The UK’s Orwellian sounding Equality Act 2010 is strikingly Marxist. It demands equal pay for work of equal value where these are defined as follows: A’s work is equal to that of B if it is like B’s work, rated as equivalent to B’s work, or of equal value to B’s work. A’s work is […]

In the late 1960s and early 1970s, slightly more than half of all mothers were in the labour force. These women worked, on average, 24 hours per week for a little more than $10 per hour.
Today, 85 percent of all daughters are employed, and they work 10 additional hours per week and earn $9 more per hour.

“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire.
