[Untitled] Between The Lines: Barack Obama's Shot Across Detroit's Bow | The ...: If this were a political blog perhaps it would be more appropriate to get into a back and forth on the details, e.g., I’d question your broad-brush comment that Obama “doesn’t appear to have had an original thought in his life.” But then to my mind politics is rarely about original thinking and mostly about building coalitions to solve problems. In other words, building trust is as important as brain power.

[Untitled] Scobleizer ”” Tech geek blogger » Blog Archive Why I love the US ...: It’s ironic that the current low gas prices will actually spur sales of larger cars and SUVs, the ones that are highly profitable to Detroit, and it will allow people to get more for their trade-ins if they want to downsize to smaller cars. So low gas prices actually HELP Detroit, but that doesn’t fit a worldview that hates anything carbon and embraces the most dire Global Warming models at the expense of people being able to pay their bills.

[Untitled] Fix the Tax Code Friday: Auto Industry Bailout: For most of the week, the headlines have involved the crisis in the automotive industry with eyes on the “Big Three”: Ford, General Motors (GM) and Chrysler.

[Untitled] Firedoglake » Economic Predictions Scorecard: I would say that anyone who is still worried about “hyperinflation” hasn’t got much of a track record to brag about. Further, since inflation is the big worry of the investing classes, I wonder how your economics, such as it is, could ever be considered progressive.

[Untitled] Sadly, No! » The Global Race To Confederate Yankee’s Bottom: You’d think the deep South would be the first to crash, with the Franklin Mint bubble taking out Waffle House and Cracker Barrel, whose collapse would wipe out the rustic knick-knack manufacturers, dropping the floor out from under the Beanie Baby speculators, and so on down the line until you reach John Deere, at which point it’s game-over for Amway, Carhartt, Philip Morris, Mary Kay, QVC, Bob’s Big Boy, and the whole line of dominoes leading from Bally/Midway and the rest of the video poker manufacturers to Winn-Dixie and Piggly Wiggly, and from there to one Branson concern after the next, wiping out Winnebago before toppling various Indian tribes and their casino buffet and dream-catcher keychain suppliers, landing subsequently on Disney itself, at which point the coastal elites would notice something missing but not be able to put their finger quite on what it was, until 3AM one night when they sat bolt upright in bed, saying, “Oh my God, whatever happened to the Jonas Brothers?”

[Untitled] John Paulson’s Toast to His Firm’s Fortunes - DealBook Blog ...: But for Paulson and the rest of the hedgefund business who are betting on the people who are betting on people who actually work for a living I cant believe we allow this hokey pokey to go on - and so unbridled. Its like I should go down to the OTB and open up Brown’s Hedgestand outside and open some bets on who is going to win in the room and who is going to lose (except I also include the business itself).

[Untitled] Big Three bridge loan fallout: The GOP kisses the Rust Belt ...: Don't get me wrong, the Big 3 have made plenty of poor decisions over the years, but the overall global economy played a major part in where things stand today.

[Untitled] Gas Prices, Fuel Efficiency, etc., Arnold Kling | EconLog ...: Anyone who thinks the existence of SUVs is a response to market demand doesn't understand the extent to which regulation created the segment.
