If you believed America’s longest war, in Afghanistan, was coming to an end, be advised: It is not. Departing U.S. commander Gen. John Campbell says there will need to be U.S. boots on the ground “for years to come.” Making good on President Obama’s commitment to remove all U.S. forces by next January, said Campbell, “would put the whole mission at risk.” “Afghanistan has not achieved an enduring level of security and stability that justifies a reduction of our support. … 2016 could be no better and possibly worse than 2015.” Translation: A U.S. withdrawal would risk a Taliban takeover … Continue reading

Sexual problems, snoring, and bleeding gums are typically thought to be minor health problems. And so, most people who experience the issues tend to just ignore them. However, these seemingly insignificant problems are actually some common symptoms of heart disease – the number one killer in the world. When the heart and arteries begin to fail, symptoms manifest in otherwise unrelated parts in the body, revealed Dr John Erwin, a cardiologist from Texas A&M Health Science Center. Dr Erwin revealed six of the most common – and most surprising – symptoms of heart disease that people need to be aware … Continue reading

Jim Grant appeared on CNBC’s Closing Bell and unhesitatingly said he thinks the US economy has already gone into recession: I think we are in one…I think there’s a defensible case to be made that a recession began late last year.” Grant echoed what Peter Schiff has been saying. In his Gold Videocast last week, Peter also said he thinks the recession started last year: I believe eventually the government will acknowledge that this greater recession began in the fourth quarter of 2015, the very quarter that the Fed chose to raise interest rates.” The Daily Bell hosts didn’t seem … Continue reading

The existence of the internet may not be news in most places, nor that it does things astonishing to those alive before the net and boring to those who came after. But I wonder whether the net might have underlying consequences perhaps not well understood. In particular, I wonder how to measure the influence of the internet in Battambang, Bali, Bukittinggi, or Tierra del Fuego. Or in small towns in Mexico, such as Jocotepec, down the road from me. Fifty years ago, such places existed in near-perfect isolation from the world at large. Nobody, bright or otherwise, had much chance … Continue reading

The key take-away: focus on owning income-producing assets, not a primary residence. One truism of investing is to follow the lead of those who are building wealth.This chart reveals the foundation of the wealth of the top 1% and the next 9%; business equity, i.e. ownership of enterprises. Compare the assets boxed in red: The wealthiest households’ primary wealth is businesses and shares in businesses. The bottom 90% depend on the family residence as a store of wealth, and on debt as a means of funding asset purchases and consumption. Primary residences were once a reliable store of wealth–a store … Continue reading

The other day, Donald Trump mentioned that Jeb Bush’s brother, George W.

Eminent Domain, of course, runs counter to private property values, which are dearly held by many Republican voters.

One of the biggest viral stories on social media last week was a laughably idiotic Finnish “how to” video that ostensibly demonstrates the proper way for women to defend themselves against rapists. The video, produced by state-run broadcaster Yle, reveals the top three police-certified methods that women should use against an attacker: “No,” “Push,” and “Handbag.” In the video, a young blond woman, trudging her way down a snowy street, is accosted by a white ne’er-do-well (needless to say, the Finnish media would never dare portray the attacker as a nonwhite immigrant or “refugee”). Upon being grabbed by the unwelcome … Continue reading
