And we often read about how young people are desperate to find jobs "with a living wage." So why aren't they teaming up and living happily ever after? Where's the disconnect? It's in basic skills. Employers routinely report that people they interview don't have ... \[ Continue reading\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/education/not-proficient-in-reading-and-math-no-job-for-you) ## \[Education Consultant Faults Wyoming\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/government-programs/education-consultant-faults-wyoming) Wednesday, 17 August 2016 \[Education\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/education) \[Government Programs\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/government-programs) <a> !\[\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/images/easyblog\_articles/929/b2ap3\_large\_P-O\_Spending\_History\_Graph.jpg) </a>Wyoming has been paying a ton of money for K-12 education since 2005. The reason for the heavy spending? It was a major Wyoming Supreme Court/Legislative overhaul of the way our schools were being funded to equalize spending among students. Now we find that the consultants, on whose advice the spending was largely based, criticize the system for we... \[ Continue reading\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/government-programs/education-consultant-faults-wyoming) ## \[Obamacare’s expansion means less, not more healthcare\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/health-care/obamacare-s-expansion-means-less-not-more-healthcare) Friday, 12 August 2016 \[Limited Government\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/limited-government) \[Government Programs\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/government-programs) \[Health Care\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/health-care) by Charles Katebi Since Obamacare became law, patients have seen their health insurance choices disappear. There are fewer insurers selling fewer plans with narrower networks than ever before.

Expanding Medicaid under Obamacare is not one of them. Instead, the program crowds out private insurance, underpays doctors, and delivers terrible outcomes to patients. For starters, Medicaid ex... \[ Continue reading\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/health-care/medicaid-expansion-s-hidden-cruelty) ## \[Medicaid's Empty Promise to Patients\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/health-care/medicaid-s-empty-promise-to-patients) Monday, 25 July 2016 \[Government Programs\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/government-programs) \[Health Care\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/health-care) \[Keep Wyoming Strong\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/keep-wyoming-strong) In this short video, Charlie Katebi explains why Medicaid can't afford to take care of Wyoming's most vulnerable patients.

Yet we have little to say in its management. The federal government mandates who Medicaid covers, what it pays for, and how it pays doctors. Because of all these mandates, Medicaid has grown too large and cumbersome to ensure patients have reliable ac... \[ Continue reading\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/government-programs/block-grants-a-prescription-for-medicaid-reform-in-wyoming) ## \[Wyoming Must Reduce Education Spending\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/education/wyoming-must-reduce-education-spending) Friday, 15 July 2016 \[Economic\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/economic) \[Education\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/education) State revenues are declining dramatically and are expected to continue to decline. That means big ticket items, even crucial ones like K-12 education, must feel the pinch. No one wants the quality of education in Wyoming to drop, but the spending on it must decrease. Why? The Consensus Revenue Estimating Group (CREG) projected in January that total... \[ Continue reading\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/education/wyoming-must-reduce-education-spending) ## \[Why Wyoming Needs a Taxpayer Protection Pledge\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/government-programs/why-wyoming-needs-a-taxpayer-protection-pledge) Monday, 11 July 2016 \[Economic\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/economic) \[Government Programs\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/government-programs) \[Keep Wyoming Strong\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/keep-wyoming-strong) We often point to the third-party payer problem as the cause of the explosion in health care costs. Insurers pay doctors who provide services to patients. This separation of payer and patient means the patient has little incentive to question the cost or even the quality of service. Now imagine what would happen if a big part of a state's spending ... \[ Continue reading\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/blog/government-programs/why-wyoming-needs-a-taxpayer-protection-pledge) \[ First Page \](https://mail.wyliberty.org/current-posts?format=html) \[ Previous Page \](https://mail.wyliberty.org/current-posts?format=html&amp;start=440) \[ 41 \](https://mail.wyliberty.org/current-posts?format=html&amp;start=400) \[ 42 \](https://mail.wyliberty.org/current-posts?format=html&amp;start=410) \[ 43 \](https://mail.wyliberty.org/current-posts?format=html&amp;start=420) \[ 44 \](https://mail.wyliberty.org/current-posts?format=html&amp;start=430) \[ 45 \](https://mail.wyliberty.org/current-posts?format=html&amp;start=440) \[ 46 \](https://mail.wyliberty.org/javascript:void(0);) \[ 47 \](https://mail.wyliberty.org/current-posts?format=html&amp;start=460) \[ 48 \](https://mail.wyliberty.org/current-posts?format=html&amp;start=470) \[ 49 \](https://mail.wyliberty.org/current-posts?format=html&amp;start=480) \[ 50 \](https://mail.wyliberty.org/current-posts?format=html&amp;start=490) \[ Next Page \](https://mail.wyliberty.org/current-posts?format=html&amp;start=460) \[ Last Page \](https://mail.wyliberty.org/current-posts?format=html&amp;start=730) !\[logo white 002\](https://mail.wyliberty.org/images/general\_art/logo\_white\_002.png) \*\*Wyoming Liberty Group\*\* P.O.
