Logically the debate over gun control would be framed in terms of probabilities, rather than catch phrases such as, "When guns are banned, only criminals will have guns." Nevertheless, catch phrases will prevail. I suppose it is an unavoidable result of our defective human nature, hopelessly...

De-globalization???? The word and the thought will go the way of the "Year 2K Bug."

No signs of a turnaround. Some rather unenthusiastic buying the last hour.

I think he irritated Mr. Mueller with his bitching about not knowing it wasn't OK to lie.

not all countries calculate inflation in the same way.

You can see the double top and the more or less parabolic rise into both tops. If you go back to the "devils bottom" in March 2009 (666) and draw channel lines from there you will see easily that the two tops broke above the channel lines (draw the channel but do not include the tops in it.)

Of course it is dangerous to predict. But here is my thinking. First I don't see that we are anywhere close to recession despite all the news that suggests uncertainty -- speaking here of Trumps trouble, Brexit, and China's economy.-- we are still looking at very heavy deficit spending coming...

Aha. So finally we hit my target zone. I suppose we still may have to visit 2500 briefly to satisfy those that like tidy numbers. It has been a long wait. Although we are still above the bottom of the S&P channel so it is not out of the question to move a little lower still, but I'm not...

We are not in a bear market. We are still correcting the ridiculous.

Those paying big dividends that will maintain their dividend come hell or high water. Divies put a floor under price. I notice P&G was up big against a down market the other day. Some fund is looking for a safe haven in TIDE. :D But let's not get carried away here we are still in correction...

LOL! x 3

Inmates are allowed to receive monitored mail. Why not send him your opinion and a cheery note once he's incarcerated.

So now, ridding ourselves by legal means of an incompetent, criminal, gangster President who gained the office by fraudulent means has become a "soft coup ," has it?

From what I've read recently, it is going to be eight lanes designed for heavy traffic.

Indeed, Nazi Party in Germany, Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterparte, was socialist and fascist. The German economic recovery under the Nazi's is, among other things, the single most dramatic example of the application of Keynesian economics that we have. Ironically, the Nazis...

Well, when I said, "inflation below 3 % is fine indefinitely." I am was referring to something that should be true in general, but wouldn't be true in specific individual cases. For example if a person's income does not increase at all with inflation eventually they will be destitute. They...

This is not identical to what I presume was the original Steele Report when it appeared, perhaps quite briefly, on the internet. This was shortly after McCain had revealed that he was in possession of a report on Trump and his activities involving the Russians. That report, if I recall...

Perfectly good reason.

Oh, no. That was my my best line. I'm crushed! It seemed an appropriate parallel at the time. The Nazis wanted to get rid of Jews and did everything they could to make their lives miserable, but they couldn't get rid of them until one day some bright Nazi came up with the "final solution"...
