If Our Draconian, Totalitarian Measures Save Just One 89-Year Old With COPD and a Month to Live While We Sanction the Murder of Thousands–Well, It Is Worth It

April 25, 2020

It should not be a surprise that the best writing on the COVID insanity/hysteria comes from the always brilliant and erudite Jorg Guido Hulsmann. That he reports from France and that he understands our current madness within the nation that has produced such heroes of liberty (DeTocqueville, Bastiat) and on the other extreme, Marats, Dantons,…

Maryland Hunts Its Citizens with Unaccountable Paramilitary Force

April 25, 2020

The fact that the murder of Duncan Lemp has garnered so little attention across the country and in major media outlets reveals just how precarious the state of liberty is at the moment, COVID-19 or no COVID-19. If a police force can invade the home of a 21-year old, launch stun grenades into his basement,…

Models, Models, and Mid-wits

April 16, 2020

This is a semi-gratuitous photo of Cindy Crawford in her heyday. Still, timeless beauty… And then there’s this: Posterity will look back and see timeless idiocy and complacency here, not beauty but obsequious bowing to the state. Beauty and truth are transcendentals for a reason; and there is synergy between them, thus the contrast between…

Flattening the Curve is Today’s WMD

April 7, 2020

18 years ago.101 years ago. Same problem, but not without solutions. And, no, illegally quarantining people is not one of them. There is so much relevant historical perspective here, even if at first peering through the looking glass of history it does not seem as such. Almost a score ago, the Bush administration, run by…

Collective Moral High Ground is About An Inch from Hell

March 26, 2020

Haven’t we had enough of this thing already? The pseudo-cure and hysteria rising from it are certainly worse than the virus. Quarantines have NEVER proven to be successful in combating pandemics. Add to the imposed isolation economic misery, supply downturns, mass unemployment and governments blowing up their currencies, well, how long can the ruling class…

Spengler, Stantz, Zeddemore and Venkman Were Right… What If We’re Wrong?!

March 23, 2020

Then, it won’t be Slimer or Zuul, the Gate Keeper or the Key Master who end up in the trap. This COVID-19 thing is an unwarranted hysteria that governments local, provincial, national–the world over have created. I mean, how many times do the mass media outlets have to echo the same talking points until someone…

Fear that Flatlines the Patient: The Rooseveltian Oath= Do All Harm

March 21, 2020

How weak is a civilization that the free functioning of people and their commerce can be crippled, and perhaps in the end destroyed, by hapless morons parading their power yet simultaneously revealing their incompetence? The backdrop is a manufactured pandemic that pseudo-intellectuals assert–based on flawed World Health Organization numbers–is more virulent and deadly than the…

Down with the Twerkers, Frat Boys, Sorority Girls

March 20, 2020

No. Do not denounce them as selfish or stupid; naive or self-absorbed. When I say down with the twerkers on spring break, I mean get down with the twerkers in Florida, as in “get down” ala “Jungle Buggie” by Kool & The Gang. As it turns out, the defense, remedy, even cure for the respiratory…

The DMV–Department of Menacing Viruses

March 18, 2020

The reeducation camps have been working assiduously for years, decades now to impart a singular message that the student-prisoners just cannot seem to get through their thick, common-sense nourished and fortified skulls; namely, government is beneficent, cognizant, and omnipotent. The student-prisoners consist of those beyond the obviously shackled in Bismarck-Mann public Schulen because the traditional…

A Russian, An American, and An Austrian–All Cowboys, All Fighting Injustice… YEE-HAW!

March 3, 2020

First, Alexander Solzhenitsyn from The Gulag Archipelago: In keeping silent about evil, in burying it so deep within us that no sign of it appears on the surface, we are implanting it, and it will rise up a thousand fold in the future. When we neither punish nor reproach evildoers, we are not simply protecting…
