En 1979, un presentador de TV le preguntó a Milton Friedman si no le daba vergüenza defender un sistema basado en la codicia.

La respuesta se estudia hasta hoy:

«—Cuando ves la mala distribución de la riqueza, tan pocos que tienen tanto y tantos que no tienen nada… ¿nunca has dudado del capitalismo, de si la codicia es una buena idea?

—Primero dime: ¿conoces alguna sociedad que NO funcione con codicia? ¿Crees que Rusia no funciona con codicia? ¿Que China no?

¿Y qué es la codicia? Ninguno de nosotros es codicioso, claro. El codicioso siempre es el otro.

Los grandes logros de la civilización no salieron de despachos del gobierno. Einstein no construyó su teoría por orden de un burócrata. Ford no revolucionó el automóvil así.

Los únicos casos en la historia en los que las masas escaparon de la pobreza son aquellos donde hubo capitalismo y libre comercio.

—Pero parece premiar la habilidad de manipular el sistema, no la virtud.

—¿Y qué premia la virtud? ¿Crees que un comisario comunista premia la virtud? ¿Un Hitler? ¿Crees que los presidentes americanos eligen sus cargos por virtud… o por peso político?

Dime: ¿dónde están esos ángeles que van a organizar la sociedad por nosotros?

Yo ni siquiera confío en ti para hacerlo.»

If the Canadian government were a private corporation it would be hit with multibillion dollar class action lawsuits

The Canadian parliament & Mark Carney's decision not to do the most basic forest maintenance out of climate activism stupidity is now threatening hundreds of millions of Americans with carcinogens.

Levy sanctions & then take Alberta as compensation.

[Neil Stone @DrNeilStone]

I have no time for conspiracy theories in general but the Iran regime and Putin both hated Lindsey Graham and threatened him repeatedly so it doesn't take a huge leap of the imagination to be suspicious

David McCullough on the meaning of work in America, in the context of the Brooklyn Bridge. Spectacular. Bookmark if you don’t have time now.

Imagine if corporate media covered taxpayer fraud and abuse with the same zeal

[jim iuorio @jimiuorio]

I’ve thought long and hard about the decision by @PeteButtigieg and @SenWarren to block the merger of @JetBlue and @SpiritAirlines back in January of 2024. It was so obvious that it would salvage a poorly run airline and save jobs that even a fifth grader would understand why it was a good thing. It would not have created any real anti trust concerns as both airlines combined would have accounted for less than 10% of total domestic air travel. The only reason I can think of is that they believed the appearance of protecting the consumer(which they obviously did not do) was more important than protecting the jobs of the majority of the 14,000 people employed by Spirit. We can’t continue to have ignoramuses making important decisions if we expect to have a good economy…

I voted for Trump because I wanted a war with Iran and a new ballroom.

A case study on why you should unbutton your suit before you sit down

Standing ovation for this line from King Charles: The U.S. Supreme court historical society has calculated that Magna Carta is cited in at least 160 supreme court cases since 1789, not least as the foundation of the principle that executive power is subject to checks and balances.

[John Seravalli @John_Seravalli1]

This is a tough look for @rosadelauro. No idea what she’s talking about, no idea about relevant Supreme Court decisions — completely ill prepared. She, and her staff, don’t know what they’re doing.

Today’s the 40th anniversary of Chernobyl. I can count on one hand the amount of times I’ve been there. It’s 14.

$178 million was dispersed by the state of California to a group of 3 people. Unchecked, unmonitored, and without review.

How can anyone take the leaders of these governments seriously?

This should be the scariest video any elected official has ever seen.

We cite Wall Street bonuses as proof that New York’s economy is thriving, but the CEO of the largest private employer in the city is publicly admitting his headcount here is shrinking while he grows in Texas.

The tax base we’re counting on is quietly walking out the door. Instead of pro-growth policy that attracts new investment, our electeds keep fishing from the same shrinking pond and then act surprised when the catch gets smaller every year. If we don’t change course, keep increasing our bills … there will be almost no one left to pay it.

[Dean W. Ball @deanwball]

Calvin Coolidge was really spittin when he said this.

[Saritha Komatireddy @sarithaforny]

I was a federal prosecutor for 12 years. My entire career has been dedicated to keeping New York safe. Unfortunately, under Letitia James, crime is ⬆️ 26%, drug deaths are ⬆️ 63%, and anti-Semitic incidents are ⬆️ 234%.

[Ian Miller @ianmSC]

The thing you have to understand about California is that outcomes literally do not matter. It does not matter how much Democrats fail here. They will get 70% of the vote in LA and 80-90% of the vote in the Bay Area forever. And that’s why it’s only going to get worse.

[Clay Travis @ClayTravis]

Iran has reportedly kidnapped the families of the Iranian women’s soccer team members who requested asylum & the women are now abandoning those claims and returning to the country to face torture or death. No prominent left wing American women’s soccer players have said a word.

This entire administration is a photoshoot and does nothing to help people living in NYC

Imagine telling someone on 9/12 that this is how NY City Hall will look in 2026

[Bob Lonsberry @BobLonsberry]

This is American law enforcement. Manhattan North Chief Aaron Edwards took the first NYPD test after terrorists attacked on September 11. He wanted to protect his city. And that's what he was doing Saturday when he chased down a bomb-throwing terrorist outside Gracie Mansion.
