Happy Easter. I am at Michigan Avenue beach and headed to the Pancake House after. What are you up to today?

Ronald Coase, still publishing at 101. On his visits and perception of China.

This really sums up where I am on the food thing.

In case you didn’t see this yesterday, it’s worth a read. God bless the speculators.

Democrats deny parallel between Obama and Carter. Well, two differences. Obama successfully raided the Osama bin Laden compound and killed him (although taking him alive might have been interesting), and Obama has spent far more than Carter-really escalated the debt. Economically, we are in a malaise.

This guy thinks Obamacare will get struck down by the Supreme Court.

Bill Cosby says, “It’s the gun.” in the Trayvon Martin case. I cannot disagree with him. If Zimmerman didn’t have a gun, chances are he wouldn’t have done what he did. The gun empowered him. But, we aren’t banning guns anytime soon.

Glad Goldman ($GS) put out a “buy ‘em” call ahead of last week.

High Seas combat. Good thing they have guns.

A different view of spring training.

Counterfeiting.

If you don’t know about dark pools, you should.
