The Six Biggest JACKPOT EVENTS of the Next 10 Years

The Burden of Productivity

US Unemployment and the Ubiquitous “Zombie Job” Market

Bill Bonner Reckoning today from Baltimore, Maryland... Yesterday was Memorial Day. We said a prayer for all the brave men and women who died in war...after all, we have a heart! But the brain never quite gets in sync. When it looks at what those soldiers were doing, it wishes they had never left home. America’s wars were almost all ‘wars of choice,’ says a friend. “They were fought to expand the power of the empire. The Mexican-American war was a bald-faced grab for Mexican land. The ‘Civil War’ was a battle to bring the South into submission. The US took Puerto Rico and the Philippines in the Spanish American war. President Wilson took the US into WWI simply to throw our weight around in Europe; we had no dog in that fight. He botched up the peace so badly that the Europeans went to war again 20 years later to sort it out. That was a war — WWII in Europe — that the US didn’t have to get involved in either.
