| Happy Labor Day everybody. Forward from here, things get jiggy. The nation faces a pile-up of events as we turn the corner on summer and head into the spook-house of autumn.
This will be the week when the reeking after-effects of Harvey’s journey through Houston become super-vivid. It’s going to be hot-hot-hot there all week, perfect conditions for mold to creep through untold square-footage of soggy sheetrock and plenty of nutriment in the toxic gumbo of lingering standing water for mosquitoes Monday, September 4, 2017 |

| Why We Can't Handle An Equities Bear Market, Part 1: State Budgets W |
| Back when society's balance sheet was reasonably solid, the occasional bear
market was no big deal. A 20% drop in the average S&P 500 stock would
scare investors and lead to slight declines in consumer spending and government
