As the fate of Obamacare slowly rolls its way toward the Supreme Court, it is time to remember that the most important man in America today is Justice Anthony Kennedy. With his swing vote he will decide the fortune of Obamacare, and either allow similar twisted legislation to become law in the future, or stop […]
Snowy Winter
It’s been a hard winter in the North East. Our friends and family up there have been telling us stories of the snowfall. Here are some pictures from Marra in Portland, Connecticut. Marra wrote “The winter here has been so brutal I can’t even describe it. We have had over 55″ of snow, a storm every […]
Start Cutting With Obamacare
In a speech about his budget balancing plan Rand Paul says “People in official Washington think this a pretty bold, maybe overly bold, proposition. But it only cuts about a third of the annual deficit.” He’s right, people in Washington do think it’s bold, and that’s a big problem. They don’t think inflating the budget […]
Obamacare Repeal Fails
Do you remember, back in 2009 when all of America turned to the election of Scott Brown to the Senate from Massachusetts? Then state-senator Brown promised to be the 41st vote against Obamacare, stopping it in its tracks and delivering a death blow to the bill that few in the country wanted to see pass. […]
After Egypt
The Wall Street Journal reports that Hosni Mubarak gave his Minister of the Interior an order to use live ammunition to disperse crowds of protesters. Nothing could be more damning for Mr. Mubarak. Asking his police to shoot and kill his own people is unforgiveable. No one wants to see chaos in Egypt. But the […]
Obamacare Unconstitutional, Again
Yesterday the ruling came down from Judge Roger Vinson in a Florida federal court that the individual mandate is unconstitutional and that if the Supreme Court agrees, the whole law must be nullified. This decision puts into stark relief something I have been writing for a long time now, that Justice Anthony Kennedy is the […]
Ethanol for Newt
According to the staff of Congressman Paul Ryan, the budget deficit is poised to increase to $1.48 trillion from $1.416 trillion even when a projected $66 billion more will be raised in tax revenues from 2010 to 2011. In other words, the president’s budget is getting more money, and spending it faster than it did […]
A Focus on Long Term Price Stability
John Taylor, writing at the Wall Street Journal, has come out in support of an idea that has been floated by many conservative economic thinkers (and here on this website), that the Federal Reserve ought not to be focused on multiple monetary policy goals, and instead ought to be directing its efforts solely to maintaining […]
Sacred Cows to the Slaughter
An Obama administration official, the administration’s chief expert on Medicare and Medicaid spending, Chief Actuary Richard Foster, has said that Obamacare will not hold costs down, or allow Americans to keep the health insurance they currently have. Both key promises of the bill. Where was this admission two years ago when the president’s team was […]
State of the Union: The Same Old Song
“You’re sweet as a honey bee, But like a honey bee stings, You’ve gone and left, my heart in pain, All you left is our favorite song, The one we danced to all night long, It used to bring sweet memories, Of a tender love that used to be, Now it’s the same old song” […]
