George Gilder, technology writer and expert on entrepreneurship, discusses with Peter Robinson how wealth is essentially knowledge. If you don’t have time to watch the full interview skip to the last ten minutes which I found most rewarding.

I Like Nathalie Kosciusko-Morizet (NKM) as the Next Mayor of Paris
NKM will become the first woman mayor of Paris in France’s 2,000-year history. Socialist Anne Hidalgo will provide the opposition. The Socialist crowd has screwed up so badly that the tone is at a near-revolution stage. Socialist President Francois Hollande is utterly tone deaf and has not a clue regarding today’s fast changing French political […]
Kickin’ Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s Can Down the Road
The radical progressive Chicago mayor is an opponent of Second Amendment rights. The citizens of Chicago are under as much live fire as are any in America. The statistics are truly frightening. Yet Emanuel sees no reason his constituents should be able to protect themselves. Here you learn that James Craig, Detroit’s Chief of Police, […]
Retire like the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air?
Yes, indeed, New York police retirees have found just the shady lawyer to help them game the S.S. disability system for millions of dollars. What a great country! Have you read about the huge percentage of police and fire fighters who retire on disability? You may find an IXQUICK search on the subject of interest. […]

Kale is a known provider of live enzymes for the liver. The Food Babe blog explains that enzymes can trigger cancer-fighting chemicals that have the power to dissolve unhealthy cells throughout your body.

As Ben Bernanke prepares for life after the Fed one thing we learned from his predecessor Alan Greenspan is that they live in a different world than you and me. As Cato’s Chris Edwards points out, Mr. Bernanke’s easy money reasoning doesn’t quite match reality. In a speech on Friday, outgoing Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke defended […]
Bigger and Bigger Government Elizabeth Warren Style
Elizabeth Warren and her ilk always believe that every problem is solved by a bigger and more intrusive central government. Warren should give our Constitution the once over where she would learn that our Founders did not intend for central government intrusion in Washington. Working Americans have taken it in the neck over the last […]
Calling the Crash of ‘29
If you look at a enough charts it’s not hard to draw historical comparisons to fit your frame of mind. After reading an article comparing this market to 1928-29 I was reminded of Roger Babson, founder of my alma mater Babson College who correctly called the crash of ’29. His “ten commandments” ring true even […]
RIP Phil Everly
Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson Files Obamacare Suit
I spent some time with Senator Johnson at a recent Cato Institute policy conclave. I liked what I heard from the Senator, as did most of the event’s attendees. As such, I am not surprised that Senator Johnson is coming after Obama for egregious executive overreach. Obama thinks he can cut a special O’Care deal […]
