After six weeks testing Sherrod Brown’s trademark fiscal policy – don’t cut spending, soak The Rich! – we’ve punished a dozen dirty, profitable American employers.

Obamacare Still an Awful Idea
To paraphrase Nancy Pelosi’s immortal words: the more that we find out what’s in Obamacare, the more appalled we are that you passed it.
