Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.
Wealth is created through entrepreneurial coordination under uncertainty, not hoarded as a static pile waiting to be reassigned. Social Security’s problem is not a shortage of billionaires to harvest but a political design that ignores time preference, demographics, and capital accumulation.
The American economy grew at an annual rate of 4.3% this summer amid tariffs and the deportation of illegal aliens. Growth was 3.8% in the spring.
There is a federal role in ensuring the safety of our nation’s roads, most obviously because of the Constitutional dictate on “regulating interstate commerce,” and the federal funding of many highways.
President Trump: “Under these cuts, many families will be saving between $11,000 and $12,000 a year, and next spring is projected to be the largest tax refund season of all time, because of tariffs, along with the just passed one big, beautiful bill.”
The ideological divide between Republicans and Democrats is greater in 2025 than it was immediately before the Civil War in 1860. The recently passed Invest America Act highlights the key ideological difference in a way few would have thought possible in the 20th century.
Young Americans, middle-aged Americans, heck, virtually all Americans have a right to be angry. The policies implemented locally, statewide and nationally these last 50 years have combined to cause the “affordability” problem we are currently facing.
Since DC jettisoned the gold standard and imposed fiat currency in 1971? The US dollar is down in value 87%.
Lately, something unexpected has happened: gas prices have fallen sharply, reaching some of the lowest levels since 2021. And while politicians will happily claim credit for it, the truth has nothing to do with speeches, slogans, or campaign ads. What’s happening is straightforward: the world is drowning in oil.
The Democrat-media complex has glommed onto a new narrative that joins the ranks of past cliches that they’ve tried to exploit for political purposes. Their new political narrative is “affordability.”
If your goal were to sabotage Michigan’s hunting tradition, hollow out rural economies, frustrate every sportsman in the state, you couldn’t design a better system than the one the Michigan DNR proudly operates today.
An alleged bulwark against the fifty states overspending like the federal government? Has been the old saw: “The states can’t print money.”
Democrats have found the new Golden Goose for the elections. Affordability. If they win, I would not hold my breath for prices to drop.
You don’t need a PhD in economics to know when the herd is about to stampede. All you need is a functioning pair of eyeballs, a basic memory of 2008, and maybe a little common sense — which in modern America qualifies as a superpower.
The US owes $38+ trillion. Stop right there. That amount of money is insurmountable – and un-payback-able.
The US Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in 2024 was $29.2 trillion. So the debt is 130+% of that. That alone is enough information to write off the US.
Zohran Mamdani’s election was not a fluke; it was a plea for profound change, funded by CAIR and George Soros, et al. The plea was not for a return to law and order, but for politicians to listen to the people.
Twenty-four years after 9/11, New York City elected a 34-year-old whose biography reads like a Marxist coming-of-age novel with a Brooklyn rewrite. Zohran Mamdani, Muslim, activist, and self-described democrat-socialist, will become mayor January 1, 2026
Many in the press have enjoyed taking pot shots at President Donald Trump for his recent recommendation that the banking community make 50 year mortgages available to prospective homeowners.
It’s happening. President Trump’s tariffs are taking hold and the attitude of Be American, Buy American is returning.
We used to believe the housing market ran on freedom, work, and responsibility — the idea that if you saved and worked hard, you’d earn the keys to your own home. That myth still sells well, but the current cycle is revealing something darker: a culture conditioned to dependency.
We’ve built an empire around something that doesn’t actually exist — not in any tangible, survivable sense. Our currency, the almighty dollar, is a human invention with no intrinsic value, no caloric energy, no sheltering power. You can’t eat it, you can’t heat your home with it, and it doesn’t grow in the soil — yet people live and die by it.
