Mike Gathers on "Men's Work."

"Perhaps we debated the libertarians too vigorously, and too well. Now I find myself wishing we had them back." (Noah Smith). 

New Ada Palmer book. 

Tyler Cowen defends online life.  This hits home for me, it was through the Internet I met other RAW fanatics and also other Epicureans.

Bryan Caplan wonders why leftists hate Charles Koch as much as they hate Trump. Excerpt: "In starkest contrast, whatever you think about Trump’s ideas, he is obviously an absolute pig of a human being. To paraphrase Tolkien’s Treebeard, 'There is no curse in Elvish, Entish, or the tongues of Men' to describe how loathsome the man is. The way he talks! The way he treats people! If a family of staunch Trump supporters contained a person who acted like Trump, he wouldn’t even be allowed to come to Thanksgiving."
