Separate Tech and State
11/28/22 - By Ron Paul

Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) recently got in touch with his inner mobster and threatened Elon Musk — the new owner of Twitter and the CEO of electric car company Tesla and space ventures company SpaceX. He told Musk, “Fix your companies” or “Congress will.” As part of this threat, Markey referred to an ongoing National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) investigation into Tesla’s autopilot driving system and Twitter’s 2011 consent decree with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).

What Could Make the Constitution a PERFECT Document?
11/28/22 - By David Rehak

I'm certainly not opposed to the Constitution. The Constitution of the United States and the Bill of Rights is an almost perfect document, better than any other, and whoever wishes to see all these good and noble things about it can easily access and read it online. But there are a few specific things which it would be well to add, delete, or change to improve it substantially, and quite possibly, make it the very best it can possibly be.

Can a Deeply Unserious America Fix Its Economy?
11/23/22 - By Jeff Deist

Does America simply lack the political will to face economic reality?

In the teeth of the Depression, Treasury secretary Andrew Mellon famously told President Herbert Hoover to “liquidate labor, liquidate stocks, liquidate farmers, liquidate real estate”—in other words, to resist bailing out any industry through state intervention. This was a tough sell even in those days, and of course Hoover succumbed to politics and took the opposite approach, greatly and needlessly damaging the US economy for decades to come.

First Class TSA Practices Must Go
11/21/22 - By Walter E. Block

I recently travelled from New Orleans to Lake Jackson, Texas.

One thing struck me as I contemplated this trip. Should I drive instead? True, it would take about a six-hours by car, but when you add up all the modern air travel hassles – the demand that you arrive there two and sometimes even three hours before take-off, the groping, the compulsory masking (well, they’ve lightened up on that a bit, but who knows for how long), picking up and then dropping off a rental car, an entirely different aggravation– it is a close call. I suppose I’m a masochist, and a lazy one, since I chose air travel.

Is Washington’s Dangerous Ukraine Boondoggle Starting to Unravel?
11/21/22 - By Ron Paul

Last week the world stood on the very edge of a nuclear war, as Ukraine’s US-funded president, Vladimir Zelensky, urged NATO military action over a missile that landed on Polish soil. "This is a Russian missile attack on collective security! This is a really significant escalation. Action is needed," said Zelensky immediately after the missile landed.

“Stimulation”, not the Cure for Inflation!
11/14/22 - By Stratton J. Davis

There is one characteristic common in Americans that may ensure their doom in the fight against the current inflation they are facing: their own willful ignorance. While it has been stressed by many (including this author) that economic shutdowns imposed by the Federal and State governments, along with historic mass money printing by the Federal Reserve during the CoronaVirus hysteria were the main catalysts for the inflation we have today, another driving factor for this current inflation has been largely ignored: the stimulus checks.

A Tale of Two Midterms
11/14/22 - By Ron Paul

Those searching for an explanation of why there was no “red wave” giving Republicans huge gains in Congress in this year’s midterm election should compare this year’s election with the midterm election of 2010. In 2010, Republicans gained a net 63 House seats. While Republicans then did not gain control of the US Senate, they did gain six Senate seats.
