Gavi Shlomovich
The United States economy supposedly prides itself on its ability to meet suppliers with buyers. In this system, anyone, you or me, can become a seller of goods, make a profit, and earn a living. However, the government finds its way into every relationship it can. But this is not about taxes: this is about the Jones Act...

What the hell is going on in the Gulf?
Joe Davidman
In recent weeks, there has been a quiet movement of a massive arsenal of air and naval assets to the Persian Gulf. In theory, this is in response to the largest wave of protests in Iran’s history since the 1979 revolution, but the geopolitical stakes go far beyond this latest bout of political repression...

My Neighbor the Data Center
Sam Lubline
Home for me is a smaller city in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Appalachia: Roanoke city.

Taxes Are The Problem, Just Not in That Sense
Ashley Kim

When Interest Rates Become Politics: The Turkish Case
Luana Volkova
While Erdoğan might be a less popular authoritarian figure compared to his slavic neighbor from across the Black Sea, his political games have brought a lot of interesting aspects into the Turkish economy. Monetary policy is supposed to be about inflation, growth, and financial stability. In Turkey, it has also been about power...
