Dan Klein and I are editors of a new book of quotations from Edmund Burke. In his final years, Burke wrote with burning vitality in defense of liberty and against radicalism. He seems to be speaking directly to us today. Get a taste in this new piece @NRO

“No enemies to the right” is a false premise. These people aren’t to my right. They have zero interest in limited government, fiscal prudence, recognizing degeneracy, encouraging character formation through discipline and forbearance, believing in and enforcing consequences for

Raising the retirement age is good, actually. Not only does it improve solvency, but it encourages delayed retirement. The result is higher output, more wealth, and more overall healthiness and happiness. https://t.co/ZXdvh2Oz0K

"SNAP is supposed to keep people from going hungry in the world’s richest country," the Editorial Board writes. "It’s not designed for stimulating the economy or propping up stores, truckers or farmers."

Food stamps are a way to feed hungry kids, not a political bargaining chip or an engine for growth.

Heritage could save some money on marketing by just renaming the entire organization "The Kevin Roberts Show." It would be more accurate, too.

Here’s an idea: if cities are going to keep caving to the Big Bike and the cyclist mafia, and ruin traffic with bike lanes that make zero sense in some places, then I think cyclists who don’t use them, preferring to block car traffic anyway, should be subject to heavy fines.

Remember that the Left in America lies when they say that Latin Americans hate United States intervention and engagement. When was the last time you read statements like this? "In Latin America, where many see a US intervention in Venezuela positively" Or saw polls like this?

Sed contra, Rand is a lone voice in the wilderness resisting Total Boomer Luxury Communism.
Unbelievable… Rand Paul wants you to be 70 Years old before you can collect social security, OR, raise everyone’s social security tax to 25% to keep it at 67. The life expectancy for an American today is 78.4 years. So he wants Americans to enjoy only 8 years of peace (if
