Several Observations: On Russia Now  

by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.

In response to a report from Russia, the author highlights three major points to be considered to understand the global situation today: 1) the trend since the death of President Kennedy toward a globalized form of physical and financial decline internationally; 2) the rise of globalization, and its forceful enslavement of nations; and 3) the critical consideration: the embedded belief of the majority of people today in universal entropy. This belief is opposed to the reality that both human economies and the human species develop anti-entropically. As an appendix to his report, LaRouche includes a discussion of his Triple Curve forecast, distinguishing the three curves of a monetary economy, with the two curves of a credit economy.

Voter distrust that Washington has their interests at heart is increasing, as the physical economy ratchets downward since the Sept. 30 end of the fiscal year.

Forget Speculators; We Need Machine-Tool Operators  

by John Hoefle

Production of the machine tools in America is all but dead, as sales of these and related technologies plunged 68% in the first eight months of this year. That means not only layoffs, but the decimation of a skilled labor force.
