Thank goodness our human rights commissions are on the job. Thanks to them , bar owners who charge women less for drinks than men will soon be forced to end this sordid, discriminatory, and—ugh!—sexist practice. Please don’t write me asking me if I’ve given up on the libertarian ideal of free association. I have not. I’m only kidding when I welcome this initiative of the evil state’s. (Thanks to Fima Shimel for alerting me to this recent example of a rights violation.)
