We had something closer to that before Obamacare . It wasn't going well. In the case of healthcare, I don't think the distortion comes primarily...
So you think the marketplace for healthcare is reasonably efficient then? In general, I'm a big believer in markets. In fact, I don't want...
A national cry? I suppose it would be cathartic to get in a good cry. And, maybe a group hug after that?
Lol. Reminds me of a euphemism our HR guy likes to use -- he says sometimes he has to ask employees to pursue excellence elsewhere. :D
To be realpolitik for a moment here, Pop is a white coach in a black-dominated sports league. By taking an abrasive outspoken stand on racism in...
I kinda like this infrastructure approach. The money is all taxpayer money. But, when 50% or 80% comes from the federal government, the feds get...

The other shoe to drop on federal tax reform is that states are going to have to rejigger their taxes to accommodate it. State income taxes...
How does the size of this increase compare with the cuts in sequestration under Obama?
I understand the Republican aversion to domestic spending. What I have not understood is the feeling among Republicans that we need to spend more...
On topic, some folks are getting rich this week off of all the volatility.
Republicans aren't any more unified. You had a consortium of fiscal conservatives and evangelicals, with some libertarian hangers-on. Then tea...
