Failing socialist states

| December 31, 2009

An overview of states’ budget problems at Dollars and Sense. States are running revenue shortfalls that average 24 percent. The big problems: states run welfare programs employing vast numbers of bureaucrats. The federal government currently supplies around 20 percent of states’ budgets, for Medicare. Neither of these trends is sustainable. Each state is faced with […]

Afghanistan fronts the wider war

| December 28, 2009

We refrained from commenting on President Obama’s Afghanistan speech. As you’ll recall, the Right was excited about Obama sending more troops and the Left was appalled. Nobody could figure out why Obama would announce a troop escalation and then set a deadline for beginning withdrawal eighteen months later. Obama succeeded in confusing everyone. The confusion […]

Radical Evolution, Part 2

Review of Joel Garreau, Radical Evolution, New York: Doubleday, 2004. Opposition to DARPA’s Planned Future Henry David Thoreau warned that men have become tools of their tools, but this warning hasn’t stopped anything. Thousands of sci fi movies showing the controllers controlling the masses haven’t changed anything. We can’t expect mass opposition when the agenda […]

We are still standing on square one pointing to the people and institutions that want to control us under the New World Order. We haven’t paid enough attention to the U.S. military. No, we are not talking about Iraq and Afghanistan, counterinsurgency strategies, or psyops strategies to spread disinformation through the U.S. media. We are […]
