Interesting Reads

This weekend while I was perusing some of my favorite newspapers, I stumbled upon some pretty interesting op-ed pieces. Here are three of my favorites:

E.J. Dionne Jr. from the Washington Post comments on the Republican Presidential candidate’s proposed solutions for the economic problems that we’re currently having. He highlights some pretty interesting flaws to their argument; this is definitely something that all Americans, as voters, should read.

Maureen Dowd, a renowned columnist for the New York Times, suggests that women should reconsider the misogynistic Ernest Hemingway as his fiftieth anniversary of his death approaches.   Maybe the need for a new woman in every book was harmless after all?

The last opinion piece that I found interesting was by Dr. H. Gilbert Welch in the Los Angeles Times. Although the issue of Medicare and it’s share of our GDP seems like it’s been talked to death, Dr. Welch approaches Medicare reform in a truly insightful way. He throws away partisan ideas and purely looks at the health care systems and pinpoints how reforms will be most successful.  This is definitely something to check out:

Enjoy!
