On November 6, 2010, I published an article predicting the Republican Party’s predictable capitulation to ObamaCare. It happened this week. Speaker of the House Paul Ryan oversaw the burial of House Republicans’ opposition. His toothless and feckless compromise bill — ObamaCare Lite — was DOA. Good riddance. Ryan used to parade his fondness for the […]

Paul Ryan, whose commitment to Ayn Rand’s philosophy of limited government is every bit as firm as Alan Greenspan’s was, has announced the following: “If We Don’t Pass My Bill, ‘The System Is Going to Collapse.’” Casting his ObamaCare replacement bill as the only chance to save America from a complete health-care collapse, Speaker Paul […]

It bothers me a little when conservatives call Barack Obama a “socialist.” He certainly is an enemy of the free market, and wants politicians and bureaucrats to make the fundamental decisions about the economy.

My wife is a member of Christian Health Care Ministries. At age 64, she pays $1,000 a year. What are you paying? You are probably younger, yet you pay more. You are forced to do this by ObamaCare. My wife is exempt from ObamaCare. Maybe you can be, too. If you are a Christian, you […]

President Obama, now a visible lame duck, proposes the biggest tax hike in his career, other than ObamaCare, which the Supreme Court says is a tax. The money will be used to fix potholes. You know: “shovel-ready.” He has no authority over Congress. He does not submit a budget bill to the Congress. Congress submits […]

A year before ObamaCare was signed into law, this article by Dr. John W. Robbins appeared in his newsletter, Trinity Review: “The Ethics and Economics of Health Care.” He wrote it in 1994, in response to Hillary Clinton’s attempt design a law establishing federal heath care. He wrote: This brings us to the central recognition […]
