Freedom, Conservatism, And The Common Good

by Peter Berkowitzvia Real Clear Politics
Monday, December 6, 2021

Because of their national spirit, Edmund Burke cautioned Parliament in his 1775 “Speech on Conciliation,” the Americans’ opposition to taxation without representation required “an unusual degree of care and calmness.” The growth of the population and the colonies’ outsized commercial contribution to the British empire by themselves counseled every reasonable effort to compromise.

Shultz had served in three U.S. administrations as secretary of labor, director of the Office of Management and Budget, secretary of the Treasury, and secretary of state. After the 1986 Reykjavik Summit, he led negotiations with the Soviet Union that led in December 1987 to the Intermediate Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty.

The Big Deception Behind Tariffs And Geopolitics

by Alexander Galetovic, Stephen Habervia The Hill
Sunday, November 3, 2019

China and the United States have been engaged in a 15-month-long trade war, with an end that is not in sight. As parties and candidates gear up for next year’s elections, all manner of claims are being made about the goals of the trade war and its effects. Basic tools of economics and political science can help adjudicate the merits of those claims.

The Military-Intelligence Complex

by Victor Davis Hansonvia American Greatness
Sunday, November 3, 2019

Many retired high-ranking military officers have gone beyond legitimately articulating why President Trump may be wrong on foreign policy, and now feel free to smear him personally or speak openly of removing their commander-in-chief from office. And the media and the bipartisan foreign-policy establishment are with them every step of the way.

The Arrogant Elites Vs President Trump And Deplorables

quoting Victor Davis Hansonvia KROC News
Sunday, November 3, 2019

The privileged, intellectual elites in the media, academia, politics, and government are part of the anti-Trump “Swamp.” They are fervent in their mission to take down President Trump, nullify the 2016 election, contaminate the 2020 vote, and silence Trump’s supporters. Victor Davis Hanson, the California military and classical historian, author, farmer, and columnist is a Trump supporter. Hanson deplores the biased elites who think they are superior to Trump and his supporters.

Why Will No Democrat Pull The Plug On Schiff?

cited Victor Davis Hansonvia American Thinker
Sunday, November 3, 2019

One would think that by now that there would be one or two sentient Democrats who realize the terrible damage that Adam Schiff is doing to their party. But, with the possible exception of the two Democrats who voted against Pelosi's stupid "impeachment resolution," Reps. Jeff Drew and Collin Peterson, they all seem to be captive to Nancy Pelosi's and Adam Schiff's pathological moonbattery.

Helping Students Find Intentional Purpose

quoting William Damonvia SRQ Magazine
Saturday, November 2, 2019

The North Star strategy at the Education Foundation of Sarasota County is for all students to graduate with purpose prepared for their postsecondary future. Our job is not finished when the student receives a high school diploma. We know that jobs today increasingly require graduates to acquire some level of specialized training, postsecondary credential, or workforce relevant certification, while also adopting a lifelong learning habit of acquiring skills and knowledge to empower them to adapt and prosper in future.

The Government Should Get Out Of Drug Prices

quoting Richard A. Epsteinvia The Minnesota Republic
Saturday, November 2, 2019

It doesn’t take a political science expert to inform the public that our nation is in a period of intense polarization and political strife. It seems that every issue is partisan and that no solution is achievable for an array of topics affecting the American people. However, there seems to be a light at the end of the tunnel. Both Republicans and Democrats are prioritizing a reduction in drug prices. Though there is a persistent debate on what specific policy should be used to reduce drug prices, there are numerous examples of overlap and bipartisan solutions to an issue that has been deemed as complex.

How The World To The Dark Tower Came

quoting Victor Davis Hansonvia PJ Media
Saturday, November 2, 2019

"California," argues Victor Davis Hanson, is "becoming pre-modern" despite ballooning government solutions. Like fictional pre-modern societies, it is becoming a two-tier society; a landscape of fantastical castles amid a sea of peasants. It is as if the technologically sophisticated components of the Golden State were creating its shadow of poor, homeless, drug-addicted and unskilled populations.

More Reforms Needed To Spur Growth

quoting Raghuram Rajanvia The Tribune
Saturday, November 2, 2019

It is evident that the world’s eyes are now on India’s growth and its potential to be one of the fastest growing economies in the world. Unless the government tailors its policies to provide a comfort level to foreign investors, the flow of investment from abroad will not rise as much as needed to boost growth.
