Emptyage — Generation X Doesn't Want to Hear It
Mercantilists Knocking at our Door in Wisconsin
My friend, Dan, sent me a link to an Opinion piece in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel yesterday that is what I feel is wrong with the approach of "conservatives" in Wisconsin. As much as I would like to write a thorough critique of the article, I'll limit myself to a few short observations. Mr. Smith's article, Legislators should act to create jobs here, is here.
"As a Wisconsin native from Superior, I have witnessed the devastating impact of the exporting of jobs from a city that once prospered from the mining, railroad and shipping industries. As these jobs began to disappear over the last quarter-century, the population of the city declined as well. And my hometown is not an anomaly; instead, it is a microcosm of what is happening all across Wisconsin." Read more »

Review & Outlook: Cain's Tax Mutiny - WSJ.com
Is today's money system convoluted (and corrupt)? Hell yeah...
Ever wonder how money is "created?" I did and have been trying to read about banking systems, central banking, decentralized banking, etc. Today I read the following from Murray Rothbard and want you to, too. Be careful. I have read the following passage three times and still keep shaking my head in disbelief. Many have criticized Rothbard as being an unrealistic anarchy-libertarian. That criticism may be valid, but one thing is for sure: if what he says is true (which I think it is), that facet of his personality is irrelevant. We have based our money supply on a house of cards and if large group of people get wind of it, we're in real trouble:
