    In Chicago, putting a hot dog in a bun can get you in trouble (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Like many large progressive cities, Chicago receives its fair share of criticism for overbearing regulations and sclerotic government. It clocks in at number five on the list of large American cities where it is hardest to obtain a business permit. It has some of the highest commercial property tax and sales tax rates of any large city. And as with any overregulated locale, the burden of all this regulatory excess inevitably falls most heavily on the smallest businesses. In Chicago, mobile food

    Can the feds ban you from making liquor in your own home? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    John Ream is trying to do something that should be straightforward: distill his own alcohol. Since the Founding of our country, Americans have sought to distill spirits on their own property for personal consumption. Nearly every famous Founding Father—from George Washington to James Madison to Patrick Henry—distilled spirits on their land, and in modern times, activities like homebrewing have been legalized for decades.

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    A federal judge last month blocked a New York City law eliminating the ability of rideshare companies to kick drivers off of their platforms unless they demonstrate "just cause." That injunction is temporary. But NYC should cut its losses anyway. Under NYC's "just cause" law, Uber and Lyft would have been barred from deactivating any drivers on their platform without providing 14 days' notice and establishing "just cause" or "bona fide economic reasons." What did "bona fide economic reasons" act

    This Mamdani-backed bill would kill jobs, boost unions, and make deliveries more expensive (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    As if New York City weren't already an expensive enough place to live, legislation introduced to the City Council could soon make delivering packages in the five boroughs far costlier. Cloaked in the language of improving safety, the bill—recently endorsed by Mayor Zohran Mamdani—is little more than a thinly veiled attempt to strengthen the power of unions. Introduced by NYC Council Member Tiffany Cabán in February, the misleadingly named "Delivery Protection Act" would require companies like Am

    New Jersey revives the fight to reclassify gig workers as employees (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    For close to a decade, the political left has sought to reclassify independent contractors and gig workers as full-scale employees. Most notably, there was the notorious showdown over the issue in California, after which the push generally seemed to peter out in favor of other regulatory tactics. But New Jersey is now resuscitating that reclassification campaign by enacting a new rule to crack down on gig work. The broader fight can in some sense be traced to a 2018 decision from the California
