Thanks! Was it in one of your articles that I read the data showing the economic effects of majoring in the "hard" sciences, engineering, or business vs majoring in the humanities, arts, or soft "sciences?" Even with that difference, participation rates are high and unemployment rates are low for college grads. It's be fun to see the data split out--my hunch is that un and under employed grads did not major in the humanities, etc.

Excellent analysis of foreign policy issues. Clearly, the Obama administration pursues a policy of "fundamentally misconstruing the nature of the enemy." It raises the question: Does the Obama administration misunderstand the nature of the enemy or do they merely misconstrue it to fundamentally mislead US citizens and voters?

Bravo! Excellent summary/overview of the situation.

Good question--it could be his economic policies or it could be his education policies or it could be any number of things. specificity makes the case more effectively

You also lost your "right" to buy fresh dinosaur meat. And nonprocessed milk. And you can't by a new Rolls Royce at your Ford dealership. Please: phony "rights" lost are not to be bemoaned.

Off topic, but Pavlich is always worth reading

Thanks, Ms. Pavlich! You didn't have to say more!

Thanks, Ms.Pavlich!

Wayne, here's a thought: just read the article and do not click. The links are there to provide support for the points made in the article. I, for one, am thankful the links are there; there are way too many opinion pieces floating around that cannot be supported by evidence or reasoning based upon principle and evidence.

Thanks! A useful and informative analysis. Another point is that stocks, carefully selected, are among the best hedges against inflation. My hunch is that "wealthy" people with cash are already fully invested; whereas, the "ordinary" investor is watching food and energy prices gobble up discretionary spending. (Food as discretionary spending? Yes, less expensive cuts of red meat, more poultry, follow the seasons on veggies, etc.)
