Liberty, today, is like yarn. Many disregard it as obsolete, irrelevant and generally uninteresting. But not in New Hampshire. At the Free State Project’s Liberty Forum in Nashua, NH this past weekend, I found intelligent, personable and dedicated libertarians who practice what they preach by having uprooted themselves and moved to New Hampshire to work […]

I‘m having a good laugh this evening at the CFO of Sage Electrochromics, Mike Kennedy, who’s upset that his $65 million loan guarantee from the Department of Energy (i.e., the little dictators doing business as “The Government”) is taking too long. “I’m guessing that we will have the money by the end of the year […]
