Federally fueled hospital drug sales must be reformed

The Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee held a hearing last month examining the 340B drug discount program. A recurring line of questioning centered on whether 340B assistance is actually going to those most in need. At the University of Southern California Schaeffer Center for Health Policy & Economics, we recently uncovered how the 340B drug discount program, […]

Trump says he’s ‘working to make things less expensive’

EXCLUSIVE — In a wide-ranging Oval Office interview, President Donald Trump said that for a U.S. president, “there is never a finish line” on major challenges, especially when it comes to undoing the damage the previous administration left behind. He said the economy, which he “relentlessly” prioritizes, is a prime example, even as Democrats deploy […]

Trump’s pro-vaccine, pro-freedom message could restore public trust in shots

Americans’ trust in vaccines is at a historic low. Only about 40% of people now consider childhood vaccines “extremely important,” down from 64% in 2001.  Support for routine childhood shots has especially eroded among conservatives — largely due to the Biden administration‘s disastrous, heavy-handed COVID-19 vaccine mandates that infringed on the public’s freedoms and violated privacy.  The pandemic proved that […]

The EU should follow the FDA’s harm-reduction strategy

Across much of Europe, policymakers are once again approaching tobacco control through the lens of restriction rather than harm reduction.

Montgomery County is still keeping parents in the dark

After two years of litigation and nearly 2 million taxpayer dollars spent, only 43 families, representing 58 students, opted out of lessons conflicting with their faith, following the 6-3 Supreme Court ruling in Mahmoud v. Taylor that restored parents’ right to do so. In September, Montgomery County Public Schools released data on its new “Refrigerator Curriculum” policy, […]

Failing cities turn to failed socialism

Major American cities have been failing to make things better for residents after decades of Democratic rule. Rather than trying to vote for something different, those cities keep trying to elect even more left-wing Democrats. Now, they have turned to the failed ideology of socialism. Katie Wilson, a self-described socialist, defeated incumbent Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell earlier […]

Why China remains incandescent over Japan’s comments on Taiwan

China remains infuriated by Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi’s statement last week that a Chinese invasion of Taiwan would threaten Japan‘s “survival” and would thus justify military engagement to defend Taiwan. This is an entirely logical assertion by the new prime minister. A Chinese conquest of Taiwan would result in Beijing’s dominance of trade flows […]

Is having children really cost-prohibitive?

The Pew Research Center published a new report last week on the cohort affectionately known as “DINKs,” which stands for “dual income, no kids.” Pew’s analysis defined DINKs as having at least one spouse in their 30s or 40s, two incomes, and no children. DINKs account for 12% of married couples in the United States, a percentage […]

Democrats: If it’s broke, don’t fix it

Something that isn’t discussed much about the Democrats’ 43-day shutdown of Washington is that it demonstrated their scant interest in government as distinct from their insatiable hunger for tactical leverage and power. It’s obvious on one level that people who stop a government from functioning aren’t interested in government. But there are details beneath the […]
