Even with worker shortages, GOP and Democrats focus on more jobs Posted: 26 Apr 2018 02:10 PM PDT Ty Davenport is a man on a mission. As economic development director for Fairfield County in South Carolina, he's traveling to places like Colorado and Germany trying to bring jobs back to a place that very much needs them. Often that's coupled with a high number of working-age people who have become disengaged from the labor force for reasons that range from discouragement and drug addiction to skills that don't match today's jobs.

Why Trump and Merkel must discuss migration Posted: 26 Apr 2018 01:08 PM PDT One reason so many migrants try to reach Europe or the United States is that both guarantee free and open debate – about issues such as immigration.

Most previous "color revolutions" in the former Soviet Union have been similarly triggered by fraudulent elections or other duplicitous abuses of power.
