spells financial doom for America. As the wokesters continue their

sanctimonious virtue-signaling parade, editor in chief P.J. O’Rourke wonders if what we need now is even more cancel culture (wink). And as we’re all pandemic-weary at this point, P.J. also notes another cultural epidemic in America – the politicization of everything and how we can cure it. It’s everyone’s favorite time of year: tax season. Professor Beverly Moran from Vanderbilt University makes the case for a return-free filing system where half of all Americans would never fill out a tax return again. Speaking of the IRS, Brandon Arnold , the executive vice president of the National Taxpayers Union, showcases how Biden’s economic policies will provide a toxic two- shot of deep debt and staggering tax rates. Libertarian legend, former congressman, and frequent American Consequences contributor Dr. Ron Paul pulls back the curtain on the draconian measures of vaccine passports and COVID lockdowns – and how Americans can reclaim their freedom.
