No-Fault Insurance Will Shape 1973 Policy Debate
The article surveys no fault auto insurance as a looming issue for state legislatures and Congress in 1973. It outlines public support and confusion about no fault, explains how pure no fault pays medical and other losses up to limits, and notes critics who say it erodes the right to sue. It discusses modified no fault proposals, industry reform efforts, and the need to preserve driver responsibility while ensuring prompt compensation for accident victims. It also warns Indiana lawmakers to learn from early adopters to avoid mistakes and stresses private insurance as the preferred path over government takeover. The piece highlights insurer leadership to cut costs, improve service, and protect the private system.

Nixon abandons Family Assistance Plan amid Speenhamland critique
Phillips surveys show White House shifts on welfare policy since 1969. Speenhamland’s wage-subsidy system is cited as a warning by de Tocqueville and Polanyi-inspired critics. Moynihan and Anderson argued points in 1969, influencing Nixon to back a neo Speenhamland approach. By 1971 the Senate balked at the plan, fueling a 1973 relaunch and Anderson’s return to shape the 1972 Republican platform.
