My comment is true. It shows how screwed up families are today. Last but not least, do you identify with my friend’s dad. He has small feet.

WHEN Japan snaps (And it must. It’s a total economic train wreck right now) we’re not far behind. They hold about $1.2 trillion of our debt. We’ll have to bail them out. No other choice. And that will result in a spiral nose dive. Oh my! What a crooked web we’ve woven.

I read that Chapman doesn’t foresee another housing bubble? huh? The avg median price of a home in San Francisco is $1M for the first time. Over $400,000 in LA County. Requires an income of about $80,000 to buy-in on a crackerjacks box. In Orange County an average home would cost you about $610,000. How are those prices different from 2007? If that isn’t a bubble I’ll eat my hat. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t recall Chapman calling the big meltdown in 2008. Again, the first university economist that tells me that the money printing and perpetual 0% interest rates are unsustainable – yet if the interest rates normalize to historical levels of 6% plus our goose is cooked – I will be all eyes and ears. And that’s the truth, John. Common sense. Think about it!

Has Chapman does an analysis on the minimum $15/hr wage yet? But real world and college analyses are generally world’s apart. In Seattle where it’s been implemented mom & pop businesses are cutting way back on help. Can you blame them? The new wage would add about 30% to their operating costs. Their margins are so small that if they keep all their employees they’d have to go into liquidation. About 70% of the economy consists of small businesses. Alot of people will go from $10/hr. to $0/hr. Should they make more? Well, yeah. Everybody should make more. But economies don’t work like that. It’s basic math. Mr. Small Business has 2 choices to make his business worthwhile – lay off workers or lose his business. More unintended consequences of living in a liberal utopia!

They’re highly accurate. Doti graduated from the University of Chicago. Adibi was Doti’s student years ago at Chapman.
