The September edition of IDEAS introduced Dr. Richard Ebeling, the renowned economist who joined our faculty in August. Dr. Ebeling has an outstanding academic and professional background, and is passionate about national and global affairs. We are pleased to present his essay on the Berlin Wall - twenty years after its fall. We think you will find it stimulating and thought provoking.
The Health Care Reform activity in Washington has been fraught with emotion and considerable rhetoric. For those of us who understand free-enterprise principles, we know the effects of misguided decisions by the members of Congress could be catastrophic.

We've reprinted it following Dr. Ebeling's essay.
