As the National Park Service turns 100, a new institute at Duke, led by renowned conservationist Stuart Pimm, is primed to play an important role. “Many of our parks don’t have the financial support we think they deserve,” Pimm says.
“It might be surprising that some of the most enthusiastic supporters of this idea have been Libertarians. but really, it makes sense in that a single, direct payment to citizens could replace a costly, complicated and vastly inefficient welfare bureaucracy.”
The Charlotte Observer’s cartoonist Kevin Siers offers his take on Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort’s ties to Ukraine for elections he worked on as an international consultant. Siers will be part of a political cartoon and satire festival at Duke Sept. 21-24.
