EconoFaux

August 19, 2009

What a great word, “EconoFaux”!  I decided to create a word that described “ a bold and blatant falsehood on matters of or relating to functional and practical economic engagements or actions which accurately describe and/or otherwise conform in such a manner as to support or authenticate the idea express by an FEI (Flat Earth Idolatry).”

EconoFaux culprits tend to be: 

  • Government Agent or Agencies
  • Politicians
  • Recipients of Government Entitlements/Benefits
  • Union Operatives
  • Anyone who has never been solely responsible for the fuel source of a checkbook
  • Activists or Activist related Organizers

Mortgage Redeux

July 1, 2009 

Financial Blunder American Style, the near maniacal level of Government waste, stupidity and mindless blundering continues! 

Yes, I know, the comments are polemic in appearance however, I know no better way to express the very concern we all have yet absolutely no one is paying attention to. The consequences either. 

As of this writing, the Federal Government is nearing 7 Trillion Dollars in various stimulus miss-adventures (including the exposed actions of the Federal Reserve) yet the economic grip on the greased pole continues to slip further on to financial oblivion.

A Day at the Market

5/7/09

It was an interesting day in the Financial Markets! I’ve received a few interesting phone calls and emails in response to a few commentaries I made the other day.  It was one of my first ever call in radio events and I was a bit nervous,  once I forgot what I was doing,  I seemed to settle down and resolve to a measured degree of coherence.  I hope.

Failure and Why!

January 1, 2009

January 20th will mark the first official day of the new Administration.   There is a great deal of hope saturating the nuance-of-the-day-term “Change”.   Several million people switched party lines and even more ignored reason, principal and purpose on this nebulous concept.   It’s not the first time, either!

I’ve ceded my hope that someone would be able to crystallize the substantive reason(s) for the near puerile form of euphoria we are witnessing and I’ve replaced it with another form of inquiry.  It, the inquiry,  is both a statement and a question:  Failure and Why!
