Another Nail In the Keynesian Coffin
RealClearMarkets - Another Nail In the Keynesian Coffin
"The BEA reported that its first estimate of 1Q2011 real GDP growth was 1.8%.
This represented a dramatic fall from 4Q2010 growth of 3.1%.
What no one seems to have noticed is that the slowdown occurred in the face of another large dose of Keynesian stimulus"

"Why is it legal and “proper” to shoot an unarmed man in the face, while enhanced interrogation methods, such as waterboarding, are deemed improper?
You might recall, in fact, that waterboarding was banned by President Barack Obama back in January of 2009"

"Of course.
If you look at these decisions in toto – from “climate change” to “public service broadcasting” – we are about two judges away from having the entire program of leftist conventional wisdom ruled a state church."

Inevitability of Greek Default on Sovereign Debt
Instapundit » Blog Archive » Inevitability of Greek Default on Sovereign Debt
“The trading patterns of Greek bonds indicate that traders expect a restructuring, and they think it will be messy.”
And note to International Business Transactions law students – choice of law and forum clauses matter. “Greece’s negotiating position is improved by the fact that about 90 percent of its outstanding bonds specify that Greek law will determine any disputes — and of course Greece can change its laws if needed.”"
It seems the Greeks are taking a page from Barry's rules of finance.

Crazifornia: California leads the nation … in failure
Crazifornia: California leads the nation … in failure The Daily Caller
"At least Californians who live in Riverside County will be getting some relief from the public employee pension crisis.
No, the county hasn’t successfully shut down employee demands; rather, it’s shut up its board of supervisors.
The supervisors just voted 3-2 that they should avoid publicly discussing the details of ongoing talks with the county’s unions, including not telling the public what they’d like to see happen at the negotiating table.
The two supervisors who have been most vocal about having to curb the rising cost of public employee pensions voted against the measure, while the three who voted for it tried to explain how they’re not muzzling the public debate"
Amazing!
Muskegon's county commissioners have NEVER publically discussed public union details before or AFTER the contracts are signed.
Just silence from those elected and given the responsibility....and the compensation to represent the citizens.
