Why Is The U.S. Dollar Rising Against The Euro?

Who is the Real Barack Obama?
Peter Schiff | 11 January 2012For most of his time as a national political figure, Barack Obama has been careful to cloak his core socialist leanings behind a veil of pro-capitalist rhetoric. This makes strategic sense, as Americans still largely identify as pro-capitalist.

Peter Schiff | 16 September 2011The truth of course is that no real economic growth or job creation is going to occur until the failed policies of both Obama and Bush are reversed.
President Obama: Job Killer in Chief
Peter Schiff | 2 September 2011While President Obama prepares to unveil a new plan for the Federal Government to create jobs, evidence is rapidly piling up on how his Administration is actively destroying jobs with stunning efficiency.
The Fix Is In: Ultra-Low Interest Rates
Peter Schiff | 12 August 2011Low rates are the root cause of the misallocation of resources that define the modern American economy. As a direct result, Americans borrow, consume, and speculate too much, while we save, produce, and invest too little.
