Easy-Money Policies Don't Solve the Problem of Idle Resources

Frank Shostak
It is widely believed that resources that are utilized in normal times to promote economic prosperity become underutilized during recessions. Some experts hold that what is required are policies which will increase the availability of credit. On this L...

A Fraught Moment

James Howard Kunstler
The last time the Democratic Party blew up in a presidential election year was 1860. It had evolved from Jefferson’s 1800 bloc of yeoman farmers to Andrew Jackson’s rowdy caucus of frontier populists in the 1830s, and settled into a slough of pro-slavery apologists by the 1850s, including two do-nothing Democratic presidents, Pierce and Buchanan. The party held a nominating convention in the spring of 1860 and couldn’t come up with a candidate...

The World Gold Standard System Will Rise Again — But, Not Yet.

Nathan Lewis
“Please God, make me good … but not yet!” said Augustine of Hippo (354-430), on his way to eventually becoming a saint of the Catholic Church. He was trying to overcome the temptation of “concubinage,” or women of easy virtue, which were common in the breakdown of Roman society in the late fourth century. Augustine was eventually successful, and helped establish Christian morality as it existed for the next 1500 years. It is becoming increa...

Death Wish

James Howard Kunstler
The early winter holidays are notorious for giving people the blues, but as the last Thanksgiving leftovers slide into the stockpot, the Democratic Party was put on suicide watch. Is the ghost of Jeffrey Epstein in charge? It’s a little late to call an...

Exports: Currency Devaluation Won't Grow the Economy

Frank Shostak
A visible weakness in economic activity in major world economies raises concern among various commentators that world economies have difficulties recovering despite very aggressive loose monetary policies. The yearly growth rate of US industrial produc...

Edmund Burke on Paper Fiat Currencies, 1790

Nathan Lewis
Today, we have a section by Edmund Burke, from Reflections on the Revolution in France, from 1790. This was, of course, early in the French Revolution, before things became very bloody, and also, before the fiat assignats became worthless. Nevertheless...

Brick Mortar Rent Meltdown, Manhattan Style

Wolf Richter
Asking rents for ground-floor retail space have plunged as landlords struggle with vacancies. By Wolf Richter for WOLF STREET. These are major shopping corridors in Manhattan, and in nearly all of them, asking rents for ground-floor retail space have been dropping for years – and in some of them by half. For example, the average asking rent on Madison Avenue between 57th Street and 72nd Street, plunged 22% in the second half of 2019, compared ...

The Resistance Digs Their Hole Deeper

James Howard Kunstler
“No, you don’t understand. It was the Russians, I tell you, the Russians!” And so, with a holiday recess for Adam Schiff’s impeachment soap opera, and news that DOJ Inspector General Horowitz will unload in early December, the media vassals of the Deep State are giving you their own turkey gristle to chew on: “The Russians did it! Yes, really, they did! Believe us!” Perhaps The New York Times has hooked up to a direct line of Burisma’s product...

China, like Japan in the 1990s, Will Be Dominated by Huge Zombie Banks

Mish
Michael Pettis has some words of wisdom for those who believe China will soon overtake the US as the world leader. "Having the smaller banks absorbed by the bigger ones, which seems to be Beijing's new strategy, will mean that China, like Japan in the 1990s, will be dominated by huge zombie banks," says Michael Pettis at China Financial Markets in a series of Tweets. The Tweets were in reference to the Wall Street Journal article Why China’s S...

The Storms of December

James Howard Kunstler
Finally, you’re left with that image of Adam Schiff sitting stock straight in the big chair with pursed lips and eyes bugged out, as in a very certain species of lunacy heretofore only seen in Canis latrans of Cartoon-land when, say, he has overrun the cliff’s edge clutching an anvil to his bosom. What was he thinking when he hatched this latest quixotic chapter in the ignominious crusade to reverse the 2016 election? That he’d never get caugh...

Don't Want a Liquidity Trap? More Saving Is the Answer

Entertaining Questions

James Howard Kunstler
Anyone who doubts that the Attorney General is dead serious about cleaning up the goddamned mess of sedition spawned by the Democratic Party, its agents in the permanent Washington bureaucracy, and its public relations arm in the news media, might invest a little time and attention in William Barr’s speech to the Federalist Society Friday evening. (Text of speech here and video here.) Mr. Barr declared unambiguously and in plain English that “...

"Controllable anonymity"

John Paul Koning
Reuters and Coindesk report that that the People's Bank of China's imminent central bank digital currency (CBDC) is going to have a feature called controllable anonymity. Perhaps some wires have been crossed in the translation, but it'd be hard to come up with a more Orwellian piece of double speak than this. Plenty of people on Twitter are sneering. But in this post I'm going to take China's side, if only tepidly. None of the news article...

Accidental Deaths

Nathan Lewis
One of the things you hear these days from the crowd that seems intent on disarming the American public is the idea that there are enormous numbers of accidental firearms deaths among children. This is from the Washington Post: As the National Rifle Association’s annual conference hits Nashville this weekend with 70,000 expected attendees, the organization has good reason to be upbeat. For another year, it has succeeded in stalling legislat...

Why Friedman Is Wrong on the Business Cycle

Frank Shostak
According to an article in Bloomberg on November 5, 2019, Milton Friedman’s business cycle theory seems to be vindicated. According to Milton Friedman, strong recoveries are just natural after particularly deep recessions. Like a guitar string, the harder the string is plucked down, the faster it should come back up. Bigger recessions should lead to faster growth rates during the recoveries, to get the economy back to the pre-recession level o...

Clive Maund
I will start this expose of what is really going on in Chile by pointing out that as I have lived there for the last 14 years, I am well placed to talk about it. I am aware that the truths that I am going to set out here may upset more than a few people, but if things are ever going to get better you have to begin by accepting reality, and the reality of the situation in Chile, which has seemingly gone from the most developed and prosperous co...
