About:

An Alberta based blog written by an Economist who has lived all over the province. I am an Information Maven, and I try to provide Albertans with information they won't find in their mainstream media. You might not believe it, but there are thousands of stories you will never learn of if you stick to reading your local MSM rag. I am generally apolitical, but am partial to the Green Libertarianism of Henry David Thoreau. I am also responsible for Alberta Blogs, a collection of bloggers united by nothing more than their love of Alberta. I live in Calgary, you can reach me at: aaron.braaten [at] gmail.com, and I'm on Twitter @abraaten.

Iran & The Guns of August

I’ve been reading up on Iran tonight, and amongst the mess and the rhetoric, it appears that it’s all chatter. I’m betting that the DebkaFile argument for secret talks is the likely scenario, and that the headlines regarding missile tests, sanctions and resolutions are simply distractions. Happy reading.
