Special to WorldTribune.com By Stephen Moore, May 9, 2024 Everything that is happening in our fractured nation today seems so worrisomely reminiscent of America’s last lost decade — the 1970s. For those who don’t remember, the late 1970s under part-time President Gerald Ford and then much worse under President Jimmy Carter was one economic and […]
Special to WorldTribune.com By Stephen Moore, May 2, 2024 It was nearly 50 years ago that a liberal Congress completely dominated by Democrat big spenders passed a new set of budget rules — the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974. It has been a complete and unmitigated disaster. Since the act’s passage, the […]
Special to WorldTribune.com By Stephen Moore, April 25, 2024 If the economy is so good, why do small business leaders feel so bad? The latest Small Business Optimism Index from the National Federation of Independent Business could hardly be more depressing. It finds that the men and women who run our 33 million small businesses […]
Special to WorldTribune.com By Stephen Moore, April 17, 2024 In 1992, Democratic presidential nominee Bill Clinton famously answered a voter question about how the national debt affected him personally. Clinton’s response was often paraphrased as, “I feel your pain.” Whether Bill was for once being sincere or not, his words resonated. Now President Joe Biden […]

The Environmental Protection Agency will mandate by the year 2035 that virtually every car made and sold in America must be an EV. No more gas cars. […]
Special to WorldTribune.com By Stephen Moore, March 20, 2024 I am often asked if President Joe Biden is intentionally trying to dismantle the American economy with his imbecilic energy, climate change, crime, border, inflation and debt policies. But I’ve always believed these policies are driven by a badly mistaken ideology — not malice. Then I […]
Special to WorldTribune.com By Stephen Moore, March 13, 2024 It’s a good thing President Joe Biden wasn’t strapped to a polygraph while giving his State of the Union speech on Thursday, because his results would have come back about as clean as O.J. Simpson’s. That was especially true when he recited a lot of tall […]
Special to WorldTribune.com By Stephen Moore, February 20, 2024 President Joe Biden is boasting about the recent stock market rally. He’s right that stocks have been on a tear for the last 14 months. The S&P 500 hit 5,000 for the first time in history. That’s up from 500 some 30 years ago. Even with […]
Special to WorldTribune.com By Stephen Moore, February 8, 2024 It’s a miracle of private sector innovation and the magic of the free enterprise system that technologies that were only the playthings of the super-rich a generation ago are now available and affordable to almost all Americans.
