Thomas Sowell:

“People who want the government to control the prices of pharmaceutical drugs seldom, if ever, raise the question of what actually happens in places and times when government has controlled the prices of pharmaceutical drugs.

Canada and other countries do it. What consequences have there been? One major consequence is that Canada and other countries do not create nearly as many of the new life-saving pharmaceutical drugs as the United States does.

These other countries live off the results—the medicines—produced by the enormously costly research that ‘obscene’ pharmaceutical profits finance in America.”

New York City will require IDs to prove you live in the city in order to shop in the city owned grocery stores. So you need an ID to shop in the city’s stores, but it would be racist to require an ID to vote. Perfection.

Dave Rubin asks Thomas Sowell:
Is education the number one thing a human being can do?

Sowell:
“I wouldn’t carry it too far… some of the most disastrous notions in the world have come from highly educated people with high IQs.”

Then the mic drop:
“I will settle for almost any kind of thinking. It’s so rare these days.” @RubinReport

@DailySowell This is sadly, so true. Need less of these “public servants”.

You can ban Bibles.
You can make Christianity illegal.
You can persecute the Church.
You can mock Christians.

But, you can not stop Jesus from being King, and for His Kingdom to reign forever.

[HEP @heparker]

@shane_pruitt78 One can try… but His Kingdom will reign forever. Amen.

🚨 WOW. In a TERRIFYING admission, the Democrat candidate for Florida governor David Jolly has endorsed plans to RE-INSTITUTE child s*x changes for the transgender cult — calling Florida's current ban on the practice "draconian"

He can NEVER be governor. THIS IS MENTAL ILLNESS!

"We saw the right pathways...the gender affirming care for this grandchild."

"He said, if this legislation passes, the doctor is arrested for 'caring' for my grandchild."

And he says it like it's a bad thing.

REJECT THIS LEFTIST, FLORIDA ☀️

Thomas Sowell: “Despite a voluminous and often fervent literature on ‘income distribution,’ the cold fact is that most income is not distributed: It is earned.”

In 2021, Elon offered to sell Tesla stock and donate $6 BILLION to the UN World Food Programme.

His condition: ▹Show exactly how the money would be spent with full public open-source accounting so everyone could see where every dollar went.

▹The WFP never met the condition.

The donation never happened.

If you have a son or daughter who's starting to think that socialism is the answer to our problems, I want you to try something and report back:

Next time you talk, don't argue. Sit down, ask these questions, and just listen:

- When you say "socialism," do you mean that you want the government to pay for a bigger safety net like in Denmark, or that the government owns the means of production? Because those are two very different countries.

- You say the system is rigged. Who rigged it? And who should be handed the power to un-rig it?

- Who sets the price of bread? If not a single person or corporation, what causes that price to remain steady or go up?

- Can you name a country where the state took ownership of the means of production and the poor got richer?

- When borders open or the walls fall down, anywhere in the world, which direction do people run? Towards the free market system or the socialist system? And before the boundaries fell, which way were the guns pointed?

- Would you rather be poor today, or rich in 1900? By the way, only one of those has antibiotics.

- If you and I make a voluntary trade, and we both walk away happy, who got hurt?

- Someone has to decide what your work is worth. Would you rather it be you and the person paying you, or a bureaucrat with an army who has never met either of you?

Try having this conversation with your kids this week. Don't argue. Only listen. And if you want, call into my radio show and tell me how it went.

Just returned home from my 1st “total” FSD roads trip- a shorter (180 mi), warm-up for more to come. 2026 Juniper literally drove me from my garage to destination and back with just 1 intervention. Super charge was 👍 ALL highway and interstate roads and was marvelous. @Tesla
