  1. Oh goody. Now the #facist #cato institute is also soliciting money from me. I guess the thinking is that if you have enough to give to any political cause, both sides want to play you - on the assumption that both sides are going to look out for the well off at the expense of everyone else. The really rich have bought politicians for years by contributing across the aisle. I guess this is trickle down graft.

  2. Consider in silence whatever anyone says: speech both conceals and reveals the inner soul of man.

  3. Immigrants are carrying this country on their backs while the right screams into the void.

    Here’s the #Cato Institute report:

  4. The US #immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023.

    The #Cato study provides the first-ever 30-year analysis of the fiscal effects of immigration on government budgets.

  5. @julf @cstross Allison was an #AynRand fan, sure — he would give out copies of “Atlas Shrugged” to employees, even. But just because he jumped to #Cato doesn’t make Cato “linked” to ARI.

    ARI's mission is to advocate Rand’s full philosophy of #Objectivism as a whole system, not just politics. Rand herself blasted #libertarianism for reducing her ideas.

    Allison’s stint at Cato reflects the same mistake that libertarians make in using Rand to justify their politics. It has nothing to do with ARI.

  6. @jerry just call it the uni party - the entire thing is a floating dumpster fire and that is being fair but it is not so much the parties they are just reflections of how truly fscked up our society is - the problems and issues run deeper than we can really appreciate. I am not surprised they are resorting to social engineering - it works #cato institute

  7. Consider it the greatest of all virtues to restrain the tongue.

    States Rights, say Republicans historically, protects against an over reaching federal puppy killing loon.

    Noem's federal government is a State Rights Killer Too.

    #cato #maga #nra are all cowardly hypocrites of the #coup

  10. Heads up for people who like their games a little silly and weird, but with a smart challenge. #CATO: Buttered Cat very quickly makes a positive impression on several levels and will be available on the #Switch eShop next week!

  11. @dangillmor We all need to stand together against . I lean libertarian (NOT Mises Caucus libertarian), so I'm a long-time fan of the Institute. What's happening now is bigger than political issues like taxes, healthcare, the environment, programs for the poor, infrastructure, etc. If I understand what's happening, America is under direct attack from fascism.
