Gene Morphis ' View. Monday, November 11, 2013. President Obama's TVA Proposal. Fortune Magazine recently ran an article on the TVA (“Uncle Sam’s River”, Oct, 28. As a native Tennessean, I read the article with great interest. In the President’s most recent budget proposal, TVA apparently was put on the disposition block. Probably the vast majority of Americans have no idea that they own a utility company, or that it borrows with government-backed debt. I propose that we Americanize TVA:. First, I wish S...

Gene Morphis ' View. Wednesday, October 23, 2013. Government Shutdown, EPA. NBC has been shadowing a couple of EPA workers who were laid-off during the government shutdown to discover the impact it is having on their household budgets and spending plans. I wish NBC would spend some time in coal country to see what affect the EPA's open war on the coal industry has had on those working families. As long as the EPA operates unconstrained, those jobs are never coming back. Government Spending and Pop Culture.

Gene Morphis ' View. Tuesday, June 10, 2014. You Are 52 And Worried About Keeping Your/Looking for a Job. I was re-reading a business book that was published in 1991.

Gene Morphis ' View. Tuesday, July 30, 2013. My ninety year old mother-in-law lives with us. She is generally in good health, and her memory and mind are good. However, the scam mails showing up in our mailbox are increasingly sophisticated, and she frequently falls for them. The letters are worded to convince the reader that Congress is on the verge of gutting (Medicare; Social Security; or some other program). And that the reader must send money immediately, immediately-. Just about every day she recei...

Gene Morphis ' View. Sunday, December 15, 2013. Are Younger Employees Really an Asset to Health Plans? We’ve been bombarded by news lately, proclaiming that The Affordable Health Care Act can only be successful if vast numbers of young adults join the plans. And news that many, if not most, young adults have little or no interest in participating has also made headlines. Further, there are reports that a substantial numbers of young adults don’t even know about it. How does one know it is correct? While ...

Gene Morphis ' View. Monday, September 16, 2013. High-level Financial Comparison of Wal-Mart ( WMT ) and Amazon (AMZN ). Let’s begin with full disclosure: I own $WMT. I don’t own $AMZN. I shop both regularly, particularly the Sam’s Club division of $WMT for numerous products, and principally books and music from $AMZN. I’m a loyal customer of each. As an investor however, the Amazon valuation continues to baffle me. 27% vs. 23.1%. And the rate of growth is indeed impressive at almost 10X Wal-Mart’s.
