A. Barton Hinkle: Disturbing Agenda of Occupy Wall Street

Protestors are wrong to favor forced equality over liberty. The Occupy Wall Street (OWS) movement, obsessed with fairness, has benefitted from the lack of it. The protesters don't think so—but that is because many of them have not thought enough. The demonstrators resent disparity. So consider the disparity in coverage of OWS and the Tea Party. A single ... MORE

Robert M Goldberg: Obama Orders Drug Shortages

Misguided executive order will hurt Americans. With much fanfare and media attention, President Obama signed an executive order instructing the FDA to step up work to reduce current drug shortages and protect consumers. It's hard to argue with exercising presidential leadership to ensure cancer patients don't die waiting for drugs that could save their lives.  ... MORE

Joe Palazzolo: The Budding War Against Big Food


Addicted to Coke ... and suing Coca-Cola?   Our colleagues Ashby Jones and Shirley Wang had a great story over the weekend about mothers and fathers in custody lawsuits increasingly hurling accusations at each other about the nutrition and obesity of their children. They are using the obesity issue in an attempt to persuade judges that their kids are ... MORE

Gary Gibson: Why You Should Remember November 5th


Of whiskey and gunpowder.   As soon as the noose settled around his neck, Guy Fawkes broke free from the hangman and jumped off the scaffolding — guaranteeing a quick drop with a stop sharp enough to break his neck cleanly… It seems like an odd result for a man to be in such a hurry to get to, at least until you consider the alternative. In a way, it’s an early example ... MORE

HOPE AND CHANGE DEPT: Obama Fails All Viability Tests

By Dr. David Hill.  Last week’s column asserting that the president is unelectable has triggered strong responses. Democrats, in particular, seem to think my judgment is premature. It strikes them as ridiculous that anyone could make such a “bold prediction” so far in advance of the 2012 election. Hey, that’s what we do, as seasoned political professionals, as  ... MORE

John Stossel: The Stupidity Of "Buy American"

The case against economic protectionism.  One sign of economic ignorance is the faith that "Buy American" is the path to prosperity. My former employer, ABC News, did a week's worth of stories claiming that "buying American" would put Americans back to work. I'm glad I don't work there anymore."Buy American" is a dumb idea. It would not only not create ... MORE

Andrew Napolitano: Buying Fascism With Your Tax Dollars

Look what the government has done with your money! The federal government has lost another 72 million of your tax dollars.

Candidly, before the announcement of its ... MORE
