Politics, The Economy, and More: February 2014
http://politicalhicken.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Politics, The Economy, and More. Articles written by Matt Hicken. Tuesday, February 18, 2014. 2014 Outlook and a Soapbox Rant. While I don’t believe in crystal balls, I again have a list of areas I believe should be at the top of our watch list for the year. Some of them the media will do a fine job of keeping in front of us on a constant basis, others I will watch and try to keep you updated in my commentaries throughout the year. Margin, Earnings, and Bears…Oh my! I read an article from Stratfor today ...

Politics, The Economy, and More: May 2010
http://politicalhicken.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Politics, The Economy, and More. Articles written by Matt Hicken. Tuesday, May 25, 2010. I think that most believe in financial reform. As to how to do it apparently is all befudled (using a term in the below article) in Washington. I thought this article was by far the best description of our system, how the crisis was created in the system and how the system should be reformed in order to prevent and help manage future crisis. I promised Harry that I would send him one personally. And I'm quite sur...

Politics, The Economy, and More: June 2010
http://politicalhicken.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Politics, The Economy, and More. Articles written by Matt Hicken. Wednesday, June 30, 2010. I am currently reading a biography of Abraham Lincoln. It has definitely changed my perception of him. Not for better or worse, just different. I still respect and look at him as a great president, but now I know more of the reasons why he was. Let me know (without doing internet searches) if you know who gave this speech. I am going to talk of controversial things. I make no apology for this. Public servants say,...

Politics, The Economy, and More: March 2010
http://politicalhicken.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Politics, The Economy, and More. Articles written by Matt Hicken. Monday, March 1, 2010. Here is one from Brian Wesbury. Here is a little disclaimer: I don't blame the federal workers 100% for their high wages. Everyone always wants a raise and everyone will always ask for a raise. It takes an understanding from both the employer and the employees as when those raises make sense and when they don't. As to whether or not they are ultimately paid out, however, is entirely up to the employer.

Working for the common good. We can “improve” our community like bulls in a china shop, barreling over a dozen good things to accomplish one mediocre thing. Or we can serve in a mindful fashion, with kindness, healing, innovation etc. as our goals rather than completing a project. Reading, listening, and keeping an open mind can help us work for the common good of Richmond the latter way. 8211; Don Flow’s business panel, November 2014. 8211; From Common Good RVA 2013:.

Politics, The Economy, and More: May 2011
http://politicalhicken.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Politics, The Economy, and More. Articles written by Matt Hicken. Thursday, May 12, 2011. A Couple of Debt Thoughts. I thought this was a really good point made by John Mauldin [who, as a side note, is from Texas and a Republican]. Do not sell the concept that voting Republican will provide a quick fix. It will get you slaughtered in 2014.". I also thought, given all the problems going on economically worldwide, that the following link to an article by Diane Swonk of Mesirow Financial is a great, down to...
