If I had to describe the Boston Bruin’s early season struggles it would be “injuries and youth.” But, the one area where there should be stability and senior leadership is in the position of goaltender. That has certainly not been the case with the lack of performance from veteran goaltender Tuukka Rask. The Boston Globe’s Fluto […]

The G20 Climate Thing—a Total Farce
Originally posted July 11, 2017. Want to know what some of the major countries in the world are up to as part of the Paris Agreement? Francis Menton in the Manhattan Contrarian has done the legwork for you. Just Google the letters “INDC” (Intended Nationally Determined Contribution) and the name of a country to see […]
Is America Prepared for a Second Cold War with China?
Reflecting on President Trump’s recent trip to Asia, Pat Buchanan asks “Again, are we Americans up for a Second Cold War, and if so, why? And why is it America’s job, 12 time zones away, to make sure China tends to her own knitting?” Buchanan continues at The American Conservative: While China is a great […]
Maker of Russia’s Most Lethal Jets Eyeing Unmanned UAV Market
The company responsible for building some of Russia’s most lethal fighter jets is turning its attention to Unmanned Arial Vehicles. The Russian Aircraft Corporation (RAC) MiG is working on creating shock and reconnaissance drones, some of which could be fighter sized aircraft, reports TASS News.

If You Like Classic/Prog Rock, You’ll Love Greta Van Fleet
If you like classic rock, then you need to check out Greta Van Fleet. My new favorite classic rock band from Frankenmuth, Michigan consists of 21-year old twins Jake (guitarist) and Josh (lead vocals) Kiszka, their 18-year old brother Sam (bass) and drummer Danny Wagner, age 18. Thank you, Neil Shah at the WSJ, for […]
Why are American Taxpayers Paying to Defend Wealthy Allies?
The question of whether or not America should be spending more now on defense than it was during the height of the Cold War seems silly when asked, but then what explains America’s massive defense budget? A policy of providing security for wealthy nations that could secure themselves has left America spending more on defense […]
Bill Clinton’s Shamelessness
If President Clinton had done the decent thing, he would have resigned over the Monica Lewinsky scandal and taken his shame on his own back. Instead, he defiantly brazened it out and made the country complicit in his classic harassment, assault, abuse of power, and perjury. How did Democrats handle their president having an affair […]
Neocons Won’t Accept that Iraq was a Massive Blunder
Daniel Larison writes at The American Conservative that, despite the overwhelming evidence that it has been a debacle, neocons will not admit that Iraq was a massive blunder. With all the reasons Americans initially supported the war debunked (think weapons of mass destruction) and no reasonable expectation of any outcome beneficial to the United States […]
Nescient Millionaire 20-Somethings’ Moral Superiority
What do the NFL, ESPN and higher-education administrative cadre have in common? Exhaustion, writes Victor Davis Hanson. They all have forgotten their original mission: respectively, athleticism; sports commentary; and inductive thinking, civic education, and disinterested inquiry. Instead, given their money and adulation, sports and colleges puffed themselves up as Olympians who from high could sermonize […]
What do I think of Bitcoin? Part I
I’ve been asked the question “What do you think of Bitcoin,” as much as any question I’ve received about my website www.yoursurvivalguy.com or my series on the S&P 500. I’ve been in the weeds studying bitcoin (the currency) and Bitcoin (blockchain tech) and I’ll tell you, I haven’t had that “Aha!” religious-like moment experienced by, […]
