Wer die Geschichte nicht kennt, wiederholt ihre Fehler. Wer sie kennt, muss zusehen, wie die anderen [jene, die die Geschichte nicht kennen] die Fehler von Früher wiederholen. Es ist kaum auszuhalten. Täglich werden die vom Mainstream-abhängigen Leute mit Lügen, einseitigen Narrativen, unvollständigen Berichten und salbenden Worten in einer Blase der Wirklichkeit gehüllt, wie sie schon Truman Burbank in “The Truman Show” vorgesetzt wurde. Ich werde ein paar Fragen...

The events of the last few years have resurrected a recurring worry among people mindful of their liberty, property, and personal dignity. This worry centers around the prospects of the emergence of the notorious “new world order,” a worldwide totalitarian plot hatched by globalist “elites” intent on destroying the surviving remains of free speech, free enterprise, and free thought. Before asking how justified such worries are, let us note that the “new world order”...

The coin which helped win the gold vs bitcoin debate at the Soho Forum Photo credit: the author It’s pretty, isn’t it? Gold, Liquid Gold, and Inflation Gold has a unique appearance. It is also astonishingly heavy—much heavier than it has any right to be. It’s just an inch and a quarter in diameter yet weighs 0.075 pounds. Everyone should hold one in his hand (and own a few).

So what are conventional pundits missing today? I would start with three dynamics. Only old people experienced real recessions–those in 1973-74 and 1980-82. Recessions since then have been shorter and less systemic. In the good old days, a recession laid waste to entire industries which never recovered their previous employment. People who were laid off couldn’t find another job. Major sectors of the economy dried up and blew away. Jobs were scarce and there was an...

The income tax, however, gave the government the keys to every door and the sole right to change the locks. Today the American people are no longer the master and the government has ceased to be the servant. How could this be? The Revolution fought in the name of the inherent natural rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of...
