…spend money over the last 11 months. And, the President has done nothing to lower the deficit. He is even saying that the current rate of spending may create a prolonged recession. Accordingly, what we should have is mounting inflation, almost to the point of hyper inflation. But, that is not happening. In fact, we are teetering on deflation which is even worse than rampant inflation. Based upon all of this, I do not believe that Charley Blaine i…

…cute the Viet Nam War until we could achieve “peace with honor,” Nixon was quite progressive in establishing the EPA, waging the war on cancer and enforcing wage and price controls in a failed New Deal-esque attempt to combat inflation. His “Better Dead Than Red” street cred allowed him to negotiate progressively with the Soviet Union on an ICBM treaty, hug Leonid Brezhnev in public and, of course, “only Nixon could go to China.” His détente with…

…cy is the key to restoring growth to America. But that cheap dollar policy actually only discourages the investment in America essential to getting the economy booming, as investors fear lower returns from a declining dollar, inflation, and the boom and bust cycles that such policies cause. Reagan favored a strong dollar policy that slew a historic inflation, and drew skyrocketing investment capital to America from around the world, resulting in …

…report found that European monetary policy since 1999 “has tended to correspond more closely with German economic conditions than for the euro area as a whole.” Ramesh Ponnuru added that a looser monetary policy could lead to inflation in Germany and France whereas those weaker nations will have to see lower real wages if there is no additional expansion of monetary policy by the European Central Bank. Ponnuru asked if the various weaker nations…

…of the Obama Coalition”, Thomas Edsall, by pushing “takers” into a non-working, entitlement, nanny state, socialistic philosophical ideology. Republicanism is not lost but it is certainly a candidate for a “Progressive Lite” label….or what as “Congress is Useless” all about? http://www.hollywoodrepublican.net/2011/11/congress-is-useless/ And all that is supported in academia today is under the myth of “academic freedom”. Collectivism and totalit…

… of these circumstances, the use of the word hero is trivialized. A deeper problem is that ides of myth, legend and story hold a society’s culture together. The concept of the hero is central to these. By misapplying the hero label and refraining from using it when needed takes our culture in the wrong direction. I hope we can recover the sense of propriety about who we call a hero and what they did to be considered brave before it’s too late. A …

…my. Keynesian economics did not work in the 1930’s. It did not work in Japan recently. And, it will not work now. Deficit spending will create just the opposite effect. If you pump what will be inflated money into the system, inflation will run rampant and the buying power of the American populace will be lowered. Once this happens, the recession will deepen thereby causing more layoffs and job losses. You must allow the economic cycle to play it…

…st as important today as they were 28 years ago when he became president. In fact, Reagan inherited an economy from President Carter that was arguably worse than the economy that President-elect Obama is being handed. In 1980 Inflation was at 13.6%, now it is approximately 2.8%. Unemployment was at 7.1%, now it’s at 6.5%. Mortgage Rates were at approximately 14% and now they are under 6.5%. This is definitely not the worst economic crisis since t…

…subsidies in the housing market. We know how well that worked out. Here’s a little quiz. What do these three things have in common: college tuition, housing prices and medical costs? Yes, they all have risen above the rate of inflation. And, they are all government subsidized. Coincidence? Of course not. Obama’s economically illiterate student loan program Yet, our economically illiterate President feels the way to make things affordable is to in…

…or any serious funding. Obama is quick to point out that he is allocating $6 billion for the program over the next five years, but officials are just as quick in mentioning that this additional money would barely keep up with inflation for NASA’s current annual budget of $17.3 billion. Skeptics also point out that the earliest possible mission would not occur before 2025. So the net consensus is that manned spaceflight to Mars has little ch…
