Four more states to reform pot laws in 2013. It's been only two months since Washington and Colorado voters
legalized recreational marijuana, but the advocates who raised
millions to pass Amendment 64 and Initiative 502 aren't wasting
time celebrating. In addition to helping craft the rules and
regulations in the Centennial and Evergreen ... MOREMike Riggs: The Pot Reform Movement Picks Up Speed
Four more states to reform pot laws in 2013. It's been only two months since Washington and Colorado voters
legalized recreational marijuana, but the advocates who raised
millions to pass Amendment 64 and Initiative 502 aren't wasting
time celebrating. In addition to helping craft the rules and

Busybodies minding your own business. Will it be permits for strippers or prison for smokers?
Devin Brian: Price Gouging On Guns?
Where is the outrage? Every time there is a natural disaster of some sort, gas station owners
are considered monstrous for raising prices to coincide with increased
demand of their scarce resources. However, I have not heard anyone
calling for the immediate lynching of those greedy gun shop owners who
have doubled or even tripled prices on ... MOREDonald Lambro: Economy Progresses Downward
Americans re-elected this recession. When millions of voters went to the polls in November to narrowly re-elect Barack Obama, the economy was rapidly shrinking toward recessionary levels. In the last three months of 2012, the gross domestic product — the
measurement of everything America produces — fell to an annualized rate
of 0.1 percent, the ... MORETibor Machan: On Rape And Pragmatism
Principles in the age of the pragmatist. Something not often noted in the discussion of rape across the globe is that in an age that prizes pragmatism
as opposed to firm principles of conduct, even rape can be excused
based on the expected benefit to the rapist versus injury to the victim. If one doesn't care about the basic principle of consent, ... MOREJohn Harvey: Trusting Your Own Government (Or Not)
The masters who pose as servants. Earlier this month, Geraldo Rivera asked a caller: "How could you not trust your own government?"

MOREWalker Baird: It Is Time To Reclassify Marijuana
Introducing common sense to American drug policy. Recent voting in Colorado and Washington exposes a striking discrepancy in the national legal status of marijuana. Under current federal law,
marijuana is classified as a Schedule I Controlled Substance, which
places it in the same category as heroin, peyote, LSD and Ecstasy. To be
qualified as a ... MOREJillian Kay Melchoir: The EPA Vs. Reality
Push toward cellulosic biofuel is out of control. The Environmental Protection Agency has been demanding the impossible of refiners and then penalizing them when they fail to comply. A new ruling from a federal appeals court stops this shakedown. For the past few years, the EPA has required refiners to purchase vast quantities of cellulosic biofuel, ... MOREDavid Harsanyi: Stagnation, The New Normal
The only growth is in Obama's popularity. So, U.S. consumer confidence unexpectedly plunged in January to its lowest level in more than a year. The U.S. economy unexpectedly posted a contraction in the fourth quarter of 2012 -- for the first time since the recession -- "defying" expectations that economic growth is in our future. If the ... MOREJohn Stossel: Obama Is Not King
A dangerous agenda putting the country at risk. Watching President Obama’s inaugural, I was confused. It looked like a new king was being crowned. Thousands cheered, like subjects worshipping nobility. At a time when America faces unsustainable debt and terrible economic troubles, why such pomp? Maybe it’s because so many people tell ... MORE
