William Mount, "Holiday Sales Collapse - Massive Layoffs Coming Soon"
Are on-the-job "apprenticeships" an alternative to higher education?
I was interested to learn that the Mayor of Birmingham, Alabama has been investigating whether German-style "apprenticeships" might be a viable alternative to college education for the young people of his city. Mayors and governors of both parties tout German-style apprenticeships as an alternative pathway to employment, in the face of ballooning college tuition and the need for career options for noncollege graduates. * . . .* Fascination with Germany’s apprenticeship model comes at a time when Germany itself is showing signs of fatigue with its own system and adopting a more-Ame... more »

Wilson & Blackett - Trojan War - 638 BC...
...and why should we care? Modern archaeology still asserts that the Trojan War (if it happened at all) took place around 1300-1200 BC, then a mysterious 500-year Dark Ages fell upon Europe where no-one died and no-one was born and nothing was built or commissioned. If we eradicate these imaginary Europe-wide 'dark ages' and just cram the recorded dates back together, we have a date of 638 BC for the Trojan War. The COELBREN ALPHABET (above) potentially charts the migration of Brutus of Troy and the people who survived the Trojan War as they move through the mediterranean, up int... more »

China: You Will Wear Big Brother
If nothing else, China is constantly providing new responses to the comment, "Well, there's no way anybody could actually do *that."* What happens when the business mindset comes up against a powerful profit motive?

Election Fraud Investigation
I am writing this on Saturday 29, 2018. I plan to release this on the first. Why this matters is that I suspect that the military has been carrying out extensive arrests under full military secrecy. Not least, POTUS remains in the White house or attached to his Comms. This podcast informs us that Chinese interests have funded the Caravan and that this has triggered massive reinsurance and the application of FISA warrants all tracking back to parallel internal funding and bad actors. At the same time we discover that the primary Mil Intel operation has been aimed at the whole ... more »
Dr. Rebecca Brown Masters the Politics of Poverty
[image: with emma] What makes me annoyed is that actually ending poverty on a global basis is trivial and will prove to be easily accomplished. The process is also subtle which is why it has not been accomplished. I am probably the only person with the correct economic skill sets to set out on this path Way more important is that if the bottom third of our global population becomes naturally prosperous, the remaining global economy will expand several fold while retaining price stability. And it will simply not matter who is rich. To get there we ultimately need to engage around... more »
Almost 500 Years Later, Scientists Confirm What Killed The Aztecs
In the end, the Europeans did not even know that the disease even existed. Now we need to understand something here. This disease ripped through all of south America and north America.

The Americas today hold around one billion people. Thus it is completely reasonable to posit an original population of around 100,000,000.
