Will America Survive Joe Biden?

James Howard Kunstler
If you want to understand the complete failure of moral authority in America, seek no further than the gothic doings of the Biden family, especially now that the President’s degenerate son, Hunter, has been rewarded with a $2-million advance-against ro...

Fed Transparency Won't Get Us out of the Mess the Fed Created

Frank Shostak
In an interview with National Public Radio’s “Morning Edition” program on Thursday, March 25, 2021, Fed chair Jerome Powell said that even with the economy rebounding faster than expected, any change in monetary policy would happen “very, very gradually over time and with great transparency. Rate increases would only be considered when the economy is all but fully recovered.” Powell also said that “as we make substantial further progress towar...

Peak Woke

James Howard Kunstler
What were the execs of these mighty companies thinking — these knights of the boardroom, these capitalist geniuses, these moral nonpareils — when they cancelled Atlanta’s turn to host the midsummer All-star Game to “protest” Georgia’s passage of a law that requires voter ID? Surely that they were striking a righteous blow against systemic racism. And then, the rest of the world realized — almost immediately — that Major League Baseball require...

Paradigm Failure

James Howard Kunstler
A nation literally falling apart certainly might want to Build Back Better, but it also might want to consider building back differently, consistent with the signals that reality is sending to humankind these days. For instance, the signals that the old industrial paradigm is coming to an end, and that the furnishings and accessories of it may not be the ones that humankind actually requires going forward. Alas, the psychology of previous inve...

The Polaris Letter

Nathan Lewis
Many people have asked me about my thoughts on the present situation, from the standpoint of an investor. This is something I have some background in, since I did manage money professionally for over ten years, and had a pretty good track record during that time — much better, over a ten year period, than the average hedge fund. (I still manage a little today, for some friends.) Also, in the past, I did macro investment research for institutio...

Real Savings Are at the Heart of Lending

Frank Shostak
After climbing to 12.2 percent in April last year, the yearly growth rate of combined commercial bank real estate and consumer and business loans plunged to –2.6 percent in early March. For most commentators an important factor in setting economic pro...

Do You Believe in Magic?

James Howard Kunstler
The people pretending to run the world’s financial affairs do. The more layers of abstract game-playing they add to the existing armatures of unreality they’ve already constructed, the more certain it becomes that they will blow up all the support systems of a sunsetting hyper-tech economy that now has no safe lane to continue running in. Virtually all the big nations are doing this now in desperation because they don’t understand that the hyp...

“Where Am I Here?”

James Howard Kunstler
I don’t know about you, but I was thrilled to hear Joe Biden tell America — with a faraway gleam in those ol’ blue Konstantin Chernenko eyes — that he’s expecting to run for a second term. The prospect must engross him, so effervescent was his campaign of 2020! Like all presidents, he’s learning on-the-job, but he’s already lapping Franklin Roosevelt in the hundred-day dash of executive action, showing those wicked CCP envoys who’s boss (why, ...

You Wanna Buy a Bridge?

Peter Schiff
Recently, a piece of collage art entitled “Everydays: The First 5000 Days,” by an artist known as Beeple, sold at a Christie’s auction for $69 million. The Wall Street Journal noted that the price was higher than any that has ever been paid for works of Frida Kahlo, Paul Gaugin, or Salvador Dali. But, before the auction, few outside the digital art world had ever heard of Beeple, which may explain why the bidding started at just $100. But the ...

Money Isn't Neutral: Why Economic Stabilization Schemes Are Counterproductive

Frank Shostak
For most commentators economic stability refers to an absence of excessive fluctuations in key economic data such as real gross domestic product (GDP) and the consumer price index (CPI). An economy with constant output growth and low and stable price i...

2020 Reading List

Nathan Lewis
I wasn’t going to put up my reading list for 2020, since it is a little personal. But, I think it can serve as a useful example for someone. As in 2019, I have been in the middle of a systematic review of “Classic” texts. This has excluded many books with more of a current-events theme, or continuing investigations of some finer points of economics. Basically, it is a process of getting the education that I think people should get, when they a...

In the Shadows of Shadowland

James Howard Kunstler
Is there some kind of game on in the USA? Have our public affairs ever looked so false and disordered? Is it ever more wondrous that Joe Biden somehow managed to win the Super Tuesday primary, let alone the national election? The country has gotten exactly what it saw all through the autumn of 2020: the empty shell of a broken politician. Back in October, Ol’ Joe hiding in his basement was played as a bad joke in a nervous zeitgeist. Nothing t...

V. Putin Ain’t No Corn Pop

James Howard Kunstler
Somehow, I don’t think Joe Biden understood what he thought Vladimir Putin understood about what they mutually understood. If I had to guess, I’d say that Mr. Putin understood Joe Biden to be the most pathetic blustering schlemiel he’d ever encountered on the international scene. But that must have been before Mr. B was installed in the White House by powers and persons unseen because it’s evident now that his handlers do not allow him to talk...

The Destructive Power of Keynesian Spending Plans

Frank Shostak
According to John Maynard Keynes, The ideas of economists and political philosophers, both when they are right and when they are wrong, are more powerful than is commonly understood. Indeed the world is ruled by little else. Practical men, who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influence, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist. Madmen in authority, who hear voices in the air, are distilling their frenzy from ...

