I Still Care - But My Give A Shit Meter Is On Empty

The Publisher | November 30, 2009

Albert Einstein once said, “Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe.” Even if Einstein had never discovered the Theory of Relativity, that statement alone shows that he was wise beyond his years.
Putting aside those who were born with learning disorders, I see a lot of stupid [...]

Jacob: Why we want gold to fail

The Publisher | November 29, 2009

An ancient saying has it that “gold doesn’t stink.” A modern corollary might be: “Investors do.” Well, at least I’ve caught a whiff of something: A short-term fall in the price of gold, soon.
A subset of investors have gone perhaps a bit too whole hog, and the price of gold is now racing upwards at [...]

Galt: The Day the Dollar Died

The Publisher | November 28, 2009

The following story is a potential fictional time line for the day the dollar died.

Who next will set out to conquer the world?  Who will follow in the footsteps of the great conquerors of all time?  How long will it take to herd the entire human race into the corral of world-wide enslavement?  What name will we call this new-world country created thereby?  What weapons will this new conqueror use to subjugate [...]

Growing public backlash over Obamacare

The Publisher | November 28, 2009

Two-dozen Democrats from Republican-leaning districts, who voted for the House version of President Obama’s increasingly unpopular health care reform, are beginning to feel a growing public backlash. ReversetheVote.org has already raised $123,105 that will be dedicated exclusively to defeating all 24, including Rep. Gerry Connolly, D-Va., in 2010 if they don’t reject the final conference [...]

Dems’ kamikaze mission: Health care by New Year’s

The Publisher | November 28, 2009

Democratic Sen. Richard Durbin recently was asked if a national health care bill would pass the Senate by the end of the year. “It must,” Durbin responded. “We have to finish it.”
Many other top Democrats share Durbin’s determination to meet this deadline. But it’s almost certainly not going to happen, for three reasons: the calendar, [...]
