Many brilliant companies – from Apple to Starbucks – have been founded in the United States, starting out as small ventures to become international leaders in their fields. However, the world of business isn’t always as straightforward as it looks. Regardless of how well-rooted a company’s American history is, it doesn’t mean that it will always belong to Uncle Sam. In fact, many quintessentially American brands are no longer American-owned at all. From Ben and Jerry’s to IBM and Holiday Inn, overseas investors have played a big part in keeping these companies moving forward. Without them stepping in, some of...

Why don't you just STHU regarding your pathetic attacks on conservatives, Barry? You are a maggot, a bottom feeding scum, who has not one ounce of true patriotism running through whatever those are masquerading as blood veins in your body. You are an effeminate metro-sexual wimp and wuss, who can only scheme of ways to stick daggers in the backs of real Americans who are your betters or try to find other weasily, mealy mouthed ways to bring them down. You’re neither black nor white and you certainly are not American. You stand for and support everything that is the...

Just a few minutes ago our jib operator Justin came up to me. He said, ‘Glenn, out of all of the things you’ve covered in your life where does this fit in importance?

Maybe number 2. And possibly number one in importance. Number one, is clearly...

I frankly am amazed to find out today that Miller is paying for pro-illegal-alien marchers to protest at the offices of U.S. Speaker of the House Hastert because he has blocked the Senate's amnesty all summer. If you are spending a few minutes on your computer over this holiday weekend, please go...

The United States must borrow more than $2 billion per day from foreigners to finance its huge trade deficits. In 2005, for example, there was a record deficit of $805 billion in the current account, the broadest measure of trade. Foreigners sell their televisions, cars and oil to Americans and hold dollars in return. Those dollars are invested in stocks, bonds and other assets, including real estate and factories. Foreigners already own half of the U.S. government's publicly traded debt. As of January, some $2.19 trillion in Treasury securities were in the hands of central banks, including China and Japan,...
