Editorial argues money alone won’t fix schools
The piece criticizes the belief that higher funding alone improves U.S. education. Despite rising per pupil spending since 1982, test scores and reading skills show stagnation. It advocates structural reform and parental school choice as the key to accountability and genuine improvement.

Unsocial insecurity and the Social Security surplus myth
A critical look at the 1983 payroll tax changes argues the supposed surplus is illusory. It notes higher taxes since 1990, a raised wage cap, and $69 billion diverted to day-to-day government spending. Moynihan favors a pay-as-you-go repeal, while the White House proposes off budget trust treatment to reveal the true deficit.
