Deja Vu
Finance
August 31, 2010 - Perspective on the News
The U.S. government first realizes its options are probably limited in regulating the economy. Its political solution demands it get prepared to cut back its stimulus policies. The year was 1920 and the onset of the Great Depression had begun. http://www.omegaletter.com/articles/articles.asp?ArticleID=6860

Ode to Idiots
July 08, 2010 - Perspective on the News
The arrogance of the idiots in charge (TIIC) never ceases to amaze me. It seems like the more degrees, certifications and acronyms some of these idiots acquire, the more pompous they become. They flaunt their credentials in the faces of the “less-educated” as if they’ve obtained some secret and privileged knowledge that only they are good enough to know. http://www.omegaletter.com/articles/articles.asp?ArticleID=6830

The Day The World Said No
Finance
June 28, 2010 - Perspective on the News
The world’s developed nations handed President Obama a big thumbs down to his economic views this week at the G20 summit in Toronto.

When Rear Ends Need Kicking
Finance
June 21, 2010 - Perspective on the News
When the Obama administration ordered a six-month moratorium on all deepwater drilling after the April 20 Deepwater Horizon disaster he was attempting to show who was in charge of the disaster.

Hollyweird and Worship
June 09, 2010 - Perspective on the News
Over the past decade, the growth in Reality Television has skyrocketed to unbelievable heights. It seems like if one is willing to forgo a little dignity, desires to have a chance at winning a large sum of money, and have a chance at fame, no price seems too high to pay. http://www.omegaletter.com/articles/articles.asp?ArticleID=6811

Hey Buddy. Can You Spare a Buck?
Finance
June 07, 2010 - Perspective on the News
Treasury Secretary Geithner made the world circuit this week to the G20 countries. His message? Start spending; the U.S. economy requires it. Geithner’s approach is akin to the man in the Cadillac asking the panhandler if he could spare a buck. It isn’t going to happen. http://www.omegaletter.com/articles/articles.asp?ArticleID=6810

May 31, 2010 - Perspective on the News
As the debt crisis spreads throughout the world, we are now in a race against time over which happens first, the crisis or the reform. In the U.S., financial reform is still a matter of diminishing faith and little has been done to solve our underlying debt problem. The crisis is quite real and it’s on top of us. http://www.omegaletter.com/articles/articles.asp?ArticleID=6804

Practical
April 19, 2010 - Perspective on the News
After reading Jack’s commentary on “Religion's OK -- Just Keep God Out of It,” I must have seen at least three different shades of red after my temper boiled to the point of sizzling. Nothing should surprise me anymore, but I still keep shaking my head; wondering if any semblance of reality will return before the Rapture. http://www.omegaletter.com/articles/articles.asp?ArticleID=6774

Is the Euro Reordering the EU?
Finance
March 29, 2010 - Perspective on the News
Greece is slowly collapsing under the weight of its own debt while the rest of Europe looks on like spectators passing a bad accident. Years of low productivity and government spending has left Greece with few options but to default on its sovereign obligations as a nation, or to be bailed out by its richer EU sister nations. It has unintentionally become a sign of Europe’s financial and political future; a canary in the mine signaling a potential re-ordering of the EU itself. http://www.omegaletter.com/articles/articles.asp?ArticleID=6751
