Harvard's endowment grows faster than its annual tuition costs every year. It literally has enough money to cover the tuition for every student, forever, without any financial assistance from taxpayers. So why are we taking tax dollars away from the 99 percent of Americans who never went to an Ivy League college and giving it to the incubation chamber of tomorrow's trust fund tycoons?
Reason’s Emma Camp breaks down what is and is not free speech.
We were not defending their speech. We were resisting giving the government the power to decide that their speech could be banned, because once you gave the government the power to decide that their speech could be banned, you also gave the government the power to decide that your speech could be banned.
Open speech is under attack around the world. Canada’s Rebel News founder Ezra Levant warns what might happen if we lose free speech in America. Politicians in Canada plan to punish "hate speech" with life in prison. In England and Scotland, you already can get arrested for “hateful” posts. J.K.

Who, exactly, is Chase Oliver? And what does he really stand for?Oliver is the Libertarian Party's 2024 presidential nominee, selected after six rounds of voting at a contentious party convention in Washington, DC this weekend, which featured speeches from RFK, Jr., Vivek Ramaswamy and Donald J. Trump, who suggested himself as the nominee to a chorus of boos. Oliver was not the preferred candidate of the Mises Caucus, who remains in control of the Libertarian Party, and several of their higher profile members, such as Dave Smith, have said they will not vote for him, with several accusing him of being too woke, too pro immigration, and too soft on COVID restrictions. We'll ask him to address all of that today. Oliver, a 38-year-old sales executive, rose to prominence in the party as the 2022 Libertarian Senate candidate in a highly competitive race in Georgia, where he pulled 2 percent of the vote and forced it into a runoff, which ultimately resulted in the Democrats winning, tipping the balance of the Senate in their favor.
While the official unemployment rate remains at a low 3.9%, there is an epidemic in the US and other Western countries of men -- and now increasingly women -- without work.These are millions of otherwise able-bodied working age adults who have given up on finding work, often driven to do so out of frustration and despair. It's gotten to the point where 1 in 6 prime working age men has no paid work at all. What is causing this?And what can be done about it?Because when an increasing percentage of your prime working age population stops contributing to economic productivity, not only do they suffer the consequences of diminished prosperity -- we all do.For a deep dive into this pressing crisis, we're fortunate to speak today with Nicholas Eberstadt, the Henry Wendt Chair in Political Economy at the American Enterprise Institute and author of the book Men Without Work.
In Florida, prisoners are charged $50 for every day of their original sentence—meaning they keep getting charged, even if they are released early. When former inmates inevitably fail to pay this massive bill, it can prevent them from ever moving on from their period spent behind bars.
