The big to-do on the blogs is immigration again. As a free market capitalists and pragmatists, the Grey Enlightenment supports more high tech immigration because it will help the economy, in addition to supporting immigration reform and securing the borders. It’s doesn’t have to be a choice between only open borders or no immigration at… Continue reading Immigration

The slow news cycle guarantees more upside for stocks, and sure enough, the major market indexes surged 1% today. No one on Wall St. losing sleep over Putin, Israel, or Ebola – exactly as I predicted last week. I miss the IQ wars of Steven Pinker vs. Malcom Gladwell with iSteve refereeing. An interesting article… Continue reading Liberal Attacks on ‘Nerd’ Culture

Revenue came in at $857.5 million, versus a consensus estimate for $813 million. Of course, the libs cry ‘socialism’ because Tesla got a loan and subsidies; the… Continue reading Tesla Reports Huge Earnings; Score One for America and Capitalism

The gloomers like Aaron Clarey say that America will enter a major decline due to too much debt and the usual factors that have already been covered to death,… Continue reading Enjoy the Decline? No thanks

America’s Poorest Shoppers Are Putting Discount Stores Out Of Business Sensationalism at its worst and yet another example of liberals, such as the author of the article, wanting to see successful businesses fail or the predicting failure of successful business.
