An Idolatrous Nation Celebrates “Freedom” Even Though They are Slaves to the Pharmaceutical Cult
Francis Scott Key penned the words to the song “The Star-Spangled Banner” in the 1800s that would go on to become the “National Anthem” of the United States, and it ends with the words: "The land of the free, and the home of the brave." I am not sure these words have ever been a true description of life in the United States, but today, here in 2022, those words should read: "The land of the slaves, and the home of the cowards." I never thought I would live to see the day where most Americans would willingly choose slavery over freedom, and then when their choices did not work out... read more

The “two negative quarters” myth
As I get older, I become increasingly frustrated with having to repeatedly push back against widely held myths. One of those myths is that a recession occurs when there are two consecutive negative quarters for real GDP growth. That’s not how the NBER determines recessions. (One obvious example is 2001, which saw a recession but […] The post The “two negative quarters” myth appeared first on Econlib. read more

"A Nation of Sheep, Ruled By Wolves, Owned By Pigs: Americans Have Tamely Surrendered Their Liberties"
*"A Nation of Sheep, Ruled By Wolves, Owned By Pigs:* *Americans Have Tamely Surrendered Their Liberties"* by Gen Z Conservative "Americans, by and large, have not kept themselves informed, and adhered to the limits the Constitution imposes upon our government, which has resulted in more than half the problems we face today as a country, a nation of sheep. And, because the voters themselves do not know, or care, what the Constitution says, they elect candidates who have no intention, or desire, to support and defend it — believing in “the end justifies the means”. It is a vicious cy... read more

“ The artist and the entrepreneur, so often pitted against each other, are in fact on the same side.”
Pic by* Financial Times* *“Artists and entrepreneurs are blessed with similar convictions. Both are innovators. They see possibilities where others see limitations, bringing the previously unimagined into being. Both have skin in the game, living in the theatre of risk, performing on the public stage of jeopardy. Failure can be brutal and success is often a prelude to future disappointment but they are driven ever-forward by self-expression; it’s in the DNA of these independent, slightly unreasonable, regularly difficult people. Cussed mindsets have no alternative. Both the art... read more

When Donald Trump spoke to the Catholic Bishops
I missed this story in April 2020. As you'll recall, the white liberal church threw itself into the George Floyd tragedy a month later, eager to move the blame to Trump and all white people for the failings of the Minneapolis Democrat run city and police department. To do this, Democrats/liberals/progressives/socialists had to lionize an ex-con who really hadn't contributed in a positive way to black culture until BLM took up the banner. Anyway, President Donald Trump identified himself as the “best [president] in the history of the Catholic Church” in a conference call for Catholic... read more

The Supreme Court has effectively authorized schoolteachers to pressure their students to pray
*Kennedy v. Bremerton* held that football coach Joseph Kennedy had the right to engage in what Justice Neil Gorsuch called a “short, private, personal prayer” on the 50 yard line after games. The Court held that forbidding that prayer improperly discriminated on the basis of religion, because employees were allowed to do other personal things with their free time after games. There was no “record evidence that students felt pressured to participate in these prayers” and no evidence that the prayers disrupted the school. The actual facts are very different.

For ecosocialist degrowth
Degrowth and ecosocialism are two of the most important movements—and proposals—on the radical side of the ecological spectrum. Sure, not everyone in the degrowth community identifies as a socialist, and not everyone who is an ecosocialist is convinced by the desirability of degrowth. But one can see an increasing tendency of mutual respect and convergence. Let us try to map the large areas of agreement between us, and list some of the main arguments for an ecosocialist degrowth read more
