Quotations Missing from Bartlett ’s
David BoazOverat The Dispatch (ungatedhere) I have a critique of the latest edition ofBartlett ' s Familiar Quotations. As I say,Bartlett ' sis " the gold standard of quotations, the place anyone can go to confirm a quote and see the source. " But its editors " seem far more familiar with the words of liberal, leftist, and socialist sources than those of conservatives and libertarians. "Over the past 40 years, since the rise of Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher, John Paul II, and even Deng Xiaoping, the world has seen a turn toward markets and economic freedom (albeit with a fall in 2020 during the pandemic lockdowns).

The Resurrection of Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
Vanessa Brown CalderAffirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH), a controversial Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) rule first introduced by the Obama administration, is being resurrected by Biden ’s HUD.The history of AFFH is winding, and the rule has been through various evolutions since its introduction. Under Secretary Castro, AFFH was proposed in 2013 and gradually revised through a public comment process. Thefinalized 2015 rule created various reporting and planning requirements intended to ensure that program participants were taking steps to “affirmatively further fair housing” throu...

The Ohio Train Derailment, Safety Regulation, and the Historical Improvement in Rail Safety
David Kemp andPeter Van DorenEarlier this month, a Norfolk Southern freight trainderailed in East Palestine, Ohio, causing a large fire, releasing hazardous materials, and prompting emergency crews to conduct a controlled release and burn of toxic vinyl chloride. Fortunately, no lives were lost, but up to two thousand nearby residents were evacuated from their homes for nearly a week, and there are still concerns about pollution. Sober analysis is rarely welcomed after an accident like this. We believe it is worthwhile, however, to illuminate some journalistic errors and place the derailment in the context of increasing fr...

Is Operation Chokepoint Back and Targeting Cryptocurrencies?
Nicholas AnthonyOperation Chokepoint may be the most infamous example of the U.S. government using its weight to pressure the financial system in recent history. The operation was thought to have ended with the Obama administration, but now many fear that cryptocurrencies have been caught in the crosshairs of a similar effort.For those that are unfamiliar,Operation Chokepoint was a coordinated effort between the Department of Justice (DOJ), Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), and Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) to shut down politically controversial businesses by restricting their access to banks....

Presidents and Presidents ’ Day
David BoazAs government workers —thoughfewer than a third of private ‐sector office workers—get a day off Monday for Presidents ’ Day (legally, though not in fact, George Washington’s Birthday), I’m thinking about presidents.Every few years Siena College asks historians and political scientists torate the presidents. Presidential scholars love presidents who expand the size, scope and power of the federal government. Thus they put the Roosevelts at the top of the list. And for a long time they rated Woodrow Wilson —theanti ‐Madisonian president who gave usthe entirely unnecessary World ...

Debt, Deficits, and Default in President Biden ’s State of the Union
Romina BocciaPresident Biden devoted quite a few lines in hisState of the Union address to making various claims about deficits, debt, and the debt limit. President ’s Biden’s statements are indented below, my reactions follow.“In the last two years, my administration cut the deficit by more than $1.7 trillion — the largest deficit reduction in American history.”This claim is untrue. Deficits declined due to COVID-19 emergency spending waning, not because “the administration cut the deficit.” President Biden is claiming victory over deficits when his administration’s policies significantly increased de...

13 Year Old McAllen
BY IAN MORRISON
As a Scot, obviously I am a whisky fan, and although I prefer the smoky malts of Islay (where my grandfather was from and where I visit my friends there frequently), I am also a huge fan of McCallan 18-year-old whisky, the sticky toffee pudding of single malts.
But as all policy wonks know, McAllen Texas is not famous for whisky but for Atul Gawande’s “Cost Conundrum” article in the New Yorker, in 2009 which is still required reading in medical school and MPH classes and was arguably the cornerstone of Obama health policy and the ACO movement.
Dr. Atul Gawande described overutilization and hi...

Decline in Union Density No Cause for Worry
Daniel GriswoldUnion organizers have been winning a few battles to organize workers in coffee shops and distribution warehouses, but they continue to lose the war over the relative importance of unions in the private-sector labor market.This week the U.S.Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the share of private sector workers who belong to unions, the so-called “union density,” fell to another post-war low of 6.0 percent in 2022. The number of workers in private-sector unions actually grew last year, but not enough to keep up with the overall growth in private-sector employment.The decline in union membership isn ...

About Those “Misplaced” Classified Documents…
Patrick G. EddingtonNo one should envy Attorney General Merrick Garland. He now has another presidential scandal involving “misplaced” or otherwise purloined classified documents on his hands. Except this time, it involves President Joe Biden, the man who nominated Garland to be the nation’s chief law enforcement officer.Naturally, many of Biden ’s political opponents aredrawing parallels between the mountain of classified material that Donald Trump shipped to Mar ‐a‐Lago and the two batches (and counting?) of classified material in Biden’s possession outside of proper federal handling and storage chann...

U.S. Can ’t Afford Another Decade Without New Free Trade Agreements
Clark PackardAs 2022 winds down, it is worth noting that it has now been ten years since the United States entered into a free trade agreement (FTA) with new trading partners. Despite claims that the United States is a “hyperglobalist,” the reality is much different. In fact, as Adam Posen of the Peterson Institute for international economicsnoted in his excellentForeign Affairs essay last year, the United States has been withdrawing from international economic integration for about 20 years. The consequences of a stagnant trade agenda will become more apparent and pronounced as time passes.In 2012, U.S....
