People complain that they want industries back so they can work them. But that comes with the responsibility for diligent, efficient, and trustworthy workmanship. Nuclear energy will never work without impeccable management.

This tariff policy is starting to resemble extortion.

Switzerland has a population of almost 9 million, smaller than New Jersey. The US population: 340 million, third largest in the world. What's fair trade?

Indeed.

Sarah Palin just got full-body chills.

Could anything be worse than the "modern" methods that can't get anything right?

But of course!

Put a lonely check mark on the "good policy" side!

Mukowski won.

Pay attention to this.

Good fences make good neighbors.

Don't give it air.

Ignore it.

It's better to learn from history than to shun it.

Now that she's cleared the stage, just wait....

An X bromance showdown.

"The sea - this truth must be confessed - has no generosity. No display of manly qualities - courage, hardihood, endurance, faithfulness - has ever been known to touch its irresponsible consciousness of power." Joseph Conrad

This is a slippery slope.

We'll believe it when we see it.

Nothing is economically sound unless we see more manufacturing of products within the US, creating jobs and lowering prices....but lowering domestic prices never happens in the face of foreign tariffs. Long-term success isn't apparent. Where is the US manufacturing growth?

Economics tells us that squeezing the middle class is a disaster for any economy. Food source prices are skyrocketing, restaurants are raising prices, and many middle-class people cannot afford a restaurant meal. Pizza joints and delivery will grow and thrive!

What I want to know is this: Where are the revenues (yes, tariffs are taxes) going? Do we know?

The cost of higher education in America is obscene. And it's about to get worse.

Whereas other artists...like Joni Mitchell...made it on pure, unadulterated, artistic talent. Well, good for Ms. Swift.

One issue that has been noted is that attention spans are shrinking, as some scientists have observed. This is largely the result of the use of smartphones and a constant barrage of useless data.

Gender doesn't matter. Intelligence and preparation do.

Sounds like the German schools in England in the 1930s.

Merit is all that counts. I see no reason to include application questions on race or gender. Just leave those questions out. I think it's improper to ask.

I remember when we were warned of the population explosion.
