The e with a promise that a pair will be distributed in the underdeveloped world each time a pair is purchased. The same is true of Warby Parker glasses.

The Free-Market Case Against Big Business
“The most dangerous enemies of capitalism today are capitalists,” says Timothy P. Carney. “This is ing clearer every day to mitted to free markets.” The conservative and libertarian grassroots came to deeply distrust big business after the Wall Street bailouts and Obama’s stimulus and health care bills, both of which had big-business backing.

God Has Set Eternity in the Human Heart
The Preacher says that God “has set eternity in the human heart” (Ecclesiastes 3:11 NIV). This is within the broader context of his discussion of the paradox of exploring the wonder of God’s creation and the vanity of human striving in a fallen world.

The Economic Analogy of Michael Jordan
Much has been made of e inequality in the United States this election season. e inequality exists in the United States, more so than almost any other developed nation. Around sixty years ago, America’s Gini coefficient–the best measure of e equality, where zero represents the least inequality and one the most–was .37. Today, it is .45. These numbers are startling, especially for a country that so proudly proclaims all men to be “created equal.” But, as Matthew Schoenfeld points out...
