Deep Corruption At The Obama Justice Department
by Quin Hillyer. Start rattling the chains. Start ratcheting up the hue and cry. Fire up the masses. It's long past time to force mass resignations at, and possible prosecutions of members of, the Obama Justice Department -- and, more broadly, of the West Wing itself. Forgive all the links, but the scope of the corruption is so large as to defy adequate descriptions, in a single ... MOREA. Barton Hinkle: The Renewable Energy Boondoggle
The truth about wind and solar power. Last month Glen Besa, the director of the Sierra Club's Virginia chapter, rebuked Dominion Virginia Power for failing to "jump-start the clean, renewable energy industry in Virginia. ... Offshore wind, which is plentiful off Virginia's coast, could create 10,000 jobs in the commonwealth. It is time for Dominion to make major investments ... MOREThomas Sowell: Back To The Future
Part I Part II Part III Those who are impressed by words seem to think that President Barack Obama made a great speech to Congress last week. But, when you look beyond the rhetoric, what did he say that was fundamentally different from what he has been saying and doing all along? Are we to continue doing the same kinds of things that have failed again and again, just because ... MOREJacob Sullum: You Say 'Ponzi Scheme,' I Say Fraud
A distinction without a difference. At the Republican presidential debate in Tampa on Monday night, Mitt Romney said Rick Perry has needlessly "scared seniors" by calling Social Security "a Ponzi scheme." Romney, more sensitive to the anxieties of retirees, prefers to say "the American people have been effectively defrauded out of their ... MOREJon N Hall: Inequality -- It's A Good Thing
The conflict between liberty and equality. Equality is the highest value of the American political left. So the left is always on the lookout for any trace of inequality. And of course they find it -- everywhere. That's because equality doesn't exist in this world, except when we get down on the micro level. On the micro level of quarks, electrons, photons, and such, equality reigns ... MOREGary Johnson: The Invisible Man Running For President
Why does the media shut him out? The 2012 race for the GOP nomination has been raging lately. With the entrance of Rick Perry, many media outlets are becoming increasingly excited over the novelty of a new candidate. What about the novelty of unique ideas? Governor Gary Johnson has been running for President since April 21st. He was in the first Republican debate on ... MOREWalter E Williams: Too Much Higher Education
Just think about it. Too much of anything is just as much a misallocation of resources as it is too little, and that applies to higher education just as it applies to everything else. A recent study from The Center for College Affordability and Productivity titled "From Wall Street to Wal-Mart," by Richard Vedder, Christopher Denhart, Matthew Denhart, Christopher ... MOREIra Stoll: The Poverty Of Nations
Politics of hope are better than its reality. On September 13 at 10 a.m., the Census Bureau will release its annual report for 2010 on “Income, Poverty, and Health Insurance Coverage in the United States,” and, to judge by the way the bureau is handling the announcement, it’s going to be less than smashingly good news. “There will be no physical event,” the bureau’s advisory to ...
