...analyses. Unlike many other large employers, whose business is limited to making money, Harvard is in an ideal position to provide its workers with better health coverage than a look at the prices might support. It would seem less critical for the University to minimize risks to its balance sheet than risks to its former employees’ health...
...story of Bush’s youth, and now, it’s the story of his presidency. You have probably heard Bush-bashers like me rattle off his rap sheet before, from the economy to the environment, Iraq to Afghanistan, energy policy to the war on terror. We continue to indulge ourselves because, like Al Gore ’69 with his imaginary lockbox, we don’t know how else to communicate what seems only too obvious...

The country's economy grew 9.1% last year and attracted $53 billion in foreign investment, second only to the U.S. economy. The emerging middle class pushed retail sales up 9% in 2003, but industrial output shot up 17%. Economists warn of a crash waiting to happen: if too many factories make too many goods chasing too few buyers, the results are likely to be deflation, widespread business failures...
