Rand Paul Says No More Tax Dollars To Planned Parenthood
by Robert Herriman. After the release of the chilling and quite gruesome Center for Medical Progress video earlier this week (see full video and transcript below) , which exposed Planned Parenthood’s ghoulish side gig from their already abhorrent abortion numbers of selling fetal organs and tissue, many in the Congress reacted negatively to it. ... MORELet’s Be Two Americas: The Case for Federalism
by Robert Tracinski. There has been some haggling in Congress recently over a proposal to convert a couple of big chunks of federal spending—Medicaid and food stamps—into block grants to the states, which would be given more control over the programs. This proposal suggests a much broader answer to our current political conflicts, toward ... MOREHow Government Money Effects Climate Change Opinion
by Patrick J Michaels & Paul C "Chip" Knappenberger. In our post last week titled “Climate Alarmism: When is this Bozo Going Down?” we described how new research increasingly casts doubt on the validity of climate models and their projections of future climate change. It is increasing clear that climate models simply predict too much ... MOREGovernment Studies Why Obese Girls Don't Get Much Sex
by Casey Harper. Anyone have a theory? While most Americans put on a few pounds for Thanksgiving, the federal government has been spending hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars researching why obese girls don’t have sex. The National Institute for Health grant allocated $466,642 to the Magee-Women’s Research Institute to study the sexual ... MOREAnother Federal Grant To Fund Warrantless Searches
Cops get seed money to troll for violators. Taxpayers fund their own harassment. The California Highway Patrol (CHP) has received a federal “Reducing

DUI task force operations, proactive DUI enforcement patrols through
September 30, 2015, and at least 100 safety ... MOREVeronique de Rugy: Get States Off The Federal Dole
Stop the growth of government. In the wake of Hurricane Sandy and the havoc it wrought on New
York, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) said

Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) asked the same for the Garden State. ... MORE
Walter E Williams: Too Much College
College for all just waters down higher education. In President Barack Obama's 2012 State of the Union address, he said that "higher education can't be a luxury. It is an economic imperative that every family in America should be able to afford." Such talk makes for political points, but there's no evidence that a college education is an economic ... MORE

MOREBob Aldelmann: Each Chevy Volt Costs Taxpayers $250,000
Green policy = wasting the green from citizen wallets. The Mackinac Center for Public Policy just released a study showing that by the time all federal and state loans, grants, subsidies, and tax credits are figured in, each Chevy Volt costs taxpayers upwards of $250,000. James Hohman, the center’s assistant director of fiscal policy, counted a total of 18 ... MOREKarin McQuillan: Scientific Revolt Against Global Warming
Global warming "consensus" losing ground. Global warming became a cause to save life on earth before it had a chance to become good science. The belief that fossil fuel use is an emergency destroying our planet by CO2 emissions took over the media and political arena by storm. The issue was politicized so quickly that the normal scientific process was stunted. ... MORE
