by Kevin Strom, WB4AIO

WE LIVE IN A STRANGE country where you need to prove your identity and origin twenty times over to get a driver’s license — but not to be President; a country in which leaders and aspiring leaders fall all over themselves to promise to defend the eternal sanctity of Israel’s borders — but care not a whit for our own.

• The banks in Europe just created the largest amount of money in any one day in history, though they called it an “injection of liquidity.” Why is this momentous event not making headlines? Could an analysis of media ownership provide the answer? (9 minutes)
