The US government is finally allowing some foreigners to participate in cleaning up the oil spill.  That’s good, but they should have done that 70 days ago, and 18 countries and organizations organizations have still been rejected.  Hopefully soon there’ll be word on why.

Venezuela is looting nationalizing 11 oil rigs owned by Americans.  Naturally, of course, this state theft won’t be satisfactory for Chavez, and he’ll continue to condemn the capitalism which he is plundering for the poverty of the Venezuelan people.

The city of New York is considering banning renting out of homes for less than a month.  It’s a state monopoly being granted to the hotels at the expense of anyone who would be willing to take in tourists, and at the expense of the tourists themselves.  As it becomes more expensive to visit New York, the number of tourists will of course decline, and the hotels win at everyone else’s expense.
