Pick up an old book and you sit down with the wisest men who ever lived. Our founders read that way, and it shows in what they built.

A child learns what a father is like long before he learns what God is like. Patience and steadiness at home are the first sermon our kids will ever hear.

“Parents, let’s ask ourselves a searching question: If our children had to say what God is like based on how we act toward them, what might they say?”

A man who keeps the fruits of his own labor has every reason to work harder, save more, and build something that lasts. That is how a free country grows.

Why does Thomas Sowell strongly support tax cuts?
His reasoning goes beyond simply wanting people to pay less in taxes.
Sowell argues that when people keep more of what they earn, they have more incentive to work, save, invest and build businesses.
The bigger the government’s claim on your income, the less control you have over the fruits of your own work.
