What is the point of an education? Is it to prepare us for a career?
What is learning? And why learn?

But the DOW has returned 10.4% so far this year – which sounds great – until one notes that gold is up over 50%.

The dollar is having issues.

Rep. Thomas Massie: "The president has been saying this is a hoax…Well, he's just now decided to investigate a hoax...If they have ongoing investigations, those documents can't be released. So this might be a big smoke screen…to prevent the release of the Epstein files."

MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I think that's fair criticism. And I would like to say, humbly, I'm sorry for taking part in the toxic politics.
