If someone were to ask you “who is the richest man of all time,” the name Bill Gates or Warren Buffett might pop into your head. Although those men are exceedingly wealthy, they are far from the top 10. The richest of the rich belong in a separate club than the rest. It is a club for men who have built legendary amounts of wealth and monumental legacies. Here is a list of the top 10 wealthiest men in human history! 10 Cornelius Vanderbilt Photo via Wikimedia Born to an impoverished farmer and boatman in May 1794, Cornelius Vanderbilt is … Continue reading →

How much did the military-security complex pay the Atlantic Council to publish this sales pitch to Poland to load up on US weapons systems? The sales pitch was written by arms salesmen Richard Shirreff, a partner at Strategia Worldwide Ltd., and Maciej Olex-Szczytowski, a “business adviser specializing in defense.” The sales pitch is titled “Arming For Deterrence.” The Kremlin is unpredictable, say the arms salesmen, and could at any moment decide to attack Poland. However, the Russian regime “respects a show of force” and would back down if Poland has a sufficient inventory of US weapons. The sales pitch encourages … Continue reading →

I’ve finally figured out why so many pundits and journalists are signing on to the new cold war with Russia: they weren’t alive during the last one. They have no memory of the Cuban missile crisis, they didn’t grow up in the era of backyard bomb shelters: for them, Fail Safe and On the Beach are just old movies. Take Greg Sargent, an opinion columnist with the Washington Post, who was a twinkle in his parents’ eyes when John F. Kennedy put American nukes in Turkey and the Russians responded by installing nuclear missiles in Cuba. So eager is he … Continue reading →

Well done. A timely, important and often-forgotten part of US history is preserved. Thoughtfully and beautifully curated. Great work, Joe, and Kristina. As I watched this, I remembered the 4H camp I attended as a kid was originally one of these camps. Had no idea what that meant at the time and never thought about it again until now. Perfect timing for this film, given the current climate and debate over immigration in this country and globally. Highly recommend! Another Surprise About US Germans! We thought that it was an excellent film! We did not know about German families living … Continue reading →

Shocking new pictures of the filthy waters in Rio have revealed yet more concerns for Olympic athletes in Brazil who have been told not to put their heads under water. Ganabara Bay will host the triathlon, sailing, and some swimming events at the Games and last week a floating corpse and a severed arm were found floating in the water. A study has shown viral levels  in the bay is up to 1.7 million times what would be considered worrisome in the United States or Europe. Just days ahead of the Olympic Games the waterways of Rio de Janeiro are … Continue reading →

It is a sad commentary on the state of political life in the United States that our political conventions have become more like rock music festivals than competitions of ideas. There has been a great deal of bombast, of insults, of name-calling, and of chest-beating at both party conventions, but what is disturbingly absent is any mention of how we got to this crisis and how we can get out. From the current foreign policy mess to the looming economic collapse, all we hear is both party candidates saying they will fix it, no problem. In her convention speech, Hillary … Continue reading →

Dinesh D’Souza is a funny little man who is actually of normal height but looks so unthreatening, you can’t help but think what a cute kid he must have been. You’d be forgiven for assuming he was asexual until you meet his wife, who is a pulchritudinous Latina from Venezuela with a sassy attitude that includes seething vitriol when it comes to the subject of Chávez. I met both of them in New York on Friday, and it was fun because I had just seen Hillary’s America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party, which is quite possibly the greatest … Continue reading →

What economists call an ability to make “compensating differences” is a valuable tool in everyone’s arsenal. If people are prohibited from doing so, they are always worse off. You say, “Williams, I never heard of compensating differences. What are they?” Jimmy Soul’s 1963 hit song, “If You Wanna Be Happy,” explained the concept of compensating differences. His lyrics went: “If you want to be happy for the rest of your life, never make a pretty woman your wife. So from my personal point of view, get an ugly girl to marry you.” His point was that an ugly woman would … Continue reading →
