Pharmacide; Killing Us Softly
To many, scientific lingo is as indecipherable as hieroglyphics, not to mention all the confusing opinions of experts, drug salesmen, supplement salesmen and a corrupted phalanx of government “protective” agencies/protecting the bottom lines of the healthcare monopoly.
Who could trust anything after evil Golem Fauci’s weaponized flu and fraudulent vaxxxines killed millions. He has been shaking down congress every few years for decades just to fund phony drug solutions for “pandemics” like swine ...
Whatever Happened to Baby Trumpenstein?
Just over a month ago, on July 13, shots were fired at Donald Trump during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. He was struck in the ear, by a bullet, or ricochet fragment, and rose up triumphantly with blood on his face, in that iconic Iwo Jima-style photo. Taken by the same guy who caught Andrew Card whispering to Dubya on 9/11.
Now that’s a pretty incredible story. First assassination attempt on an American political figure in over forty years. The seventy eight year old target bounces up, pumps ...
What Has the Fed Done to Our Lives?
The following is derived from a speech in my novel, The Flight of the Barbarous Relic
Wars must be funded, and for this governments functioning as states call upon the banking system for assistance.
Central Bank counterfeiting, which is another name for inflation, is the fuel that energizes the forces of war. Inflation, or counterfeiting, amounts to issuing receipts for something that doesn’t exist, which legally is the prerogative of the central bank. Calling such receipts money allows them t...

Essay Introduction
As early as 1891, Pope Leo XIII in his encyclical Rerum Novarum asserted the need for a new i...
Hey, Fed, More Cowbell!
Here is the result of the Fed’s misbegotten pro-inflation policy since it officially adopted its 2.00% target in January 2012. According to our trusty 16% trimmed mean CPI, the price level is up by 41% since then, and was still rising at a 3.31% annual rate in July, as per this week’s CPI release.
Accordingly, given that any dollar earned or saved in 2012 is worth just 70 cents today, the question recurs: Why in the world should the Fed even be thinking of opening up the money spigot and thereb...
Why We Need Revisionist History
The term “revisionism” came into use after World War I, when historians like Harry Elmer Barnes, Sidney Bradshaw Fay, and Charles Austin Beard challenged Article 231 of the Treaty of Versailles, which assigned exclusive guilt to Germany and its Kaiser for the outbreak of the world war, with all its appalling destruction and massacres, It was on the basis of that clause that the Treaty imposed on Germany a Carthaginian peace, memorably condemned by J.M. Keynes in The Economic Consequences of the ...

The Super-Wealthy Have a Problem
The less self-congratulatory camp of the super-wealthy understand the pressure cooker of inequality and unfairness is going to blow unless they relinquish some of their unearned gains generated by Fed policies.
The cultural consensus holds that the super-wealthy always manage to come out ahead in any spot of bother. Due to their grip on the levers of financial and political power, whatever lays waste to the bottom 90% of the populace is either 1) an opportunity to increase their wealth or 2) a m...
The No Prisoners, End of the Road Election
“It’s all projection of their own bad desires, bad actions, personal afflictions to the point where the best way to tell what they plan to do is to see what they accuse others of.” — El Gato Malo on Democrats
It’s fun to muse on the torrent of panicked, deranged texting between Democratic Convention delegates as a runaway train of malignant fates, bad choices, insane policies, delusional ideas, and feral emotion drives them to nominate a moron for president. The confusion and self-doubt must be ...
Reality and Incompetence: The Elites’ Achilles Heels
Last week, as the world Elites sought to fixate the public’s gaze on the escalations geopolitically and militarily in Eastern Europe and Southwest Asia, a rather important development politically took place on Western Europe’s Iberian peninsula. A situation unfolded which might only have been thought possible in a Jason Bourne film. A fugitive on the run from a corrupt government apparatus makes an appearance in a politically fraught situation, turns the tables on his pursuers, and then vanishes...
