Loading ...As the political campaign ramps up, the McCain cohort is trying to shape the debate of American politics around the single issue of Homeland Security.
However, there is no objective reason to believe that the current administration’s policies are the way to go.
There are two conflict hypothesis based on which the current two-front war is being […]
This 4th of July, as we’re celebrating independence and freedom, many senators are getting ready to come back to Washington and sell out some of our most fundamental freedoms.
Don’t let it happen.

Dear ACLU Supporter,

For a long time I’ve studied the works of
Gann,
Elliott and
Kondratiev trying to gain some foresight into the economy cycles. My costly conclusion is that none of these methods work. However, before throwing them out of the window, let’s see why they fail, when they fail and to what extent they may have […]
