Court Tosses Colorado’s “Amazon Tax,” Injustice Remains
Ari Armstrong April 6, 2012
No, Colorado cannot unilaterally impose tax obligations on out-of-state businesses, U.S. District Judge Robert Blackburn ruled recently. Blackburn threw out Colorado’s 2010 “Amazon Tax” that sought to force out-of-state sellers to assist the state in collecting sales taxes from residents. The judge ruled that the controls “impose an undue burden…

Richard Salsman: Strike Down All Health-Care Mandates
Joshua Lipana April 5, 2012
Richard Salsman in a new piece in Forbes.com makes an illuminating point about the efforts to defend ObamaCare: Defenders of ObamaCare before the Supreme Court last week argued from precedent, reminding the justices that there were already scores of mandates embedded throughout America’s semi-socialized health care system – including the…

Joshua Lipana April 4, 2012

Obama’s Attack on the Supreme Court is an Assault on the American System
Michael A. LaFerrara April 3, 2012
In response to the unexpectedly skeptical Supreme Court hearings on ObamaCare, an insolent President Obama declared that “overturning the law would amount to an ‘unprecedented, extraordinary step’ of judicial activism,” reports David Nakamura. Obama questioned the authority of the nine-member panel of unelected justices to reverse legislation that was approved…

Reason Ralliers Need the "How" of Reason-Based Rights
Ari Armstrong April 2, 2012
“America was not founded on God and religion. America was founded on reason,” said Michael Shermer, editor of Skeptic magazine, at the 2012 Reason Rally in Washington, DC. He added: The Age of Reason . . . was the age when humanity was born again, not from original sin, but…

Keep the Lights On—and Shine ‘Em on Environmentalist Nonsense
Craig Biddle March 31, 2012
Turning out the lights for “Earth Hour” is the perfect symbol of the ultimate goal of the environmentalist movement, which is to erase industry—and thus human life—from the face of the Earth. To genuine environmentalists (as against people who call themselves environmentalists but don’t understand what the movement is really…

Memo to Justice Kagan: Taxes Are Coercive
Ari Armstrong March 30, 2012
Apparently Justice Elena Kagan is oblivious to the obvious fact that taxes are coercive, in that they forcibly take wealth away from the owners of that wealth and give it to others. On Wednesday, the Supreme Court considered oral arguments regarding the Medicaid mandate that ObamaCare would impose on states.…

Why does E.J. Dionne Pretend the United States is a Democracy?
Gideon Reich March 30, 2012
Commenting on the Supreme Court session regarding Obamacare, Washington Post columnist E.J. Dionne, Jr. wrote: And in arguing for restraint, Justice Sonia Sotomayor asked what was wrong with leaving as much discretion as possible “in the hands of the people who should be fixing this, not us.” It was nice…

Proposed Ban on Words Assaults Reason and Life
Ari Armstrong March 29, 2012
I am nearly at a loss for words: “The New York City Department of Education is waging a war on words of sorts, and is seeking to have words they deem upsetting removed from standardized tests,” reports CBS New York. The offending words include “dinosaur” because the term suggests “evolution…

Force Begets Force Under Health Mandates
Ari Armstrong March 29, 2012
The Supreme Court heard oral arguments Tuesday pertaining to the ObamaCare insurance mandate. At issue is whether the federal government may force people to purchase health insurance. The arguments demonstrate that the mandate is a response to the problems created by other government controls of health care and insurance. Consider…

Mandatory DNA Testing for Newborns and Parents would Violate their Rights
Michael A. LaFerrara March 28, 2012
At the behest of “fathers’ rights advocates,” New Jersey Assemblyman Gilbert Wilson (D) has “proposed a measure . . . that would require all newborns—and their parents—to undergo genetic testing to create a record should questions arise about whom the father or mother is.” A justifiably angry NJ Star-Ledger columnist,…

[caption id="attachment_3328" align="alignright" width="199"] Image: SpaceX[/caption] A question has been bothering me since a Colorado high school student asked me last year: Why don’t the news media report more good news? Part of the answer lies in the nature of the business: “If it bleeds, it leads,” goes the rationale.…

Joshua Lipana March 26, 2012
T-Mobile, other companies, and so-called “public-interest” groups, are calling for the government to block Verizon’s purchase of “spectrum from cable companies,” the Washington Times reports. The “justifications” for this call for government force are that (1) if Verizon were to make such a purchase, that would create “‘excessive concentration’ of…
