Who Gets to Decide?

Since Richard Nixon temporarily ended the convertibility of the US Dollar into gold on August 15th, 1971, economists have been debating the importance of budget deficits.  This latest group promises that money doesn't grow on trees but sovereign governments can print and spend unlimited amounts of currency, as long as inflation is held in check.  Advocates of this policy are the Modern M...

As libertarianism gains prominence both Republicans and Democrats use these ideas to beat each other up. It seems then that libertarianism is not fully understood by those trying to define it or destroy it.  Join me today as we look at a popular John Stossel presentation where these critiques are made.  We can take on the misconception and set the record straight.  Even John Stossel...

In a world of price inflation, fiat money, and overzealous central bankers, most people have to be in the stock market to ever have any hope of retiring.  Do stocks mostly go up?  Do you have to be exposed to financial markets all of the time to make money?  Join me today as we cover some of the most common financial cliches and tell you what you really need to know to protect yours...

Do you remember what was happening in 2021?  That's right there was a massive "vaccine" campaign under the direction of our "wise" leaders in the National Government.  Now we know there was a HUGE increase in ALL CAUSE in 2021.  This comes from one of the most reliable sources on the planet, Life Insurance Companies.  Join me today as we dig into this and lay the blame squarely...

You've probably been hearing that interest rates are going up, but what does this mean and how will this impact us?  We all know that there has been a tremendous rise in home values, and many of us know people that have benefited financially from this phenomenon.  Will the next 30 years be the same as the last 30?  Not likely!  Interest rates are rising and The Fed or anybody e...

For years it has aggravated me how politicians have co-opted language for political reasons to manipulate and obfuscate the truth from people.  Like many things, this trend seems to be accelerating.  Join me today as we use Bill Mahr's HBO program to analyze the words he says are being changed by the political left.

Is there anybody out there who desires to live under the policies being promoted by this government? Many Americans are sitting around asking, "Where's my lawyer?" Indeed, their lawyer cannot be found in Washington D.C. providing representation. Representative government in the U.S. is a joke. Our "representatives" in D.C. are looking out for number one, getting rich while telling us they're worki...

The percentage of Americans getting dumber every year seems to be accelerating, wouldn't that make sense?  The public school system is a disaster, teachers don't seem to care about the children and we keep dumping more and more money into schools and getting results that are dismal.  Isn't this the definition of insanity?  Join me today as we listen to a Tik Tok's version of Jay Len...

The Green Dream policy push from governments around the world is starting to bear the fruits of massive distortions into the free market.  Many countries around the world whose economies were operating at the very ragged edge of survival have now slipped into chaos as climate change and ESG policies ravage their energy and food markets.  In the case of Sri Lanka, the entire government wa...

During COVID when electronic learning was in full swing and parents everywhere learned that their children were being taught more than English, Math, and History, a massive backlash ensued at school board meetings across the country. All of the sudden, black children were oppressed and white children were privileged.  Parents poured into school board meetings to ensure elected officials knew...

At the beginning of the pandemic, we were told that the "vaccine" would protect us from COVID-19 infection.  Later we were told that it would save us from death or hospitalization, which no studies have shown. People assert this as if it is a given, not disputable, mere fact because they're echoing what the CDC or Dr. Fauci said.  Now Dr. Fauci tells us that he believes that his being do...

We might not ever learn of the purpose of the government's interest in Gain of Function Research.  What we've learned thus far is shocking and serves absolutely nobody but the power-hungry, maniacal, crazy state actors who see threats around every corner and are obsessed with controlling everything and everybody.  From the beginning, the entire story has been shrouded in secrecy, lies, a...

Clean water to drink and clean air to breathe have always been a top concern of most Americans.  The modern area, however, has given us environmentalism.  Like corporations, environmentalists have organized to lobby congress for its attention and its vast taxpayer resources.  Ever since Al Gore told us that the glaciers were melting, causing oceans to rise worldwide in an "Inconveni...

On a daily basis now, President Joe Biden's health and competency are being called into question.  Most have been focused on whether or not he will run for re-election in 2024, but what if he doesn't even make it to 2024?  VP Kamala Harris would be thrust into the Presidency in the event Joe Biden was found to be incompetent and relieved of duty.  What would this mean for America? &...

Does anybody really know what George Soros is up to?  At this point, it may not be clear, but one of the adverse effects he is having on our society is the increasing frequency and severity of violent crime in major cities.  One after the other, major metropolitan areas have adopted "no bail" or "low bail" policies that have flooded our city streets with violent repeat offenders.  T...

For decades now both parties have thrust their individual visions onto Americans, to the point now, that people are actively resisting the other side's vision.  It used to be that Americans could get along because they only had to agree on a handful of things; civil liberty and property rights.  Most people's culture was informed by their local towns and communities.  Now people fro...

With high gas prices and high inflation ravaging the American consumer, people are stressed, worried, and beginning to get agitated by their financial circumstances.  The FED has created a very dangerous situation with its profligate credit and money creation.  It has backed itself into a corner and is not likely to navigate a safe path to financial stability for the U.S. economy.  ...

In the recent landmark SCOTUS case overturning Roe vs. Wade and sending the legality of abortion back to the states, we take a closer look at the irrationality of politicians and the total war they are waging against the founding principles of these United States.  Alexandria Ocosia-Cortez is one of the most overly dramatic and ignorant politicians elected in recent years.  Her lack of k...

Now that we know minute-by-minute what happened in the tragic school shooting in Uvalde, we can all agree that the police can't keep you safe, right?  No, not according to the talking heads on the corporate media outlets.  The message is clear...guns have to be taken away from law-abiding citizens and the tool of choice for doing this will be "Red Flag" laws and AR-15 bans.  But tha...

On the things that really matter, the Republican and Democratic parties are 2-sides of the same coin.  They both advocate for the use of force for the "greater good", but often the "greater good" means waging war in Yemen, or forcing Americans to take a vaccine that is bad for them individually, but MIGHT be good for the country as a whole.  In a society based on self-government, these p...

For decades Julian Assange has exposed the state for some of its most egregious violations of civil liberties and scandals against citizens, not just in this country but in countries all across the world. The courts in the United Kingdom have ruled that allowing Julian Assange to be extradited to the United States will not impact his physical and mental health, clearing the way for a federal trial...

High-interest rates and inverted yield curves.  What does it all mean?  Are we headed for a recession?  How do we know and what should we do?  These questions and more are addressed in today's episode where we talk about recessions and what you need to know about them.

There's been a great deal of talk about interest rates and The FED.  How are all of these things related?  What does it have to do with my job and the economy?  What should I be doing about it?  These are all good questions and we address them on today's show by commenting on an NBC report from Lester Holt.

Beginning with President Obama, we were exposed to the concept of "Clean Coal", which is an oxymoron, but from there we quickly moved in the direction of the "green economy".  Remember the "shovel-ready" jobs initiative, the Obama administration paid Americans to have their windows and doors caulked by an army of construction workers.  He said it would employ millions of Americans while...
