Issues & Insights was founded by seasoned journalists from the IBD Editorials page. Our mission is to provide timely, fact-based reporting and deeply informed analysis on the news of the day -- without fear or favor.
We’re doing this on a voluntary basis because we believe in a free press and because we aren't afraid to tell the truth, even if it means being targeted by the left.
We are 100% reader supported!!
If you like what you see, please feel free to donate.

Michael Ramirez is a two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial cartoonist with the Las Vegas Review-Journal. His cartoons are syndicated by Creators. Michael won his second Pulitzer while at Investor's Business Daily.
Issues & Insights is run by seasoned journalists who were behind the Pulitzer Prize-winning IBD Editorials page (before it was summarily shut down). Our goal then and now is to bring our decades of combined journalism experience to help readers understand the top issues of the day. I&I is a completely independent operation, beholden to none, but committed to providing cogent, rational, data-driven, fact-based commentary that the nation so desperately needs.

Although marxists and other totalitarians don’t like it, THE CONSUMER HAS SPOKEN!!!! Most of us don’t like and don’t want electric vehicles shoved down our throat by government mandate so elites can get rich forcing this green crap on us. When technology honestly advances to the point of making electric vehicles COST EFFECTIVE, we will make our own choices between ICE and electric vehicles.
Rockefeller and standard oil didn’t gain/increase business by forcing the government to outlaw horse and buggy’s to force people to buy cars that used his product(s). The refining process was continually improved to make gasoline cheaper, ie. more affordable to more consumers; then ford improved auto manufacturing in order to make autos more affordable to more consumers. THAT IS HOW FREE MARKETS ARE SUPPOSED TO WORK!!!!! Not elites determining what they are going to force us to buy(or not be allowed to buy) so they can increase their wealth and power at the expense of everybody else.
