The Constitutionality of Health-Insurance Mandate

everyone in the U.S. have health insurance? The Manhattan Institute's Avik Roy and Columbia University's Gillian Metzger discuss the Supreme Court's hearing of the
case with Wall Street Journal Legal reporter Ashby Jones.
State of the Union
Watch Commentary on President Obama's SOTU
 "The really striking thing about the speech
was how inappropriate it was for the time. We have a number of very specific economic troubles in the last few years and most of the ideas in the speech, whether good
or bad, hold no particular relevance for the troubles of our times."— Josh Barro
 "The problem is that Americans understand too
well what government-driven health care is all about. And that's why the President didn't talk about it in his speech. . . In fact the key legacy of Obamacare if it
stays as law is what it does to fix our entitlement crisis into a further trend of runaway growth." — Avik Roy
PODCASTS
James Otteson and Howard Husock, vice president for policy research at the Manhattan Institute,
discuss the moral case for capitalism.
