More Erratic Economic Notions From Obama Prolonged uncertainty will continue to limit hiring and minimize commitment to long-term capital expenditures.

Show Trial Goes To New York Fanaticism is deaf to all pleadings, be they judicial, political or personal entreaties. Pretending that a federal civil trial will be a victory against terrorism is flailing against an ill wind, and will accomplish little but inflate the self-righteous.

Obama's Misstep On Iran The signals showered on Americans and their allies by this Administration's decisions and announcements are confusing, but to Russia, they seem to be welcome and they reinforce its strategy of saber rattling. Sanctions have not deterred Iran's ayatollahs.

Political Campaign Funding – A Democracy's Dilemma When the constitutionality of any far reaching federal law is opposed, it is a matter of national relevance, however, when a law affecting the foundation of the Democracy is challenged, such event should be arousing everyone's notice and should be at the forefront of all news media outlets.

America, End Your Fear Of Wall Street Through a century of market ups and downs, interest rate fluctuations, mergers, acquisitions, political influence, lobbying and positioning insiders to the most powerful government and government related institutions, the Kings of Wall Street have nurtured and advanced their isolated power to a point where they are responsible to no one.

Government Capping Compensation? Government intervention has reduced competition in the banking sector, allowing the favored few bailout- receiver- therefore-government- backed behemoths to attract investor support, and has enabled their acquisitions of not so fortunate competitors. "-"-

Goldman Sachs: Thank You Mr. President Regarding this nastiness of the past week, please do not be too concerned about all this talk surrounding our super high-speed fully automated transaction processors. Also please understand that they are our future. Admittedly, we are enamored with the technological prowess we have acquired.

China will not soon be supplanting Americans, or Europeans, in the mall line-ups yearning for China-made American invented branded and engineered products.
