But the problems go deeper—like the plagiarism that university faculty would never tolerate in their students. On other fronts, what’s up with all these bans on lab-grown meat?

    Apr 10 2024

California wants to help workers by enforcing a new “fast food” wage law; what could go wrong? Hint in both cases: things can backfire. Did RFK, Jr. get the hint? Probably not, but he’s sure railing loudly against the perils of Big Government. These issues and more animate the conversation among Graham Walker, Phillip Magness, and Williamson Evers.
