Robert Rosebrock is a 74-year-old U.S. military veteran who has his share of grievances with the Department of Veterans Affairs. Not least of them is the fact that VA Police arrested him for placing two small American flags on the fence of Los Angeles National Veterans Park, and taking photos.

Rosebrock and others have been demonstrating against the VA there nearly every Sunday and Memorial Day since 2008, according to court documents. They are upset that the large area of federal land that the VA controls is not used to care for veterans, but for other facilities, including a UCLA baseball stadium, a school, a theater, and laundry facilities for a hotel. Two of those demonstrations from last year stand out, however, because they resulted in Rosebrock getting arrested, leading to an upcoming trial.   Continue reading “74-Year-Old Veteran Fights Charges for Taking Photos, Placing Flags at VA Center Fence”

In April 2014, a Senate committee put out a report that said Caterpillar had crafted a tax-reducing strategy that shifted billions of dollars of profits away from the U.S. to Switzerland, where the company had negotiated a low tax rate, even though Caterpillar had not made “any real changes in its business operations.”

Nearly three years later, on Thursday, federal prosecutors in Illinois together with agents of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation office of inspector general, the Internal Revenue Service’s criminal investigation division and the Department of Commerce office of export enforcement, descended unannounced on Caterpillar’s headquarters. The feds also entered two other Caterpillar facilities in and around Peoria, Ill., executing a search and seizure warrant to collect documents and electronic information.   Continue reading “How A Swiss Affiliate Led To Thursday’s Federal Raid Of Caterpillar’s Headquarters”

Moody’s recently released a Sector In-Depth report titled “Retail and Apparel – US: Distressed Retail and Apparel Companies Are on the Rise. Who’s Next?” and its findings show that the retail bubble could soon be taking another major blow….Bankruptcy.

We all know that retail is a very volatile market. This factor causes many companies to turn to “financial sponsors” and hedge funds that, in return for the quick cash, offer highly leveraged funds causing many retailers to end up struggling under debt with the terms set by the sponsors. Due to these agreements distressed bond issuers in the U.S. retail and apparel markets are nearing levels that haven’t been witnessed since the Great Recession of 2008-2009, tripling in the past six years.   Continue reading “These 19 retailers are on the brink of bankruptcy…13,216 stores to close?”
