1281: Henry Hazlitt – Government-Provided Free Tuition

W1281: Henry Hazlitt - Government-Provided Free Tuition
Government-provided free tuition tends more and more to produce a uniform conformist education, with college faculties ultimately dependent for their jobs on the government, and so developing an economic interest in the profession and teaching a statist, pro-government, and socialist ideology. —Henry Hazlitt

1273: Walter Block – Libertarianism is Neither Left nor Right

W1273: Walter Block - Libertarianism is Neither Left nor Right
Libertarianism is neither of the left nor of the right. It is unique. It is sui generis. It is apart from left and right. The left-right political spectrum simply has no room for libertarianism. Think of an equilateral triangle, with libertarianism at one corner, the left at a second corner and the right at the third corner. We are equally distant from both of those misbegotten political economic philosophies. No, better yet, think in terms of an isosceles triangle, with us at the top and the two of them at the bottom, indicating they have more in common with each other than with us. —Walter Block

1155: Kerry McDonald – Critical Race Theory is a Harmful Ideology

W1155: Kerry McDonald - Critical Race Theory is a Harmful Ideology
Critical race theory is the practice of viewing all social and cultural issues through the lens of race. [It] is a harmful and divisive ideology influenced by Marxism that moves us further away from Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.’s vision of a nation that focuses on individual character, not color. It is important to speak out against this ideology that places group identity above individualism. —Kerry McDonald

1125: Michael Rectenwald – Totalitarian Moral Arrogance & Lack of Humility

W1125: Michael Rectenwald - Totalitarian Moral Arrogance
The primary characteristic of totalitarian ideologues is essentially moral arrogance, a complete lack of moral humility, and the certain conviction that they themselves are justice incarnate. They thus believe that they are completely justified to exert their will to achieve their desired ends 'by any means necessary'. Such ideologues rejoiced when God was declared 'dead', as such, because now they could assume the authority of God for themselves. —Michael Rectenwald (Springtime for Snowflakes)
