What Were We Thinking? Selected Schar School of Policy and Government Op-Eds (August 2022)

Body

From the Washington Post:

The Congressional Budget Office estimates that, over the next two years, the Inflation Reduction Act is likely to change the inflation rate by less than one tenth of one percent 鈥 but it isn鈥檛 sure whether the change would be up or down.

鈥擲teven Pearlstein

From the Washington Post:

Where the loyalties of the fastest-growing segment of any population group in America go and how long they stay there are impossible to predict. But candidates and parties that do not ardently engage Latino communities do so at their considerable peril.

鈥擬ark J. Rozell

From the Hill:

She could run for president as an independent, split the Republican vote in key swing states and throw the election to the Democrat.

鈥擝ill Schneider

From the National Interest:

Wars, however, do not necessarily end with one side militarily defeating the other.听

鈥擬ark N. Katz

From American City and County:

Climate change has become a growing threat and technology in all sectors will need to step up and play a greater role in both mitigation and strategic planning. Here are just a few examples.

鈥擜lan Shark

From International Business Times:

Unfortunately, a group of American state and local governments impedes that effort. They are engaging in a litigation crusade to hold the fossil fuels industry responsible for climate change.

鈥擱ichard Kauzlarich

From Homeland Security Today:

Al-Qaeda鈥檚 near-enemy strategy (i.e., the targeting of local regimes) and far-enemy strategy (i.e., the targeting of countries in the Western world), which it adopted after the 9/11 attacks on the United States, prioritize fighting against local governments that oppose jihadist ideologies.听

鈥擬ahmut Cengiz

From the Washington Post:

What he鈥檚 doing is akin to what he did a year ago when he campaigned on local issues with deep resonance in the state鈥檚 Democratic-voting regions in cities and suburbs as well as conservative rural areas: public safety and public education.

鈥擬ark J. Rozell

From La Opini贸n:

Those who imprecisely and dishonestly use the internationally accepted definitions of terrorism and apply them to the concept of "el narco" or "organized crime" without any rigor, do enormous damage to Mexico and Mexicans, since they would be supporting an eventual armed intervention in this country with all the consequences that this entails.

鈥擥uadalupe Correa-Cabrera

From Taiwan Insight:

The main conclusion of the episode is that it was crucial that Speaker Pelosi stood her ground and pushed through her plans for a visit to Taiwan. It is a win for democracy and a major milestone in Taiwan鈥檚 relations with the rest of the world.

鈥擥errit van der Wees

From the Hill:

Differences based on religion, race, and education are not simply differences of interest, like business versus labor. They are differences of values and identity. Differences of interest can be negotiated and compromised. Differences of values and identity cannot.

鈥擝ill Schneider

From the Washington Post:

Luria was calm and methodical, acquitting herself well before nearly 18 million Americans who viewed the panel鈥檚听second prime-time hearing. What she presented was memorable and chilling.

鈥擬ark J. Rozell

From the Washington Examiner:

While Democrats are falling behind in their quest to fight climate change, Republicans are just getting started in their new era of introducing extraordinary energy solutions that will strengthen our country for generations to come.

鈥擲ophomore Jorge Velasco

From Cyber Security Intelligence:

We need to develop more classes that bridge that Middle Management gap鈥攃reating understanding of cyber needs and structure in both a policy way and a tech way.

鈥擱onald Marks

From the Diplomat:

With all of this in mind, can the visit by Pelosi be labeled 鈥減rovocative鈥 or 鈥渦nwise,鈥澨as described in a number of U.S. publications? The answer is negative.听

鈥擥errit van der Wees

From the Hill:

The Trump document fiasco points to one of the greatest intelligence failures since the Cold War. We need a presidential commission to review the circumstances and propose laws to prevent a recurrence. This ensures future good will come from this debacle.听
