Obama’s Phony Free Trade Treaty That He Won’t Let Congress See
My cousin has been asking me if I’m up to speed on the dangers of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). I explained to him that Paul Krugman had just declared that the TPP was no big deal, so I assumed it must be awful, but no–I didn’t really know much about it. After reading some of […] READ MORE Last Week’s Mortgage Applications Were at a 13-Year Low A large number of Americans have decided not to borrow to buy a home. Last week, applications fell 6.3%.
