I was talking with a client the other day who lives in Mississippi. He said Malcolm Butler is the pride of the state. Read this story all the way through, as I did with my kids, and you’ll know why. The coach plunked down in his seat, immersed in the navy, electric green and wolf […]
Bespoke Gold
You should be able to buy a fine suit with an ounce of gold. Good luck with that at Marc Allen. Over the years I’ve been fortunate to work with Marc Streisand, owner of Marc Allen fine clothiers in Providence, RI. Marc travels the world-over in search of hard to find fabrics and crafts bespoke […]
M855 Ammo Ban
You don’t want to run out of ammo. But that’s what could happen to M855 ammo if the BATF’s announced plan to reclassify 223/5.56 (M855) takes hold. There’s nothing like a government planned ban to clear the shelves. You may recall how hard it was to buy .22LR caliber ammo just a few years ago. […]
Free-Trade Death Trap
You would never give away your business after years of creating value. You would also never purposefully devalue your life’s savings. Right?

Obama’s Blank Check
My friend Gene Healy eviscerates the planned AUMF in his piece Obama’s ISIS AUMF: Codifying “Mission Creep.” Congress should take a hard look at the president’s request before committing American lives and money to another foreign entanglement. Healy writes: What little congressional debate we’ve seen so far on the president’s new war hardly smacks of “Profiles in […]

GM
You may recall it was former hedge fund manager Harry Wilson who did the Federal government’s dirty work in turning GM into Government Motors. The big winners were the unions. Now he is representing four hedge funds elbowing his way into GM on behalf of shareholders. Really? Wilson said “General Motors Co. needs to be […]
