In this year's Republican presidential primaries, Sen. Rand Paul got little traction. In 2012, his father failed. That year, the Libertarian Party candidate, former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson, got just 1 percent of the vote.
Government pretends it's the cause of progress. Then it strangles innovation.
According to Betfair.com, Jennifer Lawrence probably won't win best actress at the Oscars Sunday. I'm rooting for her, though -- not because of her acting, but because the movie she stars in, "Joy," celebrates the difficulty of entrepreneurship.
The Tesla S is the closest thing to a totally driverless car available now. I had to leave my state to test-drive it. New York's archaic laws forbid taking both hands off the wheel.
Politicians tailor their messages to different audiences.

When driving on treacherous roads, guardrails are useful. If you fall asleep or maybe you're just a bad driver, guardrails may prevent you from going off a cliff.
I wish I were as confident as many politicians and news commentators. They know what America should do about ISIS and terrorism.
This week my TV show is on gun control. I interviewed activist Leah Barrett, who wants stricter gun laws.
What might have happened if a few of the 1,500 concert attendees in Paris' Bataclan theater had guns? The terrorists had time to kill, reload and kill again. The police unit didn't come for more than a half hour. If a few people in the theater were armed, might they have killed the killers?
After a terrorist attack, it's natural to ask: What can politicians do to keep us safe?
Sometimes I like Donald Trump. He makes me laugh when he mocks reporters' stupid questions.
We love to complain about elites, people who seem to have a special advantage, privileges in life.
