Revisiting the Road to Serfdom
Friedrich Hayek’s 1944 The Road to Serfdom is firmly established as one of those books you’re supposed to read. But on the spectrum of works about economics, it probably falls more on the Wealth of Nations and Das Kapital side than on the Economics in One Lesson or even Freakonomics side. If its style and language appear somewhat dated, that’s because it was published in 1944. It is also focused on conditions to be found in prewar England and Germany, which takes the book into questions of not just economics but politics too. Yet Hayek’s book has stood the test of time, because its key messages are not constricted by...
Antifa and AltRight
These criminal rioters are playing from the same script, but it was not written by George Soros–though he may have bought the current rights to it–but by the revolutionaries in 1848 and, more particularly, by the Communist terrorists of the 1920’s, who tried took over Hungary and tried to take over Germany and Italy. If you want to understand how Mussolini–a comparatively benevolent despot–and the far from benevolent Hitler–came to power, all you need to know is that it was facilitated by Leftist terrorism.
A League of Our Own, Part Two (Conclusion)
There are only two alternatives for this continental empire that has never been a real nation: Either we find the means to decentralize decision-making and restore authority to the old institutions of family and town and county (and even state), or else we lapse into a multifaceted civil war of blacks against Hispanics against whites against blacks against Jews…

He says nothing, because there is nothing he can say. He has no excuse, because he has not conformed to the required custom and prefigures, therefore, those who hear the call to Christ but refuse to do what is required, such as seek baptism, go to Church, lead a life in accordance with the moral law He taught.

Subsidized Illiteracy
This murder of English and logic is being practiced by academics throughout the 50 states. It results in a professor, testifying in the Senate, who has to ask what the word “exculpatory” means. It results in hundreds of thousands of self-styled intellectuals who ridicule a successful businessman-turned-President who has that particle of common sense they will never have
Life Lived without Law
Two unrelated events have connected themselves in my mind this week. My first story concerns a piece I read a couple of months ago about a priest in the diocese of Fall River, MA. He had begun his career as a seminarian at St. John’s Seminary, Brighton, MA, in the early 1990s. In his first-year there, the academic dean, one Fr. John Farrell, not only described one of his homosexual adventures to the whole first-year class, but “inappropriately touched” our student twice or, as we would say in the language of the law, assaulted him. He was not the only...
