Trump's tariffs will raise the average tax rate on all imports from 2.5 percent in 2024 to 18.8 percent in 2025, the highest rate since Smoot Hawley, and in line with the rates in the early 1900s before the income tax.

I’ve spent my life working to eliminate the dreadful effects of anti-competitive licensing & other regulatory schemes that impede new entry, competition & innovation. It’s a chronic problem in informational & communications technology. This new Executive Order is very welcome:

The federal government owns about two-thirds of the land in Utah and 80% of the land in Nevada. Not all of it is beautiful. It won't be the end of the world if a small fraction of this land was privatized and developed.

Based on social media reaction, you’d think the recent proposal to sell some federal land was going to eliminate all national parks, allow casinos at the Grand Canyon, or mandate Olive Gardens in Yellowstone. I read the bill so you don’t have to. cato.org/blog/unhinged-…

Senator Lee's bill on federal lands is a step forward. I examine the history of these lands and discuss alternative reforms. Most federal lands in the West should be transferred to state governments. downsizinggovernment.org/interior/refor…
