As anyone will tell, economics is a multifaceted, highly volatile, dynamic topic with more moving parts and components than Carter has liver pills, but I have done the best I could here, in my own layman terms, to deliver a fairly comprehensive overview of the entire American economy and what it and its manipulators are doing to the country on the whole and the American people in the end.
Life imitates art. Most of America’s so-called “role models” are immoral, and America’s society has become immoral on the whole, too. Outside of the severely flawed modern Christian churches, every organ on American culture, for whatever passes as “American culture” today, pushes materialism, self-aggrandizement and living for the moment, in the theme of the 1960s slogan “if it feels good do it“.
Many things have come together in an effort to kill the American Dream, intentionally or not, from executive greed, e.g. multi-million dollar CEO bonuses, and consolidation of wealth that stagnates wages for the rest of the workers participating in the jobs markets. Continue reading
I have to admit that I am feeling pretty frustrated today. Last week, there was so much optimism that we could finally see peace, but now “war fever” has returned with a vengeance.
In the age of Trump, even the most boring of political positions can find themselves in the center of the political news cycle. In recent weeks, it has been the Bureau of Labor Statistics. After severe revisions to previous job reports, Trump fired BLS Commissioner Erika McEntarfer and has nominated E.J. Antoni, who – if nothing else – has claimed to be a fan of Murray Rothbard.
Welcome to Alligator Alcatraz – the detention center in the middle of the swampy Everglades, surrounded by razor wire, armed guards, and actual alligators.
I am an empath, and at more times in my life it has caused me much of my own grief – it’s the reason I feel so deeply saddened by everything I see across America that is working to destroy Her, especially as I look at the images of a sea of American faces and the despair we now see in the eyes of far too many, for all the reasons you are all too well familiar and understand.
Most people accept the moral prohibitions on lying, murdering, and stealing in their personal lives as well as in their business affairs. Why, then, does government – which is run by people – get a pass? Is ethics irrelevant in government affairs?
President Donald J. Trump did something this week that no other modern American president has been able to do when it comes to foreign entanglements: he proved you can keep your promises and keep America safe — all while telling the world’s worst actors exactly where they can stick their aggression.
Americans don’t want socialists running their cities or inexperienced, foul-mouthed thugs like AOC and Crockett dictating how to run their lives. The Democratic Party is short on class and money, but more importantly, short on solutions!
It might sound like something straight out of science fiction, but AI experts warn that machines might not stay submissive to humanity for long.
A new study has revealed that ChatGPT will provide detailed instructions to teenagers on dangerous activities, including getting drunk, concealing eating disorders, and even writing suicide letters to parents when asked. The research was conducted by the Center for Countering Digital Hate, which had researchers pose as vulnerable teens to test the AI chatbot’s responses.
Once upon a time, many moons ago, I was asked to teach a course to new analysts on Wall Street. The large amount of material to cover and the limited amount of time allotted during their 30-day training period were absurd. But what was even more absurd was that there was no cell phone ban.
Let’s not mince words: every American should be alarmed by President Trump’s “Liberation Day” tactics, theatrics and threats.
McLaughlin Poll: 77% Oppose Amnesty; 56%: Deport Every Illegal
The increasing encroachment of government regulations, pontificating politicians, and the enforcement of Social Justice schemes have led to a loss of understanding of the terms private property and property rights.
