A snippet from The Jason Stapleton Show I’m not joking. If you’re looking for the “American Dream,” (the joy of owning your home and the idea that your children will do better than you) your odds are far better in Canada than they are here in America. According to a new study from the St. Louis Fed if you start in the bottom 1/5 of society you are twice as likely to end up in the top 1/5 if you live in Canada rather than the U.S. Many would say we have a wealth inequality problem, but that has nothing to do with it. It’s a question of focus. America chooses to focus on inequality rather than mobility and ends up with greater inequality and less mobility. It’s something that has to change if we want America to be the Land of Opportunity again. *** I’m also going to talk a little foreign policy. Secretary of State Tillerson has announced a much tougher line with North Korea as we move one step closer to war. In reading the article, it reminded me of an email I received from a 10th grader who listens to the show. He was asking me about World War II, and I think his question has parallels with our situation today. Lots of great stuff in today’s episode including a video of Nancy Pelosi making a fool of herself…again. Enjoy, and don’t forget to visit jasonstapleton.com for the full episode and more!

Do you remember what Candidate Trump's Healthcare Reform Plan looked like? I'll remind you that it was glorious. It was as if his campaign consultants hand-selected numerous Libertarian, free-market policies and listed them out in bullet points.
Anyone who has read Economics in One Lesson, or passed any Econ101 course cheered it. Unfortunately, it's long been forgotten. Of course it would necessarily be better than the current tripe which is funded by millions of dollars worth of insurance company lobbyists and currently debated on the Senate floor, but we won't even hear its merits debated in a public forum. Our legislation process has devolved intoyelling down one another with more and more politician's talking points. "Millions will Die" is obviously all that is needed to be said to defeat any change to the ObamaCare disaster. Not worth mentioning is other politician talking points such as "The average American Family will save $2500 annually under ObamaCare" and, of course, "If you like your doctor or plan, you can keep your doctor or plan." 
An overview:
1. Completely repeal Obamacare. 2. Modify existing law that inhibits the sale of health insurance across state lines. 3. Allow individuals to fully deduct health insurance premium payments from their tax returns under the current tax system. 4. Allow individuals to use Health Savings Accounts (HSAs). 5. Require price transparency from all healthcare providers, especially doctors and healthcare organizations like clinics and hospitals. 6. Block-grant Medicaid to the states. 7. Remove barriers to entry into free markets for drug providers that offer safe, reliable and cheaper products. Either way, if you want to read a quick 4-page primer on health care reform, here it is. It's appealing because it was designed to lure you into voting for Trump. Unfortunately, once you're in power, ceding that power to the free market is a tougher task than any president can accomplish. President Trump should go back and demand legislators FULLY REPEAL ObamaCare and institute a concise version of this: Follow libertyLOL on your favorite social media sites:FacebookYoutube Tumblr Pintrest Countable: Government Made Simple Steemit blog on a blockchain Patreon Gab.ai libertyLOL's Liberty Blog RSS Feed We also run a couple twitterbots which provide great quotes and book suggestions: Murray Rothbard Suggests Tom Woods Suggests Jason Stapleton Suggests Progressive Contradictions MORE FROM LIBERTYLOL:
A snippet from The Jason Stapleton Show Whether we’re talking about second amendment rights or the right to keep what we earn, the natural rights provided by “our creator” as well as those protected by the Constitution are under constant assault. Today we’re going to look at several examples of the ways government lies to us, and why we must be ever vigilant when given, we hear these silver tongued foxes promise us the moon in exchange for our liberty. I have come to believe the greatest threat to our liberty is not a foreign government or invading army. It’s not even a terrorist attack.

The sheer coldness and meanness of this professor's mentality is simply shocking--utterly horrible. We should always remember that no one "side" has a monopoly on hatefulness.
I agree with the many, many Americans calling for her firing. Universities pride themselves on their championing of free speech, and they should: free speech is an integral part of our society and of our republican system of government. Support for free speech, however, should not lead our universities to believe that they are unable to stand for any sort of system of values at all. There must be lines whose crossing, even if not unconstitutional, should nevertheless not be tolerated by institutions whose primary purpose is to aid the development of the next generations of American society. There's a professional issue here as well though. It is now very reasonable to believe that males--especially white males--cannot receive a fair grade in her class. This professor has asserted that white males literally deserve to be killed simply because they are white males. She then went on to imply in a thinly-veiled manner that the murderous, thuggish North Korean regime holds itself to a higher standard than does our society. This is the sort of poison and polarization that our universities should be protecting young people from--teaching them that this is not how civilized people behave. To be sure, Americans have no business traveling to North Korea. There is no conceivable circumstance under which any American should find himself in North Korea. Otto Warmbier made a very poor decision--an easily avoided mistake--in deciding to go to North Korea. Indeed, the U.S. government should institute a travel ban barring Americans from stepping foot inside that country. None of this, however, means that white men deserve to be killed because they are white men, and none of it shifts the blame for Warmbier's murder from the North Korean government, which, like the Taliban before 2001, is simply a murderous criminal gang that happens to currently find itself in control of a small piece of territory. We should support free speech. It's very important. "Free speech," however, doesn't mean "don't stand for anything and allow hateful influencers to instruct our young adults." Hateful and violence-condoning ideology against any race, gender, etc. cannot be allowed to fester and grow in our educational system under the guise of "free speech." She should certainly be free to say these things without fear of imprisonment but not as a university instructor. This professor should be fired.

A snippet from The Jason Stapleton Show Jason Stapleton explains how the U.S. military, spent 600 million dollars on 20 Italian cargo planes that ended up being ill-suited for the hot, dusty conditions of Afghanistan.