This Is What You Voted For

James Howard Kunstler
Well, naturally, Woke Hollywood staged a riot in tribute to George Floyd at this year’s Grammy awards, complete with “police” (actors) shooting a black man (another actor) in the back, a demagogic harangue for “justice, equity, policy, and everything else,” and a stage-set of burning buildings in the background — a harbinger of things-to-come? Haven’t riots become another form of entertainment this restless pandemic year of lockdowns and shutd...

Squiggly Lines

Nathan Lewis
We have been talking about E. C. Harwood‘s views of the Great Depression. These were expressed in his 1932 book Cause and Control of the Business Cycle. This is an interesting book for a number of reasons; among them, it was written in 1932, and thus represents what people were thinking at that time. Second, Harwood was not a “professional” academically-anointed economist, but a professor of Military Science and Tactics who naturally became in...

Previews of Coming Attractions

James Howard Kunstler
How reassured were you by Joe Biden’s speech to the nation Thursday night? The more his managers pretend that he’s in charge of anything, the more unlikely it actually seems. So, they wound him up — Adderall would be my guess, to fortify the attention span — and rolled him out like the mummy of Amenhotep III, and one could just imagine the leaders of this-and-that foreign nation cringing (or cackling) in their seats to see this embodiment of c...

What Does GDP Really Tell Us?

Frank Shostak
To gain insight into the state of an economy, most financial experts and commentators rely on a statistic called the gross domestic product (GDP). The GDP framework looks at the value of final goods and services produced during a particular time interval, usually a quarter or a year. This statistic is constructed in accordance with the view that what drives an economy is not the production of wealth but rather its consumption. What matters her...

Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Kaboom

James Howard Kunstler
Isn’t that a curious concept from the front page of Re-set Central? How does a couple with no jobs and no income earn $150,000 in a year that they were not working? And if they somehow brought in $150,000 anyway, why do they need the support of the US government? Such are the many mysteries of the Coronavirus 2021 stimulus bill. What’s actually going on with this monster of legislation? Kind of looks like an attempt to replace what used to be ...

Banks and Money

Nathan Lewis
At some point, I will actually talk about E. C. Harwood’s writings, but before then, I want to make some points about Money (the currency) and Credit (the banking system, and other credit such as bonds). Much confusion has taken place over the decades ...

The Trial of Winnie the Pooh

James Howard Kunstler
“What is your personal pronoun?” The bear looked perplexed. “O, bother,” he said. “Nobody I know has such a thing? “Of course they do,” the Queen said. “Perhaps it’s ‘the’,” the bear said. “That is a definite article, not a pronoun!” the Queen barked. “Are you an imbecile?” “I’m not sure.  Maybe it’s ‘dear’— “That’s enough out of you!” the Queen said. “And let’s have no more impertinence! Do you have counsel?” “Why, yes,” the bear said. “Mr. K...

Is Money a Creation of Government?

Frank Shostak
By some theories such as the Modern Monetary Theory (MMT), money originated on account of the government decree. Money according to the MMT is what the State decides it is going to be. Following the ideas of the German economist, Georg Knapp, the Moder...

Party Like It’s 1984

James Howard Kunstler
Chalk up a fatal blow to The Patriarchy. That avatar of toxic masculinity, Mr. Potato Head has been dumped into the same humid chamber of perdition where the ghosts of Nathan Bedford Forrest, Theodore Bilbo, and Phyllis Schlafly howl and squirm — liberating the billions of potatoes world-wide from the mental prison of binary sexuality. The move by Hasbro (bro? really??) may yet disappoint the legions in Wokesterdom as a-bridge-not-far-enough w...

E. C. Harwood on the Great Depression

Nathan Lewis
In the past, I did a review of various “interpretations” of the Great Depression. I did not spend very much time on “Austrian interpretations,” except to give some basic characteristics. It would be worthwhile to spend a lot more time on these, includi...

Repentance

James Howard Kunstler
You’d think that a wobbling civilization, plagued by failures of economy and politics, would have better things to do than submit to the crypto-religious ghost-dance of racial hysteria called “being Woke” that preoccupies its thinking class. Case in point: the vocational martyrdom at Smith College of a lowly staffer named Jodi Shaw, who objected publicly to the ritual indignities heaped on her by colleagues and students in the name of “social ...

Shadowland

James Howard Kunstler
The State of the Union speech is a somewhat squishy national ritual. Since Franklin Roosevelt, presidents have delivered it early each year in-person to a joint session of congress, with every other dignitary in government on hand — except for one cabinet officer designated the “lone survivior,” who sits it out elsewhere in case, say, the Capitol gets blown up. Before Woodrow Wilson, presidents customarily sent over a written message. Article ...

No, Drops in Money Velocity Don't Offset Money Printing

Frank Shostak
At the end of January, the yearly growth rate of our measure of US money supply (AMS) closed at 76.7 percent, against 4.8 percent in January 2020. It is tempting to suggest that this massive increase in the growth rate of money supply is likely to resu...
