Well, here we go again. I was introduced to the idea of UBI—or Universal Basic Income, or GBI as this latest report calls it—a number of years ago by excited socialists who were all in favour of it.

We Cannot Be More Merciful Than God
Let us try to be honest with ourselves. Picture to yourself a man who has risen to wealth or power by a continued course of treachery and cruelty, by exploiting for purely selfish ends the noble motions of his victims, laughing the while at their simplicity; who, having thus attained success, uses it for theContinue reading “We Cannot Be More Merciful Than God”
