The central banks are leading the world into a black hole and have no idea what a disaster they have created. What initially seemed like a nice money spinner for the private bankers in 1913 when the Fed was set up has resulted in a $2 quadrillion (at least) monster that is now totally out of control. Banks and central banks are experts at forging money During the last hundred years, the Ponzi scheme seemed to work beautifully under the guise of Keynesianism. So whenever there was a problem in any economy in the world, all that was needed was … Continue reading

My last two articles, judging from the volume of email I got, were very well received. People want to know how history, like the seasons, tends to happen in cycles and patterns that are somewhat predictable. When it comes to the United States government repeating history, that is easier to predict than the weather. One thing I touched on in a previous article is the fact that the West, and the United States government who pulls the entire West along like a child pulls a toy wagon, is unable to understand the concept of tribal violence. In truth, tribal and … Continue reading

All over the world, historic monuments made of stone have been standing for millennia. Given that they were raised before the concept of writing extensive logs caught on, there are no records from builders or nearby residents as to the purpose of each monument. Despite this, clues in the structures themselves may tell us why they were raised. Dolmens were used to bury the dead while some standing stones “worked together” with other monuments to help early peoples chart the stars. Some sites, however, have histories so shrouded in mystery that it’s hard to say what they were truly for. … Continue reading

Former Texas Republican Congressman, three-time presidential candidate and the real “original libertarian” in U.S. politics Ron Paul spoke to libertarians at the Young Americans for Liberty conference this week. What makes this appearance even more interesting is that he refrained from mention Libertarian Party nominee Gary Johnson’s name even once. Here is what the Daily Caller reports: Ron Paul gave a speech to about 400 libertarians at the Young Americans for Liberty conference on Tuesday and he didn’t say Gary Johnson’s name once. The former Texas Congressman who led the libertarian wing of the Republican Party during the 2008 and 2012 … Continue reading

For years now, residents of Sonora, California have been hearing a window-shaking loud and so far officially unexplained BOOM! that always happens between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. daily. Inquisitr reports that the explanation floating around Sonora from a local geologist/teacher is that an Army Depot in Hawthorne, Nevada, all the way across the state and behind a mountain range which disposes of old munitions like bombs, might be what residents have been hearing. But do they have so many old bombs to dispose of that they do it daily every single day even on weekends and holidays without fail … Continue reading

There are plenty of differences between men and women, but one that may have gone under the radar for most people is they fact that the sexes have different techniques for taking off their shirts. While women tend to cross their arms over their waists and pull off their shirts up from the bottom, men are inclined to put their hands over their heads and grab their tops from behind to take them off. Noelle Devoe, a web editor at Seventeen.com, found herself asking why this is, and after coming up with her own theories, she did some research and learned that … Continue reading

“One Ring to rule them all . . . and in the darkness bind them.”J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings World War II resulted in Europe being conquered, not by Berlin but by Washington. The conquest was certain but not all at once. Washington’s conquest of Europe resulted from the Marshall Plan, from fears of Stalin’s Red Army that caused Europe to rely on Washington’s protection and to subordinate Europe’s militaries to Washington in NATO, from the replacement of the British pound as world reserve currency with the US dollar, and from the long process of the subordination of … Continue reading

If Donald Trump is elected US president it will spell the end of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. At least, that’s how a phalanx of US foreign policy pundits and establishment figures see it. Trump once again caused uproar recently with comments that were viewed as undermining a «cornerstone» of US foreign policy since the Second World War. Ahead of accepting official nomination as the Republican party presidential candidate, the billionaire property magnate told the New York Times in an interview that, if elected, he would not automatically deploy American military forces to defend another member of NATO if it were attacked. As the NYT noted … Continue reading

…a better title for us would be the Least Great Generation, because that’s what we were. –        Roger Simon Roger Simon is the author of I Know Best: How Moral Narcissism Is Destroying Our Republic If It Hasn’t Already.  Simon describes the defining characteristic of this generation not just as narcissistic, but something far more dangerous and pervasive: That form is moral narcissism—a pathology that underlies the whole liberal left ethic today and some of the right as well. The Pathology The short form is this: What you believe, or claim to believe or say you believe—not what you do … Continue reading

After today’s uneventful Fed announcement, all eyes turn to the BOJ where many anticipate some form of “helicopter money” is about to be unveiled in Japan by the world’s most experimental central bank. However, as Nomura’s Richard Koo warns, central banks may get much more than they bargained for, because helicopter money “probably marks the end of the road for believers in the omnipotence of monetary policy who have continued to press for further accommodation in the midst of a balance sheet recession, when such policies simply cannot work.” As he continues, believers “have doggedly insisted that it is possible … Continue reading
