Muhammed Yunus, a frequent visitor to Utah and helper of the poor, needs support from the U.S. against baseless charges that could put him in prison. | By @JayEvensen deseret.com/opinion/2022/7…


Paul Volcker taught us how to fix inflation. It takes hard work and makes politicians uncomfortable. Biden is not on that path. @FixtheDebt @Deseret deseret.com/opinion/2022/5…


Read my piece on a strange Utah paradox. The state has the 15th worst tax burden in the nation, and yet its people are the most stress-free. I thought paying taxes was the very definition of stress. @wallethub deseret.com/opinion/2022/3…
