202. Political Class Voodoo Economic Myths and Lies - Myth #1 and Myth #2
July 19, 2010
Infamous Nazi Joseph Goebbels once said that if you tell and repeat a lie enough times, it will eventually become the truth. So it is with politicians and economic behavior and theory.

204. Exposing The Myth: "I'm From The Government And I'm Here To Help You"
June 28, 2010
Probably at some point in our nation's past, this was a true statement: "I'm from the government and I am here to help you."

June 22, 2010
"Meet The New Boss, Same As The Old Boss." This line is from a classic Who song, "We Won't Get Fooled Again."

206. The "Not So United" States of America
June 21, 2010

207. Snoopy, The Peanuts Sunday Comic Strip and Our Skyrocketing $13 Trillion National Debt
June 14, 2010
Recent news stories remind me of an old Sunday Peanuts comic strip. Snoopy is out jogging one day when his knees start to complain about the punishment they are taking from the jog. The feet then chime in about how they are taking the most pounding and how much they hurt. The lungs then volunteer th...

208. Why It Is Ludicrous To Hate The Rich
June 14, 2010
Hillary Clinton, the current Secretary of State, commented at a recent speech she was giving that it was not good that some Americans make so much money.

209. Sometimes It Is Better To Remain Silent And Thought Ignorant Than To Speak Up And Remove All Doubt
June 14, 2010
A number of political class verbal missteps recently have reminded me of a favorite saying that goes something like the following:
"Sometimes it is better to remain silent and thought ignorant than to speak up and remove all doubt."
