More Anti-Government Polling Data: Americans Prefer a Government Shutdown to Continuing Growth in Government Spending
Our masters in government never tire of reminding us that Congress must raise the debt ceiling and keep government growing. “Conservative” insiders say that voters will punish Republicans if Republicans in Congress ever challenge the President’s spending increases and “shut the government down.” But new polling shows–OVERWHELMINGLY–that a large majority of voters WOULD PREFER A …

Congress to Actually Investigate the Government’s Temperature “Adjustments”
Trusters of expansive, invasive, intrusive government frequently tout the government’s claims that global temperatures are rising due to human-released carbon dioxide. These claims are used to promote various socialist reforms including higher taxes and more government controls. But the claim of global warming rests only on theory, computer “modeling” and government (and government-funded) earth temperature …

Every government ultimately comes for all freedom, all property, all money, and to kill all who resist. Only the vitality of the private sector stands in their way.

Union loudly pushes $15 minimum wage–then quietly seeks its own “exemption” from its impacts!
Socialists and trusters of central planning are notorious hypocrites. But here is a story about the AFL-CIO that “takes the cake.” The AFL-CIO loudly promotes raising minimum wages around the country.

Science Group Asks NASA to Remove Bogus “97 % Consensus” Claim From NASA Website

Wesleyan University Eliminates Funding of Student Newspaper After it Prints “Conservative” Column
America’s colleges and universities have become dens of extreme pro-government, socialist sentiment where diverse views critical of the omnipotent state are generally shunned. Wesleyan University in Connecticut is typical.

ACLU: “Fixing” the Constitution to Overturn CITIZENS UNITED Would “Break the Constitution”
Many voices–who believe they are seeking “good government”–are calling for a constitutional amendment to give government the power to control political spending and advertising.

Government Now Claiming that Even Facebook Postings Can be Banned as Illegal “Campaign Contributions”
The movement to give government even more power over elections and campaigning grows more powerful by the day. Now a Colorado judge has ruled that a charter-school principal who posted a Facebook message indicating that one of the school’s students’ parents would make an “excellent education leader” was MAKING AN ILLEGAL CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION by doing …

Losing the battle on science, governments increasingly seek to “settle” the global-warming question in court
You know governments are losing the battle in the field of science when they seek to create judgments and “findings of fact.” They did it to Socrates. They did it to Galileo. Now, increasingly, governments and socialist promoters of the catastrophic-manmade-global-warming-by-human-released-CO2 theory are resorting to the strong arm of government venues, such as courts, commissions …

Federal Prosecutors Fail to Convict Ron Paul’s Two Top Campaign Officials
One of the most dangerous things one can do in any society is lead a movement that threatens the fundamental dominance of a king, a reigning politician, or prevailing government. During the 2008 and 2012 presidential campaigns, the Ron Paul movement was just such a threat to the sitting establishment. Last year, the U.S. Justice …
