We find wisdom from the old testament who implores its readers a little more forcefully than C Thomas' gentle pleadings for sanity.

Today we solve all the world's problems by following the money.

We discuss how we went off the gold standard as a country, and investigated how that is going with our baby boomer leaders.

Today we discuss the failing European economy, failing green economy, and the failing bond market. Finland has a pipeline sabotaged, self driving cars get pulled off the streets of San Francisco, and we bid farewell to Matthew Perry.

Todays we discuss the greatest quarterback in history, the gold standard for all qbs, and how he compares to another gold standard, the shiny metal itself.

This week we discuss the dysfunction of Congress, more workers strikes, and the continued economic failings of the green revolution. We also look at the success or lack of success of AI trading models, Tesla's awful week, and why the Japanese Yen could be the spark that ignites a financial powder keg.

This week we discuss risk takers and how they shall inherit the country and always have.

Looking Backwards- The US is having trouble finding buyers of their bonds, the green energy racket is being exposed, and pharmacists are walking out.

Looking Forwards- What will we learn about the Finnish pipeline explosion, why the US froze money it had already given to Iran, and why the housing indistry is begging Jerome Powell to ease off on the interest rates.

We continue to explore who might be behind Hamas after the weekend of terrorism in Israel.

Hamas brutally attacked Israel with a surprise attach by air, land and sea on Saturday. We discuss why Hamas would do such a thing and find that Israel treatment of its neighbors has been less than forthcoming and more like the US treatment of its adversaries. We explore why Hamas would attack its more powerful neighbor knowing the response would be swift and powerful which it was. We also do some follow up on topics we have previously covered including the Ecuadorian elections and the small town in Kansas that saw its newspaper offices raided. The Us bond market crash is ongoing and the debt clock is spinning faster than ever. Lastly, we look at one of our too big to fail banks and how fragile it might be.
