Puerto Rico Pours On Tax Incentives For Investors [This is an older article, but Mohnish Pabrai mentioned at his annual meeting this weekend that he's setting up his insurance acquisition and investment vehicle, Dhandho Holdings, in Puerto Rico, largely because it will only have to pay 4% tax on investment income, so I thought it might be worth looking into.] (LINK)

Hussman Weekly Market Comment: The Ponzi Economy (LINK)
The central point is this. The U.S. economy has shifted course from one of productive capital accumulation to a reliance on continuous expansion of debt in excess of the economic ability to repay it. Call this the Ponzi Economy. 
The U.S. Ponzi Economy is one where domestic workers are underemployed and consume beyond their means; household and government debt make up the shortfall; corporate profits expand to a record share of GDP as revenues are sustained by household and government deficits; local employment is replaced by outsourced goods and labor; companies refrain from productive investment, accumulate the debt of other companies and issue new debt of their own, primarily to repurchase their own shares at escalating valuations; our trading partners (particularly China and Japan) become our largest creditors and accumulate trillions of dollars of claims that can effectively be traded for U.S. property and future output; Fed policy encourages the yield-seeking diversion of scarce savings toward speculation in risky securities; and as with every Ponzi scheme, everyone is happy as long as nobody seeks to be repaid.
