Capitalism — What’s Obvious and Not So Obvious

By Striker, on April 2nd, 2009

In the wake of the current political and economic crisis, there are several questions that I have asked that I would assume are also being asked by those who value freedom and individual rights.

By Striker, on February 10th, 2009

Failure is no fun, but it does teach essential lessons. We shouldn’t miss out on those lessons simply because we think we can afford to bail people out. Instead of trying to abolish failure via bailouts, we should let markets work, let failure run its course, and be so much the wiser for it.

Striker: Not a long boring story, but a very clear ending.

Principled Perspectives – Conservatism’s Second Obituary

By Striker, on November 17th, 2008

If the ‘conservatives’ do not stand for capitalism, they stand for nothing; they have no goal, no direction, no political principles, no social ideals, no intellectual values, no leadership to offer anyone.

Event: Capitalism Without Guilt: The Moral Case for Freedom

By Striker, on November 8th, 2008

Capitalism has an undisputed record of wealth generation, yet it has always functioned under a cloud of moral suspicion. In a culture that venerates Mother Teresa as a paragon of virtue, businessmen sit in stoic silence while their pursuit of profits is denounced as selfish greed.
