Payment companies such as Paypal, Square, Apple Pay and Stripe do not allow their services to be used for firearms-related purchases, the Washington Examiner reported.

Socialism And The Welfare State In Nordic Nations

The Nordic nations punch above their weight in global discussions of economic policy. Advocates of bigger government in the United States, such as Bernie Sanders, claim that those countries are proof that socialism can work. But there’s a big problem with that claim. The Nordic nations don’t have any of the policies – government ownership, central planning, or price controls – that are characteristics of a socialist economy. But they do have high taxes and big welfare states. And since some politicians seem to think America should copy those policies, let’s see what we can learn by examining the Nordic nations.

Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have been on a persistent upswing this year, but they're still pretty volatile. But during a time when even some of the most developed economies in the word are watching their currencies bounce around like the Argentine peso (just take a look at a six-month chart for GBPUSD), New Zealand has decided to take the plunge and become the first country to legalize payment in bitcoin, the FT reports. The ruling by New Zealand’s tax authority allows salaries and wages to be paid in cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin from September 1, as long as the payments are in regular, fixed amounts. The digital currency of choice must also be pegged to at least one ...

For the first time in nearly 20 years, Congress has reined in civil forfeiture, which lets the federal government permanently confiscate property without ever filing criminal charges.

After Plan To Earn Toy Money Turns into Huge Success, Brothers Donate Hundreds to the Homeless By Steven Bowman Published August 3, 2019 at 9:18am The Gill brothers hail from Indian Head, Maryland, and are inspiring young and old alike with their example of creativity and entrepreneurial spirit. It all began in October 2017 when Collin (13), Ryan (11) and Austin (8) approached their parents about getting a raise in allowance so that they could purchase more toys and video games. The brothers had maxed out their toy allowance, so their parents told them to “get a job or start a business” if they wanted to raise more money. They decided to start a business, and at their ...
The Donald Means MABA: The Great Fiscal Miscreant Will Make America Broke Again

You couldn’t have timed that better. The Donald managed to hold on to a “2” in Friday’s GDP report, but it was entirely due to a boom in government spending. We’d call it a kind of stick save that came, ironically, the very day Trump is planning to sign a $1.7 trillion budget abomination. The deal negotiated with Pelosi and Chuckles Schumer, and voted against by a large majority of House Republicans, shit-cans the decade-old discretionary spending caps and permits unlimited Federal borrowing through June 2021. So who needs Hillary? Or even Barry! As it happened, the 2.035% seasonally adjusted annualized growth rate for Q2 made it over the hump by a smidgen on ...

Mr. Trump now fully owns the Potemkin status quo of record stock markets poised against a withering rot of human capital at the core of an industrial society in sunset mode. Leadership at every corner of American life — politics, business, media — expects an ever-higher tech magical updraft of fortune from an increasingly holographic economy of mere fugitive appearances in which everybody can get more of something for nothing.

Deal or No-Deal, Brexit Dooms the Euro

Deal or No-Deal, when it comes to Brexit, the euro is toast. Markets, however, believe the fantasy of its survival. As we approach the end of July the euro clings to support at $1.11, mere pips away from a technical breakdown. That breakdown will trigger a wave of asset liquidation and another round of negative headlines emanating from troubled German banks. With 10 Downing St. now saying No-Deal is acceptable, the hard line negotiating tactics of the European Union have hit a rocky shore. Because it looks like Boris Johnson is ready to give as good as he gets. I’ve been saying this for a long time. The EU is not a tough nut to crack. They have no leverage in these Brexit ...

Gold is calling out the insanity of the European Union. It is also calling out the insanity of the global economy. But really it’s all about the euro at this point. Since breaking through the post-Brexit high of $1375 per ounce, gold has pushed higher. Yes, it’s been volatile. Yes, the forces of control keep trying to stuff gold back inside the box, as it were. And they keep failing. Last week’s price action was impressive, even if the close was less than stellar. In the world of financial commentary everyone is looking for proximate causes for spikes and dips. But most of that is simply noise. I don’t care why gold touched $1450 last week, only that it did.

pmf... If it does not kill Boeing, it is going to maim the company well into the future. Reason: Because it is a piece of crap put together by FOREIGN engineers who started life cooking with cow dung, got a less than stellar diploma, and then wooed a foolish SJW with "Me better than white male". FACT: If the problem with this plane could be rectified, they would all be flying now. If they are not flying by now, they never will fly. A multi billion dollar company is in a major push to try to solve the problems with this plane, and $10 billion later got nothing in the air again. To repeat what is obviously happening to these planes, after eyewitnesses saw one dropping clothes and ...

TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian Oil Minister Bijan Namdar Zanganeh underlined that the US sanctions have failed to stop Iran's oil supplies to other countries. "Zanganeh guaranteed in the meeting that Iran's oil sales continue under any circumstances, specially under sanctions, and we will not allow any disruption in oil sales," Ali Sari, a senior MP, quoted Zanganeh as saying in Tehran on Tuesday in a meeting with the Iranian lawmakers. "Sanctions leave no impact on Iran's oil sale," Zanganeh added, according to Sari. Iran has denied US claims that sanctions have cut off the country’s oil exports to zero, saying it would exhaust any channel to ship its oil ...

TEHRAN (FNA)- Chairman of the Suez Canal Authority Mohab Mamish dismissed Arab media reports claiming that a Ukrainian oil tanker carrying Iran's oil to Syria has been seized in the Canal. "The Suez Canal Authority is bound to the freedom of international shipping in the Canal and permits all ships to cross the Canal except in special conditions," Mamish was quoted as saying by the Arabic-language Sad al-Balad news website on Wednesday. "No ship can be prevented from crossing the Suez Canal; oil and weapons trade are both legitimate," he added. Mamish said that Egypt will prevent passage of vessels if it receives an order by the UN to do so; or the ship carries ...

Boeing’s 737 Max Software Was Outsourced to $9-an-Hour Street-Shitting Engineers

This is not the type of individual who you want programming code for software used to control an aircraft. One of the biggest aviation related stories in the past several months have been the crashes of two Boeing 737 Max planes. The crashes forced a mass grounding of the plane model. At first these crashes were assumed to be largely the result of the racially diverse pilot crews. After all, it was an Ethiopian Airlines flight and a Lion Air flight that crashed. Ethiopian Airlines is the state-run airliner of Ethiopia and Lion Air is a low cost Indonesian airliner. While pilot error may have certainly contributed to these crashes, it looks like software problems may have also played a ...

Could a Cryptocurrency Become a Global Reserve Currency?

Will bitcoin appear on this chart of global reserve currencies in the future? Could a non-state cryptocurrency like bitcoin become a global reserve currency? I first proposed the idea back in November 2013, long before bitcoin's rise to $19,000, decline to $3,200, recent ascent to $13,000 and current retrace. The idea is intriguing on a number of levels. In terms of retaining value though thick and thin, the ultimate reserve currency cannot be printed (and thus devalued) with abandon by a government. Gold and silver have served as the ultimate reserve currency, as precious metals can be traded for commodities and services, provide collateral for debt and serve as reliable stores of ...
