As a former Canadian, Sally C. Pipes knows from where she speaks. Her new book The False Promise of Single-Payer Health Care artfully spells it all out.

While analysts believe a government takeover of the U.S. health care system has never looked more plausible. Support for the idea is at an all-time high, according to Gallup. Two-thirds of Democratic voters favor “single-payer” health care; even one in four Republicans is on board. But take a look at the United Kingdom’s single-payer system, for instance, which is in appalling turmoil. Most would agree that it would be foolish to import that failed model.

Frosty Wooldridge has bicycled around the traveling to over 100 countries and 6 continent. And he’s returned with a message. Over population is a major threat to the world and the US. If things keep going the way they are we’ll have over 438 million people by 2050. The third world is adding 80 million people per year. The numbers are absolutely staggering and unsustainable. Our 35 most populous cities will double within 30 years. California will have nearly 60 million people. Frosty believes the problem can be solved if we all become aware.

David Morgan‘s weekly perspective for March 17th, 2018…

Today’s monetary system is based upon a lie. The lie is that you can get something for nothing, or perhaps more simply stated, wealth can be printed. History has shown throughout 5000 years that whenever a country has tried to maintain this illusion (lie), failure has been the result. You Can Continue To Grow Your Wealth Regardless Of The Changing Winds Of Politics, The Economy And The Financial Markets. Let me show you how…

Dr. John R. Lott Jr. joined us again for a look at the Parkland massacre. While it’s nice to believe that with the simple passage of a law, such events will never happen again; the reality is quite different. John first proposed arming school officials back in 1998 and was met with universal shock and alarm. Even the NRA opposed it. What a difference 20 years can make. The absence of firearms, the definition of a gun free zone, only makes such targets more attractive. It’s time to wise up.

It’s good to be like, isn’t it? Heckla mining just made a major acquisition, a bullish trend is starting. More junior acquisitions on the way.

Another case of life imitating FSN. We predicted round 2 of the Trump tax cuts in December 2017, long before anyone else! And sure enough, Trump has done it, he’s doubling down on success. The legacy media just doesn’t understand how he works. And hopefully they never will. Q anon (the intelligence insider who has make nearly 1000 posts) has been busy at work. Even if half of what he says isn’t true, which has not been the case, there’s some amazing things happening. Could FBI Deputy Director McCabe be part of a plan to purge the deep state? Can we really trust Sessions and Wray? What’s going to happen next? Finally, there’s a Frito-Lay shortage in NYC due to another globalist plot to screw the working man. PepsiCo cut driver pay by 1/3 and can’t understand why they’re quitting in droves. Bean counters should be forbidden from managing anything other than a lemonade stand. Don’t get us wrong, some of our best friends are accountants, but their role should be to make sure financial controls are obeyed and to count the left over beans at the end of the year. That’s it!

Having helped grow several billion dollar companies while at Sequoia, Warren Hogarth knows exactly what separates good companies from great ones. Now, as a founder, he’s quite literally putting his skills to the test in building Empower – a personal finance app recognized by Time Magazine as one of the Best Apps of 2017. Warren says that the ultimate goal, explains is to have Empower be able to fully replace your bank’s app.“ We want to help you take action to get ahead – without you having to exit the app, go to your bank app, remember you password, move money around…[with Empower] from one place, you have control of everything,” he says. And over 200,000 current app users seem to agree.

According to Dr. Gerard Lameiro, it’s an exciting and hope-filled time to be alive. Rather than lamenting dismal times ahead as many pundits do, he argues persuasively that America has entered a new conservative era. He predicts that there will be a rebirth of morality in government; that we will see a return to more individual freedom; that we will witness peace with other nations as well as peace within America, resulting in a level of economic prosperity greater than ever before seen in the history of the world.

MORE Great News for America brings us up to date on where America stands using Dr. Lameiro’s long-range presidential election models to include his latest dynamic electoral models. And his ever-growing radio audience appreciates that Dr. Lameiro avoids the jargon of specialists, preferring to speak in direct, straight-forward, and commonsense language.

Al Caicedo believes that there’s probably more good economic news on the way. There’s always variables and unknowns, but with real unemployment at 8.1%, there’s plenty of room for better numbers. Wage growth has been slow, but the workforce participation rate has been ticking up. With a tight job market, wages could start going up. The tax cut should be putting more money in workers pockets. As always there’s winners and losers, but there are certainly more winners than losers. Corporate tax cuts should lead to higher wages and more jobs. How will they use that money?

Jordan Goodman believes that we’re in the midst of a trade war. Is China in a better position than the US? We will soon see. Mexico and Canada are making noises, but they’re not in a position to win. The US has all the leverage. The tax cuts have had a very positive impact on the economy. Small business is booming. Big corporations are getting the windfall and higher cash flow. Corporate buybacks are flourishing. Because the business tax cuts are permanent, there’s confidence in the future. But the debt continues to grow. And interest rates will rise. This puts investors in a bind, especially if you’re invested in long term treasuries. But there’s help on the way. Get ready for Phase 2 of the Trump Tax Cuts.

According to attorney Noel H. Flasterstein, the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., has thrust gun rights into the midterm campaign, scrambling traditions in both parties as the debate shifts toward firearms restrictions. Polls show solid support for stricter laws, especially after mass shootings. But there is also deep disagreement, staunch opposition and growing disenchantment with gun control. Why and what is the next step?

Martin Armstrong is still bullish on the stock market. Europe is still in trouble. Draghi isn’t abandoning QE so quickly. He’s trapped and so is the Euro. There’s a big bet against the Euro taking place as witnessed by the German Bund spreads. There’s a huge crisis in the offing. And it’s worldwide, the US and Europe and elsewhere. They need a minimum return of 8% and there’s few opportunities to get it. Forget government bonds, they’re a guaranteed loser. The ECB owns more than 40 percent of all government debt. Therefore, it’s impossible to cover future pension debt. Compared to the ECB, the Fed looks like it knows what it’s doing.

