R.I.P. US Rule of Law
July 11, 2016 By: Bobby Casey, Managing Director GWP Over the course of several years, I’ve watched as the US government and its lower tiers summarily wipe their proverbial asses with the rule of law.

Is Italy Indicative of EU Economic Policy to Come?
July 5, 2016 By: Bobby Casey, Managing Director GWP Brexit was a great economic and political decision for the UK. I stand by that.

Does Political Class Want Economic Calamity?
June 6, 2016 By: Bobby Casey, Managing Director GWP There’s a reason why I’ve opted out of US politics. It’s entirely predicated on scapegoating. Blame the democrats, blame the republicans, blame racism, blame sexism, blame the previous administration, blame the rich, or blame the immigrants. Always finger-pointing, but never solving anything.
