How the economy really works, how to fix it, who is breaking it, and why they are breaking it.
(updated October 2013) I will uncover the reality the media are hiding from us. The media are biased. They’re telling us that the Obama economic recovery is here, and that, this time, it’s real. They’re hoping that you won’t remember this is about the 20th time they’ve said this. Of course, now that the election […]
“You didn’t build that.” (full context) Obama is saying that if you’re successful, you’re not exceptional. You are still just like most other people, so you must owe almost all of your success to government, to your employees and customers, and to taxpayers. So, he wants you to understand that he represents all of those […]
There is only one viable solution to saving the black community, and After it saves the black community, it will save America, and After it saves America, it will save the world. The solution is Freedom of Education. The modern self-perpetuating cycle of government dependency in the black community began with poverty. Poverty leads to […]
If we had to choose between lower federal spending or lower federal taxes, which would be better? That’s easy. Lower spending is better than lower taxes. Suppose the government spent nothing. That means the government wouldn’t be doing anything. It wouldn’t be interfering with our lives or our economy. We would have maximum freedom and […]
Government caused the crash in 2008, the cover up, and the subsequent depression. This analysis will explain the crash, and this external link will explain the cover up.

If you’re like 95% of Americans, you’ve NEVER thought of money as a just another product – like iPhones or insurance policies, but how is money NOT a product? What if any of us could invent a useful money and sell it to whoever wanted to use it? What if our money were better than […]
Congress has repeatedly demonstrated that it has enormous ability to affect the economy, but our Representatives are pretty well insulated from the economic effects of their decisions. I think we can all agree that Congress needs to feel the effects of their decisions – even more than we do. Let’s also consider that if the […]
At a time when the President is trying to revive old-school progressivism, he would be wise to remember the 1992 epiphany by old school progressive George McGovern. Like the current President, Senator McGovern had been making rules for businesses while having never worked in the real business world nor having owned a real business. Then […]
At every point in one’s career, a successful business person thinks like this: Nothing is personal. Everything is just the “cost of doing business.” Hold on to nothing. Everything in the past is “sunk money”. Go with the crowd. Try to stay at the front of the crowd, but never go against the crowd. Make […]
Imagine if every home generated and stored its own electricity. The way I envision it, we would be more self-sufficient, more environmentally friendly, less dependent on foreign oil, and less vulnerable to attack on our power plants. We can already generate electricity at our home if we want, but most of us do not because […]
