The Fed is not the answer for real-time payments
05/12/2019 - 9:47pm
Veronique de Rugy
REAL-TIME PAYMENTS: May 9, 2019 There’s an inherent conflict of interest that occurs when an agency serves as both a regulator and competitor. Unfortunately, that describes the present state of the Federal Reserve. But rather than reform the agency to eliminate sources of conflict, the Fed is proposing to expand its market activities by launching a real-time payments system to compete...
Once a protectionist, always a protectionist

USMCA: May 2, 2019 The United States has been plagued with uncertainty ever since President Donald Trump started his trade disputes with many of our trading partners. From steel and aluminum tariffs to renegotiating the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and replacing it with the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), trade rules...
When Earth Day predictions go predictably wrong
Veronique de Rugy 04/26/2019 - 8:24pm
PREDICTIONS: April 25, 2019 As activists around the world recently celebrated Earth Day with warnings about the awful state of our planet, now seems like the right time to share the good news that actually — contrary to countless dire predictions — we’re not running out of resources. In fact, the late economist and scholar Julian...

EV TAX CREDIT: April 18, 2019 Excessive partisanship and endless acrimony are common complaints lodged against the political class. There’s a lot to be said in favor of this narrative, but bipartisanship isn’t always what it’s cracked up to be, either. As evidence, consider the latest attempt to extend corporate handouts for...
The new NAFTA is exporting the same old bad habits
Veronique de Rugy 04/12/2019 - 7:49am
USMCA: April 11, 2019 Trade agreements have been greatly successful at lowering trade barriers around the world. But they’re not without their flaws. Each agreement, in practice, tends to retain some counterproductive protectionist policies and may even export some bad policies. The United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), or “...
Government-mandated, paid leave programs proven ineffecive
Veronique de Rugy 04/04/2019 - 9:15pm
PAID LEAVE: April 4, 2019 As the saying goes, the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different outcome. This is a perfect way to describe the current effort by Democrats and some conservatives to implement a federal paid leave program. If the United States implements this policy, they believe...
