Don’t Worry, Neither One Will Get Much Done
We usually write these columns the day before they are published, which this time means we are writing on the morning of Election Day. Knowing that our column will be published on a day when no one is talking about anything but what happened the day before (and might still be happening) is surprisingly inhibiting. […]
Is the Trade War Immolating U.S. Patents?
It is axiomatic that developing economies with little native innovation are patent violators, while developed, high-innovation economies are patent protectors. The United States followed just the pattern—Washington urged Americans to steal British technology. So has China. Now, China is the world’s leader in new patent filings–46% of all filings in 2022–and has become a notable […]
Doctor Lyle Lovett on Intel and the CHIPS Act
Doctor Lyle Lovett on Intel and the CHIPS Act For critiques of industrial policy, subsidies, tariffs, the CHIPS Act and the like, many eminent economists are available. Our favorite is Dr. Lyle Pierce Lovett, Texas A&M ’78, for his sage advice to CEOs everywhere. Just one mistake, one wrong move, advises Dr. Lovett, can turn […]
Trump Part Deux: A Triumph for Free Trade?
Folks, we have a consensus here. Sage experts galore from around the globe, formidable thinkers such as Paul Krugman, Larry Summers, and David Stockman, some 370 “economists” including 19 Nobel Laureates and more, the frothing anti-Trump neo-conservatives on the taurine Bulwark, editors at the Economist, Fortune and Barron’s, even Trump’s economically savvy supporters, mostly fear that as President he could […]
U.S. Government Helps Chinese Hackers
The Wall Street Journal’s report of a massive hack into American networks, including those run by Verizon and AT&T, should remind Americans of two points.

Currently, […]

How is This Ally Different From All Other Allies?
Simple. In every formal U.S. military alliance, the motive of our allies is painfully clear. If they get in trouble, we will fight their battles. Israel, with which we have no formal alliance, fights our battles. And it fights them better than we do ourselves. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, Iran has been by far the […]
Round-Heeled Republicans
If you want to watch a conservative jump, just say “China” and “national security.” Unsurprising was the lack of reaction on the right side of the political spectrum to Biden’s proposal to outright ban […]

What Cleaves the Hearts of the World
Though each of us read “Mein Kampf” at different points in our lives, we were both surprised in the same way by the same thing. Expecting a racialist tract—and there is plenty of that—we got a materialist sermon. Hitler was no less a materialist than Marx. Hitler saw a world of limited and finite resources. […]
Are the Chinese Outspending Us on Defense?
The latest deception from the China Hawks in service of their campaign to enrage Americans into war with a billion people on the other side of the world, is the claim that Chinese annual military spending now sums to some $700 billion a year, perilously close to the $800 billion of the official U.S. military […]
