Lord Townsend on Trade and Morality-- Mises Daily: Thursday, December 02, 2010 by
Murray N. Rothbard
Charles, the third Viscount Townshend (1700–1764), has been shamefully neglected by

taxes on tea and other imports into the American colonies.

right now because the dollar is cheap....read article

On the Cause and Effect of Interest RatesMises Daily: Wednesday, March 30, 2011 by
Richard Cantillon[Excerpted from An Essay on Economic Theory (1755; 2010)]
It is a common idea, accepted by all those who have written on commerce, that an

ceiling hasn’t been raised by Congress...read on

to AA+ on Friday. While the extent of the downgrade is minor, the implications are
major. As the recent debt ceiling negotiations revealed, the U.S. cannot run its
day-to-day operations without borrowing money. It lives on credit (as do most
countries in the world today) and anything that impacts its ability to borrow money has
serious consequences.read on

Today's Stock Market Action Looks A Lot Like August 1998 - Thursday, August 18,
2011
Something is seriously bothering the stock market and the news that's out there isn't
enough to justify what is going on. Such was the case in August 1998 as well. What
caused the sudden bear market to appear out of nowhere in 1998 became fully
evident only after the fact. The same could be the case in August 2011.

selloff. Today, hopes of preventing a Greek default are causing markets to rally. This
