Kari Lake and Common Sense -
Seth Leibsohn - As we are now in high political season, we propose a thought experiment before too many decisions are frozen in amber too early on.
"For Republicans and Independents, and even Democrats whose fond memories of the party run back to the ideals of the 1960s:
- How extreme is it to support a strengthened and secured U.S. border to keep dangerous people and products from flowing into the country?
A few more questions to satisfy the experiment:
How ideal would it be for the United States to be energy independent?
- Who among any of us does not want to see our homeless population housed, free of addiction, and treated of their mental health issues?
- Who among us does not think that for the $900 billion Americans spend on elementary and secondary education, our scores and achievement levels should be much higher?
- Who here thinks the drug poisoning problem—at historically record highs—cannot be addressed and reversed?
- Who among us thinks our deficits and government spending priorities are keeping us on the track of economic prosperity and financial health?
