News got out a few days ago that Obamacare is doing more of what it was designed to do: increase costs for patients and insurance companies – even the companies whose bosses thought they would win big if they cozied up to the politicians.
Late Thursday, Feb. 30, CNBC, Reuters, and a few other observant news outlets reported that Anthem (Blue Cross) is likely to pull out of the nightmarish…
Sometimes, what the dinosaur pop news media don’t report is as revealing as how they slant what they do report. Here's an example: the fact that some Americans are now waiting upwards of two months for a doctor's appointment, all thanks to Obamacare.
A recent report on the average waiting times to see a doctor, written by John R. Graham for the Independent Institute, is a great example. His…
Want a shock? A college professor just displayed towering ignorance about the English language, and a student is suffering the consequences!
According to Shanna Nelson of Campus Reform, Cailin Jeffers, a student majoring in English at Northern Arizona University, told Campus Reform that English Professor and “President’s Distinguished Teaching Fellow” Dr. Anne Scott marked her down for using the…
Scientists are frantic.
They’re working diligently to find a curable salve for Americans who have “felt the Bern”, but the problem is getting worse. Appearing Sunday, March 26 on the circus that CNN calls “State of the Union”, he made what many free market economists have known was going to be the next move in a decades-long plan to push the US healthcare system away from competition and…

There is a rarely discussed government-created debt tsunami on the horizon, a wave so titanic and vast it could make the 2008 housing bubble that threw the US economy into a technical depression look like a ripple.
It’s the impending tidal deluge of college loan defaults, and it is not only the creation of federal policy, but it appears the previous administration…
Many Americans read George Orwell’s dystopian political novel “1984” with horror. Shocked by portrayals of collectivism stripped bare of its fictitious garlands, they realized that individual choice was smothered by Big Brother; privacy was gone, history was manipulated and turned into a tapestry of lies controlled by functionaries at the “Ministry of Truth”, and even free speech and the meaning…
There is an old, well known tune on the children’s television show “Sesame Street” called “One of These Things." It's a pattern recognition game, in which the singer – someone like the universally loved Bob McGrath – sings a few jaunty lines:
“One of these things is not like the others, one of these things doesn’t belong. Can you tell me which thing is not like the others, by the time I…
Parents often hope their children will carry on their traditions, walk the righteous paths they have trod, and uphold the ideals they held dear.
So one must wonder that when it comes to the Kennedy family, is it shocking that Ted Kennedy’s son, Connecticut State Senator Ted Kennedy, Jr. should take the family traditions of collectivism and thievery to their next logical steps -- all the way to…
Middlebury College professor of politics and economics Allison Stanger was attacked by left-wing, so-called AnftiFa (an ironic abbreviation for supposed “Anti-Fascists”) protesters on March 2, merely for attending a speech by, and talking to, conservative/libertarian author Charles Murray in the rustic Sandersesque, Flower-Power enclave of Middlebury Vermont.
Evidently hungering for more than…
As surprising and disappointing as it might be to us fans of Michael Moore’s Sasquatch-like political behavior, it appears that, just once, he has put his foot into the public arena and come out looking rather oafish.
True, downright shocking; after all, Mr. Moore is the man who told America how great the Cuban health system was (which explains why he and other wealthy Americans flock to Cuba to…
