What's Wrong in Our Nation?
- Details
- By Star Parker
As we move to the conclusion of this election cycle, there seems to be only one thing about which all Americans agree.
That is, that something is very wrong in our nation.
In the latest Gallup polling, only 22% say they are satisfied with the direction of the country. The highest this has been over the last 16 years was 45% back in February of 2020.
So, despite change in party control over these years, the sense that something is wrong in the country has persisted.
How Iran Steals Its Citizens' Wealth to Finance Terror

The Fraser Institute in Vancouver, Canada, just published, for 2024, its annual Economic Freedom of the World Report.
There are many ideas about what freedom means.
Economic freedom, which the Fraser Institute focuses on, is of key and central importance. It is about the extent to which individuals have control of their economic life.
It's about law that protects private property, having an honest court system that adjudicates disputes, that government power to interfere with and regulate enterprise is prudent and limited, that individuals and enterprises have freedom to do business not just at home but internationally, and that governments do not debase their national currency.
Why, In Our Free Country, Do We Lack Education Freedom?

What issue could be more important to a nation's future than education?
A country is about people. How Americans act, work, think, choose -- live -- reflects their values.
K-12 education, of course, is about learning to read and do math. This is what we measure in test scores.
But education is a lot more than acquisition of technical skills. It is about transmission of values and our sense of meaning of what life is about.
Black Clergy Speak Out for Israel
- Details
- By Star Parker
On Monday, Oct. 7, my organization, CURE, Center for Urban Renewal and Education, co-hosted with Michigan Lighthouse Ministries a press conference with more than 50 pastors from across the State of Michigan, noting the atrocities committed last year by Hamas terrorists against Israeli citizens and expressing solidarity with the State of Israel.
We chose a church in the state of Michigan for this program because Michigan is home to the largest Arab American population in the country.
It is also home to Rep. Rashida Tlaib, the only Palestinian American representative in the House of Representatives and one of the nation's most strident voices against Israel.
How We Cope Shows Men and Women Are Different
- Details
- By Star Parker
I reported last week about the decided move of young women to the political left and away from the religious affiliation of their childhood.
But these measures, at least in the short run, do not appear to be relevant to the success young women are having in day-to-day living in America.
By measures such as work and academic achievement, young women are doing much better than young men.
Regarding work, as recently reported in The Wall Street Journal, more young women are now working than ever. The workforce participation rate of women ages 25-34, the percentage working or actively seeking work, stood at 78.5%, up nearly 6 percentage points from where it stood 10 years ago.
Why Are More Young Women Than Young Men Moving Left?
- Details
- By Star Parker
It's not news that young people are further on the left of the political spectrum than older generations.
Of unique interest now is that the movement to the left is more disproportionate among young women than young men.
As a nation we should know this is happening and try to understand why.
Women, traditionally, have been the stabilizing cultural influence in chaotic times. It is women who have brought children into the world and raised them when men have not been reliable fathers and heads of households.
An Important New Book About Reagan and the Presidency
- Details
- By Star Parker
Coincident with the new movie, "Reagan," is the release of an important new book about the Reagan presidency.
Ken Khachigian, chief speechwriter for Ronald Reagan from his presidential campaign in 1980 to the conclusion of his second term in 1988, has just published his memoirs from those years. The book, "Behind Closed Doors: In the Room with Reagan and Nixon," also includes, as noted in the title, time Khachigian worked with President Richard Nixon.
The book starts with his time in the White House at the end of the Nixon presidency and then includes the four years he worked with Nixon after his resignation.
