“Calvin Coolidge’s 1914 economic philosophy offers a vital blueprint for Ghana’s current development.”Ghana stands at a critical economic crossroads, demanding a radical shift from reactive survival to deliberate, structural transformation. For decades, our national discourse has been trapped in a zero-sum illusion: the false belief that to lift the poor, we must restrict or heavily penalize the wealthy and successful. This mindset breeds over-regulation, unpredictable taxation, and a hostile environment for the enterprise engines that drive national growth.To break this cycle, Ghana must look to a timeless truth articulated in 1914 by former US President Calvin Coolidge: “Don’t expect to…

Whether it is household goods from China Mall and Panda Mart, products from Melcom, meals from KFC, or imported rice brands such as Jasmine and Lele, many consumers instinctively associate foreign products with superior quality, even when…

Restoring the Sacred Triad of Home, School, and Community to Save the Ghanaian ClassroomThe classroom has traditionally served as the crucible for shaping Ghana’s future leadership, grounding academic excellence in strong moral values. Today, however, that foundation is fracturing under a heavy wave of campus lawlessness, rioting, and violence.

If we fail to act immediately, we risk transforming our secondary schools from sanctuaries of learning into breeding grounds for…
