Too Little, Too Late

You’re a little late to the party, guys.The Washington Post: “We have managed to acquire $13 trillion of debt on our balance sheet,” he fumed to a roomful of voters. “In my view, we have nothing to show for it.” And that was a Democrat, Sen. Michael Bennet of Colorado, who voted “yes” on the […]

On Regulatory Capture
