From time to time I’ve posted a few links to columns by economist John Tamny. What I like about Tamny is that he has a nice ability to explain some fairly complicated issues in a way that is easy for us laymen to understand, without gross oversimplifications or descending into propaganda.

I had the pleasure of crossing paths with Jack Kemp a couple of times. The first time was when he campaigned for Bill Baker in his first run for Congress back in 1992. I ...

Larry Kudlow has a great retrospective of Jack Kemp’s contributions to economic policy. In it, it becomes very clear that The Teleprompted One is the anti-Jack Kemp. Over the years Jack often called me to affirm and encourage my simple paradigm: You can’t have a good job without a healthy business t ...

America lost a great leader this weekend. Small business lost one of its champions. Jack Kemp was a leader in all of his endeavors.

All of the anger and frustration from personal or political opponents seems to wane in the hours after a death; it's as if we finally realize what we ought to all along: we are all in this together.

America mourns the passing of Jack Kemp, who ran on the Republican national ticket in 1996 with Bob Dole. Rich Galen has a tribute that also reminds everyone of the successes of supply-side economics: As a Congressman from Buffalo, New York from 1971 to 1989 Kemp’s devotion to the idea that lower ta ...

by Sandy Ikeda I was a student at Hillsdale College when the Congressman from New York gave a speech there, probably in 1976 or 77.
