Season’s Ripe for an Economic Candidate!

Considering that the U.S. Economy has been in a near 30 year (there’s support for stating it goes back to 1970) death spiral you’d think that a Presidential candidate would have had ample time to craft a compelling economic plan as part of their platform. The obvious target is the Tax System however, you really can’t deal with that until you deal with trade policy that suspends portions of the tax code where the beneficial interests of the multi-nationals are concerned (of course no candidate would dare tell you that truth).

The Analytics of Bruce Jenner; a National Cover Page

It occurs to me that opening a commentary with a lead such as this risks that someone’s bound to terminate their thinking, believing it’s all about Bruce Jenner. It is as to ambiguity and how it relates in greater context however, as to Bruce individually, I’ll only say that it’s his life and to the extent his actions don’t impale the order of another’s, he’s free to express his liberty as he chooses. As to whether he has that liberty, well, I’ll leave that decision to you.

A Greek Lesson

Despite the promise of a “unified Europe” the design of the E.U. was never intended to be a social remedy or blank check. It was and remains an economic tool, a subsuming of a sovereign states’ and a peoples right of self-determination and financial capacity.

Yes, the Greek Peoples willingness to challenge the E.U.’s draconian rule is laudable however, they will soon learn that the security pledged by the Greek State to the E.U. and by extension of the same, the Holders of their Sovereign Debt (Bonds), includes Greek State/Municipal/Public owned assets (and Pensions). The E.U. System is now so thoroughly woven into the economic/financial fabric of the member states that unwinding or releasing a State from the so-called Union will undoubtedly be followed by Portugal and then Spain and quite possibly Italy as well.
