Want to Soak the Rich? Tax University Endowments.
- Details
- By Stephen Moore
Republicans are searching for ways to "pay for" their tax cuts. Democrats want the rich to pay more tax. Here's a solution that should make everyone happy.
House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith is suggesting a tax on the $840 billion college endowments. These endowments will soon eclipse $1 trillion in size -- more money than the entire GDP of many countries.
It's high time that bloated and entitled universities pay their fair share for the government services they use.
For Whom the Zelle Tolls
- Details
- By Stephen Moore
One of the more baffling lawsuits in the final days of the Biden administration was the complaint against Zelle, the popular money transfer network. The Consumer Finance Protection Bureau argued that, despite Zelle's service being free, the network's users were being ripped off.
Now that the Trump administration has all but closed the CFPB down, this is the first of many lingering lawsuits that should be tossed out.
In its short, inglorious history, the CFPB harassed businesses with hundreds of millions of dollars of frivolous complaints that enriched trial lawyers, while doing nothing of consequence to actually help consumers.
Get Ready for America's 'Little Tech' Revolution
- Details
- By Stephen Moore
The spectacular dominance of America's Magnificent Seven tech firms -- with $1 trillion-plus market caps -- has been a marvel to behold and a genuine source of American pride. This is a theme that both President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance have in celebration of American business prowess.
The Magnificent Seven companies -- Amazon, Apple, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia and Tesla -- have a combined net worth greater than all the companies of Europe. Now that's Chiefs-versus-Eagles dominance.
America's 21st-Century Sputnik Moment Has Arrived

Just how much longer will American parents, their kids, business leaders and the political class tolerate the dreadful performance of our public schools? It's arguably the greatest threat to our nation's economic health and our national security.
The latest Nation's Report Card test scores are dismal and heartbreaking. The crash that started with inexcusable COVID-19-era school closures has continued over a cliff in almost every state.
The top 25% of eighth graders have seen math scores rebound a little bit from 2022, but they're still below 2019. The other 75% of kids' scores have remained the same or dropped.
The reading scores were even worse. Johnny can't read.
A Smart Way to Pay for the Trump Tax Cut: Auction Federal Assets
- Details
- By Stephen Moore
The federal government owns multiple trillions of dollars of federal assets -- from land, to buildings, to patent rights, to mineral rights, to immigrant visas, to oil fields to trucks and trains and unused office furniture equipment.
The government could earn well over $1 trillion and perhaps as much as $10 trillion by selling off these assets that are simply hoarded (figuratively) in the dark and dusty basement of government buildings. These assets could then generate added annual tax receipts once they are utilized for productive purposes.
I'm not talking about selling the Washington Monument or Yellowstone National Park. The sales could and in most cases should be limited to American citizens and American businesses.
Trump Inaugurates a New Era
- Details
- By Stephen Moore
Breathtaking: There's no other word for the sheer ambition and scope of Donald Trump's second inaugural address.
President Trump is back with all the confidence of a man delivered from death for a purpose.
Voters save his political life and legacy, too, by reelecting him in the face of every accusation and criminal charge against him.
Trump has been given a second chance -- by God and the country alike -- and his address left no doubt he intends to use it to transform America.
Why America Is in So Much Trouble
- Details
- By Stephen Moore
Shortly before Milton Friedman's death in 2006, I had the privilege of interviewing him over dinner in San Francisco. The last question I asked him was: What are the three things we have to do to make America more prosperous?
His answer I have never forgotten: "First, allow universal school choice; second, expand free trade; third and most importantly, cut government spending." That was long before Barack Obama and Joe Biden came along.
There aren't too many problems in America that can't be traced back to the growth of big and incompetent government.
