EDITOR’S COMMENT: As you will see from these comments, we clearly need to defund or somehow remove this looming fiscal, financial and medical disaster from our country.

EDITOR’S OPINION: Peter Morici, in his writings, has continually emphasized how important it is and will be to deal with America’s large trade deficit. The two major reasons for our trade deficit are our oil imports and the huge trade imbalance with China.

President Obama continues to ignore these two large-impact imbalances, when creating additional government spending, and arguing for higher taxes from the upper income group. As for increasing our domestic oil Read More »

EDITOR’S COMMENT:  Gary North again hits the nail on the head by concluding that German subsidies will most likely not prevent a Greek default. The question then is “What happens next.” The reality is no one knows, but almost everyone involved is very worried about contagion from this default spreading around the world. You should definitely read his thoughts about the developments in Europe that will be coming very soon.

In the UK, Chief Secretary to the Treasury, Danny Alexander, recently walked up to the microphone and announced that Read More »

EDITOR’S COMMENT: Professor Morici’s comments here are excellent, but I particularly liked his suggestion to Speaker Boehner for giving a list to the President documenting where the huge government spending occurred during the past three years, and asking the President to cut half this amount. This once again should show Obama’s true agendas.

EDITOR’S COMMENT: These comments really reflect what is currently happening in Germany, where Chancellor Merkel may not be accurately reflecting the will of the German politicians or the German people. Also, The German High Court may soon be involved again, and be required to give its blessing to Germany lending additional funds to the EFSF. How Germany resolves all this will help determine the fate Read More »

EDITOR’S COMMENT: I suspect I’m not the only one who considers this news item to be vintage Orwellian, as this reflects a new policy by the Fed to attempt to eventually “control” the many disparate comments about the Fed in the social media. And, I’m guessing that they will not be focusing on the favorable comments.

As mentioned, apparently, the Fed is planning to try to “identify and influence” certain bloggers. Once identified, Read More »
