Biden’s pandemic-era Obamacare premium subsidies were sold as temporary relief but have instead produced fraud, phantom enrollees, and subsidies for wealthy taxpayers who don’t need them.

I recently wrote a short essay titled “Moral Realism and Anti-Realism vs. the Metaethics of Life,” which is a tad more technical than what we typically publish in The Objective Standard. So I published it on my personal Substack, Thinking in Principles. But I want to bring it to your attention in case you might be interested.

If you’re familiar with Ayn Rand’s conceptualization of the three schools of thought regarding the nature of the good—the intrinsic, the subjective, and the objective—then you have a head start on the subject. My essay examines these basic alternatives in the context of the categories and classifications used in today’s academic circles and among popular philosophers. It amounts to a plea for conceptual clarity.

You can read the essay here. I hope you enjoy it!

"Jacinda Ardern, the former prime minister of New Zealand, is reportedly in the running to be the next UN secretary-general. Rarely has a person seemed so suited for a job: an overpraised politician with no ability leading an ineffective organisation with no accountability."

~ Hugo Timms from his op-ed 'Jacinda Ardern leading the UN? God help us'
