I am working feverishly on a piece about "The Crime of '73," but it isn't finished yet. That's 1873, not 1973. So We must continue examining the frightening symptoms we now see, and what they can result in, probably in the not too distant future.

As the FED continues to slowly raise interest rates quarter point by quarter point, the financial environment may seem to be changing very little, but in reality it is becoming increasingly at risk from financial tornadoes; A tornado is a storm tha
