Issues & Insights was founded by seasoned journalists from the IBD Editorials page. Our mission is to use our decades of experience to provide timely, fact-based reporting and deeply informed analysis on the news of the day.
We’re doing this on a voluntary basis because we think our approach to commentary is sorely lacking both in today’s mainstream media and on the internet. You can help us keep our mission going. If you like what you see, feel free to visit our Donations Page by clicking here. And be sure to tell your friends!

I think reparations are a great idea. Like the vast majority of Americans with their roots here tracing back before the war, my family never owned slaves yet fought and bled to free them from the bondage that their own African neighbors gleefully sold them into. So, I’m fully prepared to receive recompense from the descendants of ungrateful American slaves whose butts we set free out of our strong sense of ethics. A few million should do it.

Our goal is to bring our decades of combined journalism experience to help readers understand the top issues of the day. We’re doing this on a voluntary basis, because we believe the nation needs the kind of cogent, rational, data-driven, fact-based commentary that we can provide.
