Interesting article albeit a bit dated at this point. The person makes a good argument that the rule of law doesn't apply to the powerful, and nothing has changed since then. As with any argument along these lines, inherent in that arg

Structurally there is a good deal of literature published by Mises and others on socialism, communism, feudalism, etc. They are very nearly identical when it comes to the important economic systems aspects involving the choices people make.

Of course, the cabal of globalists are all backed by the same people. Those people are the fiat inflationary money printer central bankers, following a policy interventionism which taken to its conclusion results in destruction. You gauge a

The article covers the relevant material, and is independently verifiable by people with a mind. The references support what is said, unlike other noise that clearly violates community guidelines in a number of different ways.

What people don't seem to realize is that the business cycle today mirrors your average ponzi scheme. The company has a product, gets loans based on said product. The terms are front-loaded according to your standard S-adoption curve w

No, there are plenty of complacent people out there that are willfully blind to the evil things they do. The real problem is the bankers, the ones who loaned him the money.

What is legality when the rule of law no longer applies and becomes only a rule by law. An imperfect system was corrupted, and no one did a thing to stop it (in aggregate). Mind you this didn't start with trump. It's been a long-r

Not news that globalists are dismantling the few roadblocks left so they can turn it into an empire. People have been calling this day for decades, while state-run media, a tyrant's best friend, labelled it fringe. You won't have

If business is unable to self-regulate, it is the job of government to step in and force them to correct. Unfortunately for us, government has largely failed in its official capacities and responsibilities, nearly all of them, and so things

There are people who write to help illuminate others. There are also people who use bots to write to raise the communication noise floor so no comprehension can occur. Its all about cost and intent.
