Many reformers have the system’s basic premise in their cross hairs. Instead of a relying on a guaranteed payment to supplement your investments, they think you should invest your Social Security contribution, too. But we don’t have to upend the system in order to “save” it. Whether it’s better to switch to private stock accounts is a separate question.

This year, one of the first truly big-ticket items to catch our eye was Kohler’s $16,000 smart bathtub. It will be available later this year, but as we’ll see, you’ll need to rip out your entire bathroom and start again in order to accommodate it.

The final vote of 224-194 was mostly along party-lines, with three Republicans voting yes and eight Democrats voting no. Language referencing Trump, his top officials and the Iranian general who was killed by the U.S. last week, Qasem Soleimani, was stripped from the measure thanks to an amendment from Rep.

China had staked its national honor on the Olympics contest. Now its humiliating defeat threatens to throw an even deeper chill over Washington’s already frosty relations with Beijing. Last June President Clinton renewed China’s most-favored-nation (MFN) trading status–but warned Beijing to clean up its human-rights act or face higher tariffs on its exports to the United States in 1994. In August Washington slapped economic sanctions on China, which it said sold components for M-11 ballistic missiles to Pakistan, in violation of a treaty banning such sales....
