The national debt surpassed a mind-boggling $35 trillion last week — approximately $100,000 for every man, woman, and child living in the United States. This means a family of four’s share of public debt, ~$400,000, is likely more than they owe on the mortgage of...

Last Friday, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the unemployment rate had jumped to 4.3% in July. The pace at which unemployment is rising matches the speed often found in the early stages of a recession — an indicator known as the Sahm Rule.

The Fed can easily be made to work but nobody apparently wants it to, or we’d change it. This rose bush puts out only flowers that only stink and wither, but it has thorns the size of your fingers that cling to your pockets and tear at your flesh.
