Nicholas Kristof is correct to say that men should not be written off, but for the wrong reasons: With women making far-reaching gains, there’s a larger question. Are women simply better-suited than men to today’s jobs? The Atlantic raised this issue provocatively in this month’s issue with a cover story by Hanna Rosin bluntly entitled, […]
I expected Obama to be worse than Bush in many ways. I did not, however, expect his administration’s response to a natural or environmental disaster to be even more incompetent than the Bush administration’s response to Hurricane Katrina: Sixteen barges sat stationary today, although they were sucking up thousands of gallons of BP’s oil as […]
I find these administrative shenanigans to be more than a little amusing: More than 22,620 Texas secondary students who stopped showing up for class in 2008 were excluded from the state’s dropout statistics because administrators said they were being home-schooled, according to Texas Education Agency figures. But that’s where the scrutiny of this growing population […]
At least with Obama, you know perfectly well that he wants to turn USA into a quasi-socialist third-world hellhole for the benefit of Goldman Sachs and the rest of Wall Street: Dobson pulls Grayson endorsement, backs Paul Just a week after backing Trey Grayson in the Kentucky Senate race, evangelical leader Dr. James Dobson pulled […]
Vox Day interviewed John Williams of Shadowstats on April 26, 2009. As of February 2010, his alternate statistics reported -4.5% GDP, 9.8% CPI-U, 21.2% unemployment, and -2.5% M3 for the U.S. economy. What is your basis for believing the official statistics underestimate unemployment and inflation? I’ve been a consulting economist for more than 25 years. […]
Carbon dioxide is “a dangerous pollutant“: Officials gather in Copenhagen this week for an international climate summit, but business leaders are focusing even more on Washington, where the Obama administration is expected as early as Monday to formally declare carbon dioxide a dangerous pollutant. Consider the following chain of logic: 1) Environmentalists and progressives believe […]
This time, it’s in New Zealand: The New Zealand Government’s chief climate advisory unit NIWA is under fire for allegedly massaging raw climate data to show a global warming trend that wasn’t there. The scandal breaks as fears grow worldwide that corruption of climate science is not confined to just Britain’s CRU climate research centre. […]
Perhaps the Fort Hood murders are unrelated to the Global Struggle Against Violent Extremism and it’s just another disgruntled postal worker or three run amok, but it would appear that after only eight years, the terrorists have finally figured out the flaw in the clever Rumsfeldian strategy of fighting them there so we don’t have […]
The Return of the Great Depression It can quite reasonably be said that at no point in economic history has technical knowledge ever been less relevant to being a good economist than today. Mainstream economics is in complete disarray. In the UK, economists are reeling in shock as their predicted third-quarter recovery has failed to […]
This is the official starting gun for the Amazon book bomb for The Return of the Great Depression. If you’re interested in buying it, either for yourself or for someone else, I’d encourage you to order a copy from Amazon in the next 12 hours. Its initial ranking was 19,795 overall and 50 in Economic […]
