Op/Ed

Tax competition between governments is a good thing, and those who flee high-tax countries, like Eduardo Sevarin, should be praised for keeping the pressure up on politicians to keep taxes low.

The economy and lack of job growth hits Obama’s core constituencies even harder than the general population.

Obama economic policies are almost identical to those of the French socialist François Hollande. Those policies haven’t worked in Greece or in any other place where they’ve been tried — like the U.S.

Two key factors have played a role in removing some of the cost insulation in recent years: the economic downturn and new types of health insurance coverage. And the president would like nothing better to bring an end to both.

The 2010 election saw a voter backlash to President Obama and his policies, fundamentally realigning many states.

While taxes are meant to raise revenue, they can also be used to punish people or encourage them to change their behavior — and we could sure use some change in Washington.
