- Obamacare a Farce, Must Be Repealed
The new federal health care program represents an authoritarian power grab and a fraudulent bait-and-switch. It must be overturned, judicially or legislatively.

This article builds on the author's five testimonies before Congress during the financial crisis and implementation of the TARP bailout and his consultation for the Special Inspector General for TARP. After considering corporat...
