The city of Detroit, Michigan has been run by progressives for decades. It’s been catching up to them for quite a while, and now it seems that those policies are literally sending them back to the Dark Age. Detroit, whose 139 square miles contain 60 percent fewer residents than in 1950, will try to...
Isn’t central economic planning just fantastic? It brings us class warfare, crushing debt, high unemployment, obesity, massive regulation, and all sorts of other dreadful things.

Jon Corzine’s MF Global lost billions of its customers money, it just seems to have vanished. Yet the investigation seems to be on hold.

I was perusing the latest headlines at Bad Blue and came across the latest on the housing market at Business Insider. It’s kind of long, but worth a read. The conclusion is that the market is in bad shape, thanks in large part to government. In conclusion, this is not a healthy housing market; rather an epic...

You get what you pay for. That’s what some union workers are finding out the hard way. Their dues dollars helped to fund the election of President Obama and the push for Porkulus. Now they’re getting what they paid for – foreign workers taking the jobs funded by American taxpayers. In 2010, Obama and...
I didn’t use the Metro the last time I went to Washington, DC. Good thing, if I had there’s a good chance I would have been injured. Watch this Reason TV video report documenting the constant state of disrepair of the escalators in the transit system of our nation’s capital. What a disgrace! The...
Reuters has a new report that may come as a shock to people who actually believe what comes out of the mouths of President Obama and his supporters. For the rest of us, the green jobs failure was predictable. They don’t want you to see reality, just listen to their good intentions. Never mind...
I missed a few important stories while preparing for Easter that I didn’t want you to miss. Recently emails regarding Operation Fast and Furious between an Arizona ATF agent and a White House staffer were discovered and the House committee wants to question the former staffer.

Yesterday the Obama administration released some more documents relating to Solyndra, the failed solar company that cost taxpayers billion half a billion dollars.
