By Matt Taibbi In the fall of 2008, America’s wealthiest companies were in a pickle.

The free-market purists at […]

It’s unfortunate that “libertarianism” is often conflated with plutocracy by both the Left and Right with Bismarckian “Prussian Socialism” (what Americans call “progressivism”) as the supposed solution. Reaganites and their descendants are about as “libertarian” as King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella. Corporate plutocracy results from a plethora of […]
The impact of this will be to double the wages of the higher level unskilled and semi-skilled, but at the cost of unemployment for the least skilled. The petite bourgeoisie, which has already been decimated by the lockdowns, will be further harmed. Minimum wage increases are a band-aid […]

A social media poster comments: “The Pandemic” didn’t do SHIT!!!! The media did! The political class did! The academic class did! Hopkins did! The CDC did! The WHO did! White Coat worship did! Worshipful deference to and blind trust in authority did! The oligarchs and plutocrats did! The […]
It is in part for reasons like this that I have always considered myself to be a traditional anarchist rather than a modern libertarian. Libertarians tend to be overly focused on the formal political government in the same way that Marxists are overly focused on the capitalists. I […]
The government’s response to COVID-19 has been to protect the health of the affluent classes at the expense of the poor and working-class, who still have to either go to work or simply do without an income. By Geoff Colvin, Fortune The economic effects of COVID-19 could prove deadlier […]
By Jp Cortez, Sound Money Defense League The recent explosion of money printing and debt-funded spending by the U.S. in response to the Covid-19 pandemic has sparked a renewed interest in the key role gold and silver play in hedging against systemic risks. That’s why a group of […]

The term “totalitarian humanism” is the one I use for the self-legitimating ideological superstructure of the ruling classes, states, and power elites of developed (“First World”) countries. Totalitarian humanism’s core features would be the following: -masking imperialism under the guise of “human rights,” “collective security,” “duty to protect,” […]
By J. P. Cortez Introduced by Representative Zuber (R-Jackson), House Bill 375 removes sales and use tax against gold, silver, platinum, and palladium bullion and currency in Mississippi. Under current law, Mississippi citizens are discouraged from insuring their savings against the devaluation of the dollar because they are […]

An interesting discussion of how unipolarity and globalization are receding and a multi-order order of networks based on “shared values” is gradually emerging in its place. “Globalization is on its deathbed,” says economist Mike O’Sullivan.

US politics right now (and to some degree Western politics generally) seems to be kind of repeat of what happened in the 19th century when the rising industrial bourgeois was eclipsing the traditional royal, aristocratic, an clerical elites as the dominant class. Right now we have this rising […]
As I have been predicting for 20 years. Big Tech is becoming a dominant faction of the ruling class (along with Big Finance and the always present BLOB). The professional managerial class has become the new clergy with totalitarian humanism as its ideology. Tech industry managers are the […]
