US-China: What could go wrong?

We hear a lot about China and the US.  We are told that China is stealing us blind or just taking all of our manufacturing jobs.  

What happens when one country buys billions of dollars in public bonds or literally makes just about everything that we can consume?  The answer is that we are vulnerable to that country.

My guess is that we've reached a point where a US president needs to sit down with China and reset the rules of the game.  Yes, we want free trade but that's not what we have now.

There are also national security implications when one country can exercise undue influence because they hold a lot of your debt.

It's time to reset the relationship.  We can start by making it more profitable for US companies to manufacture in the US and to attract more foreign investment into our economy.

We discussed the death of Cleopatra with Leslie Eastman and Barry Jacobsen.  

Of course, this is another anniversary of Elizabeth Taylor's role as Cleopatra in 1963.      Leslie has a link to a review of the movie.


I have not seen all of the Cleopatra movies but it's hard to top Elizabeth Taylor.

Camelot: Myth or reality with Leslie Eastman & Barry Jacobsen

We spoke with Barry Jacobsen and Leslie Eastman about the story of Camelot.  

This Leslie's post:

"In it, we will be comparing the Myth and Legend of Camelot to what is actually known about 5th and 6th century Britain via written and archeological records. Some of the topics to be covered.

  • Was there a King Arthur who ruled Britain?
  • Who exactly were the “Knights of the Round Table”?
  • Was there a Queen Guinevere, and if she existed, would she have been involved with Sir Lancelot?
  • Was Merlin real or fantasy?
  • How did Arthur die?"
