While foreign countries serving as tax havens for wealthy U.S. citizens are signing up to report what they're doing, the U.S. is not reciprocating, thus becoming a tax haven for wealthy foreigners. This is really good for the U.S., as has been stated by leading economist, Dr. Ben Carson.
Freedom of speech
A Speak Out contributor expressed surprise that a professor at a publicly funded university would protest a speaker being welcomed in a publicly funded building. Nobody should be surprised at that. Having worked at a very local university for more than a few years, and at other universities over my career as an educator, I can assure you that professors at these institutions are among the most hypocritical people I have ever known. They must, according to them, be given the academic freedom to say whatever they want in class, and a large majority abuse that freedom to subtly or blatantly push their own social and political opinions on students, even ridiculing those who disagree. But should anyone disagree with them, it's a travesty that must be stopped. Freedom of speech goes only one way in their eyes. Just look at Mizzou if you think I'm wrong.
