The Carrot Versus The Stick
Dear Friends, It seems to me, legalists think in terms of punishments while moralists think in terms of incentives. The carrot and the stick principle applies to both, but which is predominant depends on ideology. Legalists believe all human behavior … Continue reading

Dear Friends, The Devil thinks he’ll have his day,His allies their nations they betray,A maggot of course,Feasting on a corpse,And in the end he’ll lose anyway. This lurch rightward to the elite it isn’t soothing,Elites have made a mess of … Continue reading

Dear Friends, What’s that protest down at the quad,Some half-wits who think they are God,The left is insane,Singing a refrain,Now they’re forming a circular firing squad. In Davos I hear the central planners met,Conniving and striving more power to get,People … Continue reading

Dear Friends, There once was a city called the Big Apple,With Broadway, Wall Street, and many people,A hub of commerce,Making it worse,That it committed Seppuku without scruple. The rulers dance and drink their malt,While distracting if he’s worth his salt,Never … Continue reading

The Problem Of Power
Dear Friends, It seems to me, the root of all evil isn’t love of money, but of power… because money is power. Power of one over another leads to every crime, atrocity and tyranny in history. The answer then is … Continue reading

Peaks Come After Changes
Dear Friends, It seems to me, peaks come after changes, not before or during. As the coldest part of winter is when the days are getting longer, peaks in social phenomenon come after public opinion has changed. Today we can … Continue reading

Regulations
Dear Friends, It seems to me, government regulation has the unique ability to get all the bad things from capitalism, excluding the good. From monopoly to regulatory capture, government abets the worse aspects of free markets, while suppressing the feedback … Continue reading

Inflation And Deflation
Dear Friends, It seems to me, when Trump takes command, even if the Fed were to cut interest rates, there will be deflation, not inflation… as long as he cuts government spending, taxes and regulation at the same time. Think … Continue reading
