Three Proposals for Price Stability

Candidate Ramaswamy wants to reform the Fed. Many of his arguments do not withstand scrutiny. However, there is one that deserves closer attention: his call to “stabilize the dollar…in terms of commodities.” We can think about commodity-based dollar stabilization in three ways.

Why Nothing Can Stop The Bradley Fighting Vehicle

The Bradley Fighting Vehicle is one of those American-made weapons systems — along with the AH-64 Apache helicopter gunship and B-2 Spirit “Stealth Bomber” — that were developed in the 1980s, battle-proven in the 1990s, and remain in service to this day.

Having a president who can’t say the most basic things without a cheat sheet is weird to say the least. The first line tells him to thank his host Mr. Fumio in his hometown of Hiroshima.
