- It took a lot of chutzpah for Pres. Obama to double the national debt, then in his #SOTU address take credit for having reduced the deficit!
- SRSrocco put together a graph tracking production for the top-four gold producers. You will note a pretty consistent downward trend. If these forecasts hold, we are looking at a 23% drop in output over less than a decade. http://bit.ly/2I5FJVb http://bit.ly/2D3w91e

Socialism Book Recommendation?
I'm trying to research the empirical history of socialism from the 1700s to present day and am looking for a fact driven track record of how it has performed. Does anybody know of a good book? From many books, I've collected examples from different countries at different times, but the data isn't uniform. The ideal book would have a long list of countries that give economic data before and after socialist programs are enacted.
