John Droz
"US Election Integrity: What You Haven't Been Told" Regarding elections the mainstream media says things like: “the US has safe elections, at least on a par with other free countries” and "there has been no proof of widespread election malfeasance in the 2020 elections” and “Trump and the GOP have lost essentially all 2020-related election lawsuits.” John explains why these and other such claims by the media are probably false. |

Dr. Gary Wolfram, Hillsdale College
"Healthcare in the U.S; Unintended Consequences of Government Intervention" Since the 1940's, the American Healthcare industry has become increasingly regulated and bureaucratized. The industry structure contains perverse incentives that result in higher costs and lower quality that would be expected in a market-driven system. Creating market-based healthcare that is driven by consumer demand and restructuring Medicare and Medicaid should be a national priority. |
