Government debt is no longer a distant policy problem—it is a present economic reality shaping everything from inflation to interest rates. The United States continues to run massive deficits year after year, with total debt climbing into levels that would have once been considered unthinkable. Yet, despite the scale of the problem, political incentives remain unchanged: spend more, borrow more, and push the consequences into the future.

In 1971, when the last formal link between the dollar and gold was severed, more than a monetary system collapsed. Something more subtle, and more consequential, was quietly abandoned: the very idea of a limit—not a technical constraint subject to adjustment—but an ontological boundary separating what can be deliberately produced from what can only emerge through human action over time. Once that boundary disappeared, money ceased to resist and became, for the first time, fully administrable.

In 1901, on far-away Balangiga—a village in Eastern Samar of the Philippines—an American general gave an order that stripped away any notion of “civilizing” or “Christianizing” a foreign people: “Make it a howling wilderness.”

From our freedom to use or transform our private property emerges the freedom to trade it with anyone we choose. This freedom to trade inadvertently transforms mankind into a global supercomputer where private sector companies are always engaged in the process of economic competition which motivates companies to innovate and copy the innovations of competitors.

One of the problems with trying to police “hate” is that it gives the Thought Police an incentive to persecute their fellow citizens, and if they do not find a sufficient number of haters lurking in their midst, they invent them. There is now an entire sector of “experts” dedicated to eradicating hate, and it seems they are now concerned that there may not be enough hate to sustain their hate-finding activities.

The US regime can entice “cooperation” from tech companies with enough taxpayer money and threats of regulation. 

Once reserved to actual American servicemen, Republicans now seek taxpayer funded benefits for Americans who fight for Israel.
