Will All of America Go on Strike? By Stephen Moore
If you think the supply chain problems, empty shelves in stores and higher inflation are problems now, wait a few weeks; they are likely to get worse. And this isn't a result of hurricanes, the pandemic or other acts of nature. It's all due to political incompetence that starts in the Oval Office.

Taxing America First by Stephen Moore
Back in early 2016, when Larry Kudlow and I suggested that then-presidential candidate Donald Trump propose a 20% business tax rate for U.S. companies (down from the highest in the world rate of 35%), he enthusiastically endorsed this "America First" policy -- not because he loved corporate America but because he realized that as long as small and large American companies were paying the highest tax rates, jobs and factories would continue to move offshore.

The War Is on With China By Stephen Moore
With each passing week, it looks like World War III -- between America and China -- is coming sooner than we think. It's not going to be fought with bullets or aircraft carriers, although the Chinese are building up their military in an aggressive and threatening way.

Fossil Fuels Are Back -- Everywhere Except in the USA By Stephen Moore

Government of the Unions, by the Unions, for the Unions by Stephen Moore

Congress Is Back to Serving Pork by Stephen Moore
Pork is being served in Washington again. Big juicy slices to the lobbyists with the deepest wallets and the campaign contributors who write the biggest campaign reelection checks. It is the way of the swamp. It is the currency of the Washington Beltway. It explains how people get so rich in politics.

End the Real Estate Racket by Stephen Moore
The housing market is hot, hot, hot right now, and home prices continue to soar in many markets to their highest prices ever. Since it doesn't cost a real estate agent ten times as much to sell a million dollar home than a $100,000 home, one would expect that the percentage fees for real estate agents would be falling.

Taxpayers Are Getting Ripped Off and Congress Does Nothing by Stephen Moore

How the Left Has Used COVID-19 to Bankrupt the United States by Stephen Moore
I have never bought the conspiracy theories that COVID-19 was a diabolical political plot to undermine the country.
