At The American Spectator, Mytheos Holt explains Google’s rampant hypocrisy in first refusing to supply software services to the U.S. military, and second, to then supply the Chinese government with software tools that will help it oppress the country’s people and possibly even spy on them. Holt writes: Imagine the following scenario: A group of […]
Getting on the Map with Gold
I have been a longtime supporter of including gold in diversified portfolios. Gold is a safe-haven asset, an inflation and currency hedge, and a hedge against geopolitical turmoil and general market turbulence. It is an insurance policy of sorts. When everything else is down, gold is often up. Gold’s counterbalancing effects can dull the pain […]
Democrats Imploding on the Stretch Run
What was at one point thought to be an impending Blue Wave that would strike down any vulnerable GOP candidates who got in its path, has turned out to look as though it will be more of a ripple. As Reuters reports, Democrats’ road to control of the Senate has become difficult, and a primary […]
Richard C. Young: Florida Needs Rick Scott’s Energy
As a near three-decade Florida resident, I can tell you that Senator Bill Nelson is a tired old war horse. In fact, Nelson epitomizes the words “career politician.” Nelson must be swept away. I know Governor Rick Scott from his standing-room-only visits to Cato Institute events in south Florida, especially my all-time favorite Cato masterpiece […]
Treating China as an Enemy is a Risk
At The American Conservative, Cato Institute senior fellow, Doug Bandow explains that treating China like an enemy risks turning the country into one. He suggests that rather than antagonize China, America should work to ensure a free future for its people. He writes: The PRC is likely to pose a major challenge to America. But […]
Is the Trump-Neocon Transformation Inevitable?
In light of the President’s recent remarks about Secretary of Defense Mattis, Robert W. Merry examines the transformation of Trump’s anti-war campaign rhetoric into that which today is guided by neocons John Bolton and Mike Pompeo. The question then becomes, is Trump’s neocon transformation inevitable, or will the instinctual aversion to war he showed on […]
Get Rich Slow with This Strategy
Most “get rich quick” schemes end up turning into “get poor quick” schemes. Reach too deep into the risk pool and you’re likely to fall in. I knew that 30 years ago, and in 1988 I wrote: I’m an ultra-conservative investor at heart…and by intent. I know my reputation in the industry puts me in […]
Gov. Rick Scott at the Cato Policies Initiative
UPDATE: This post was originally run on February 11, 2011. Governor Rick Scott wowed the hard to impress audience at the Cato Institute Policies Initiative at The Ritz Carlton in Naples the day before. As Scott fights for a seat in the Senate, Floridians should remember all the hard work he has done for the […]
Trump Trade Deal Makes North America the World’s Oil Epicenter
In The American Spectator, Stephen Moore outlines the importance of the USMCA, the new trade deal negotiated by the Trump administration to replace the failed NAFTA. Moore writes: For those on the left and right who were certain that Donald Trump’s presidency meant the end of global free trade… think again. Though Trump’s critics have […]
Beto Misjudges the Moment, and the People of Texas
At Real Clear Politics, William Murchison suggests that Robert “Beto” O’Rourke has misjudged his moment, and the people of Texas. They simply aren’t interested in a liberal Democrat who supported the unproven allegations against Judge Kavanaugh. Murchison writes: There are tides in the affairs of men, we are reliably assured, which, taken at the flood, […]
