There are currently about 54 million millennials entering the workforce in the US, and for many of them, the idea of buying a home isn’t an immediate goal. That’s because the majority (70%) are under an enormous amount of student debt. Large school loans are motivating many millennials to put off their first home purchase until they pay down some or all of their education expenses. The delay is having an immediate impact on the housing markets. Currently, student loan debt has reached $1.3 trillion, which is about $3,800 for every person in the US, according to an article in … Continue reading →

Denouncing Russian air strikes on Aleppo as “barbaric,” Mike Pence declared in Tuesday’s debate: “The provocations by Russia need to be met with American strength. … The United States of America should be prepared to use military force, to strike military targets of Bashar Assad regime.” John McCain went further: “The U.S. … must issue an ultimatum to Mr. Assad — stop flying or lose your aircraft … If Russia continues its indiscriminate bombing, we should make clear that we will take steps to hold its aircraft at greater risk.” Yet one gets the impression this is bluster and bluff. … Continue reading →

Given the strong link between leadership and psychopathy, questioning the sanity of our future leaders might not be so preposterous. One study, for example, found high rates of superficiality, insincerity, and an inability to empathize in a number of business CEOs (one in five). In order to be successful at the level of a world-renowned politician or head of a powerful conglomeration, one often has to take actions that can severely affect others. Being able to do so without feeling guilt or remorse is an advantage in both the business and political world. When it comes to Hillary Clinton, she … Continue reading →

The top 50 dad skills have been revealed – but less than half of fathers reckon they have mastered them all. Driving while distracted, keeping calm during family arguments, and fixing punctures topped the list of skills all dads should attain by the time their kids are teenagers. Fathers should also know how to erect a tent, plaster holes in walls and set up a Wi-Fi network, according to the poll of 2,000 dads. The chart also includes putting up bunk beds, flying kites and making a good bacon sarnie. Other essential skills include fixing toys, replacing bike chains, tying … Continue reading →

I am old enough to know where the slang phrase “drinking the Kool-Aid” originated. It originated from a mass suicide event known as the Jonestown Massacre which took place in November of 1978. It isn’t right to call it a “massacre” because it wasn’t one in the true sense of the word. It was the mass suicide of about 909 members of an extreme religious cult known as The Peoples Temple, led by the delusional fanatic Jim Jones. I still remember seeing this on TV as a kid. There were special news bulletins about it interrupting broadcasts. This will sound creepy, but back then, … Continue reading →

This is an excerpt from the new book, The Impeachment of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton for High Crimes in Syria and Libya, by Michael Ostrowski and James Ostrowski (2016). The American interventions into Libya and Syria happened in a troubled part of the world with numerous and seemingly intractable problems that were in many ways the result of prior unwise American foreign policy.  This is particularly true with Syria.  The Iraq War launched by George Bush in 2003 destabilized the artificial state of Iraq.  It is widely recognized that Saddam Hussein was a brutal dictator who held Iraq together and under control by brute … Continue reading →

Chinese yuan is the only currency on the horizon which can challenge the US dollar to become the world’s reserve currency in the future, says financial commentator and international investor Jim Rogers. The elite club of reserve currencies used by the International Monetary Fund has a new member, the Chinese yuan. The list previously had four major world currencies the US dollar, the euro, the British pound and the Japanese Yen. The Chinese yuan, also known as ‘renminbi’, is the fifth most-used currency in international transactions. Until 2005 it was tied to the US dollar meaning that when the dollar … Continue reading →

What must the world think watching the US presidential campaign? Over time US political campaigns have become more unreal and less related to voters’ concerns, but the current one is so unreal as to be absurd. The offshoring of American jobs by global corporations and the deregulation of the US financial system have resulted in American economic failure. One might think that this would be an issue in a presidential campaign. The neoconservative ideology of US world hegemony is driving the US and its vassals into conflict with Russia and China. The risks of nuclear war are higher than at … Continue reading →

Faithful readers of this column know that I am not timid about reporting on the exponential increase of police abuse currently taking place in our country. This tragic phenomenon is a clear and present danger to the overall health and wellbeing of our society. And it is not a fabrication of “leftists.” The abuse of power by many police officers is very real. And as I have attempted to point out previously, the reason for this sad state of affairs is largely due to the recruitment and training of police officers today. More and more frequently, the ranks of civilian … Continue reading →

Why can’t you just buy a new car? I mean, without the middleman. Without having to go through a dealer? You can buy almost anything else directly – including very big ticket items like a house. It’s not illegal, in any event, to buy most things this way. Buyer and seller. Just the two of you. But with new cars, it’s different. There are three of you. The manufacturer of the car, the dealership (a franchise of the manufacturer) and then you. It is actually illegal in most states to buy a car directly from the company that made it. Laws … Continue reading →

Author, Ed Klein talked about his new book Guilty as Sin: Uncovering New Evidence of Corruption and How Hillary Clinton and the Democrats Derailed the FBI Investigation on Thursday’s Breitbart News Daily with SiriusXM host, Alex Marlow. Marlow said he thought the most important of the book’s many detailed chapters concerned “the palace intrigue” between the Obamas and Clintons, including the revelation that the Obamas “were well aware of Hillary Clinton’s health issues.” As Marlow put it, Guilty as Sin suggests Clinton’s shaky health was one of the reasons the Obamas supported her because “they think they could perhaps have … Continue reading →

Last week partisan shill Congressman Jerry Nadler called on the FBI director to “investigate Roger Stone for his ties to Wikileaks and Julian Assange”. It’s an abuse of power and a witch hunt worthy of Sen. Joe McCarthy. If Jerry Nadler had left any sense of decency he’d be ashamed. The still corpulent Congressman now admits the questions were fed to him by Clinton money-launderer David Brock. In a scathing article by New York Post’s Paul Sperry, we learn more about the FBI’s leniency towards prime material witnesses and targets in their investigation into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.  … Continue reading →
