Article I, Section 7 of the Constitution says all bills for raising revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives . Toss that right in the sewer. The US Constitution is now little more than a rhetorical weapon for those not in power to use against those in power, while those in power ignore it. Four years later, reverse the parties, same crap.

- Do you know when the bottom is? I don’t.
Almost nobody can predict when the bottom arrives, except the pundits, who claim to have done so after the fact. But they didn’t either. I routinely make the suggestion to hold cash positions: for emergency funds and to take advantage of stocks that go on sale from time to time. Cash loses to inflation, of course, but it gains buying power as asset bubbles burst. And with the bums controlling government purse strings and the bums controlling the Federal Reserve printing presses, asset bubbles tend to grow and burst.

- Oil Is $136 on the Ground. Why Does Wall Street Say $95?
There’s an old saying about explosions: you see the flash long before you hear the bang. I’ve been thinking about that a lot lately. Matt: “And we saw the flash on February 28th. You could see the flash, and you could see all of this happening, but there’s no bang yet.” Six months ago, my worst case for the Strait of Hormuz was a couple thousand Marines landing somewhere and a bloodbath. I never imagined Saudi Arabia and Yemen at war and the whole thing spreading. Doug says the really worst hasn’t happened yet. Oil on the ground vs. oil on paper North Sea oil trades at spot for $136 a barrel…
- No Body to Blame
Can you expect a corporation, a union, an association, or a government to have a conscience? The law needs an entity that can pretend to be a person A company has to make contracts, hold title to land, and sue and be sued. I have no quarrel with that. If the law couldn’t treat it as an entity in its own right, every lawsuit would have to name every shareholder, and the list would change daily. Limited liability is another component. It lets strangers pool money without risking their houses. The trouble starts when the convenience gets perverted into a pretense that a corporation or other…
- Kunstler: Half the Country Is Literally Insane
is the best read of my week. He posts at every Monday and Friday morning, and he tracks the legal fallout from the Biden years more closely than anyone I know. His World Made by Hand novels are some of my favorite books. Doug is reading them now and compares them to Tolkien. So I asked him the question I hear most from people who voted for Trump. Where’s the justice? Is anyone who did this going to pay? Jim: “To cut to the chase, I do think that a number of people are going to be justifiably prosecuted.” He thinks nothing moves until after the midterms, because the Justice Department won’t…

- The Bucks Stop Here
In the Old West, frontier poker players used a marker to indicate the dealer, often a knife with a buckhorn handle. A player who did not want the deal slid the knife to the next man. He passed the buck. Harry Truman had a desk sign that read “The Buck Stops Here.” In his 1953 farewell address he explained it: “The President—whoever he is—has to decide. He can’t pass the buck to anybody. No one else can do the deciding for him. That’s his job.” Doug Casey's Crisis Investing is a reader-supported publication.
