So, I've been obsessing over what's going on in Japan because my sister-in-law's family live about 200 miles from where the big stuff happened and we're worried. I found an interesting and informative news article about the radiation cloud already having reached California and a real-time map showing the progression of the cloud. It was just kind of a FYI thing, mostly for my sake, but since the rest of my family is following the news too, we have another too ...

I would encourage you to watch Sky News about the fire. You will see how the politicians there are taking a lot of hatred from the victims of that high rise fire. They hate PM May. The Queen came out right away as did the one running against the PM. She waited till today. Anyway, you can watch it live or slide the slider back to the beginning and you can watch what has been on all day. It is very interesting. The death toll is now 30 and they are missing 70 more. I think there were betw ...

NEW YORK (Reuters) U.S. shoppers spent 6.4 percent more this Black Friday weekend than last year and hit department stores and clothing shops, rather than focusing on discounters as they had done in recent years.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Pending home sales unexpectedly surged in October, hinting the economic recovery has legs. Also, the four-week moving average for jobless claims fell to a fresh two-year low, though new claims were higher for the week. "Fear is evaporating ever so slightly. The economy is not falling off a cliff, giving investors a glimmer of hope," said Kim Caughey Forrest, senior equity research analyst at Fort Pitt Capital Group in Pittsburgh. ...

that whoever you are, you have the same chance as anyone else to rise, with pluck, industry, and talent. But they imagine wrong. The U.S. today lags behind many of its First World rivals in terms of mobility. A class society has inserted itself within the folds of what was once a classless country, and a dominant New Class—as social critic Christopher Lasch called it—has pulled up the ladder of social advancement behind it.... ...A complacent Republican establishment denies this change h ...

It makes no difference in terms of the economic impact on wages whether an employer exports the work to where the cheap labor is located, or takes advantage of cheap labor that comes to where the work is located. The only difference is that one means used to drive wages lower and keep them low is legal, while the other means is not. Think about it. Just about everyone on this forum hates what offshoring has done to OUR wages, and yet some support illegal and/or unrestricted immigra ...

Excerpt of statement from the NY Times Editorial Board, link to entire statement below. "Early this year, it was widely acknowledged that the economy was in for a tough patch. The “fiscal cliff” showdown at the end of 2012 had led to higher payroll taxes and had locked in earlier cuts to jobless benefits, while “the sequester” — deep and arbitrary federal spending cuts enacted to end a previous debt standoff — kicked in on March 1. The only consolation at the ...

is running into much the same intractable head-butting instead of sensible solutions here as the rest of the country. “I’ve been in politics for 30 years, and I saw firsthand after I was elected the split within the Democratic Party,” said Eric Johnson, who was in the Georgia legislature for 15 years. “Now you’ve got the rural conservative Republicans and the suburban moderates and libertarians. I don’t think you have as broad an ideological split as the ...

median income would soar by more than $22,000. Nearly 26 million jobs would be created. The unemployment rate would fall to 3.8%. Those are just a few of the things that would happen if Bernie Sanders became president and his ambitious economic program were put into effect, according to an analysis given exclusively to CNNMoney. The first comprehensive look at the impact of all of Sanders’ spending and tax proposals on the economy was done by Gerald Friedman, a University of Mas ...

Income Inequality May Take Toll on Growth By ANNIE LOWREY WASHINGTON — Income inequality has soared to the highest levels since the Great Depression, and the recession has done little to reverse the trend, with the top 1 percent of earners taking 93 percent of the income gains in the first full year of the recovery. The yawning gap between the haves and the have-nots — and the political questions that gap has raised about the plight of the middle ...

I used to vote for who I wanted in office because we had credible, responsible candidates - promising, at the least. Now I vote to keep out the lesser of the evils. All that aside, my thoughts for the whole nation on any election day: 1. May we all vote in peace, without threat or harm or intereference. 2. May all who are able to vote soberly cast their vote. 3. May we be able to pull together and get behind those who prevail and make the best of the process, regardle ...
