While everyone has been preoccupied with the war in the Middle East and the anti-ICE protests going on around the nation, economic conditions in the U.S. have continued to deteriorate. The housing market is in abysmal shape, consumer spending is down and layoffs are way up. Meanwhile, fear of our seemingly endless cost of […]
Can anyone explain to me what just happened? The last 24 hours have been beyond weird. Just hours ago, everyone was freaking out because Iran had just fired a bunch of missiles at a major U.S. military base in Qatar. But then we found out that most of the missiles were intercepted, not a single […]
Our way of life depends on cheap energy. If you remove cheap energy from the equation, our society will be thrown into a state of chaos.

How are businesses supposed to plan for the future if they have no idea what the rules of the game are going to be?
