‘Road that leads to hell’ Italy launches project showing horrors migrants face on way to EU

I’d like to address some aspects of the Greater Depression in this essay. I’m here to tell you that the inevitable became a reality in 2008. We’ve had an interlude over the last few years financed by trillions of new currency units. However, the economic clock on the wall is reading the same time as it was in 2007, and the Black Horsemen of your worst financial nightmares are about to again crash through the doors and end the party. And this time, they won’t be riding children’s ponies, but armored Percherons. To refresh your memory, let me recount what … Continue reading

When I started my radio show almost 15 years ago, on show #1, I told the audience I would only recommend vehicles that had great long-term reliability, good value for the dollar, and good resale value.  I have stuck to those tenets all these years.  Before going on the air the first time, I listened to a number of other automotive shows and was amazed that not one of them ever mentioned resale value.  I have had people tell me they were not worried about resale value because they leased their cars.  They, too, should pay attention to what they … Continue reading

Anti-Russian hysteria in America reached its apogee this week as Democrats tried to divert attention from embarrassing revelations about how the Democratic Party apparatus had rigged the primaries against Bernie Sanders by claiming Vlad Putin and his KGB had hacked and exposed the Dem’s emails. This was rich coming from the US that snoops into everyone’s emails and phones across the globe. Remember German chancellor Angela Merkel’s cell phone being bugged by the US National Security Agency? Unnamed US ‘intelligence officials’ claimed they had ‘high confidence’ that the Russian KGB or GRU (military intelligence) had hacked the Dem’s emails. These … Continue reading

Finland is the most northern country in the world. This has helped to keep it out of harms way and remain a safe haven. Many studies have called Finland the most peaceful and stable country in the world. Soon Finns realised that it was because Finland offered the greatest benefits to refugees. Even more generous than Sweden which was reeling from mass immigration and actually advising refugees to continue to Finland. Hardly anyone in Finland had thought that a lot of refugees would actually come to Finland to claim the generous benefits. But now here they were on the border. … Continue reading

When I was young, America still existed. No more. Not even the blather from the 4th of July can hide the obvious fact. The young do not know that they have lost their country because they are born into a time when the country is lost. To them that is normalcy. Besides, the young are too busy texting and describing themselves, often intimately, on social media to be aware of the fate that awaits them, lost as they are in their insouciance. When I was young, the police were the public’s friends. We could count on them to help us, … Continue reading

Struggle for Empire: Kingship and Conflict Under Louis the German, 817 – 876, by Eric J. Goldberg. One key source of income for Louis the German was the collection of tribute – for example, collected from the Danes and various Slavic people.  I find this of little noteworthy interest in and of itself; what is noteworthy is the amount – and what that amount represented: …Louis could demand some 335 pounds of silver annually from the Slavs and the Danes….Of course, frequent rebellions made it likely that Louis often received only half the owed tribute in a given year.  Nevertheless, … Continue reading

Science is held in unique esteem in our society. When we see the words “a study shows” in a newspaper, most people will just accept that whatever follows is the truth. When we see that an article cites an academic journal, we step back and applaud that finally, somebody is giving us the facts. And that’s actually a good thing—or, at least, it should be. We should be able to trust that these studies and papers were created by people dedicated to the pursuit of the truth. But there are a few dirty secrets behind the studies we like to … Continue reading

This first appeared in The Libertarian Forum, Volume XI, NO.2, March-April, 1978 Someone has, indubitably, shot and almost assassinated Larry Flynt, creator and publisher of Hustler and other publications. Why did he do it? The Establishment theory is that a lone nut Christian did it, and indeed they picked up an authentic Christian at the scene of the crime, only to find that he was not the assassin. Let us examine the alternative possible theories: (1) the Lone Nut Christian. But why would the lone Christian, however nutty, try to kill Larry Flynt shortly after he had converted from pornography to Jesus? Maybe before, … Continue reading

I am in the throes of finishing a book on the upheaval represented by the Trump candidacy and movement. It is an exploration of how 30 years of Bubble Finance policies at the Fed, feckless interventions abroad and mushrooming Big government and debt at home have brought America to its current ruinous condition. It also delves into the good and bad of the Trump campaign and platform and outlines a more consistent way forward based on free markets, fiscal rectitude, sound money, constitutional liberty, non-intervention abroad, minimalist government at home and decentralized political rule. In order to complete the manuscript on a … Continue reading
