Mish's Global Economic Trend Analysis: The $2 Trillion Public Pension Hole and What You Can Do About It: "Populist Rage
That was page one of a three page article. I encourage everyone to read it all.
I am very grateful to Barron's for the opening sentence 'LIKE A CALIFORNIA WILDFIRE, populist rage burns over bloated executive compensation and unrepentant avarice on Wall Street.'
I get a lot mail suggesting I have been giving too much attention to unions and pensions. In reality, I have not been giving enough attention to the issue, or at least bloggers in general haven't.
There are a dozen blogs covering every aspect of the housing bubble, bailouts, and wall street salaries. Yet I am aware of no other major blogs covering the enormous pension problem in depth. Moreover, I have hardly shied away from bailout fraud, calling for the indictment of Geithner, Lewis, Bernanke and others on numerous occasions. Here is a list."

Obama's illusions of cost-control

"How often, for example, have you heard the emergency-room argument?
The uninsured, it's said, use emergency rooms for primary care.
That's expensive and ineffective.
Once they're insured, they'll have regular doctors.
Care will improve; costs will decline.
Everyone wins.
Great argument.
Unfortunately, it's untrue.
A study by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation found that the insured accounted for 83 percent of emergency-room visits, reflecting their share of the population."
The main reason is the liberal MSM "reports" EVERYTHING the lying liberals tell them.

"If the F-35 Lightning falls further behind, it will not only be bad news for the Air Force and it's fighter gap.
The Navy estimates it could be short 250 fighters in five years.
Levin called it 'a shortfall that's large enough that if it were realized could cause us to tie up aircraft carriers at the pier for lack of aircraft to send with them."
YIKES!
This is a big deal!

Obama Aides See ‘Extended Period’ of Unemployment
"U.S. employers won’t hire enough workers this year to lower the jobless rate much below the level of 9.7 percent reached in February, three Obama administration economic officials said today.
The proportion of Americans who can’t find work is likely to “remain elevated for an extended period,” .....
Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner, White House budget director Peter Orszag and Christina Romer, chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, said in a joint statement.
The officials said unemployment may even rise “slightly” over the next few months as discouraged workers start job-hunting again."

GRASSroots group to hold second meeting
GRASSroots group to hold second meeting
"The group, also known as GRASS, plans to focus the meeting on three specific areas of interest: city employees' health insurance benefits package, city employee wages and wage increases, and the city's pension system, representatives told 24 Hour News 8.
The health insurance benefits package is too expensive, GRASS alleges, and wages for city employees have surpassed comparable jobs in the private sector.
Group representatives also claim the city's pension system is not sustainable."
85% of the disposable spending of most cities is on employee/retiree compensation.
It's about time some group investigated where our public dollars are going.
You go GRASS!

Woman championed by Obama eligible for aid
Clinic: Woman championed by Obama eligible for aid
"A woman championed as the Obama administration's emblem for health care reform does not have to choose between her home and her health, according to officials at the Ohio hospital where she is being treated.
With a self-reported annual income of about $6,000, Natoma Canfield is a prime candidate for financial aid in the form of Medicaid - the federal health care program for low-income and disabled people - or charitable assistance."
Think about it!
The "brilliant" BarryO and his equally "brilliant" comrades searched the entire country to find the poster child of America's miserable health care system.
And they came up with a gal who is covered already.
I mean...this ought to be a big deal to Obama, right?
And they can't even find an American who is suffering from our "unfair" health system/
And they want even more power over our system?
Gimme a break!

'We're not sure where the money is going to come from.'
Amy VanLoon, executive director of the White Lake Area Chamber of Commerce, said her staff receives hundreds of inquiries a year about the lighthouse museum.
'People come from far and wide to see it,' VanLoon said."
Funny.
Everyone says the lighthouse is a treasure...but everyone says someone else ought to pay for it.
Sounds oh, so familiar.

How going green may make you mean Environment The Guardian
"When Al Gore was caught running up huge energy bills at home at the same time as lecturing on the need to save electricity, it turns out that he was only reverting to 'green' type.
According to a study, when people feel they have been morally virtuous by saving the planet through their purchases of organic baby food, for example, it leads to the 'licensing [of] selfish and morally questionable behaviour', otherwise known as 'moral balancing' or 'compensatory ethics'."

"Does State Rep. Mary Valentine support

Her recent letter to the

to some degree."

Good job, "Reform Review" in keeping her votes front and center!

"Americans are tired of politicians’ smooth answers, refusal to follow principles, and slick campaign talk.
However, some campaigns are doomed to defeat because they’re making basic errors.
As a former candidate, I made a couple big mistakes that I wish someone would have told me to avoid.
If people want to make a difference, they should avoid giving their money and energy to campaigns that have doomed themselves to political oblivion.
Here are the warning signs."

LSJ Blogs: Hey, Joe: The basics: "The basics"
March 14, 2010
The basics
Friday's game does indeed start at 7:20 p.m. Eastern, three cheers for the ink-stained wretches. Chris Allen will play, and Tom Izzo and Durrell Summers did meet Sunday.
Also: * The Spartans will essentially be playing to avenge Illinois on Friday. At least, that's how you could look at it considering New Mexico State is a "bid bandit" that stole an at-large slot away. I have to think Illinois was the last team left out, or awfully close to it. * The Aggies are fast, athletic and high-scoring, with six guys shooting above 33 percent from long range. And you may as well ignore everything this team did in the first half of the season. Athletic forwards Troy Gillenwater (6-8, 234, 14.4 ppg, 6.4 rpg) and Wendell McKines (6-6, 224, 10.8 ppg, 9.9 rpg) joined the team in February and December, respectively, after they gained academic eligibility. This is a totally different team with those two, and a huge reason the Aggies won the WAC tourney. * The Aggies also give it up on defense (77 points, 45 percent shooting) and have poor rebounding numbers. But again, they didn't have the 16 rebounds a game Gillenwater and McKines give them. * No tickets available for this one, it's sold out and MSU's 350 will go to the luminaries and top donors. However, I'm thinking that sellout has a lot to do with Gonzaga fans expecting the Zags to be there (instead of, say, Buffalo!) so if you can find a way out to Spokane, I'll bet you can find good seats at a good price outside the arena. * For Lansing-area residents, MSU's team banquet is Monday night, at Breslin for the first time. Admission is free, concessions open, doors open at 7:30 with the program starting at 7:45. You can sit in the green seats. * Arizona was not included, meaning MSU now has the third-longest NCAA streak with 13. Kansas is at 21 and Duke at 15. MSU's streak is the second-longest in Big Ten history. Indiana went to 18 straight from 1986 to 2003. * Izzo repeated that he will "mix it up" this week and look at lineup variations. Draymond Green, though, will stay in that sixth man role. Izzo said Kalin Lucas is out to prove something, in a good way.

NICE rejects ten drugs (allowed in Europe) that could have extended 20,000 cancer patients' lives
"Up to 20,000 people have died needlessly early after being denied cancer drugs on the NHS, it was revealed yesterday.
The rationing body NICE has failed to keep a promise to make more life-extending drugs available.
Treatments used widely in the U.S. and Europe have been rejected on grounds of cost-effectiveness, yet patients and their loved ones have seen the NHS waste astronomical sums.
Last week it emerged that £21billion - a fifth of the entire annual budget - was spent on failed schemes to tackle inequality."

Let's take their claims one by one, as a public service while everyone else focuses on the whip count."

Five of the dead were police officers who were attacked while on nighttime patrol on the outskirts of the Pacific Ocean resort, security officials said."
