    Sep 27, 2023

    It seems that the Progressives are pushing for another government shutdown and face mask wearing because a new Covid virus, EG.5 [Eris] has been discovered and is making its rounds in the United States. So they elites want us to believe..It was late 2019 in Wuhan China that this infectious disease caused by the SARS-cov.2 virus was first brought to the world's population killing millions globally. The Center for Disease Control [CDC] tells us already that by September a new vaccine against this virus will be available to the public. The speed a...

  • Consumers will be the losers with new regs on credit cards

    Sep 27, 2023

    The federal Credit Card Competition Act of 2023 (CCCA) has been touted as a means to reducing the credit card interchange fees businesses pay to process credit card transactions. But as can often be the case, government schemes to intervene in free-market transactions inevitably create distortions, misaligned incentives, and unintended consequences. Unfortunately, the CCCA would create more problems than it purports to solve. Interchange fees aren't just arbitrary costs. They cover a plethora of services: fraud protection, transaction...

  • "March-In" Isn't Enough: All Government-Funded Research Belongs In The Public Domain

    Sep 27, 2023

    Earlier this year, William Smith writes at the Pioneer Institute, "[t]he federal government announced the formation of a working group to 'develop a framework for the implementation of the march-in provision of the Bayh-Dole Act.'" Smith thinks it's a bad idea -- the title of his piece is "University Science Research Is Under Threat." The very simplified version: Under the 1980 Bayh-Dole Act, universities can use taxpayer money to do research, then patent any useful results and make bank on their discoveries by licensing those patents to...
