Trump is right to waive the Jones Act. Congress should eliminate it entirely

The Iran war has caused “the largest supply disruption in the history of the global oil market,” according to the International Energy Agency. As the Trump administration seeks to reduce oil prices, which have risen in the United States more than 40% since the start of Operation Epic Fury, it has rightfully waived an antiquated […]

Three reasons Trump should end ambulance loophole in California

Vice President JD Vance and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Administrator Mehmet Oz have promised to crack down on Medicaid fraud and waste. The administration’s new Comprehensive Regulations to Uncover Suspicious Healthcare initiative aims to strengthen oversight and stop schemes that divert taxpayer dollars from vulnerable patients. Vance and Oz not only have the […]

Iran — whose decision is it?

When is an enemy threat imminent? Once the button has been pushed and a missile is on the way? That is obviously too late. Does potentiality blossom into imminence when a nuclear warhead is being loaded at the launch site? Too late again. Why should a target nation wait until it’ll take luck in addition […]

I was trafficked, abused, and raped. Government shouldn’t stop me from helping women

I serve as the executive director of two pregnancy resource centers, one in Vermont and the other in Massachusetts. But that is not where my story begins. My story begins in darkness. From the age of 2 until I was 29, I was trafficked in 33 states across this country, which included being bought and […]

India will likely escape the middle-income trap

The South Asian nation of India is a rising economic superpower. With a little luck, it will become a wealthy country by August 2047, the 100th anniversary of its independence. India’s growth record over the past 20-plus years is impressive. On average, since 2003, the economy has expanded by over 7% each year. If the […]

A glimmer of hope for Hollywood at the Academy Awards

Denigrating traditional family roles is so popular in Hollywood that any praise for them is both shocking and refreshing by comparison. During Sunday’s Academy Awards, motherhood received some overdue applause. Jessie Buckley, an Irish actress, won for her role in the critically acclaimed movie Hamnet. She played Anne Hathaway, William Shakespeare’s wife. The story revolves around the couple […]

One last Biden FTC lawsuit threatens bulk discounts Americans depend on

For millions of people trying to stretch a paycheck, warehouse stores such as Costco and Sam’s Club are lifelines. Families rely on bulk discounts to keep grocery bills manageable and household costs under control. With many progressive Democrats willing to accept as much, one lingering case from the Biden administration’s Federal Trade Commission threatens the […]

To defend the Strait of Hormuz, it might pay to have some friends

Unsurprisingly, the Strait of Hormuz has become central to the war with Iran. Prior to the war, millions of barrels of oil would pass through this narrow waterway — which lies along the southern coast of Iran between the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman — on a daily basis. But now, under the […]

Iran war’s effect on interest remains a looming unknown

For a second meeting in a row, the Federal Reserve has decided to keep the benchmark interest rate constant, which directly influences short-term interest rates throughout the economy. The Fed decided March 18 to leave the federal funds rate as is, with no imminent sign of another cut to come. But if anything, Fed Chairman […]

The Iran war has already failed

The consensus is clear. President Donald Trump, the pundits say, has trapped himself in a pointless war in Iran. He is, we are told, thrashing about blindly and blaming everyone but himself. At least Israel has war aims, even if they differ from America’s. The United States, by contrast, is shooting in the dark. I […]
