Anticipating the Devolution of Big Government

by charleshughsmith

With the US elections approaching next week, as well as the threat of another fiscal cliff showdown looming, we asked contributing editor Charles Hugh Smith to revisit his eariler work on how the expansive Central State has come to dominate both private society (i.e., the community) and the marketplace, to the detriment of the nation’s social and economic stability.

Storm Advisory: Hurricane Sandy Coming

by JW

A weather advisory to be aware of for this weekend is Hurricane Sandy. It is currently affecting Cuba, Haiti, and the Caribbean and will be approaching the U.S. East Coast over the coming days. Evaluate your winter storm preparations and supplies and monitor this storm over the next few days. Check your equipment and replenish your supplies now before the storm and beat the last minute rush. Better to be 3 days early than 1 day late.

One Fracking Minute

by JW

A simple and to-the-point animation describing the process of hydraulic fracturing and the methods used to get the oil and gas that is creating our energy boom. I wonder where all the water comes from and where it goes?

In a Bad Spot

by Chris Martenson

After traveling some, speaking with lots of people, reading, and digesting, I cannot escape the conclusion that things remain hopelessly off track. Whatever form of 'recovery' is being sought here simply will not arrive.

The core of my views is shaped by the idea that the very thing being sought, more economic growth (and exponential growth, at that), is exactly the root of the problem. I suppose I would take a similarly dim view of an alcoholic trying to drink their way back to health as I do the increasingly interventionist central bank and associated political policies the world over.

Go on then, drink more, but I think we all know what the result will be.
