Step aside, AT&T and Verizon. Nicholas Merrill is planning to revolutionize online privacy with a concept as simple as it is ingenious: a telecommunications provider designed from its inception to shield its customers from surveillance. Merrill, 39, who previously ran a New York-based Internet provider, told CNET that he's raising funds to launch a ... MOREDeclan McCullagh: Internet Provider Pledges Privacy First

Stop doing business with them. Let’s stipulate: Activists on the left are free to exercise their rights of speech and assembly to boycott businesses whose politics they oppose. Conversely, activists on the right are free to exercise the power of their pocketbooks and refrain from supporting businesses that shun their values. So, what are you waiting for ... MOREWashington Times: A Streetcar Named Debt
Rail projects highlight out-of-control spending priorities. The District on Friday completed the first phase of testing for its $1.5 billion streetcar project. The nation’s capital joins big cities like Los Angeles in advancing the revival of a transportation option that has been obsolete for more than half a century. The Obama administration is spearheading the ... MOREDunn & Milloy: A Strategy To Stop EPA Science Abuse
Promoting unjustified concerns and panics. There is a way to stop the EPA's abuse of science and prevent their continued aggressive regulatory activity that destroys the economy and causes harm to Americans. Primarily, we have to hold the EPA to good scientific principles and stop the EPA's overreaching and panic mongering. The method ... MOREThomas Sowell: Random Thoughts On The Passing Scene
Insights and observations from a brilliant mind. How long do politicians have to keep on promising heaven and delivering hell before people catch on, and stop getting swept away by rhetoric?

Jeffrey Folks: Is EPA Just Sloppy Or Cooking The Books?
Perverting science to attain a "higher" political end. After issuing a hastily compiled report last year claiming a direct link between groundwater contamination and hydraulic fracturing at Pavillion, Wyoming, the EPA now admits that it may be wrong. Or, it may be, it was intentionally cooking the books. The only question now is whether the findings ... MOREJack Hunter: ObamaCare And The Imaginary Constitution
Lawmakers see Constitution as irrelevant. Sensing that there’s a good chance the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act — commonly known as “Obamacare” — will be overturned by the Supreme Court, President Obama said recently: “I’d just remind conservative commentators that for years what we’ve heard is the biggest problem on the bench was judicial activism ... MOREMatt Welch: Why Big Government Is Offensive
The increasingly invasive activities of the state stinks. I was hoping to make it through life without hearing television commentators repeatedly utter the word transvaginal. Yet that intimate territory is where the country headed in February, and it is where we will increasingly return as long as the government keeps assuming a greater role in our private ... MOREWalter E Williams: Media Dishonesty And Race Hustlers
Inflaming passions to push a self-serving agenda. When NBC's "Today" show played the audio of George Zimmerman's call to a Sanford, Fla., police dispatcher about Trayvon Martin, the editors made him appear to be a racist who says: "This guy looks like he's up to no good. He looks black." What Zimmerman actually said was: "This guy looks like he's up to no good ... MOREVIDEO: John Stossel - Technically, That's Illegal

Debra Saunders: Obama, The Happy Drug Warrior
The president's war against the states. Why is the federal government under President Obama arguably tougher on medical marijuana operations than it was under George W. Bush? That's the question that antidrug-war groups have been asking themselves for months. In 2008, antiprohibitionists thought an Obama administration would not tread on medical-marijuana ... MOREJonah Goldberg: Very Few Of The Above
Obama's energy policy is rather picky. In his speech before the Newspapers Association of America/American Society of News Editors Wednesday, likely GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney accused the president of changing positions to get reelected.
