China Again? (Still ?)
There seem to be stories almost every day about the pitiful condition of China’s economy, and not just in the Journal. On Fox News last week, they reported that in one month, January, China had 5.1% inflation, and not...
Film Review
(My Birthday. I’m 86 today) The film is “1917.” From Tucker Carlson’s “Ship of Fools,” page 92: “On an unexceptional June morning in 1914, a second string Austrian nobleman...
Revolutionary War Counterfeiting
Believe it or not, while George Washington was desperately fighting the Revolutionary War against England, the British Red Coats were not only better equipped, better clothed, and better fed than Washington’s rag tag...
Gold or Silver?
I’ve written about this dozens of times over the last 43 years, and now I’ll do it again, because people are always asking us what to buy. The lowest ratio I have seen, was 16 to 1 in 1980, which is what it has...
Healthy China?
Actually, the current Corona virus, which has killed as of this writing, 27, with many hundreds ill, originated in China, along with countless other diseases and ills. China has lost millions of pigs and hogs due to...
Martin Luther King
Actually, Martin Luther King Day, is, as far as I know, the only federal holiday not concerned with a president or a holiday such as Thanksgiving or the 4th of July. I resent that, as do a lot of other people, even such as...
Japan's Lost 30 Years
A major article in January 2nd Journal is headlined just that. “Japan’s Lost 30 Years Give Pause to Those Looking at The U.S.” A picture showing dejected Japanese is sad, and an accompanying graph...
Gold Prediction
I don’t make predictions, as I have written over and over again, but a six column, half page piece in the Journal (Wall Street) last week, complete with graphs, is headlined “GOLD IS HEADED FOR ITS BEST YEAR SINCE...
Four of a Kind
I recently picked up a book at a yard sale by and about Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. It’s a good read throughout, but close to the end, when he was nominated for the Supreme Court, it was horrible what he...
Where did the Money Go?
It seems as though trillions of paper currencies around the world have simply disappeared. Euros, dollars, pesos, etc, by the hundreds of millions have vanished. Governments are madly printing more to replace the...
Column by Wayne Allyn Root
Me forwarding someone else's column is rare, but this one is so pertinent with current nonsense perpetrated by the Democrats, that it needs to be read, and for you readers to forward it everywhere. - Don Stott...
Negative Interest?
Negative interest? Never heard of it? Sounds strange? A negative interest rate at a bank or institution, means simply that there is a charge for you to deposit your dollars in such a place. You get no...
How Silver Bought Drugs
Silver may buy drugs now, however this is not about 2019, but a time beginning over a hundred years ago. It concerned China during the Qing Dynasty, which ran from the mid 1800’s to 1911. 72 years earlier, in...
How Could Trump Lose?
The radical left, and for that matter the entire Democratic Party, have pulled out all the stops to remove Donald Trump from office. They have used fake news constantly, the Mueller Report, and now are trying to impeach...
Little Orphan Annie
I am reminded of the fact that “The Wizard of Oz” had political meanings, as I wrote in the past, but that a comic strip also was based on the artist-creator’s politics also, and that was “Little Orphan...
11/11/11
A simple murder started one of the greatest wars in history. World War one began as follows, and if you have never heard about the total absurdity of it all, here’s a brief synopsis. On June 14, 1914, Austrian...
Musical Chairs
A few years ago, in a column I mentioned ‘musical chairs,’ and compared them to paper currencies which have quickly gone down so quickly, that it was impossible to protect one’s self from them. In the game...
Speed Limits
The concept of a maximum speed limit on a highway has always fascinated me. Since everyone on the road has different capabilities and drives a vehicle with different safety and efficiency characteristics, how can the...
The Statue of Liberty
On December 23, 1667, a 14.717 acre Island in New York Harbor was sold to Isaac Bedloe. In 1732, his estate sold it to the U.S. Government for an undisclosed price. The island had always been called “Oyster...
Dollar Doomed?
On and on it goes: It’s not difficult to find a site on the internet which will groan and swear that the U.S. economy and dollar is trash, and within a few weeks or months, it’ll all be over. As a WWII...
