Economics

Yay! Mark Cuban Beats the Feds and BLASTS THEM!

Great job, Mr. Cuban! A libertarian strikes back!

 

Please lisen to our pod about this story, and about how so-called "insider trading" bans are anti-freedom and bad economics!

If You Had Hired a Private Fire Dept., Would You Accept This Behavior?

Amazing. And the lame excuse the Chief offers is inconsitent with what actually appeared on their "Emergency Tweet".

US Gubment Funding Study to Use Twitter to Measure Population 'Depression'

Whether you like the idea of this study or not, is it appropriate to tell other citizens they MUST pay for it?

Worldwide Protests Over Monsanto

This is a corporation that has been using the feds and other gubments to gain market advantage. Free markets don't welcome that kind of behavior.

Consider Market-Based Parks v Gubment Parks, Shutdowns, Exclusion of Visitors

Here's a piece to start the thought-investigation: http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/oct/9/rangers-arrest-21-venturi...

You'll see that the Grand Canyon federal Park Rangers have arrested 21 people for venturing onto lands that their own taxes have paid to supposedly keep the place going.

US Medical Fascism Law To Share Civilian Data w Law Enforcement, FOIA FIlers

We have tried to tell people that since the bogusly titled Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, the federal gubment has claimed the statutory power to collect your private data. It began doing so last year. Now, it claims the statutory power to share that with police agencies as part of the also bogusly named "Affordable Care Act".

 

Nothing like that 4th Amendment, and those warrants to collect personal information, huh?

The Absurdities of the Fake Gubment Shutdown

Here's one. A couple was illegally detained at the Gettysburg nightmare site for driving on a "closed" road:

Here's another. The feds have continually tried to stop people from even LOOKING at Mt. Rushmore:

During Fantasy "Shut-Down", Fed Gubment Still Taxes Billions, Spends Even More

As we mentioned on the radio program, the feds are STILL engaged in their unconstitutional military operations all around the world, and the US treasury is STILL selling bonds to the Federal Reserve, which just invents money to buy them. Not good, but at least a few alternative media sites are reporting it!

An Example of the Classic Media Biases - Matthews Spits Them

Take a look at this video, and soak in the lovely lack fo substantive analysis of the medical fascism law, the broad-brush ad-hominim attacks, the assuptions about what Ted Cruz is trying to do, rather than the points Crus mentioned in his filibuster. It's a circle jerk of collectivism, hidden behind a curtain of so-called "analysis". Sad and sick.

One wonders why Chris Matthews was calling a Texas Rep a "hero" for filibustering an abortion bill in the "republic" of TX, while he says Cruz is "a problem for the republic".

FISA Judge Rules It's Okay for NSA to Get Phone Meta-Data

Jaden Smith: "School Is There to Brainwash Kids"

Yep. Well said.

Amazing how the pop media jesters don't seem to understand his drift, and would rather stand on the image of being 'concerned' for the education of "our" young people.

Idaho Threatens 12 yr Old Kid for Not Collecting Sales Tax on Raspberries

Classy move, tax-collectors.

We hope more and more people will begin to realize that the state, in its generic form (ie any polis) is nothing more than a mafia working under the guise of statute.

US Energy Department Loses Another $42 Mil Loan to 'Green' Company

Funny, but the "Department of Energy" isn't something that's supposed to exist when one reads the Constitution. And those loans... Hmmm. Systematized theft and redistribution of wealth are immediate injuries to the people who have their cash stolen, be they in this generation, or the ones coming who will have to pay even more debt thanks to these unconstitutional money shifts. How about this idea? If people think these are good investments, they can risk their OWN capital on them, not tax their neighbors for them.

US Labor Participation Rate Hits Lowest Level in 34 Yrs

Just in case anyone was wondering.

 

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/08/28/Labor-Participation-R...

 

Don't forget, the "economic downturn" that began in the US in the spring of 2008 was not merely a recession. There was no rise above Dec 2008 levels of productivity until the end of 2011, which means that it was a DEPRESSION. And the "recovery" is barely that. It's artificial and inspired by bogus extra Federal Reserve Notes (aka "Dollars") being created out of thin air by the Federal Reserve.

Obama's Sleight of Hand on Realty Market: "We need to get Fannie n' Freddie out (and expand direct fed subsidies)."

Leave it to politicians to tell you they are decreasing the amount of government intervention, when, in fact, they are increasing it.

Case in point. President Obama speaking in Arizona, telling people he plans to 'phase out' Fannie and Freddie (both government-created corporations made to artificially increase demand for residential and business buildings, and both supported by federal bailouts). he tells people he's interested in getting the government out of housing. But what he WANTS, if one reads his proposal, is for Fannie and Freddie to pay the federal government money that will be combined with DIRECT federal house-buying aid. It is not a decrease in federal involvement in any way. It's an increase.

Read on, MacDuff!
