What in the wide, wide world of sports is going on with car prices? Now, I knew they were expensive – and we’ve already established how cheap I am – but, you know? It’s one of those things that doesn’t really smack you in the chops until you see a...

Welp, unions are shooting for the stars and hitting some of them lately. American pilots were going to sign a new contract at first, but then they got airline envy.
In March, those rival Delta guys had done pretty well for themselves…
Delta pilots have officially ratified a...

It might be raining in California in August, but it’s the driest it’s been in Panama in about 100 years. And that is causing some serious problems at a place that never really registers in the national consciousness anymore – the Panama Canal.
And it really should, as 40%...

I don’t even know what to say.
“There’s an airport right up the road. Why isn’t that being used? There’s ocean front 20 feet from our lobby. Why are we not using that?”
This will tear your heart out. I can’t stop crying.

When last we saw our dueling parties, the UAW had voted to authorize a strike against Ford, GM, and Stellantis and was thoughtfully laying out what it would take from the companies not to walk off the job on the 14th of September.
Lots of cha-ching, for starters....

The climate cultists ensconced in the Biden administration and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have been in an all-out assault on the American way of life since assuming power. And by power, I mean their power-trip. Never before has there been such an intrusive, unending, and concerted effort to...

I guess it was about time. I haven’t really been snortin’ fire about student loan anything since last fall’s blogging flurry when Biden forgiveness schemes and court cases smacking them down were going back and forth.

Here is another in a line of inexorable “told you so’s.” At the beginning of August, I’d posted that the German Green dream was crashing more than just the Hofbräuhaus (tavern) budgets of burgermeisters’ rural citizens. It was coming for Germany’s vaunted industrial complex.

So the putschists in Niger have gotten around to doing a little math on their own, and decided that what they’ve been receiving for their uranium is way below market value. They’ve upped the price in an effort to realize more of an equal return from one of their most...

Things in the job market look to be slowing down, no matter what ALPA, the Teamsters, and UAW think is going on.
Hiring slowed this summer and unemployment rose in August, signs the labor market is cooling in the face of high interest rates.

As the old saying goes, “If you don’t give them the stick to beat you with to begin with…” That’s probably the reason behind this reticence shown by the State of New York to release last year’s public school test scores. Schmaybe they haven’t worked out a duck-and-cover schmeme yet...

Oh, the headlines two years ago were horrific – HORRIFIC.
It was every racist, oppressive, creepy boarding school nightmare scenario come to life, and just one more baseball bat to the reputation of a colonizing, supremacist Roman Catholic Church.

ZOMG! Have the brainiacs followed the yellowoke path to diversity, equity, and inclusion mediocrity?
Caltech drops calculus, chemistry, physics class requirements if your school doesn't offer them, allowing you to take Khan Academy instead.
Doesn't seem that crazy. Until you notice they also got rid of the SAT,...

Well, that’ll raise the diplomatic temperature several degrees.
