Good! Yet another example of our assets being well managed under Democrat leadership.

What!? would you care to explain? There was no S&P 500 until sometime in the 1950s I think.

"economically worthless" is a good way to say it. Thank you. We must never lose sight of the difference between education and job training. While one of these two goals may not be as directly financially rewarding as the other, the other may be more important to society in the long run...

The lowest unemployment, I think, was during WWII. It was three-point something. But we are at a low point now compared to recent history. I agree with your thesis however, viz., it will be difficult to force unemployment up using interest rates alone considering the high demand for labor...

I'm not ready yet to bet everything on ET's favorites son(s). Of course I hope you are wrong about Trump being re-electable. What I am seeing now suggests that the Republicans, in whatever form they still exist, are going to reject a Trump attempt to seize the nomination. It should be...

This kind of crap, along with the stolen election, the grassy knoll, the explosives planted to bring down the twin towers, etc., etc. will always be with us. God help us. But at least in the case of Covid we have both the science and the statistics. We had neither in December of 2019. The...

And what exactly is wrong with that assuming the suggestion is being made to those whose health is badly deteriorating with no hope of recovery. It's an option, it's not mandatory. And if this is a new option, then yes, the word should be gotten out so that those who are tired of living like a...

My impression is that Canada Heath's problem is being misrepresented by anecdote. The real situation is different than would be assumed from these misleading anecdotes we read of. For example, consider the case of Mr. Foley who was deteriorating from a totally debilitating neural disorder, and...

Your tax proposal is a little too progressive for Republicans. They're OK with the sales tax, but they don't like a wealth tax, especially a progressive one, even though that might solve a lot of problems. A variation on this this theme that's worth considering, and one that some economists...

I failed to make it clear that Mr. Foley, who complains that the hospital wants to kick him out, has besides the marvelous option of assisted suicide, which any sane person in his position would choose, the option of transferring to a nursing home where the nearly 24-7 care he needs could be...

He's one of my favorite posters. I appreciate his wit, terseness and "to the 'pointedness' ". And I appreciate the way he puts Jackasses down with efficient and selective use of vocabulary.

Shocking! :rolleyes: Now we know why you "kind of like her".

How is it possible that such crap can be published? Who is behind this and what is their motive?

I take issue with Politico's adjective "inscrutable". She not inscrutable. She's as transparent as the air. She's there to do the bidding of her big campaign contributors. Inscrutable, NO; Deceitful, YES.

Let's hope you're right.

I don't see this making one wit of difference now, but it will be good for Democrats eventually to have shed themselves of her.. See wanted to vote as a "Republican" when she called herself a "Democrat." Now she'll vote the same and call herself an "Independent." She's not an Independent...

Keep in mind that the old 1913 fed, which was controlled by the private banks and was infuriated by Roosevelt's successful maneuver to devalue the gold backed dollar from $20 to $35 per oz. *, does not much resemble the 2022 fed. The 2022 Fed is now very much a government agency with private...

I too noticed this. And the fact that they are making butterflies and condors in this strategy look rather good leads me to be doubly suspicious.

You're revealing more about yourself here than you had perhaps intended.

It is a matter of priorities, wouldn't you think. Do you know anything other than the colorful name given to this arms dealer by the media, or indeed anything at all about what risk he poses to the U.S. if released versus what is to be gained by keeping him locked up here. Do you know what...
