I have always sort of distrusted Jim Rodgers because he has been a business partner with George Soros, but he has had some great insights speaking out against the bailouts. He doesn’t seem like a lefty to me.
He is also right a great deal of the time, and on the other side of the gaggle of fools, charlatans. thieves, liars and idiots who form the financial/political power base in our culture...., but that is a redundancy, isn't it?
