From 2019. It appears that the number of prisoners has leveled off and even declined slightlyly over the past decade even as population size has increased. My guess is that the overlords of the system have decided that two million prisoners is the optimal amount needed to keep […]
So, apparently, we presently have an anarchic oasis, according to Ms. Abrams. Because the right to vote for some idiot or sociopath every few years is the most sacred right of all. Stacey Abrams issued a dire warning that the US could be sliding to authoritarianism because of […]

By William N. Walker, Wall Street Journal The lifting of lockdowns and easy monetary and fiscal policy will likely lead to much higher prices.

It is interesting that an increasingly greater number of folks on the economic left are now realizing what I have been saying for over 20 years, i.e. that “political correctness” is used by the ruling class to distract attention from class (and other) issues and prevent class unity […]
I would go further than this analysis by Soave and argue that “woke capitalism” IS conservatism at this point if by conservatism we mean someone that wants to defend the interests of the existing ruling class and political status quo. Those who oppose “woke capitalism” from the right […]
By Bryan Caplan I teach the economics of discrimination every chance I get. Why? Because the analytical framework, launched by the great Gary Becker in 1957, mightily illuminates so many questions that we care so much about. When you see that almost all garbage collectors are male, for […]
By Bryan Caplan Last year, I tried to figure out why there aren’t a lot more right-wing (or apolitical) firms. A recent piece by Richard Hanania comes down firmly in favor of my Explanation #4. To review: Explanation #4. Few moderates or right-wingers care enough to create a major profit […]
The main effect of Trumpism seems to have been to accelerate the leftward drift of US culture. I would point out, however, that it is only on cultural issues where the left is winning. The USA continues to be as statist, capitalist, and imperialist as it ever was, […]

Probably so. Conventional proletarians tend to be instinctively conservative in the sense of disliking disorder and anything viewed as personally threatening.
