Conservatively, I’d say 80% of the econ statistics I post on this website are from Heritage. And it’s funny to see the reactions.

I'm surprised because when I was looking at Heritage the other day and reading their writings on NAFTA and why conservatives should back it, most of what they wrote NAFTA was going to be hasn't come to pass. Also, they are another faction that supports Smoot-Hawley as being responsible for the Depression and I'd thought Friedman pretty handily decimated that view back in the '60s or so (can't remember the name of the book he wrote on the causes/aggravation of the Depression but I think it may have been written in the 60s).

I liked a lot of what Heritage has on the site though, but those two things I mentioned above really disappointed me because I expect more of a conservative site in the way of facts.
