This Post Is Title-less


Well, I guess not anymore.

Let's talk about the economy.

Wait - did you just zone out or start to skim? STOP! This is important. Why don't Americans understand the economy? Why did we all just get caught with our pants pulled down when the rug was pulled out from underneath our magically appreciating homes? Will it happen again? What's next?

Let's face it - you don't understand the economy. And neither do I. We are part of it. In it - like a whirlwind and grasping on to (and trying to hold) anything we can.

Let's start here, together. We can do this.

I finished this book and give it 100 stars. Peter Schiff is a genius. He speaks plain and simple truths. He got laughed at by everyone who's anyone for the years preceding the housing crisis. Now he looks like the only guy (to me) who has any kind of common sense. Next book on my list: End the Fed - Ron Paul.

Bottom-line of the book: Our centrally planned economy has slowly become almost totally controlled by Washington (duh), and this is bad. What does this mean for you and me? Well, I don't want to spoil the end!

Stonyfield is my new favorite company. While I am teetering on the edge of wanting to abandon dairy products all together - they have helped me keep my sanity in this great time of transition. Apart from my years of drinking this instead of milk:


I have now switched to organic yogurt and ice cream. It tastes 100000% better. This is true most definitely for the yogurt. Especially SOY yogurt. It still has dairy. But less - and it's organic. Yum. Double the price - but double the satisfaction - easily.
