Dain Fitzgerald's Columns

Immigrants, Immigration and Their Enemies

"What better way to minimize the recurrence of war and strife worldwide than to increase peaceful transnational integration of all kinds? Perhaps Laura Ingraham could take Frederic Bastiat’s maxim to heart, but with a twist: 'When people don’t cross borders, global ignorance will'."  Column by Dain Fitzgerald.

The Myths of Home Schooling

And the inferiority of state education.  Column by Dain Fitzgerald.

What Is the Euphemism for Censorship?

"Language is a dynamic thing that can be used in so many different ways and in combination with so many other modes of communication that to attempt to 'socially engineer' people by altering it is utterly futile."  Column by Dain Fitzgerald.

America's Economic Strangulation of Africa

"America ’s continued financial support and approval of despised governments in places like Nigeria help drag out the life span of an inefficient state schooling apparatus. Just as in subsidies to farmers, redirection of stolen money to overseas regimes only serves to encroach on an otherwise wide-open and discretionary market for goods."  Column by Dain Fitzgerald.

Right-Libertarianism's Image Problem

"It isn’t so much government power that bothers many people who deride the Bush administration as it is his archaic conservatism. Keeping your guns, teaching your children from home or placing them in a non-public school is just too rural, too white, and too crazy."  Column by new Root Striker Dain Fitzgerald.
