Obamacare: You may be covered but....from Mike Haltman at TPC
Cartoon that factors in all of the circumstances and issues surrounding Obamacare and that leaves Americans with the result shown in this picture and the cartoon in the article.
This proves how once again It's good to be a politician because politicians watch out for their own meaning other politicians, not their constituents!

What you don't know CAN hurt you...................from Rico
What you don't know CAN hurt you. Badly.
You may have seen vague media references to the "Fiscal Cliff" or "Taxmageddon" [read: scheduled tax increases & spending cuts for 2013] but whatever it's called, it can crush you.
Yeah, in typical form, the MSM and politicians aren't doing a very good job of 'explaining' this to anyone...in fact, the 'baffle them with bullshit' rule seems to be very much in play.
In short, everyone in the US is going to take roughly a $4,000 "hit" because of the morons in Congress.
- So, look at the attached and decide in advance what YOU will "cut" to pay for it? Groceries? Utilities? Mortgage? Car?
Ayn Rand famously remarked that 'you could ignore reality, but you could NOT ignore the consequences of ignoring reality.'
- Neither can the consequences of the political hacks that get routinely elected be ignored. Not for very much longer, anyway.

The Gaffe Romney Should Have Made.....................from Dan Friedman
If Mitt Romney had talked about Palestinians the way Obama spoke about Pennsylvanians
Posted by William A. Jacobson, July 30, 2012
Mitt Romney is under furious attack from the Palestinian Authority, Hamas, and pro-Obama media for pointing out the truth about why culture matters in the economic success of Israel.
How would these people have reacted if Romney gave this speech:
You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania the Palestinian Territories, and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest Middle East, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing’s replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton Rabin administration, and the Bush Netanyahu administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not.
And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy toward people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant Israeli sentiment or anti-trade Jewish sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.
I suspect the reaction would have been what it now is, with absurd charges of racism and cultural insensitivity.
What a difference a continent makes.

From 4 cents to less-than-zero?.....................from Rico
Risk?
Bonds have long been considered "safe" sources of risk-free returns, and despite the massive over-indebtedness of governments, bond markets are many multiples of the size of equity markets. Trading volumes in equities are plunging, and money flows are quietly heading in the direction of bonds, reflecting the departure of retail investors from the rigged equity market casinos and the movement of institutional money into the safety of bonds.
Even the legendary Bill Gross of PIMCO says "The cult of equity may be dying...boomers can't take risk, Gen X and Y believe in Facebook but not its stock. Gen Z has no money."
But, buying bonds (governmental debt) is much like handing-over your paycheck to a drunken sailor on Saturday night on the 'promise and pinky-swear' you'll get it back.
- How many dozen times have we been told that 'Greece was fixed?' They've had two bailouts so far, and it's seriously looking like a third is needed. In fairness, other larger governments are bigger problems and just as untrustworthy and unreliable.
Looking at bonds from 30,000 feet you have to conclude that they are now "return-free risk."
Even that may very widely miss the mark. With all governments debasing their fiat currencies to cheapen their debt loads and 'juice' moribund economies, the point should not be 'return ON your money, but the return OF your money.'
- With the USD now worth about four cents, it's rather stupid to look at nominal 'gains' with the DJIA now over 13,000.....heck, it can go over 50,000 but this will be meaningless if paper becomes worth less-than-zero (think Zimbabwe).

Description: Norm St. Germain was one of 400 seamen aboard the USS Gambier Bay on October 25, 1944, the day the navy carrier came under intense enemy fire. Outnumbered and unable to escape, the courageous men defended their ship and one another – not knowing whether or not any of them would make it home alive.
