To Reboot the Economy, $pend on Economic Infrastructure!

Posted on Sunday, June 7, 2020

This is nothing new, per se. The American Society of Civil Engineers has been saying this for quite some time, as well, which is that throughout America – coast-to-coast – we need to repair, enhance, and expand American economic infrastructure. And, I’ve been saying that what we TRULY need to reinvigorate the economy since the […]

Green New Deal? How about Economic Infrastructure New Deal, instead?

Posted on Thursday, November 7, 2019

Whether one “believes” Climate Change is “real,” or not, is totally a specious argument. Specious means “superficially plausible, but actually wrong.” Why is it specious? Arguing about what causes rain while your roof is leaking is pretty stupid, don’t you think? And yet, that’s exactly what’s happening. Some people (Climate Change Science deniers) are arguing […]

Economic Infrastructure Strained By Severe Weather And Climate Change

Posted on Sunday, February 10, 2019

Updated Saturday, 31 October 2020 Increasingly, there’s a political tie-in to almost every news story published these days. And frankly, I’d much rather write about other, more benign, or even pleasant topics. But, these matters affect us all, and our very lives and livelihoods are at stake. So, because these are pressing matters, I give […]

Cheating On Taxes, Bumming A Ride, And Economic Growth

Posted on Wednesday, June 30, 2021

Renown U.S. economist John Kenneth Galbraith (1908-2006) identified an economic theory – the “horse and sparrow” – which he described thusly: “If you feed the horse enough oats, some will pass through to the road for the sparrows.” Today, we call that “trickle down” economics – the theory popularized and promoted by POTUS Ronald Reagan.

Trump Tax Cuts Aided & Abetted Economic Collapse

Posted on Monday, April 20, 2020

The parallels are eerily similar. Republican POTUS, tax cuts, rising stock market, job losses… Great Depression. Of course, there are other markers along the way, but the primary ones are self evident. Jamie Dimon, Chairman and CEO of JPMorgan Chase wrote no less than twice that a recession was coming in the company’s April 6, […]

What Underutilized Renewable Alabama Resource Could Catapult The State Economically?

Posted on Thursday, January 14, 2016

Soon, the Alabama state legislature will reconvene, and soon enough, they will – once again – be faced with enormous fiscal shortfalls. And, once again as well, the Republican super-dominated Alabama state legislature will be reticent, reluctant, and recalcitrant to raise taxes… except upon those least capable of paying them. I refer, of course, to […]

The Biggest Economic Challenge of Obama’s Second Term

Posted on Monday, September 10, 2012

Investing in economic infrastructure is ALWAYS a sound decision because 1.) Materials and Manpower ALWAYS comes from the private sector (and always will), and; 2.) Economic capacity and economic opportunity expands. Note also these two remarks: “Corporations won’t hire more workers just because their tax bill is lower and they spend less on regulations. In […]

Common Sense: An Endangered Species?
