As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “Living in Modern Times,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…

"I believe in an individual's right to choose what to do with their own body, but government should ban trans fat and sugary drinks, fine those who don't buy health insurance, and tightly regulate drugs for our own good." "I believe in private property and limited government, but taxes are the price we need to pay to secure the border, keep the streets safe, and defend out freedoms from those who wish to end our way of life."

"Image there are no countries. No sociopathic narcissists demanding that we kowtow to them, do what they tell us, and thank them for the privilege of lying helpless while they do what no one has a just right to do - at our expense. Imagine that these preposterous pretenders have been laughed off the stage. Imagine that we have finally awakened to an understanding of our natural rights and the need to insist that they be respected by everyone. Imagine. It's easy if you try. We would finally have emerged from our species' prolonged childhood and become mature human beings at last, no longer crying out for a stern and violent Big Daddy or Big Mommy to save us from the bogeyman they tell us are out there. Imagine. Sure, you may call me a dreamer, but I'm not the only one." - Robert Higgs

Stop Treating Marijuana Like Heroin:
http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/13/opinion/a-small-victory-for-more-sensible-marijuana-policies.html

Supporters of a saner marijuana policy scored a small victory this week when the Obama administration said it would authorize more institutions to grow marijuana for medical research. But the government passed up an opportunity to make a more significant change.

The Drug Enforcement Administration on Thursday turned down two petitions— one from the governors of Rhode Island and Washington and the other from a resident of New Mexico — requesting that marijuana be removed from Schedule 1 of the Controlled Substances Act.

Syrup Smugglers Take on the Maple Mafia:
https://fee.org/articles/syrup-smugglers-take-on-the-maple-mafia/

() O Canada – the land of moose and snow, where the drugs are cheap, the people are notoriously nice, and the maple syrup farmers are clapped in irons.

Apparently it is unacceptable for a person to take something from a tree – A. Tree. – put it in a bucket, turn it into magic-tasting sugar, and give it to someone else in exchange for monies, without a government-mandated middle man swooping in on a snowmobile to take most of the sugar, some of the monies, and all of the credit.

My Commentary: The North American economy can be called a lot of things… “Free market” is NOT one of them!

Mainstream Media Admits It May “Never Recover” from 2016 Election:
http://theantimedia.org/mainstream-media-admits-never-recover-2016-election/

(Carey Wedler) In a revealing statement that flew largely under the radar earlier this month, the mainstream media admitted it would never recover from its irresponsible and negligent coverage of the 2016 presidential election. A recent column published in the New York Post referred to the media’s reporting as “the complete collapse of American journalism as we know it.”

In his article for the Post, Fox News contributor Michael Goodwin discussed the media’s pro-Clinton bias – one recognized by supporters of virtually every other presidential candidate, from Bernie Sanders to Jill Stein to Gary Johnson and, of course, Donald Trump. Even Americans who don’t necessarily have a horse in the 2016 race notice the slant.

My Commentary: Less and less are believing in the lies of these spin doctors…
