In 2014 (the first year of Obamacare’s key provisions), individual market premiums jumped nearly 50%. Since then, premiums for ACA benchmark plans have increased 129% for the typical enrollee. That’s: ➡️ Nearly 2x employer plan premium growth (68%) ➡️ Over 3x CPI growth (39%)
It seems obvious to me, and I could be wrong, that there are important free market/libertarian solutions on housing, health care, and Social Security--but the right will never take these solutions seriously if we keep mass migration and breathless anti-Trumpism as shibboleths.
The American Dream is completely unreachable for the overwhelmingly majority of people under 40. Does anyone in the GOP have a plan to address this? To release millions from the debt slavery of a worthless college education? To make it possible to raise a family on one income? To…
After dealing w/ some glute/hip issues for nearly a year, back squat is slowly coming back. Last set of 3x8 paused @ 275, little short and squirrely on the pauses
As a vet who sees way too many fellow vets struggling with PTSD with little to no help, I’m excited to see some new treatments being tried. 1/2
Excellent @WSJopinion piece by Allysia Finley that explains some of this Democratic cities dumping early retiree public sector workers into the exchanges The COVID credits exacerbate this Escalates taxpayer costs and makes the risk pool older & sicker wsj.com/opinion/the-ob…
This is my new favorite chart, btw. The mode (most common) age of ACA enrollees is 64 — just before Medicare eligibility.

At some point, the Montana Legislature must address unfunded pension liability. Progress was made in 2023 and effectively wiped out in 2025. themontanachronicles.substack.com/p/report-major…
This one simple graph debunks the entirety of the mainstream DNC’s talking points about taxation and the federal government’s budget.
As percent of GDP, federal receipts are pretty stable over time. Federal expenditures increased
Just got notified my premiums will go up 9%, lol. Between housing and health care, young American families are being pillaged (euphemism). I'm for the free market solutions to these problems, but my allies on this just post charts about how great everything is and chimp about…
We desperately need a free market healthcare system. Totally unsustainable

BREAKING: The average cost of a family’s annual health insurance premium has jumped +6% YoY in 2025, to nearly $27,000, an all-time high. This marks the 3rd consecutive annual increase, following 2023 and 2024 gains of +7%. In other words, premiums are now rising faster than…
States and cities can't print their way out of unpaid debt like the federal govt, so I'd be pretty concerned if I were a taxpayer in one of these top 10 most debt-ridden places. The full report is here: reason.org/transparency-p…
California State and local governments owe more than $1 trillion, and they'll have to get that money by taxing us and future Californians. Unlike the feds, California governments can't print money.
New @reason Study: California Ranks #1 in Debt — Because Sacramento Can’t Stop Spending — A new study from the Reason Foundation reveals that California now leads the nation in long-term debt, with nearly $500 billion at the state level and more than $1 trillion when state and…
@ReasonFdn is excited to announce a major new release from our Government Financial Transparency Project. Today we released our State and Local Government Finance Report and GovFinance Dashboard data portal, providing balance sheet data scraped from the ACFRs of over 21,000…
Might need to take a bit of a wait and see on this one
Wow. The US just posted a massive surplus of +$198 Billion for the month of September. 🟢 Total Receipts: $544B 🔴 Total Outlays: $346B $30 Billion in tariffs collected.
If Florida lawmakers are trying to defund public schools, then they aren't very good at it. As with most states, inflation-adjusted dollars fell during the Great Recession. But since that time, Florida's public school funding has climbed steadily each year, hitting $14,462…
The #1 news story in Florida remains that the FLGOP are actively in the middle of defunding Florida public schools. They aren’t even hiding it at this point. The fight isn’t over though. Allowing charters into high-performing public schools is going to be extremely unpopular.
Yeah this is basically a dual-income phenomenon. Looking at married couples 25-35 (which is arguably a more selective/elite group) shows that the upper income group expanded because you had two people working.
The middle class is shrinking ... in a good way and for the right reasons! cato.org/blog/economic-…
