Why Do the Taxpayers Have to Support Professional Sports? by Future of Freedom Foundation April 27, 2010 No sooner did Wayne Huizinga's Florida Marlins win the World Series than he repeated his hope that the city of Miami would build the team a new baseball park. Huizinga is a successful businessman who is convinced that the city will not finance the park if he is connected with the team. So he is willing to sell his World Champions if necessary to ensure that the park is built. The belief that the taxpayers should pay for professional sports facilities is a rather dramatic illustration of how far we have drifted from the founding ideals of this country. The prevailing view at the time of the founding was the government should do little more than keep the domestic peace and protect against foreign aggression. Otherwise, people were ...

Do Presidents Have the Right to Kill? by Future of Freedom Foundation April 27, 2010 Should the president of the United States be exempt from both American and international law? Few people would instinctively say yes. But, in actual practice, presidents of the United States have been legally untouchable for most of the past century for the foreign killings they ordered. Even when their orders resulted in the killing of vast numbers of innocent people, it was almost never suggested in this country that the president should face charges for war crimes. That was true when Woodward Wilson intervened in Mexico and Haiti, and it was true of Republican interventions throughout Latin America in the 1920s. Franklin Roosevelt approved the carpet bombing of German and Japanese cities, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of women and children. Harry Truman approved the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. But ...
