i actually feel somewhat bad for keynes, sometimes. poor guy could not have known how bastardized, coopted and misunderstood his word was destined to be~! let's remember that in keynes' days, not everyone had a offshore bank account account. people saved money under mattresses. these days, every dollar is, in a sense, spent: if not on consumption of food immediately, then on investments. no one keeps money under mattress anymore. and in a bank, even More

If the US economy began producing a net 500K jobs per month, starting now, the UE rate in 2012 tax estimator will be around 8%. Can you imagine a US president campaigning for reelection by touting 8% UE as a success? Worse yet, there is no indication in any indicator that the US economy is about to create any such number of new jobs. This presidency has already began a steady and gradual implosion. It started even before the election. Obama's presidency More

First recruitment and selection process foremost, before the selection process comes to a close, there must be an urgent revamp of the representation and voting structure within the IMF board, to reflect more accurately the standing of the emerging economies in the world economic and political affairs. The world is not reacting and changing fast enough with the paradigm shift in the world economic and socio-political order. The domination of the West More

Truby, we have the exact same situation with public school monopolies, yet a stubborn majority of the people continually think the solution to poor education is to throw more and more money at the monolithic liberal public school system. The reason a nation of fifty states works better than a nation of one is that there are fifty examples of how people attempt to accomplish the same basic smart goals examples. Some work (Texas), some fail (California). More

As your Conservative colleagues salivated at the thought of shutting down NPR and delighted in the undercover investigations that exposed Acorn for what it was. This is what happens when ideology divides a population. The truth doesn't matter any more. This atmosphere of hate is well deserved and of our own creation. Personally, I want Fox News to survive. The more people it convinces to stay in the dark ages and vote against their own interests, the More

There was one more air show crash in West Virginia on Saturday. This fascination with vintwhat age can i retire, WWII style planes in air shows needs to end. They are just noisy, ugly, and are not even good to look at. Except for the modern fighter jets which are new and well maintained if commercial passengers are not allowed on a plane that plane should not be allowed in air shows. Why should FAA grant license to these planes to fly when one will More

I realize I have missed the boat with this posting - it is four days later and no one will get to read this - c'est la vie... One ingredient not specifically mentioned in the article but alluded to by Dean is the feeling overwhelmed of playing in a space. Is playing in a dingy dead recording room the same as one of these greatly esteemed recording studios? Wouldn't a musician be more psyched in a great space? Creating music and just about everything More

Post at Century Link is grossly overpaid. His multiculture organization is terrible. No one takes ownership if there is a problem. His office doesn't return calls either. I've never dealt with an organization that could careless about it's customers. Everytime you call it's a 30min ordeal. I guess it's okay to turn off a businesses DSL for a week when they just wanted to upgrade the speed. Do not have anything to do with that company, sell that stock More

Dr. Froehling, What are your thoughts on success about the tone of this article that suggests that disk deterioration, or other conditions with progressively more pain may be unnecessary unless they fall into one of the cited diagnoses that the wsj writers seem to be 'blessing?' As the child of a physician, and nephew to two more MDs, I am personally offended that the untrained can take such positions publicly. This has nothing to do with the better More

You may think this article is a flight of fancy. It's not. I make north of $100,000 a year from a pension, investments, and consulting, and pay no federal income working tax credits. All of the deductions, exemptions and credits take my taxable income down to the point where some AMT credits carried over from 2004 pay for my current year taxes. I have about 3 more years before those credits run out, but have paid almost no federal income tax in years. More
