Makers, Takers, and Representation without Taxation
The American minister Jonathan Mayhew (October 8, 1720 – July 9, 1766) is credited with coining the phrase “No taxation without representation.”My review of Nicholas Eberstadt’s A Nation of Takers: America’s Entitlement Epidemic appears in the current issue of The City(currently available in print).

Business Entrepreneur Focuses on Catholic Education
Frank Hanna III, CEO of Hanna Capital, LLC, has made Catholic education a special focus. In an interview with the National Catholic Register, Hanna spoke of the challenges, changes and reasons to champion religious education: The more I looked into the issues of society, the more I became convinced that a lot of our societal failings happen much sooner; so much of the foundation of our failure was happening in our educational system.

Dunn, Oikonomia, and Assault Weapons: Misappropriating a Principle?
Update (1/31/2013): David Dunn Responds to my post, Fr. Gregory’s post, and others: here. Original post: David J.
