    I love this. Police routinely pull trash of citizens for evidence of wrong doing. Mayor, DA, police chief all support it.


    Small time newspaper pulls their trash. Some of the pols were not amused. At all.

    RUBBISH!

    It's past midnight. Over the whump of the wipers and the screech of the fan belt, we lurch through the side streets of Southeast Portland in a battered white van, double-checking our toolkit: flas ...,News

        Administration's attempt to protect coal and nuclear fails: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.4b230b95f9f4

        The momentum is clear. Solar is in many areas of the world the cheapest way to produce power. Shell's CEO says he's gonna buy an electric car. Half of new-car sales in petrostate Norway are electric. No new Volvos from '19 will be solely internal-combustion engines. The invisible hand is guiding us in a very clear direction.

        Hopefully this atavistic nonsense about coal can be put to bed, in part because we should have a smarter debate about nuclear. I'm for it. IMO the hypothetical risks pale in comparison to the certainties that come with fossil fuels.

        Obviously for me personally the climate-change debate is all that really and truly matters, but for the US the byproducts are massive in foreign policy. Tank the oil price by moving on and you kneecap most of the most significantly bellicose actors out there.

              (1) While expectations for regulatory easing and tax breaks that Trump has championed have caused the value of equities to rise, I will guarantee you that there will be a 10% correction at some point during Trump's term. What will his explanation be?

              (2) 52% of Americans own stocks (includes IRAs and 401Ks). That number is sharply down since before 2008. The distribution of stock ownership by income, however, is quite dramatic. The highest income earners have benefited the most while the bottom income levels have barely benefited at all.

              If that's all we get is a 10% correction that would be fine with me--there will come a day when it all comes crashing down we all know that. the question is how much and when--after 2020 if its less then 10 %----well a lot of people are a lot richer then they were before nov 2009--52% it sounds like

              Its really been only since 2000 or so that people have been piling money into iras--are you saying there are less ira's today then 2008 also? because I find that hard to believe but bottom line--those 52% with stocks--a lot are going to go out of their way to vote with what policy got them their expanded portfolios this last year

                Do any of you care that the economy is simply maintaining (or slowing) the trajectory during the bleak 0bummer years? Or is your economic outlook tied directly to the party of the person in he White House?

                  S&P 500 is on the same trajectory it's been on since '10. It has very little to do with Trump. In fact it's almost alarming how little the trend line has changed despite the breaks corporations have received in the past year.

                              You are welcome. When I'm president you can be HUD Secretary, with a chance of upgrade to Education if you say at least four more nice things about me before I get the nomination.
