The Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 puts an end to Reagan legacy - Anaheim news - NewsLocker (2024)

SACRAMENTO – After casting my first vote for Jimmy Carter in the 1980 presidential election, I was shell-shocked after Ronald Reagan was swept into office. Then something odd happened. I was buoyed by Reagan’s optimism, became convinced about the evils of communism and came to realize the free-market economy – rather than expanded federal power – offers the best hope for the downtrodden (and everyone). The Gipper convinced me.
He had some help from former Buffalo Bills qu

Ron Paul: Stop taxing tips

Donald Trump recently promised that, if he wins the November election, he will support eliminating taxes on tips as part of his proposal to renew and expand the 2017 tax cuts. This tax law change would be a long overdue boost for millions of Americans.
Tips often comprise a substantial portion of the earnings of waiters and waitresses, as well as of other service-sector employees. However, unlike regular wages, a service-sector employee usually has no guarantee of, or legal right to, a tip. Inst

Shots Fired: How 400 years of gun ownership built America’s culture

Cody Beckner, like many Americans, prefers to stay armed.
The 27-year-old from Hampton likes to carry one of his favorites, a 9 MM Canik handgun with a Holosun red-dot sight. He wears it on his hip when shopping, concealed when eating out. Most days, he keeps an AR-15 in his Ford SUV. Most nights, he keeps a gun next to his bed.
