We created it. Now how do we get people to forget our legacy?

  Is this woman FEELING “BLUE”? Context matters. In economics, one key context is Monetary Sovereignty, The U.S. government is Monetarily Sovereign. It controls the dollar, can create unlimited amounts with a keystroke, and can set its value against anything else. Over the years, the government repeatedly and arbitrarily has changed the dollar’s official value compared to gold and silver. Along…

I’m sorry for the length of this, but it’s too important for editing. Dean Blundell is a terrific writer and he wrote a magnificent article. I don’t want to mess it up. Note the headline: Trump Has Officially Lost The War In Iran And The Great Energy Collapse Of 2026 Is Coming. The article will tell you how a damn fool President, his damn fool assistants, and a damn fool Republican Party managed…

MAGAs, here for your amusement are more photos of Sleepy Joe Biden sleeping. How did this guy ever get people to vote for him? SLEEPY JOE BIDEN Hey, he’s old and sick. Give the geezer a break. He’s busy all day figuring out how to squeeze money from the people of America. How about that $1.5 billion his lawyer won for him, from his lawyer — he was awake all night dreaming up that scheme.

I tried to convince President Obama to go to war with Iran, but Obama was too smart. From the war games his generals ran, he knew that Iran would close oil shipments through the Strait and cause immeasurable damage. He also knew they wouldn’t surrender. So instead, the U.S. and all the other nations in the Security Council, including Russia and China, agreed on a no-nukes treaty, with strong…

Why are we having inflation? OK, so I’ve deported hundreds of thousands of good, honest, hard working farm workers, and now there are food shortages, And, OK, so I’ve added the cost of illegal tariffs to our imports, and now China is doing business with the countries that won’t do business with us, And, yes, I’ve completely screwed up worldwide oil shipments with my dumb war against Iran, and…

The economists have failed America by promulgating “flat earth” theories that prevent economic growth or support for the people. Government can be costly, but it’s worth the expense if it works to protect and enhance people’s lives. Unfortunately, today’s economists have completely failed in their duty to guide the government’s financial choices. Economics suffers from a language problem so…

Almost there. In a couple of weeks. Soon. A few days. We have all the cards. It’s a deal to make a deal to make a deal to make a deal. Ask Li’l Marco.

“Hey, look at me. After costing Americans billions of dollars in high fuel prices, and making enemies of former friends, and screwing up our economy, I got the deal I wanted.“ “And it’s almost as good–sort of– as the Obama deal I tore up a eight years ago. Yay, me!”“”

Trump’s handlers say he was just blinking. For you blinking fans, here is a lot of blinking to admire. Joe Biden says, I wish I could have slept that well.”  (Actually, he didn’t. There is nothing about Trump that Biden admires. Polls show America feels the same way.) 

In the quite unlikely event, that I, a 91-year-old, were to decide to run for President, here is what I would tell America: My fellow Americans; you are constantly warned that the federal debt is “too high,” “unsustainable,” or a “ticking time bomb.” Yet none of these warnings take into account the most important fact: The United States government creates dollars at will. It never can run short…

The military genius speaks. “I fired these people:” Charles Q. Brown Jr. — Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (top-ranking U.S. military officer)Lisa Franchetti — Chief of Naval Operations (top officer in the U.S. Navy)James Slife — Vice Chief of Staff of the Air ForceArmy JAG removed — Judge Advocate General of the Army (top Army military lawyer)Navy JAG removed — Judge Advocate General of…

The lies, corruption, and incompetence run so deep that I can’t even bring myself to comment anymore. What amazes me is that I still have friends who remain Trump supporters. I’ve stopped questioning their intelligence or integrity—because they have neither. This article might seem like the final straw, but there will be countless more, as Trump-MAGA criminality will never end while Republicans…

For many rich people, acquiring wealth has become so ingrained in their lives that they don’t feel comfortable unless they are searching for ways to acquire more. I have acquaintances like that. They already have far more than they ever will spend in their remaining years, yet they are frugal to the point of absurdity. They tip at the lower end of the scale. They give only minimally to charity.…

WIRED is one of the best magazines these days — interesting, comprehensive articles about technical subjects. There is nothing like it. But they sure blew it this time. An article in the May edition makes two main points: A gas tax holiday won’t lower gas prices much (true), and the gas tax supports road maintenance (false). Here are some excerpts and comments: Why a Federal Gas Tax Holiday Is a…
