Samuel Gregg on Venezuela’s agony, the Catholic Church, and a post-Maduro future
Although many are dissatisfied with the Vatican’s efforts to mediate Venezuela’s political crisis, says Acton Institute research director Samuel Gregg, Venezuela’s Catholic Church is the one institution that has retained its integrity throughout two decades of a leftist-populist tyranny. What might this mean for a post-dictatorship Venezuela? One of history’s less palatable lessons is that dictatorial regimes can stay in power a long time. We can talk endlessly about humanity’s insuppressible yearning for liberty, but if a government retains its...
Class struggle and the end of identity politics
As the Democratic party in the United States gears up for the 2020 presidential campaign, and a host of candidates announce their entry into the fray, some have observed a (class?) struggle between what might be called the Old Left (the sort of democratic socialism associated with Bernie Sanders) and the New Left (the identity politics of a new generation of progressives). Is the identity politics of the New Left an extension of the old Marxistic dialectic of class struggle...
Who was St. Patrick?
Did St. Patrick really drive all the snakes out of Ireland? Was he ever canonized a saint? Was he even Irish? In this short video Timothy Paul Jones answers those questions and more. ...
Explainer: What you should know about the national debt
What just happened? Last month the U.S. Treasury Department reported that for the first time, the national debt has exceeded $22 trillion. What is the national debt? The national debt of the U.S. (also known as gross national debt) is the total amount of debt a federal government owes to creditors (public debt) and to itself (intragovernmental debt). What is public debt? Public debt is the portion of the national debt that the U.S. Treasury has borrowed from outside lenders...
How to make America smart again
Over the past week America has been fascinated and appalled by the latest college admissions cheating scandal. Much of the attention has been focused on the bribing of coaches to get kids into school with fake athletic credentials. But the even more absurd part of the scandal is that parents were paying between $15,000 and $75,000 per test to help their children get a better score on the SAT. The parents seem to believe that the SAT was a mere...
Is higher education ripe for creative destruction?
The recent revelations of a nationwide college admissions and testing bribery scheme have met with a variety of reactions. There have been conversations about fairness and privilege in admissions practices. There have been expressions of lack of surprise, cynicism, or “that’s just how the world works.” And there are already the beginnings of a class-action lawsuit by students who claim their college degrees have been devalued by the rigged admissions system. There are a lot of reasons to be pessimistic...
The person at the center of the economy
When we think about economics we can tend to immediately focus on mathematics, data, and graphs, but at its core economics is the study of human action in a marketplace. Economics is a human science. Which means we need to have a clear vision of who the human person is and how he acts. Much of modern economic theory operates with the assumption of human beings as “rational maximizers.” This is called homo-economicus—economic man. Now the reduction of man to...
Huckleberry Finn’s moral conscience
Few authors could spin words as well as Mark Twain, but the image of the chronicler of the Mississippi is perhaps one more of style and storytelling than of depth. We don’t read Tom Sawyer or Huckleberry Finn and expect to find great moral insights or penetrating philosophy. Twain’s own preface to Adventures of Huckleberry Finn runs: “Persons attempting to find a motive in this narrative will be prosecuted; persons attempting to find a moral in it will be banished;...
National health care topples a Nordic government
Failure to reform the national health system has ledthe government to collapse inone of the most statist governments following the Nordic model. Prime Minister Juha Sipiläof Finland and his cabinet members have resigned after failing to rein in the nation’s health care costs and provide petition. es as reports show private citizens in Finland increasingly turning to the free market to meet the shortfalls of the nationalized system. Sipilä’s proposal would give citizens – who may already choose between public-sector...
Acton Line: Denmark isn’t socialist; Who is William Penn?
On this episode of Acton Line, Caroline Roberts speaks with Acton’s senior editor, Rev. Ben Johnson, about a new study released by a free market think tank in Denmark, claiming that Denmark isn’t actually socialist. Although Denmark is regularly cited as a country whose socialist policies have done good, this isn’t the whole story. Denmark isn’t technically socialist, and the current welfare state program has done harm despite what you may have heard. After that, Alan R. Crippen, II, Chief...
