Out from under the thumb
I’ve been on vacation for a few weeks, and one of the things that happened in my absence is that the British voted to leave the European Union. It was a historic vote, and its effects will be felt for quite some time, but in essence it was a victory for small(er) government over yet another layer of massive, unthinking bureaucracy. I’ll explain why.
And I’ll touch on a few of the other events of the recent past, as well.

I’ve been on vacation for a while, which is why no episodes the past few weeks. And so much has happened during that time.
