Here are some points to note from this past week:
- Two H.S. Students Accused of Counterfeiting Money
- Students, please, such activity should only be conducted by professionals.
- The Fed is Now Peddling Inflation
- Political Opportunists vs. Technology Innovators
- Reverse Discrimination Lawsuit Heard About New Haven Firefighters
- The Coming of the Fourth American Republic
- Drama at GE Shareholder Meeting
- Gee gosh, pray tell, why would anyone be upset by the insightful remarks of
neurology expertactress, Janeane Garofalo, and excellent journalism of MSNBC anchor, Keith Olbermann? If protesting runaway spending is racist, then what is making statements like: "It's not about bashing Democrats. It's not about taxes. This is about hating a black man in the White House.", tea party protesters are neurotic and that any women in the Republican party are clearly suffering from Stockholm Syndrome? - Surely, it's fair to ask: In Time of Victory, Why is the Left So Angry?
- Jack Bauer can't stop 'The Goldman Conspiracy'
- The Quiet Coup
- The Case for a Federalism Amendment
- A 2% Inflation Rate?
- Sounds so sensible, until as Paul Volker pointed out, a 2% inflation rate will, over a generation's time, erode half the value of savings.
- Finally: It May Be Time For the Fed to Go Negative
- You call it "negative interest rates", we call it theft. (Hard to believe Mankiw is an economics professor at Harvard!).
