Say’s Law Of Markets Writes The Code Of Moral Justice For We The Living.

The death premise of Marxism - life is chaos and people are impotent. They demand submission to the collective. Last week in 2020 America, you were exposed to their chaos in Kenosha WI and Portland OR, and the impotence of police departments who were ordered to stand down in submission to the cancel culture of today's organized, violent, Marxist mobs.

Consensus Is An Outmoded Top-Down Concept. Social Media Enables Spontaneous Order To Emerge From The Competition Of Ideas.

We think of social media with its inescapable cacophony as a force dividing us. But the problem is our assumption that “united” means “doing and thinking the same thing.” Ironically, exactly this networked technology enables us to think and do different things while remaining connected rather than isolated, and therefore, be greater than the sum of our parts.

Due To Their Systematic Decision-Making Failure, Politicians Are Never To Be Trusted With Taxpayer Money.

No matter what kind of crisis hits, government officials only have a few tools in their toolbox. These tools are spending money, printing money, bailing out companies, restricting freedom, and otherwise expanding government’s powers.

Economics For Individuals:Let’s Talk Time Preference, Democracy And The Decline Through Which We Are Currently Living.

This trend of decivilization is inevitable in a democracy. When unproductive people, such as politicians and government employees, can aspire to powerful roles in a government that has a legitimate monopoly on the transference of income and wealth to reward and reinforce non-productivity, they will seize the opportunity it represents and exploit it to the fullest.

Bait-&-Switch: How They’ve Changed The COVID Conversation.

Everywhere the language is changing. “The New Normal” was about beating Covid19, but now it’s about “covid19 and future pandemics”, or the “other colossal challenges facing humanity”….which can mean literally anything they want it to mean. All this is based on the ever-increasing number of cases, without any reference to the fact deaths are falling.

Politicized “Stakeholder Capitalism” Threatens American Prosperity.
