FRED HUTCHISON, RA ANALYST — In the last essay (part 7), we considered how Hegel propagated the cult of modernism.

ANDREW C. MCCARTHY — In a Bench Memos post, my friend Matt Franck objects to the contention in my column for last weekend that the Constitution's Origination Clause (Art. I, Sec. 7) gives the House of Representatives primacy over spending as well as taxing. Matt claims that my interpretation is bereft of historical support, a defect I'm said to camouflage by an extravagant reading of an "at best . . . ambiguous" passage in Madison's Federalist No. 58....

TROY NEWMAN — Today I've become an outlaw, a dissenter, an enemy of the state. Without my consent, the U.S. Congress passed a law that forces my conscience and conviction into an inescapable corner.
