“IRS? Tea Party Intimidation? I Knew Nothing. Nothing.” — Obama
President Obama says that he only learned of the IRS’ persecution of Tea Party groups late last week. For those of us who were big fans of the TV sitcom about a German POW camp, Hogan’s Heroes, this sounds strangely familiar. It sounds like Sergeant Schultz. He says that the accusation, if true, is “outrageous.” [...] READ MORE

7,000 Abandoned Buildings in Dayton
In Dayton, Ohio, there are 7,000 abandoned buildings. Because of federal asbestos controls, it costs $11,000 to demolish one building. So, they rot. The city is desperate. It cannot afford to demolish them. So, like a blight, the number of these buildings continues to grow. This is the Keynesian economy at work. This is recovery. [...] READ MORE

Ammunition Tight, Will Stay Tight
Ammunition manufacturers are not adding capacity. They think this run on ammo is temporary. So, buyers cannot buy it. The buyers want it. Retail sellers are imposing rationing: limits on purchases. There is no let-up in sight. Ammunition manufacturers are reporting record profits and sales, with increases that number in the double and sometimes triple [...] READ MORE

The CEO of the Biggest Bond Fund Says the Government Has Rigged the Game Against Investors
Bill Gross is the CEO of Pimco, the largest bond fund on earth. In his latest newsletter, he lays it on the line. The government is working against all investors.

FBI Monitors G-Mail, Yahoo, Hotmail, and Facebook Accounts
If you store your emails for over 180 days, the FBI says it can legally monitor them without a warrant. It took a Freedom of Information Act inquiry to find this out. This defies a ruling made in 2010 by a federal appeals court. An FBI “Operations Guide” makes exemptions for any email that stored [...] READ MORE

One of the Great Hatchet Job Movie Reviews of All Time
Rex Reed has outdone himself. He is known for hatchet job reviews, but what he did to The Great Gatsby will become the stuff of legend. I have seen two TV “trailers” — why are previews called trailers? — of this movie, and I concluded: “Stinker.” But Reed’s review persuaded me that I had underestimated [...] READ MORE

Feds Ban Blueprints for All-Plastic 3D Pistol
The Department of State, ever alert to national security threats, has banned the publication online of blueprints for a one-shot pistol. The pistol can be made at home, if you have a 3D printer.

Government Lures Naive College Students into Debt of $850 Billion
Average student debt for college is now $26,500. That is up 5% from last year. As with almost everything else in life, Pareto’s 20-80 rule governs student debt. About 20% of students with debt carry 80% of this debt. Median debt is half this: about $13,600. Half owe more; half owe less. What the stories [...] READ MORE

The debate over what actions actually constitute "terrorism," I believe, will become one of the defining ideological battles of our era. Terrorism is not a word often used by common people to describe aberrant behaviors or dastardly deeds; however, it is used by governments around the world to label and marginalize political enemies. More »

Macular Degeneration And Aspirin

According to Healing the Eye and Wellness Center, long-term use of aspirin is a factor in age-related macular degeneration.

Regular aspirin users are more likely to develop the "wet" form of age-related macular degeneration compared to people who take aspirin rarely or never. Aspirin is one of the most widely used drugs in the world. Millions of people with heart disease take a daily low dose of aspirin, which they believe will prevent heart attacks and stroke. Aspirin is actually a blood thinner and may have some merit as such, doctors say. More »