Live every day as if it would be your last, for one day you’re sure to be right. This is my all-time favorite quote from the classic movie Breaker Morant. Our schedule for the next week or two will be sporadic. My sister is in hospice now, her days are few. Grieving can be an incredible learning process and can be quite liberating. For one thing, it puts things in perspective. How can we be upset over minor disturbances in life, especially when we consider how short our lives truly are? We really don’t have time for it. The time to find peace in your life is now! When the people you love get to this point, you realize the absolute triviality of so many of life’s events, the pointlessness of petty resentments and much of our anger. The time is always now and there’s always a reason you need to trudge on, regardless of how hopeless things may seem. Thanks to all of you for your thoughts and prayers.

Raghee Horner believes that there’s huge profits to be made trading the energy sector. A lot is going on there. The U.S. will overtake Russia to become the world’s largest oil producer by 2023, accounting for most of the global growth in petroleum supplies, a top industry monitor said Monday. U.S. crude production is expected to reach a record of 12.1 million barrels a day in 2023, up about 2 million barrels a day from this year, said the International Energy Agency, which advises governments and corporations on industry trends. American oil output will surge past Russia, currently the world’s largest crude producer at about 11 million barrels a day. The IEA’s closely watched five-year forecast showed the U.S. hitting new strides in its oil and gas boom, helped by technological advances, improved efficiency and a fragile recovery in oil prices that is encouraging shale companies to ramp up their drilling. Once heavily dependent on imports from the Middle East, the U.S. is getting closer to achieving its goal of producing enough crude to meet domestic demand for refined products like gasoline. Of the 6.4 million new barrels of oil that will be pumped every day between now and 2023, almost 60% will come from the U.S., the IEA said. American influence on global oil markets is also expected to rise, with U.S. oil exports more than doubling to 4.9 million barrels a day by 2023, according to the IEA.

John LeBoutillier believes that a trade ware will endanger the economic recovery. A better move for these workers to do a big infrastructure program to put these rust belt residents back to work. What do we do to shut off that giant sucking sound of American jobs heading to Mexico? The tax bill will cost the Republicans some seats in the house come the mid-terms, however, it’s a real plus for the economy. Will steady wage increases be the result? Let’s wait and see.

Brad Williams returns… The Trump tax plan is already showing benefits. Companies are bringing jobs back to the US. This should result in higher productivity and therefore higher wages, which will no doubt lead to higher consumer prices. In fact, we’re already seeing that happen. Regulatory roll-back is well underway. Dodd-Frank will be receiving a long awaited overhaul, something both parties have agreed upon. The stock market is an open question and it remains to be seen where it will go in the next few years.

Lew Weiss is critical of the Trump trade tariffs on steel and aluminum. US trade policy needs a more considered and thought out approach. Prison labor cannot solve the problem. Rather, Lew believes that government policies that encourage American manufacturers to export are the answer. Exportation of products is often a daunting challenge for even the most experienced exporters such as Boeing. For a small company it’s often insurmountable. Bringing back tax favored status for exporters would be a real plus and an immediate shot in the arm.

Marc Morano says there’s plenty of polar bears and their number has actually been increasing. Marc is much more concerned by less freedom. More regulation. Higher costs. Make no mistake: those are the surefire consequences of the modern global warming campaign waged by political and cultural elites, who have long ago abandoned fact-based science for dramatic fearmongering in order to push increased central planning. The Politically Incorrect Guide to Climate Changegives a voice — backed by statistics, real-life stories, and incontrovertible evidence — to the millions of “deplorable” Americans skeptical about the multibillion dollar “climate change” complex, whose claims have time and time again been proven wrong.

According to Jordan Roy-Byrne, bond yields are the key. Gold has been going up with long term bond yields. As they’ve gone up, so has gold. Just like gold, long term bond yields are set to break out. All the requirements for a major metals advance are in place. It just requires a little time and a catalytic event. Maybe it’s a major increase in inflation, higher bond yields or any other number of factors. Then the move we’ve all been waiting for will take place.

John Rubino asks, are trade wars coming? Last week Trump announced tariffs on Steel and Aluminum which promptly sent the markets reeling. Today, he announced that the tariffs would remain in place until NAFTA is renegotiated. Can you spell Art of the Deal? Is it part of China’s attempt at world domination? Next, the Italian elections resulted in upheaval. The anti-immigration party got more votes than the incumbent party. If they’re able to create a government, it could mean Italy’s Brexit.

Jim Hiles is a Senior Partner of First Capital Advisors Group, LLC and First Capital Investment Partners, LLC. As with all laws, the new Tax Bill has unanticipated results, especially if you’re a Baby Boomer. Some of the money will go back to productive assets and investment. Boards will be under pressure to put cash to work to achieve a higher rate of return. Baby boomers who are retiring at the rate of 10k per day will be positively affected, if they’re invested in equities. The equities bull market will be prolonged. Since many Boomers will be living well into their 90’s, traditional investment planning has to change. That could very well mean taking more risks to achieve a higher return. But it will come at a cost.

Gerald Celente of The Trends Journal observes that interest rates are going up and this could mean that stocks, housing, and economies could be going down. Debt keeps going up and how much longer can the world continue on? The world cannot take higher rates. The party is ending. In February markets starting going down and it was attributed to rising wages. However, when we look behind the headlines we see that supervisory wages were up most and regular laborers saw smaller increases. Housing is taking a hit. Sales are down and inventories are at normal levels. Any decrease will immediately be affected in lower prices.
