Top Episodes Quotes
- “But the other thing I want to say is the Supreme Court on Friday striking down the so called Chevron ruling, which was essentially a legal statute passed in the eighties that allowed regulatory agencies to have a lot of leeway where Congress wasn't very clear.“ by David L. Bahnsen
- “Really strong results in midstream energy, basically two and a half percent on the week last week. And just interestingly, MLP's are up eleven of the last 13 junes, the month of June. But the total midstream sector is only up eight of the last 13 because Canadians have had a tougher time, but they are now up eight quarters in a row.“ by David L. Bahnsen
- “The against doomsdayism law number six and the seven laws of pessimism, the law of self effacing solutions. One of my favorites, that once a solution has been achieved, people forget about the original problem, only see the further problems and what that kind of means is that there's a bad problem, something comes in and fixes it, but the thing that comes in has some problems around it too, and people will focus on the problems that were created, nothing, recognizing that they were much less than the problems that had been fixed than the prior problems.“ by David L. Bahnsen
