I don't know who gave "permission" to float the idea, but it's more than a farce. It might be a first step to merging the Federal Reserve into...
I think that would just provide political cover for enormous tax increases.
I don't think this is necessarily a problem. It may be a very simple but profound solution. It's better than being a debt slave and no more...
No. The primary benefit of the coin in my opinion is that it wakes people up to the fact that it isn't necessary to borrow in order to have...
Probably a trillion. :) I think it's a good idea if only to draw attention to the improbability of paying that much debt. Maybe it will be the...
"When you factor in the probability that there will have to be a default of some kind, I don't know when, it might be advantageous to have a high...
I'm not sure there would be any difference between the Fed holding a trillion dollar coin and the Fed holding treasury securities. It's in line...

If your goal isn't to earn a high rate of return, I think you will succeed. Jesse didn't trade gold because gold was money for most of his...
I recall an episode of the old Barney Miller TV show where they captured a criminal who said he was from the future and Sgt. Harris found out that...
No, but it seems that markets frequently act this way, and probably will again. Jesse Livermore used to constantly preach that it is necessary to...
