Commentary On the very day that lockdowns were announced (March 16, 2020), the Federal Reserve revved up its printing press and Congress prepared the CARES Act that spent $2.2 trillion to feed the lockdown beasts at the state level. It was a huge turning point in U.S. history that changed everything. We are still dealing…
Political Fantasies Versus Economic Reality
Commentary The protests in France against President Emmanuel Macron’s raising of the retirement age from 62 to 64 have increased in number and intensified in violence. A March 24 report stated that around 150 members of the French police forces have been injured. Anarchists are having a field day. Mob psychology has made an ugly…

LAPLACE, La.—Along Interstate 10 where the Mississippi River threads from Baton Rouge to New Orleans, ever-expanding petrochemical and other industrial projects have long been fought by environmental activists, who have saddled the stretch with the disputed moniker “Cancer Alley.” Now the Biden administration is opening a new front in the war—against a proposed expansion of…
Our Political Magicians
Commentary The most successful magicians are able to convince people to momentarily believe that their ability is supernatural instead of an act of deception through sleight of hand, leading them to profit from misdirecting the audience. They’re specifically trained to manipulate the audience’s eyes to see what the magician wants them to see, distracting them…

When Terri’s parents Bob and Mary…
The Culprit Behind the Cruise Ship Outbreaks: Norovirus
Recently, there have been many media reports on infection outbreaks on several cruise ships with tens—even hundreds—of guests having gastrointestinal symptoms and overwhelming onboard medical staff. Although these cases are still being investigated, it is widely believed that these outbreaks were due to norovirus. Norovirus 101 Norovirus is a zoonotic virus that likely mutated so that…
Systemic Risk in European Banks
Commentary Negative interest rates and quantitative easing have wrecked the economic system. Negative interest rates destroy the profitable portion of a bank’s asset base, and no amount of cost-cutting or efficiency initiatives can compensate for this loss. Furthermore, persistent quantitative easing has transformed the investment side of the balance sheet into a ticking bomb. Deutsche…
Is It Time to Say Goodbye to Improving Productivity?
Commentary The latest five-year review by the Australian Productivity Commission (PC) is a historically weak piece of analysis compared to previous reports, perhaps as a result of government pressure. If you read between the lines on Treasurer Jim Chalmers’s recent comments, it appears the Commission is to sing its swan song sooner rather than later….
NSW Election a Brittle Victory for Labor
Commentary The New South Wales (NSW) election involved a decisive shift to the left, but not to the Australian Labor Party (ALP), who appears to have scraped home with perhaps a four-seat majority with 54.3 percent of the two-party preferred vote. This is comfortable but certainly not huge. The centre-right Liberal-National Coalition lost more ground…
