new news


Times are changing. Google offers a new news format. Well, this is because there were some old school white shoe complainers in the newspapers. Basically, people are not reading print media such as newspapers anymore.

Paradise Lost

Paradise Lost is a good name in this case. Half finished resorts and luxury condos dot beaches as our recovery proves to be a mirage. There is no money. Banks are afraid to lend as they hoard their money.

Virgin Galactic spaceship is ready to fly into outer space. This is an exciting time to be alive in. People now wonder about the sky above. At one time in 1969 we went to the moon. That was near 40 years ago.

Jobs in our recession

People there are no easy solutions and this recession is not over. True our prez pretends that all is well, but hell where are jobs? OK many people who found new jobs have been forced to take steep cuts in pay. This prez is clueless on jobs. Real unemployment is not 10% but more like 20% and rising.

What is real

Houses and hotels built on a cash foundation. photo

Sadly, rather than fix the problem our gov claims there is no prob. They say that rapidly improving labor markets means we are now in an economic recovery. That the great recession has ended and we are now seeing unemployment improve.

What I say is that this depression, which will be worse than the one in the 1930s maybe has not ended, in fact, it is just getting started. People, we cannot print worthless little green pieces of paper and expect that all is fine while we produce nothing. I am talking about the orangeback ten that looks like monopoly money. Take a look at Walmart, 99% of their merchandise is MADE IN CHINA. How much longer can this game go on?

What recovery?

Figures are in. Employee are getting lower wages. Macy's said Thursday its same-store sales fell worst-than-expected 6.1% from last year. Let me see, last year we were in free fall and in a recession. Debunkers say "Listen, you're crazy, everything is fine." Do the math. People are losing jobs, those who still have jobs are getting less hours, and many are forced to take cuts in wages.

Ethanol in gas

EPA may allow more ethanol in gas. This may sound like a good idea, but could lead to rough starts in winter and poor efficiency in summer. Sadly, many engines do not work well when ethanol is more than 10% of the fuel in gas.
