...herein lay the problem of most scholarships. A grant and scholarship exists to provide an education using a fixed amount of money. An education is an investment and so is a high school graduate. If we take a high school graduate, the money we put into his education, and the school he attends all as investment vehicles, then scholarships should be turned into college savings plans that pump an initial volume of funds into a portfolio that is guaranteed to bring a positive return...

Although we're all affected by oil prices, we as oil consumers don't set the prices. Herein lies the problem. The futures market that serves as a price discovery mechanism for the physical oil market is open only to the elite. We trust these elites to determine the prices, but who are they? Who are the so-called experts? Hedge funds, oil companies, OPEC - the very people...
