Washington’s Latest Match Made In Hell
Washington’s Latest Match Made In Hell Almost Predictable One of the more enticing things about financial markets is not that they’re predictable. Or that they’re not predictable.

Why Dismissing Globalist Warnings as ‘Project Fear’ May Prove a Mistake
Why Dismissing Globalist Warnings as ‘Project Fear’ May Prove a Mistake In film and literature, the majority of stories feature a customary villain, either in a singular or collective sense. Someone or something that we can pour scorn on as the hero flounders in the face of increasingly insurmountable odds. Whilst the hero invariably wins out in […]
Money: How Its Past Predicts Its Future
Money: How Its Past Predicts Its Future What is money, where does it come from and more importantly where does it go?

Where Will You Be Seated at the Banquet of Consequences?
Where Will You Be Seated at the Banquet of Consequences? The Banquet of Consequences is being laid out, and so the question is: where will you be seated?

Peter Schiff: This Is the Beginning of a Much Bigger Crisis (Video)
Peter Schiff: This Is the Beginning of a Much Bigger Crisis (Video) Wall Street has been on a roller coaster ride over the last few months. If you listen to the pundits on the financial networks, you’ll hear the word “volatile” used over and over again. That word certainly seems to describe the current state […]
Rate of Change
Rate of Change We’ve got to change our ornithological nomenclature. Hawks become doves because they are chickens underneath. Doves became hawks for reasons they don’t really understand. A fingers-crossed policy isn’t a robust one, so there really was no reason to expect the economy to be that way. In January 2019, especially the past few […]
The scenarios of the collapse
The scenarios of the collapse 2019 has started more calmly after a very volatile year-end in the markets.

The Austere Neoliberal Globalist Agenda
The Austere Neoliberal Globalist Agenda ‘You’ve over-fed him, ma’am. You’ve raised a artificial soul and spirit in him, ma’am unbecoming a person of his condition: as the board, Mrs. Sowerberry, who are practical philosophers, will tell you. What have paupers to do with soul or spirit? It’s quite enough that we let ’em have live […]
Money is no Object
Money is no Object Chances are, most of what you’ve learned about taxes and the economy is wrong. In fact, the key principles at work in our economic system are very different from what we’re taught. If you find you’re one of those who’s been misled, it’s not your fault. A system such as ours […]
Neoliberalism: Free Market Fundamentalism or Corporate Power?
Neoliberalism: Free Market Fundamentalism or Corporate Power? Drawing by Nathaniel St. Clair I’ve been hearing about neoliberalism for a long time now and never could make much sense of it. It turns out the story we tell about neoliberalism is as contradictory as neoliberalism itself. Two currents within the critique of neoliberalism offer different analyses […]
