Given the Fed's extremely easy policies, runaway government spending and shortages of many commodities, inflation pressures are building and destined to get muc
At the FT, economist Thomas Palley goes metaphor crazy arguing that we're heading for a double dip, and that the possibility of a Second Great Depression should not be written off.
He's just getting started. And if this fellow is any indication of the kind of judges we can expect to populate our federal courts, I guarantee you we will spend the next decade or more scratching our heads at the idiotic leftist decisions that will
The U.S. should move in the direction of socialism but the country's "white majority" opposes welfare since such programs largely would benefit minorities, especially blacks and Hispanics, argued President Obama's newly confirmed regulatory czar, Cas
It took 25 years longer than George Orwell thought for the slogans of 1984 to become reality.
“War is Peace,” “Freedom is Slavery,” “Ignorance is Strength.

What's happening to the dollar? That's the question dominating the world's financial markets. Last week the US currency fell, on a trade-weighted basis, to a fresh 14-month low. The dollar's decline is now gaining momentum.
We know that gold is soaring.And we know the dollar is slumping. But, did you know that year-to-date, while the S&P 500 is up 18 percent—a great showing no doubt—gold is up even more.The precious metal is up 21 percent. In other words, measured in tr
