s bad enough that they peddle scares to get paid. Worse is the damage they do.
John Stossel explains how they block progress, in a video bearing the full title “The Green Industrial Complex: Power, Panic and Profits.”
20 years ago, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that local politicians can TAKE your home to build development they think will bring in more tax $$.
New London, Connecticut, did just that. They claimed it would create jobs and raise tax revenue.
As so often happens, the politicians were WRONG: Here’s more from John Stossel.
How some “conservatives” now trash freedom and praise Karl Marx. This “new” section of the right is bashing individual liberty, even embracing Marxist ideas.
James Lindsay calls them the woke right.
He sent a conservative magazine a revised version of The Communist Manifesto, and they published it!
Here’s why they’re a problem. Here’s more from John Stossel.
Bizarrely, socialism is still popular among young people. They should listen to those who lived it!
“You don’t really know you have it good until you have it bad,” says Charles Ryu.
He escaped North Korea, twice.
He tells me his story and the importance of freedom: It’s a story of socialism, slavery, starvation, torture and escape. Here’s more from John Stossel.
Most kids get assigned to a school based on where they live. Live in a neighborhood with lousy schools? Too bad.
But now more states have school choice vouchers that let parents enroll kids in a better school. Great! But unions and bureaucrats resist. Here’s more from John Stossel.
President Donald Trump said he’d run the country like a business. But a company would try to lower costs. Tariffs INCREASE costs.
There’s an easy fix: “Admit you made a bad decision, and let’s move on,” says American business owner Victor Schwarz, “That’s what we do in business all the time.” Here’s more on The Art of the Bad Deal from John Stossel.
Half the Department of Education’s been fired or chose to leave!
Surely all those people were doing something?
“They weren’t!” says Corey DeAngelis, author of the book The Parent Revolution. “They were pushing paper, taking 6 figure salaries, and that’s why things haven’t changed much with half the Department gone.” Here’s more from John Stossel.
People vilify business for being “greedy.”
Yaron Brook calls that a cultural problem, the idea that “when you pursue your own self-interest, or when you produce and create, you are somehow a villain.”
Brook is the chairman of the board of The Ayn Rand Institute. Here, he sits down for an hour-long interview with John Stossel.
Among the topics they cover: Selfishness, immigration, war, love, liberty and, of course, Ayn Rand.
Activists say, “Climate change is worsening droughts!” But:
Globally, drought has not increased since 1900. And in the U.S., the EPA says the last 50 years were wetter than average.
The activists and the media (is there a difference?) get so much wrong about climate change.
Here is Climate Change Myths Part 2, discussing wildfires, droughts, rising sea levels and coral reefs. Here’s more from John Stossel.
We’ve all seen just how ludicrous the climate change warnings can be. Every politician exaggerates but very few of them can match the blowhard Al Gore, who kept yapping about catastrophes around the corner that never came.
Now, John Stossel takes a look at polar bears, Arctic ice and food shortages, while interviewing Linnea Lueken from The Heartland Institute. She hosts the weekly In The Tank podcast.
Stossel promises a second video soon, exploring more climate change myths and lies about the Arctic region.
