I wondered when the great bank bail out in the United States happened how Canadian banks fared? The report is out. The Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives senior economist examined the data. We sank. We went down hard and fast. There would have been no survivors except for a total of $114 billion i...

I remember as a child getting things that glowed in the dark out of my cereal box for free. They were penny item promotions. The coins I earned in my allowance were 80% silver 20% copper. They were reduced to a 50/50 mix. Then, as an adult, they became 99% nickel. I think I could say that was serious debasement in value. They now claim they are cupro-nickel. That could be a step up except the Mint's websit...

The world is awash with stories of mysterious trillions that are off the books and inane counterfeiters that are carrying bonds of proportions unheard of in the financial world. These fools actually counterfeited bonds totalling $6 trillion dollars and fake billion d...

There are strange things happening in the Eurozone. The Irish government has decommissioned 1.4 billion Euros and shredded them. An enterprising individual has built a house out of them.

"Eye of newt, and toe of frog,

Wool of bat, and tongue of dog,

Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting,

Lizard's leg, and howlet's wing,--
