Trips for Judges

What do judges get for a FREE weekend or more in paradise?

In return for these perquisites, judges attend lectures that, in FREE's words, “emphasiz[e] property rights, market processes and responsible liberty.” Lecture topics at FREE seminars include: “Takings: Property, Environment and the Constitution;” ”Liberty and the Environment: A Case for Principled Judicial Activism;” “The Demise of Environmental Values in Environmental Law” and “The Environment – A CEO's Perspective.”

Small wonder this sounds so much like our trio of terrible initiatives.
