    If You’re a Saver, You’re a Sucker - Daily Reckoning (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    In the fall of 1923, a German housewife waited at the factory gate for her husband’s pay. Back then, workers got paid at least once a day because prices rose by the hour. A wife needed to be ready the instant the cash hit her hand. Then, like a relay runner handed a baton, she sprinted to the shops. The bread she bought at noon would’ve cost more by dinner. By November 1923, 1 U.S. dollar fetched about 4,200,000,000,000 (yes, 4.2 trillion) Reichsmarks. In 1914, it was worth only about 4. A Germa

    Excerpt

    Legend has it that in March 630, Emperor Heraclius rode up to the gates of Jerusalem in full imperial splendor. On his shoulder, he carried the most precious object in Christendom: the True Cross, the wood on which Christ was crucified. The story says that an angel reminded him that Christ entered this city on a donkey. So the emperor stripped off his robes, removed his shoes, and carried the Cross through the gate barefoot, like a penitent. The gate had opened for the humbled man. Historians wi

    The Recess Veto - Daily Reckoning (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Harry Truman won the White House by running against a Congress that outworked this one. In 1948, he barnstormed the country, blasting the “Do-Nothing” 80th Congress. That Congress passed the Marshall Plan, created the Department of Defense and the CIA, and put over 900 laws on the books. Ok, no institution is perfect, but that’s not the point here. Still, it got branded lazy, and the voters threw the majority out. On Wednesday, Speaker Mike Johnson canceled Thursday’s votes, sent the House home

    The Emergency Makeshift - Daily Reckoning (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Ludwig von Mises is sitting in his office at the Austrian Chamber of Commerce and has just written the most dangerous paragraph of his career. Of course, he doesn’t know that. But that paragraph will be clipped, stripped of context, and thrown in his face for the next century. His ideological enemies will use it to smear him. What’s even worse is that some of his supposed friends will use it to claim him. The book is called Liberalism. Chapter 1, Section 10 of the tome is titled “The Argument of

    The Coin Flip - Daily Reckoning (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    While teaching one of my graduate classes this summer, an interesting and incendiary topic came up. Students argued that Generation Z, the most recent up-and-comers, were at a massive disadvantage when it comes to earning power. My colleague vehemently disagreed with them, and a near brawl ensued. Sure, there’s a lot of whining going on, but I thought the kids had a point. How on earth can they afford anything with the way costs have spiraled out of control in New York City?
