A World Bank economist is trying to shame the U.S. for being home to one half of the world’s richest people, the so-called 1%. In reality, it’s the world that should be red-faced for not creating wealth as America does. Bank chief economist Branko Milanovic has come out with a book called “The Haves and the Have Nots,” whose purpose seems to be to argue there’s something... 

Two years ago, UN researchers were claiming that it would cost “as much as $600 billion a year over the next decade” to go green. A new UN report has more than tripled that number to $1.9 trillion a year for 40 years. That’s $76 trillion, or more than five times the entire Gross Domestic Product of the United States ($14.66 trillion a year). It’s all part of a “technological... 

Maybe coincidence, but…. When President Obama launched missiles and warplanes against Libya’s longtime dictator Col. Kadafi in March, it came after a series of public warnings from both the president himself and his press secretary, Jay Carney, in support of pro-democracy demonstrators and against the regime’s violent reactions. The ongoing attacks against Libya, which Obama... 

It’s a topsy-turvy world. “Anarchists” protest cuts in government spending, while “socialists” live in the lap of luxury, including $3,000-a-night Manhattan hotel suites, working, in at least one celebrated case, to impose corporatist-flavored “neoliberalism” on the troubled countries of the world.

If... 

The International Monetary Fund has just dropped a bombshell, and nobody noticed. For the first time, the international organization has set a date for the moment when the “Age of America” will end and the U.S. economy will be overtaken by that of China.

After WWI, America emerged as the dominant global military and economic power.  The allied victory in WWII cemented her place as a global superpower, and when the Cold War ended, the lone global superpower. America has weathered many storms and to date has always landed on her feet.  There were never any illusions that there were people and nations that have sought to take the USA down.  With the... 

In case you missed it, earlier this week China announced that its foreign currency reserves are excessive and that they need to return to “reasonable” levels. In politician speak, this is a clear, “we are sick of the US Dollar and will be taking steps to lower our holdings.” Remember, the US Dollar is China’s largest single holding. And China has already begun dumping Treasuries (US Debt). This... 

UNITED NATIONS — Bolivia will this month table a draft United Nations treaty giving “Mother Earth” the same rights as humans — having just passed a domestic law that does the same for bugs, trees and all other natural things in the South American country. The bid aims to have the UN recognize the Earth as a living entity that humans have sought to “dominate and exploit”...
