No matter who wins, we will stay overextended overseas. It’s hard to remember through the fog of constant war, but the
2008 presidential election was a contest between two candidates who
were propelled into their nominations by the anti-war vote. Barack Obama, we remember. He was the one who opposed the Iraq war in real ... MOREThomas Sowell: Phony In Chief
True believers may not want to know the truth. When President Barack Obama and others on the left are not busy
admonishing the rest of us to be "civil" in our discussions of political
issues, they are busy letting loose insults, accusations and smears
against those who dare to disagree with them. Like so many people who have been beaten in a verbal ... MOREBob Weir: Speed Traps Are Not Proper Enforcement
Deploying cops to squeeze money out of citizens. Let me begin by saying something I learned a long time ago as a cop in New York City; you will never make someone happy by giving him/her a traffic ticket. It doesn’t matter if you catch someone driving 20 miles over the speed limit, or you stop someone for driving an unregistered and uninspected vehicle. ... MOREDavid Rosen: Big Brother Invades Our Classrooms
Frightening new methods monitor students. The digital tracking and surveillance of school-aged kids has been growing. Much attention has been given to the phenomenon of corporate tracking of kids’ online activities, activities that violate the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). The law, originally adopted in 1998, requires Web sites ... MOREJennifer Waters: Right To Sell Your Own Stuff Is In Peril
It could even become illegal to resell almost anything. Tucked into the U.S. Supreme Court’s agenda this fall is a little-known case that could upend your ability to resell everything from your grandmother’s antique furniture to your iPhone 4. At issue in Kirtsaeng v. John Wiley & Sons is the first-sale doctrine in copyright law, which allows you to ... MOREJohn Tamny: Why Atlas Shrugged Part II Is A Must-See Film
Who is John Galt? For those lucky enough to have read Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged,
they know well that it has a timeless quality to it. Most readers feel,
and with good reason, that a book from the 1950s was actually written
at the time and place in which they’re reading it. A college friend from Semester at Sea sent me his worn copy in ... MOREHou-Yin Chang: Minimum Wage Should Be Lowered
Let the people work even if unions don't like it. Liberals lack understanding of the minimum wage and the continuing current economic crisis. A study at the University of North Carolina states minimum wage regulations benefit unions at the expense of the entry-level jobs that young workers usually take. Wage floors limit the ability of ...

Lanny Ebenstein: What Would Milton Friedman Do?
Allowing Americans the freedom to choose. The question is frequently asked what economist Milton Friedman would
recommend regarding the economy if he were alive today. There can be
little question that, were he alive, Friedman would endorse the policies
he did throughout his career: less government spending, less ... MOREGlenn Greenwald: The Illusion Of Choice
The issue is how much they agree. Wednesday night's debate between Barack Obama and Mitt Romney underscored a core truth about America's presidential election season: the vast majority of the most consequential policy questions are completely excluded from the process. This fact is squarely at odds with a primary claim made about ... MOREMotivating Youth To Watch Presidential Debates
by Katie Kieffer. Hit the gym; grab dinner with friends; build a bonfire. These are three evening activities I prefer to watching presidential debates—and I am a political commentator. Few young people watch presidential debates and I understand why. After Wednesday’s initial presidential debate, I realized that Republicans are failing to exploit the debates and ... MORERegulation Led To California's Gas Price Nightmare
Prices surge thanks to EPA bureaucrats. Gas prices have exploded in California, surging 50 cents per gallon in just one week to an all-time high of $4.614. The state's gas supply has been squeezed by refinery outages as well as EPA requirements that prevent certain blends of gasoline from being sold before November. However, the LA ... MORESam Patterson: Crony Capitalism Hits Uber Small Business
Suppressing competition for political interests. The upstart car service Uber offers customers in major cities such as
Chicago, San Francisco and Washington a smartphone app to call for a
car. It’s an innovative idea that many residents love, but not everyone
is excited about the new service. The D.C. Taxicab Commissioner declared ... MORE
Top 10 Obama Anti-Business, Anti-Job Actions

That may be true, but his wrong-headed policies have only made matters
worse, taking actions that hurt businesses and stunt job growth. 1. Obamacare costs Obamacare will impose a new cost on many small businesses that
currently do not provide health ... MORECharles Kennedy: EPA Regulation Squelch US Coal Industry
The EPA forces through their agenda. A group of economists at the Brattle Group have just released a report that studies the impact of the Environmental Protection Agency’s
(EPA) air regulations on coal fired power plants. The findings predict
that between 59,000 and 77,000MW capacity of coal power plants will be
