|
 | 11/26/2011 - We live in interesting times. Even as our own civilization hangs on the precipice of financial solvency, the priorities of the uninformed masses as so distorted that many will actually camp out in front of a Best Buy store in order to be the first in line to save $100 on a big-screen TV. In a time when...

|
| 8/14/2011 - In past election years, there was a joke that the choices for president were so bad someone ought to put Mickey Mouse on the ballot because he'd probably win. Based on the most recent public opinion polls, Mickey is looking better and better.
A sinking economy, coupled with stagnation in Washington,...
|
 | 8/10/2011 - When the head of a credit ratings agency in the country that holds most of your debt says your currency is in danger of being "discarded" by the world, you should probably listen.
Earlier this week, just two days after Standard & Poor's downgraded America's credit rating for the first time in our...
|
| 8/10/2011 - Nothing says "debt crisis" like borrowing more money than you take in over the course of a year, but that's what the U.S. government has done.

|

But before you shed too many tears for the Mother Continent, save a few for America...
|
 | 8/5/2011 - The drama of uncertainty. The last-minute pandering to colleagues. The "nail-biting" final votes. Yet in the end, lawmakers did their "duty" and agreed to raise the federal debt ceiling and allow the government to borrow even more money than the $14.3 trillion it current owes.
But to be honest, who...
|
 | 8/2/2011 - Most people, even smart people, know surprisingly little about the way money really works in Big Government.

|
 | 7/29/2011 - For the last few decades, it all seemed so simple for the USA: We'll spend other people's money, and when we run out, we'll just borrow from yet more people. It worked for a while... until all those "other people" (foreign central banks) got sick of buying U.S. debt. So lately, Ben Bernanke, Tim Geithner...

|
 | 5/11/2011 - Despite being awash in red ink - to the tune of more than $14 trillion - the United States has managed to retain its AAA credit rating, which is the highest rating available.

Martin...
|
 | 5/2/2011 - S&P has already downgraded U.S. debt, and the global financial leaders are running from the dollar as quickly as they can.

|
 | 4/9/2011 - The difference between the Democrats and the Republicans is that the Democrats want to spend us into oblivion while the Republicans only want to spend us into purgatory.

|
 | 1/4/2010 - Even if Obama's health care reform bill becomes law, mandating that all Americans buy health insurance policies for a failed system of "sick care", I will refuse to comply.

|
| 7/15/2009 - The great lumbering health care reform gears are in motion in Washington D.C., and the Big Government machine is spitting out a new recipe for the bankruptcy of America: A "health care reform" bill that pleases all the special interest groups and pharmaceutical companies but does nothing to improve...

| 2/16/2009 - This is not the first time a recession or a depression has occurred. It is an event that happens again and again, a recurring problem, which has yet to be solved.

|
| 2/7/2009 - While Congress has passed an $800+ billion economic stimulus plan, almost everybody in America seems caught up in a common economic fallacy: The idea that Government can "create" jobs through debt spending.

|
| 1/1/2009 - As the new year rolls in, the mainstream media seems to be saying now that 2008 is over, things will automatically get better for the economy. "Good bye 2008!" say the headlines. And "Hello New Year!"

|
| 1/22/2008 - Americans have always been fond of the idea of getting rich without effort by putting their money in things that produce no profits and then magically being able to ride those investments, milking them for spending cash that supports a drunken spending lifestyle.
