Collapse Coming

Social Security deficit slides to worst showing in a generation

Steve at No Runny Eggs has kept a close eye on the financial statements from the Social Security administration, and he has good reason to do so.  Earlier this year, we began to see monthly deficits from SSA, a result of income drops as the recession and unemployment deepened.  However, with the Obama administration arguing that the economy has already begun its recovery, the deficits at SSA have hit their deepest ever

Payback For Not Taking The Bailout?

UAW rank-and-file reject Ford contract

Do I detect a bit of payback in this story?  The UAW rank-and-file rejected a renegotiated contract from Ford intended to bring themselves into parity with GM and Chrysler, as has long been the practice for the Detroit automakers.  In doing so, the workers also rejected the counsel of their own union, which had endorsed the new contract.  Ford will have to operate at a disadvantage for the next two years in terms of compensation as a result

Nevertheless, the rejection will almost certainly mean more cutbacks at Ford, especially if the economy doesn’t ramp up.  This could be a very public example of cutting off one’s nose to spite one’s face.

Censorship?

Kerry wants Law Library report on Honduras retracted

A month ago, the Law Library of Congress reviewed the removal of Manuel Zelaya from his post as President of Honduras, an act that the Obama administration called a “coup” and demanded reversed for its illegality.  To the embarrassment of the White House and State Department, the Congressional body determined that Honduras acted lawfully in removing Zelaya for his crimes against their constitution, although they determined that his exile broke Honduran law.  Now John Kerry wants the Law Library to retract its findings, apparently trying to rewrite history to hide the facts of the case

What has contributed most to the political crisis in Honduras?  The wrongheaded stance of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.  They have suspended visas and aid to Honduras, weakening one of the few strong alliances we have in Central America, just to interfere with what is truly an internal matter in Tegulcigapa.  The US has rejected the one real solution to the problem, a national election that had already been scheduled before Zelaya’s removal and one in which Zelaya’s own party wants to participate.
