The Houston GOP debate on February 25, 2016, was the most contentious one yet, with attacks and crosstalk galore. The best part, of course, is the next day, when Lew Rockwell and I get to chat about it! Here’s our conversation and analysis. Listen to the podcast For audio of the previous debates go to TomWoods.com.

An interesting pattern developed early in the official involvement in global warming. If a person challenged the claim that humans were causing global warming (AGW), it was assumed they were on the political right. If you supported AGW, then you were on the left. This categorization is not related to the science, but to the political nature of the science involved. This occurred in two major parts. The original objective of those using global warming for their political agenda and the marginalizing of those who questioned the science by linking them to industries and their wealthy owners. The author believes … Continue reading →

With “the Withering Away of the State” as the explicit goal, the worldwide socialist revolutions in the early decades of the 20th Century had the right idea. Instead, they nearly all ended up with the most repressive murderous totalitarian states in human history. What went wrong? They made, at least, two major mistakes, both relevant today. The first is obvious to nearly everyone except modern establishment economists. 1. The socialists didn’t understand the necessity of private property, trade, markets, competition, and so-called “profit” — especially among strangers — to discourage waste, motivate technological evolution and thus prosperity — and to … Continue reading →

We can’t seriously say you were born to drive a particular car if you were born under a particular sign. Astrology isn’t so simple. Nor is life. Practical issues prevent us all from driving our dreams. If, when you look up your sign, your jaw drops, please remember this is a discussion, not a prescription. Remember too, that your sign can impact HOW you drive as much as WHAT you drive. In compiling this list, I’ve tried to answer just one question. What kind of vehicle your sign would most resemble… if only you were a car? ARIES (March 21 – April … Continue reading →

I’m going to start with one premise: Food is medicine. Everything we put into our bodies has an effect, and we can either support our health or diminish it. There are a number of superfoods out there that have awesome health benefits, like avocados for cancer prevention and blueberries for antioxidants, but what about super supplements? While there are many to choose from, Chlorella, in particular, is an absolute powerhouse. All natural and completely safe for consumption, it is a freshwater blue-green algae which boost energy, supports fat loss, improves skin, and helps detox heavy metals like lead and mercury from the body. Chlorella … Continue reading →

Can a simple test determine whether you’re a more left wing or more right wing? According to a recently published study, researchers believed they’ve discovered a simple trick that can be used to determine a person’s political leaning – and it’s all down to the kind of words they prefer to use. Before we tell you more – can we tell whether you’re on the left or right? We’ve given you five pairs of sentences below. From each pair, pick the sentence you’d be more likely to say. Researchers at the University of Kent believe that right-wingers and left-wingers tend … Continue reading →

Less than two years ago, news of Russia test-firing an ICBM just as the east Ukraine civil war was heating up was sufficient to send the stock market into a brief tailspin. Since then, the launches of nuclear-tipped intercontinental ballistic missiles has become an almost daily occurrence, with the market hardly batting an eyelid. In fact, it happened just last night at 11:01pm PST at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, where – for the second time this week – the US test-fired its second intercontinental ballistic missile in the past seven days, seeking to demonstrate its nuclear arms capacity … Continue reading →
