The Reason Many Tucsonans Fly Out Of Phoenix (opens the original)
Read excerpt
TUCSON – According to AI, but not verified by my own research, 3.7 million passengers go through Tucson International Airport every year. That’s noteworthy. By contrast, 51.6 million go through Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. That’s astonishing. Fifty years ago, about 4.4 million passengers went through Sky Harbor every year, or slightly more than the 3.7 million that go through Tucson International today. Back then, Phoenix was not the economic dynamo it is today and resembled Tucson

Because it’s very unusual to see much business at the resort during the summer months, I a
Where Have All the Classical Liberals Gone? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You know that you’re in for an intellectual treat when the first two pages of the introduction to The Revolutionary Center make a connection between the World Economic Forum and Thomas Mann’s 1924 classic book, The Magic Mountain. Mann’s book was set in Davos, Switzerland, which, ironically, is also where the WEF holds its annual confab for the shameless, shallow and aloof rulers of the world. Two characters in Mann’s book argue about the pros and cons of liberalism and illiberalism, an argument
