The fact that more people die from FDA-approved drugs than illegal drugs should be enough of a reason to send the FDA into the dustbin of history with the Soviet Politburo. This week's EpiPen pricing scandal adds fuel to the fire as the FDA has barred and made it virtually impossible to compete with Mylan's product. It's time to abolish the crony FDA and breathe some new life into America. Ron Paul's Myth-Busters makes the case.

Secretary of State John Kerry was in Africa recently, promising US aid to help get "clean" elections, spreading foreign aid to help fight Boko Haram (which got a big boost from the Libya intervention), and pushing for UN troops in South Sudan (a disastrous country midwifed by US intervention a few years ago).
