Our president, the rogue, loose cannon, drain-the-swamp guy that we the people elected, must work with the Democrats for the good of the country.
So, you voted for Hillary and hate “The Donald,” think him a sexist, a racist, an ignoramus -- and those are your “nice” ways to describe him.
OK, now...
Even the best strategy for dealing with North Korea could be bad news for the stock market and economy. Of course, the worst strategy is even scarier. If we somehow end up in a fight with North Korea, millions of people in South Korea could be killed. According to the NY Times, North Korea could...

The website above is the one I trust because I know the American Red Cross, have donated blood to them for years and having also received help from them.
I also trust the Salvation Army for some...
The old folk tune written by Pete Seeger mimics the Bible* and thus acknowledges the reality gained through millennia of man’s experience on planet Earth. Here is the gist of that song:
“To everything (turn, turn, turn)
There is a season (turn, turn, turn)
And a time to every purpose, under...
I don’t have all the answers, but no one human does. So here’s the plan: Allow unlimited immigration to the United States with the caveat that all males and females immediately enlist in the military, branch of their choice, as a price for admission. Once they serve a four year contract, which...

Steve MacIntyre, Yamail: A “Divergence” Problem” The original IPCC “hockey stick” graph was the centerpiece of Michael Mann’s “proof” that mankind was responsible for global warming—research that was discredited because it relied on incorrect statistics. Before then, Mann’s information was used many times and by many scientists in other research. When correct data was applied, the hockey stick disappears.
No matter how much proof is offered that mankind has had minimal or no impact on global temperature, there are those who would still rather believe gross distortions and lies based on science fraud than the truth, wrote environmental scientist Dr. Michael S. Coffman in the Fall...
Rather than write about the economy, or the still-rising stock market, or the financial policies of soon-to-be President Mike Pence, I want to talk about an important family-level financial planning topic: Debt.
Imagine that you want to buy a slick new car, or a new house, or toy. Should you use...
The Trump economy continues to mirror the Obama economy: Slow and steady. But that might not be bad news. But before I bring you the silver lining, here’s the problem: Since 2010, which is after we started to recover from the financial crisis, our GDP has only averaged 2% growth. If you compare...
Despite the unimpressive economy and the drama engulfing the political world, the stock market is remarkably calm. But that’s nothing new. Since the Financial Crisis, the markets have shrugged off a weak economy, the Fiscal Cliff, the Sequester, a government shutdown, multiple crises in Europe,...
When most of us are in polite circles we mind our Ps and Qs. When the polite company leaves, or when surrounded by allies one can trust, the truth rears its sometimes ugly head.
Not so with Donald Trump. When he speaks, the left is overjoyed because, as was said by his supporters during the...
