Armstrong Economics - The problem with people’s attitudes toward the national debt is that everyone has forgotten why we borrowed in the first place.

Armstrong Economics - Germany is moving full speed ahead to reach their asinine climate targets.

One of the first cases filed against the company came […]

Armstrong Economics -   Home prices in the US are near all-time highs. As I repeatedly stated, we can no longer look at real estate on the national level.
