The Tariff Issue Paul Craig Roberts Wherever I look at US policy, foreign or domestic, I see only insanity, ignorance, and incompetence. Take the issue of tariffs, which is Trump’s mistaken approach to bringing the jobs back home. The tariff “solution” overlooks that offshored US production counts as imports when US firms bring their goods…

The Lies About World War II Paul Craig Roberts  In the aftermath of a war, history cannot be written. The losing side has no one to speak for it.  Historians on the winning side are constrained by years of war propaganda that demonized the enemy while obscuring the crimes of the righteous victors.  People want…

Trump Is Being Set-up for War with Iran Paul Craig Roberts Trump destroyed his chance at being a successful president by the stupid appoinments he has made.  At the moment he is being set up by his national security advisor John Bolton and Israel for a war with Iran. Using the same format of lies…

The Lies That Form Our Consciousness and False Historical Awareness Paul Craig Roberts My generation associated dystopias, such as George Orwell’s 1984, with the Soviet Union, a country in which explanations were controlled and criticism of Stalin would land a person in the Gulag.  We thought of the United States and our life here much…

Does Trump Have Control of His Government, or Is It His Government? Paul Craig Roberts I smell a rat.  John Bolton, Trump’s national security adviser or, more correctly, Israel’s agent, has assembled a team consisting of himself, Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Emirati crown prince Mohammed bin Zayed, and Saudi ruler Mohammed bin Salman. These…

Are You Ready for a Worse Dystopia than 1984 ? Paul Craig Roberts I have been lonely in my concern with the dire economic implications of robotics, but now Clarity Press has provided me with some company by publishing The Artificial Intelligence Contagion by David Barnhizer and Daniel Barnhizer.  It is telling as to the…

America Needs A Debt Jubilee Paul Craig Roberts As school children my friends and I were very interested in archeology and ancient civilizations. We read all the available books.

The US Desperately Needs a New Secretary of State Paul Craig Roberts The ignorant warmonger masquerading as an American Secretary of State should be arrested for his impersonation of an American government official.  Mike Pompeo cannot possibly be the US Secretary of State, because not even Donald Trump would appoint an idiot to this high…

White People Will Be Rubbed Out Along With Their History Paul Craig Roberts Recently I wrote of the failure of white liberals to realize the consequences of their good intentions toward preferred minorities.  https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2019/05/01/insights-from-the-cast-iron-shore/   The cost of this miscalculation rises by the day. Now white people in America are to be stripped of their…

apres moi le deluge Paul Craig Roberts I was listening while driving to rightwing talk radio.  It is BS just like NPR.  It was about the great Trump economy compared to the terrible Obama one.  The US hasn’t had a great economy since jobs offshoring began in the 1990s, and with robotics about to launch…

Does America Have an Economy or Any Sense of Reality? Paul Craig Roberts We are having a propaganda barrage about the great Trump economy. We have been hearing about the great economy for a decade while the labor force participation rate declined, real family incomes stagnated, and debt burdens rose.  The economy has been great…
