President Obama was recently on CNN to talk about gun control and in this episode, several clips are played to point the many flaws in Obama’s arguments. More gun control laws won’t protect us against criminals that already break the law!  This is ridiculous!  All Obama will do is disarm law abiding citizens! Let’s be honest, gun free zones should be called kill zones!

So many people like to argue that we need the government to fund space travel because without the government, it wouldn't happen!  Well, this isn't reality because it's happening now!  Private companies are flying to space and in the very near future we will have commercial flights to outer space. Rocket launches by these private companies are actually tens of millions of dollars cheaper compared to a NASA launch!  And right now, private companies are planning on mining asteroids to extract rare earth metals. This is the beauty of capitalism at work and it doesn't cost the tax payers a dime.

The Federal Reserve has finally raised interest rates!  On December 16th, the Federal Funds was raised .25%. How high of interest rates can the U.S. economy take right now since we have been addicted to 0% interest rates for 7 years!  What does our economy look like in 2016? It's going to be an interesting year for the economy and I think more people soon realize how truly shaky the foundations to our economy really are.

Economics is really the study of human action and one thing that we do know is that individuals act!  We don't know why they act but we know they act as a means to pursue an end!  Liberals/Keynesian really go off the rails when they use studies and models to justify government action because of confusing correlation with causation! Economics is not a hard science and human behavior can't be modeled like Keynesian economists like to think!

Ben Bernanke recently was interviewed about the economy and he's completely clueless to what's going on out there!  Of course this is no surprise to many of us of the Austrian persuasion but it's revealing!  Justin plays a clip from Bernanke in 2005 where he doesn't see any problem with the housing market whatsoever! The same arguments he made then, he's making now!  Ben Bernanke makes these comments while we are on the doorstep of the largest financial crisis ever in the United States of America!  The sad reality is, most people are clueless just like Ben Bernanke.  All this and much more on this episode!
