		<description><![CDATA[by Tom McClintock - The government&#8217;s continuing failure to address our nation&#8217;s gut-wrenching unemployment stems from a fundamental disagreement over how jobs are created in the first place. We are now in the third year of policies predicated on the assumption that government spending creates jobs. We have squandered three years and trillions of dollars [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Ryan Ellis - If there&#8217;s a common denominator in tax reform and economic growth packages, it&#8217;s this: the corporate rate is too high, and needs to come down for the sake of keeping our employers competitive internationally. Even most on the Left have accepted this. The most common tax-rate target is 25%. Because of [...]]]></description>

Both have been pushing the same class-warfare narrative for many years, using current US capital gains and dividends taxation rates as evidence for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Ron Ross - It&#8217;s now clear that the federal government&#8217;s massive stimulus spending has not achieved its objectives. Why hasn&#8217;t it? It&#8217;s important that we have answers to that question. The stimulus was premised on the economic model known as Keynesianism: the intellectual legacy of the late English economist John Maynard Keynes. Keynesianism doesn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[America is in grave danger. Our government&#8217;s out-of-control spending and our politicians&#8217; refusal to implement meaningful budget reforms are leading us towards a fiscal crisis that can undermine our very way of life. We are spending ourselves into oblivion. With each passing day, we are $5 billion in deficit spending closer to the edge of [...]]]></description>

IBD reports that wholesale prices, often a precursor to consumer prices, rose at an yearly rate of 8% in February. The story warns: &#8220;Food prices today are the highest on record, rising at double-digit [...]]]></description>

Yet America is uniquely positioned to rebound and recover our economic preeminence. All that is necessary is a political decision to reverse our energy policy and stimulate domestic production of hydrocarbons. From that would flow a [...]]]></description>

It wasn’t about “the economics of the organic food system,” or “the costs and benefits of pollution control,” as two of the seminars were labeled. No, the behavior drawing [...]]]></description>

I may not be an economist, but as one trained in logic as a philosopher, I have been horrified by the recent economic policies of both Presidents G.W. Bush and B.H. Obama. Let&#8217;s start with Bush and the first TARP bill. My [...]]]></description>

Those benefits are about $400 a week, not enough to put food on the table, pay the [...]]]></description>
