My Land of Lakes, Sweet Land of Liberty
Just the other day Land of Lakes butter decided to rescind support for Representative Steve King of Iowa. I suppose they think he is some sort of racist or bigot. Well, maybe he is. I don’t know. He sure sounds extreme. There are many, many of his views I disagree with. My question is this: Why does Land of…

The Bond Scam
What would happen if we got rid of the bond market I’ve been looking at the bond market for over 35 years, and it’s as confusing today as it was 35 years ago. It shouldn’t be confusing for a bond is just a loan. Yet economists have gobbledygooked bonds into a state of incomprehensibility. They…

“Experts”
If you are the federal government, you need to sell your bullshit. To sell bullshit you need seemingly credible people. Thus academia. Nothing sells like a professor with a bunch of fancy titles. The media loves these guys. They get instant access. You’ve heard them be introduced. So and so is Associate Professor of Government…

America and Myths
America is a land of myths. We love our myths. We have Paul Bunyan; we have Rip Van Winkle. And we have George Washington about whom many lies and myths have been told.

The Phony Wars in the Middle East

They agree to this lie so as to make themselves more necessary and relevant to their respective peoples. “See here,” they…

Sorry Charlie, your health will come second. Of course, the NWO didn’t move in yesterday; they’ve been at it…

Prizes to Control You
Why are prizes a bad idea? Since they seem like a good idea, why aren’t they? Prizes in this day and age are given out by the King, and as such the King expects thanks and gratitude for bestowing the prize. Refusal to do so or out right condemnation of the King’s policy invites reprisal.…

French Fries and the Wharton School: The Story of Empire
I like watching YouTube videos about how things are made. My restless mind is soothed by watching hi-tech machines churn out billions of french fries. I especially love the part where a computer-guided air gun blows imperfect fries off the line at jet speeds. How can any small-timer compete, I ask myself. This is it,…

The Beauty of Globalism
Why doesn’t globalism work, and why do globalists not desire a unified world? Globalism as currently envisioned by the corporatists does not work because it is inefficient and exploitative. An efficient economy would within reason manufacture 80% of a nation’s goods there in that country. An efficient economy provides the maximum meaningful productivity for its…
