    Numerian commented on the post, The Death of the Internet 3 days, 17 hours ago

    Follow-up on 6/14: Looks like we have an answer to one of the questions – is it the NSA lying about cooperation or CEOs like Sergei Brin and Mark Zuckerberg? According to this article by Bloomberg reporter […]

    Numerian commented on the post, To Stirling Newberry – The Agonist wishes you the very best! 2 weeks, 1 day ago

    If genius is the ability to see connections among things, people, places, and events that no else can see, Stirling has been blessed with genius, and not just brilliance, which is also an adjective that many […]

    Numerian commented on the post, Matt Barber: How can so much virulent homophobia NOT be hiding a deep, dark secret? 2 weeks, 2 days ago

    I believe the decline in the right’s opposition to gay marriage came about after the Ted Haggard and Sen. Larry Craig scandals (plus a few others at the time involving prominent Christian right leaders). The […]

    Numerian commented on the post, Is It Time Yet for an Inhofe Moment? 3 weeks, 4 days ago

    It’s not that they are becoming more frequent, but they are becoming more intense. Something to do with more moisture in the atmosphere and warmer overall temperatures leading to a higher number of F3 – F5 […]

    Numerian commented on the post, The Apple of My Eye 3 weeks, 4 days ago

    Way, way back in the 50s and 60s, corporations in America focused on two or three constituencies: the customers, the employees, and the community. The stockholders (not yet called the shareholders) were far down […]

    Numerian commented on the post, Is It Time Yet for an Inhofe Moment? 3 weeks, 6 days ago

    I’m sure it did. But Oklahoma is a deep red state that has elected men like Inhofe and Tom Coburn, both of whom routinely vote against disaster relief bills for storms like Hurricane Sandy. If President Obama or […]

    Numerian commented on the post, “OBAMA PRESIDENCY IN DEEP CRISIS” 1 month ago

    Can’t disagree. The guy has no friends. He’s spent five years cozying up to Republicans who hate him and turning his back on the Democrats who used to love him. He’s abandoned Democratic Party principles and […]

    Numerian commented on the post, All on Board in the Greatest Stock Market Rally Ever 1 month ago

    Hi Scott,

    I’ve been following framing lumber prices, which peaked in March and have fallen significantly since then. Some mills are reporting either a drop-off in orders or a collapse in orders during this […]

    Numerian wrote a new post, All on Board in the Greatest Stock Market Rally Ever 1 month, 1 week ago

    Stocks are cheap. That’s what Brian Wesbury of First Trust Advisors says. He counsels investors not to pay any attention to the people who claim the stock market rally from 2009 is due to Quantitative Easing by […]

    Numerian commented on the post, George W. Bush- Worst President EVER…or just a little misunderstood? 1 month, 2 weeks ago

    I would visit the George W. Bush museum if it had a waterboarding exhibit. I hope the planners for the Barack Obama museum are incorporating a Guantanamo forced feeding exhibit.

    The Boston Globe reports one of the suspects wanted by the FBI in the Boston Marathon bombings has been apprehended following a carjacking and chase from Cambridge, Massachusetts to Watertown, which led one MIT […]

    Numerian wrote a new post, Riverbend Returns with Lessons from the Iraq War 2 months ago

    The Agonist found an audience during the build-up to the Iraq War of 2003. There were not too many places people could turn to if they had questioning and doubtful thoughts about the wisdom of invading Iraq. For […]

    Numerian commented on the post, The Marginal Futility of Debt 2 months, 1 week ago

    Hi Scott,

    I hinted that there was something existential about Japan’s 20 year fight with deflation, zero interest rates, and zero growth. Japan has been challenged by something that is like anti-matter to […]

    Numerian commented on the post, The Marginal Futility of Debt 2 months, 1 week ago

    Thanks Don. While Arnie has a point that you are a Renaissance man with a variety of intellectual interests, your connection to the earth and the work necessary to produce something of value through agriculture […]

    Numerian commented on the post, The Marginal Futility of Debt 2 months, 1 week ago

    I’m trying to understand this response by China. I get the hypocrisy of it; the world is flooded with more hyprocrisy from its politicians and media than it is by liquidity generated through Quantitative Easing. […]

    Numerian commented on the post, The Marginal Futility of Debt 2 months, 1 week ago

    I was trying to think how to respond to Arnie, but I believe this quote says it better than I could:

    All currency is fiat currency – gold, dollars, bitcoins, because it all comes out of the willingness of […]

    Numerian wrote a new post, The Marginal Futility of Debt 2 months, 2 weeks ago

    At the end of World War II, as the world’s last remaining and therefore pre-eminent economic power, the United States was in the envious position of being able to generate nearly $1 of GDP growth for every […]

    Numerian commented on the post, Pay Attention! The EU and IMF confiscate private deposits 3 months ago

    We have two models we can follow.

    Model One requires the bankers to manage their assets (loans and investments) judiciously, so as to minimize losses from credit defaults and still generate an interest return […]

    Numerian wrote a new post, Pay Attention! The EU and IMF confiscate private deposits 3 months ago

    The next stage of the global financial collapse has now arrived.

    In an announcement this weekend, the EU and the IMF have come to the rescue of Cyprus, at the request of the government, by offering Euro 10 […]
