Today we take a ride with an EV user for 11,000 miles, we see how fragile the internet can be, and we see the car market is in big trouble. That hasn't stopped credit demand, but credit supply is what is slowing. Consumer credit and the appetite for long term US bonds is waning. Waning, that is what we are seeing on the EV economic story as well.

Scranton Joe is using his lame duck golden years to attempt to get us into World War III. He is getting close.

Today we see the inherent problem with tariffs, higher prices and the consequences of higher prices in Germany. We see that we have recently been in another 50/50 nuclear situation, which frightens me to no end. We also see that China isn't that far behind us technologically, restaurants are really suffering without government stimulus, and miracles do happen in the mountains....

Today we discuss the real reason behind the tariffs, good old fashioned capitalism. Just not ours.

Today we look back at the fallout we anticipated in Germany on Wednesday. The quick shakeup includes the firing of the finance minister, the possibility of snap elections which the incumbents are unlikely to win amidst a backdrop of declining industrial production and layoffs. Meanwhile in the US hot pockets of real estate have reached correction territory while the sun shines on the riskiest and most expensive assets in the glow of Don Trump's election victory. He has named his first cabinet member and her name is Susie Miles. Let's hope he listens to her.

Today's we explore Europe's former industrial engine and how the choices they are making are destroying the country. Good Times!

Today we look at losses. Commercial real estate losses, California refining capacity, and Volkswagen's euros. It seems that Millennials might have to go back to work after throwing their toys down and stomping their feet, Ernst and Young just had a tantrum of their own as they walked away from the cooked books of Super Micro Computer, and lastly are Elon Musk and Don Trump joining forces with famed libertarian Ron Paul to fix the spending in this country or are they just pouring petrol into a lantern and gaslighting us?

An ode to the Republic, at least what is left of her...

Our new leader visited Ukraine this week. The WNBA is still akin to watching an eclipse without glasses, and a Bolivian presidential candidate almost got killed in the middle of traffic. Meanwhile Vermont and Detroit are on very different glide paths, while the bond market is starting to sniff out the ridiculousness of the two candidates' financial policies.

In response to today's billionaires jet setting across the globe and working the drive thrus, today we crisscross the country and hit the drive thrus to see how much of a challenge the current economy is.
