Niki Kelly, in a column for the news organization Indiana Capital Chronicle, expresses a forlorn disappointment in Lt. Gov. Suzanne Crouch.

The school year is winding down and high school and college students alike are looking for summer jobs or internships. In some respects, these job experiences seem surprisingly distant from those of my youth. In other ways, they are very similar. As both an employer of college students and f…

For Americans under 20, an epidemic much deadlier than COVID-19 has raged over the last three years. Deaths among those aged 1 to 19 surged 20 percent – driven by an increase in car crashes, suicide, homicide and drug overdoses.

There are several stories about the origin of the three-shot volley fired at military funerals.

Inflation is the decline in the value of currency caused by an increase in the supply of money. The supply of money is increased by excessive government deficit spending or excessively loose monetary policy, typically low interest rates. We measure this decline in the value of currency throu…

I intended to write something pithy about the just-concluded General Assembly session, since it was full of portentous news: a whopping $44 billion budget; new public health initiatives; an enormous expansion of school choice; last-minute, eye-popping raises for the governor and other top el…
