This will be my final post reviewing the compilation of Murray Rothbard’s essays for the Rothbard-Rockwell Report, entitled “The Irrepressible Rothbard.”  This has been both an entertaining and enlightening read; further, it has provided a walk down memory lane – the national politics of the early 1990s. Max Lerner I begin with Rothbard’s examination of Max Lerner and his advice, described by Lerner as “the fusion of Wilsonian idealist ends with realistic Hamiltonian means.”  This advice is offered within the context of the disintegrating Soviet Union: And what does this fusion entail?  First, “heroic alliance measures” (English translation: massive subsidy … Continue reading →

“We’ve reached the point where state actors can penetrate rectums and vaginas, where judges can order forced catheterizations, and where police and medical personnel can perform scans, enemas and colonoscopies without the suspect’s consent. And these procedures aren’t to nab kingpins or cartels, but people who at worst are hiding an amount of drugs that can fit into a body cavity. In most of these cases, they were suspected only of possession or ingestion. Many of them were innocent… But these tactics aren’t about getting drugs off the street… These tactics are instead about degrading and humiliating a class of … Continue reading →

I have a master’s degree in U.S. History and I have taught History and Government for the past six years at a small college in Iowa. I am well-qualified to judge this book, which seems to have drawn polar opposite reviews from people; It doesn’t take long to figure out that the reviews are politically-driven. Those readers who consider themselves liberal will hate this book because it skewers many left-wing sacred cows. However, Woods also takes many conservative icons to the woodshed as well, including Abe Lincoln and Ronald Reagan. Those reviewers who say that Woods has written a one-sided … Continue reading →

Last week Trump supporters and leftist social justice warriors met on the political field of battle in Berkeley, California. Words were exchanged, as were punches. And while an alt-right leader was punched in the face, by all accounts even the social justice warriors admit that they got a major beat-down. This prompted a reddit discussion among the left’s tolerant resistance movement, with many asking how they can more effectively go to war against anyone who disagrees with their social, political, and economic views. The anti-Trump protesters at the rally were ill-prepared for what they came to Berkeley to confront and now … Continue reading →

Privacy advocates were aghast when President Trump signed a bill on April 3 that overturned restrictions on data sharing by internet service providers (ISPs). But to paraphrase Shakespeare, methinks they protest too much. The fact is, unless you take precautions, you already have exactly zero privacy online. Your online data is there for the taking by the likes of Google, Facebook… and the NSA (National Security Agency). And thanks to the new law, by ISPs such as Verizon and AT&T as well. The rules Congress overturned were passed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) last fall. They would have required … Continue reading →

“Procrastination is like a credit card: It’s a lot of fun until you get the bill.” – Christopher Parker Did you know that the Dalai Lama was known as one of the world’s greatest procrastinators? As a student, he was used to delaying everything until the last minute. Should that make us feel better about procrastinating? No. If you think about it, he was doing anything but wasting time. If you look at the other people on the list of famous procrastinators, you’ll notice other big names, including Leonardo da Vinci and Victor Hugo. From this point in time, it doesn’t … Continue reading →

The public has heard of the Cuban missile crisis in October 1962. The USA and the USSR came close to nuclear war. Twenty-one years later it happened again. Twice. On September 1, 1983, Korean Airlines flight 007 disappeared over Soviet air space. The official report on both sides of the Iron Curtain was that a Soviet fighter had shot it down. On board was Congressman Larry McDonald, a friend of mine. In May 1976, he told Ron Paul that I was available to work on his staff, and Paul hired me in June. The untold story of KAL 007 is … Continue reading →

In an interview with GoldSeek on April 14, outspoken economist Peter Schiff issued a dire warning to investors. According to Schiff, a new housing bubble, an overvalued stock market, and President Trump‘s proposed stimulus plan will send the U.S. into extreme panic at some point in the near future. In fact, Schiff thinks these catalysts will combine to cause an “inflationary maelstrom” that will “wipe out entire generations of retirees” who have their nest eggs invested in the market. Let’s take a look… Current Prices on popular forms of Gold Bullion Schiff Sees a New Kind of Echo Bubble This … Continue reading →

“Why would I call China a currency manipulator when they are working with us on the North Korean problem?” tweeted President Donald Trump on Easter Sunday. Earlier, after discovering “great chemistry” with Chinese President Xi Jinping over “the most beautiful piece of chocolate cake” at Mar-a-Lago, Trump had confided, “I explained … that a trade deal with the U.S. will be far better for them if they solve the North Korean problem!” “America First” thus takes a back seat to big-power diplomacy with Beijing. One wonders: How much will Xi end up bilking us for his squeezing of Kim Jong … Continue reading →
