Executive Order On Drug Price Controls Would Backfire
Rumor has it that President Trump will soon issue a sweeping executive order to lower prescription drug prices by fiat. Nothing is set in stone. But the order would reportedly index the government’s reimbursements for medicines to the prices that Britain, France, Canada, and other developed nations pay. Since all those nations ...

Biden a moderate? Sanders, AOC plans for candidate suggest this instead
Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden has long been considered a political moderate. A new report from his “unity” task forces should put that reputation to rest.
