Pareto Is The Enemy Of Central Planning

Posted on January 25, 2026 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, once one accepts that Pareto was right, then the question shifts from how to get rid of poverty to what’s the best way to distribute wealth? If poverty can’t be eliminated, then we should … Continue reading →

Dear Friends, Sooner or later the money will run out,Then the dependents will have to pout,A Ponzi scheme,A bankrupt theme,That has to end in an economic rout. The elite do ride about town,Smiling from under a crown,Filled with glee,Never as … Continue reading →

The Stupidity Of Central Planning

Posted on December 28, 2025 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, central planning is when people who don’t know how to farm tell farmers how to grow things, people who can’t build tell those who can build how, and people without a whit of common … Continue reading →

Hubris Leads To Destruction

Posted on November 21, 2025 by john

Dear Friends, It seems the acme of hubris to me, for someone to think they should take over that which they could never have created. We see this in armed robbery, hostile takeovers, and nationalizations. When someone who was unable … Continue reading →

Dear Friends, There’s one sure truth about “the Revolution.”It ushers in violence upheaval and diminution,A menacing mess,A red stained dress,And sanity is a counterrevolutionary solution. When government is an ivory tower,Then human relations begin to sour,The arrogant few,But what’s new,The … Continue reading →

Dear Friends, Buy high sell low,That’s the way the markets go,Ride the carousel,Chase the closing bell,And end up selling matches in the snow. Today the world is run by globalism,Driving populists and elitists to a schism,Democracy’s a mess,The harder they … Continue reading →

Dear Friends While some shrivel others thrive,A few can barely even survive,Chasing mist,Then resist,That it all boils down to gumption and drive. There’s a fantasy life in each of our ids,Striving to come out when we were kids,But life’s a … Continue reading →

Oversimplification Wealth And Power

Posted on September 10, 2025 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, economics is more complex than the elites would have us believe, or understand themselves. Milton Friedman said inflation is always a function of monetary policy, which I think is an oversimplification. John Maynard Keynes … Continue reading →

Dear Friends, British Labor protects the rape gangs you see, As democrats defend pedos from you and me, Birds of a feather, Do flock together, And scumbags that harm children gather politically. The cultural elite are mere political … Continue reading →

Prosperity And Immigration

Dear Friends, It seems to me, people across the planet seek to come to America or Europe, but if offered a chance to bring the laws and customs of America and Europe to their homelands, they balk. This seems like … Continue reading →
