On January 6, 2004, Senator Charles Schumer and I challenged the erroneous idea that jobs offshoring was free trade in a New York Times op-ed. Our article so astounded economists that within a few days Schumer and I were summoned to a Brookings Institution conference in Washington, DC, to explain our heresy.

Íslandsbanki would be second of the three largest banks under State proprietorship.   Continue reading “First They Jailed The Bankers, Now Every Icelander To Get Paid In Bank Sale”

Wireless internet access is on the rise in both modern consumer societies and in the developing world.

In rich countries, however, the focus is on always-on connectivity and ever higher access speeds. In poor countries, on the other hand, connectivity is achieved through much more low-tech, often asynchronous networks.

While the high-tech approach pushes the costs and energy use of the internet higher and higher, the low-tech alternatives result in much cheaper and very energy efficient networks that combine well with renewable power production and are resistant to disruptions.

In 1925, the Richardson family purchased the expanse of land and was delighted in its coastal bluffs, waterfalls, and history. One member of the family, however, always knew the land didn’t really belong to them, therefore, donated it back to the Kashia Band of Pomo Indians last week.   Continue reading “California Farmer Gifts 700 Acres Of Coastal Land Back To Native American Tribe”

In his October 27 speech at the annual International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) conference in Chicago, President Obama called for “common-sense gun safety reforms,” which, in the complete context of the speech, obviously means more federal and state gun-control laws.

Obama challenged the obvious conclusion made by those who have pointed out that in Chicago — with its draconian gun-control laws that have banned new sales and registration of handguns in the city since 1982 — tougher gun “safety” laws don’t help, and only make things worse.   Continue reading “Obama Pushes Federal Gun Control Laws During Chicago Speech”
