DISCO

There are still plenty of meat heads who can't dance and bash disco songs of the 80's.

No one. Ever.  Nobody. Not a single person.

Was ever killed, maimed or gunned down in a disco song.

 

The world we live in today............

A good buddy had some under-25'ers over last weekend that were friends with his son.

He called and asked if I wanted to come over and keep him company.   He said we'd have no problem carrying on a conversation.   He said the millennials just wanted to come over, drink free beer and stare at their cell phones.  

All night long.  

North Korea: FAT BOY v. AGENT ORANGE

Since when is winning the goal of a foreign war? The goal is to expend as much military hardware as possible wrecking the country so you can then spend countless more billions rebuilding it. The longer the war drags on the better for these people.

Ask yourself how many shares of major defense contractors these Congress-critters own and how many millions they will make as "advisors" and "experts" from the gigs they will be offered by the same companies after their public "service" ends.  They have been winning all along and it's only getting better.

Remind me again how many countries North Korea had invaded since the truce in 1953 and how many the United States has invaded in the same time? 

The Donnie Trump show and North Korea will do what every other country does to the United States: Cost America billions everyday to patrol the rock concert. Right now, the tour is going on all over the world. $20 trillion in debt and counting. N Korea is winning.  We spend a large amount of money every day, every year to keep our nuclear triad at the ready.  Deterrence is front and center.  It's what we do. Take a guess at what it costs per day to keep the US fleet and all that hardware up and running to have an elevated level of vigilance? This can and will go on for months. Would you want to write that check? 

Didn't think so.

But guess what, you are. And if you're not, it's being borrowed. And you owe it. Broke is where the US will land.

By escalating tensions with North Korea, Trump is doing everything, literally everything, we elected him NOT to do. He needs to be draining the swamp at home, not fighting NeoLib wars abroad. 

Bring it home Donnie.   Tax code reform, FED audit,  Fed abolishment, lawyer reform, immigration, border security, social security and on and on and on.

It's true,  the only goal of an elected politician is to get reelected.     

James Bullard, St. Louis Fed Chair Today on Bloomberg

Bullard admitted that "The Fed's inflation and growth 'misses' add up... and undercut credibility."

Which raises a simple question - what credibility?

Fear? Aw come on who is scared of this market?

With the VIX near dead in the water I thought readers should get acquainted with some fear and greed.   They haven't gone out of style for 10,000 years but it seems like they have gone Tango Uniform, T.U. the last few months.  Click on this YouTube link:

Greatest Motivational Speech at Milton High School EVER!

FED True or False?

T or F:   The Fed has never functioned in any way except to help Wall Street inflate bubbles, protect big banks and allow the Federal government to spend like a drunken sailor.

A:   The Fed is functioning very well as far as those who are in a position to change it are concerned – it is massively redistributing income to the real owners of governments and allowing politicians to continue to promise more than they can deliver with tax receipts since they can borrow their way to prosperity and loudly claim economic “recoveries”.

Today and all the tomorrow's ahead.....................

It seems that I have been running into far too many younger Americans who aren't thinking straight or right.  Maybe it has something to do with their cell phone stuck in their face.

Stop looking back.  Stop looking ahead.  Just STOP the madness.

Listen up.  Do this checklist.   Again and again and again.

You will eventually get it right. 

Here is a right-now-checklist: Are you breathing? Are you eating well? Did you sleep enough last night? Did you exercise? Did you avoid the people who put you down or stress you out? Did you come up with ideas? Did you laugh? Are you grateful for what you have? Can you surrender to the universe, to the angels that anchor you to your fears, just for a moment, and say, “Who today do you want me to help?”
