You can get by with a lot when you are writing outrageous things about a public personage. For example when Flynt's 'Hustler' magazine was sued by Falwell the court ruled that no reasonable person would believe that Falwell was having sex with his mother in an outhouse. Flynt won. But Trump...

If you do not live in the U.S., you may not be aware that the Obama administration as stopped the flow of illegals into the country to a trickle. The real problem is people over staying their visas. And there the Obama administration has greatly stepped up deportations. Obama's administration...

The people hired in academics are all here legally in the work force. The jobs are earned on the basis of qualifications and accomplishments in a highly competitive market. Salaries are not lower for non-citizens.

That's clearly wrong. We have to come down hard on employers who hire illegals. And of course we need to do everything reasonable to see that the illegals are not here in the first place!

I realize anecdotal data is of little use, but five nations were represented by the professors in my department when I worked in academia, and I heard no complaints. It was a great pleasure in fact to work with so many highly accomplished and very smart people. I don't see any reason to be...

Thanks for the data fhl. I am a little shocked to see military spending same as education as a % of GDP. Would like to see that figure for any other advance country. Suspect education should be much higher than military as percent of GDP. That data is really disturbing. Also, don't forget...

I want to make a small, but important point here. Panthers posted is correct,i.e., 'money is created out of debt', It is very important to recognize that this is, to an extent determined later by economic conditions, a reversible process. When actual printing occurs the money created is not...

Our biggest creditor would be the U.S. private sector.

Not sure about the third item, but I'm quite sure that the first two are not correct, and probably the third isn't either. But this in no way invalidates your point.

I am assuming the question is referring to public rather than private debt. Its core source is rooted mainly in a combination of three things 1. defense industry lobbying and propaganda; 2. The U.S. Medical Cartel; 3. Irrational fear.

What's the short interest right now? That's a measure of how dramatic the markets rise will be as all those shorts scramble to cover in the inevitable squeeze. . .

I'd like to respectfully suggest that you reconsider this statement of yours.

We are all fallible. Extreme one sided thinking, especially thinking that is out of step with half the population might be symptomatic of one's own fallibility.

Thank you.

I'm aware of this. I'm strictly opposed to going to war with anyone without congressional. approval. I am strictly opposed to American lives being put in harms way to defend U.S. corporate interests abroad. Let the corporations hire mercenaries if they will. I believe in absolute and strict...

You have a nice grasp of reality in my opinion, and you are clearly right about so many things! (If you wanted to run for public office, I could see myself supporting you.) Especially you are right about how the average citizen's eyes will glaze over if one drifts off into economic detail. I am...

I probably wrote something ineptly. Not unusual for me. I think in terms of supply-side stimulus versus demand side stimulus. And I'm a bit confused by the expression 'supply-side recession'. Did I write that? Despite my admiration for the two great economists Hayek and Friedman, it seems...

I don't think so, but we can disagree without being disagreeable. Under Clinton I would expect about 2% steady growth to a maximum of about 3%, while deficits continue to decline and we approach a balanced budget. I would expect government spending to increase in the areas of infrastructure...

I am not going to look at the video right now. Perhaps later, but I can tell you that since high tech video editing I don't trust videos, unless they come form a known reliable source and the origin and chain of handling is traceable. And even then I may not trust them. In particular I am going...
