Will We Witness a Fed Chair Who Believes in Gold? | The Libertarian Institute
https://libertarianinstitute.org/articles/will-we-witness-a-fed-chair-who-believes-in-gold/?mc_cid=5af318fd19
Joseph Solis-Mullen reviews Good as Gold: How to Unleash the Power of Sound Money.
"However, I would be remiss in recommending the book if I did not at the same time point out where she falls short. For example, Shelton is far too open to the federal government getting involved in digital currencies and too scared of the fake China threat. She writes, “So much is at stake if the dollar becomes vulnerable to displacement as the world’s reserve currency.” She never explains those stakes but worries about creeping Chinese and Russian gains at the margins of the global financial economy."

The Crisis Industry: How Activists Profit from Panic
https://odysee.com/@johnstossel:7/the-crisis-industry-how-activists-profit:4?r=8T2xqWjtafHWYGxQBSsrbw1wQPm7sWRq
From Stossel
Video Description
> Pollution, homophobia, racism, hate; activists claim everything is getting worse.
The opposite is true. But if they admit that how would they raise money?
> “For activists, success is a threat,” journalist John Tierney explains. “It is going to put you out of business unless you find a new cause.”
> Tierney has covered activists for years and watched them move from one cause to another.
> “But it’s not a business,” I push back. “They're not making money doing this.”
> “Oh, yes, they are,” replies Tierney.
> Lots!
> Our new video looks at how these activist groups raise billions of dollars, the consequences of their activism, and why we fall for their scares.

From The Dave Cullen Show
Talking about how Wesley Snipes may be the only Blade, after all.
I was excited when the new Blade project was announced, but now that the MCU has run out of steam, I'm fine with Snipes being the definitive cinematic Blade.
Is it better to scrap the reboot and perhaps just make another movie with Snipes playing an older Blade?

Joe Biden Is Responsible for Burning Lebanon | The Libertarian Institute
https://libertarianinstitute.org/articles/joe-biden-is-responsible-for-burning-lebanon/?mc_cid=aeb1f7aba3
Daniel Larison on Biden’s role in the war breaking out in Lebanon.
“The Israeli government assumes that the U.S. won’t withhold weapons, diplomatic support, or military protection under any circumstances, and that has encouraged Netanyahu to pursue increasingly aggressive goals. Because the U.S. shields Israel from military reprisals, as it did earlier this year during Iran’s missile and drone strikes, it has given Netanyahu free rein to lash out whenever and wherever he wants. The administration has dressed all of this up as preventing a wider regional war, but the reality is that they have simply delayed the conflagration while making it more likely that it will be even more destructive when it occurs.”

https://odysee.com/@DrBerg:4/the-rise-of-junk-food-in-america:b?r=8T2xqWjtafHWYGxQBSsrbw1wQPm7sWRq
From Dr. Eric Berg
Video Description
> Processed and refined foods have certain components like fiber, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and water removed. “Ultra-processed” means these foods have been processed in a major or severe way.
> Dent corn, for example, undergoes several processes to become food. It is ground, pressurized, and treated with high heat and chemical solvents. It is then decolorized, deodorized, and combined with artificial flavoring, coloring, fillers, preservatives, and flavor enhancers.
> Food can be defined as “that which is eaten to sustain life, provide energy, and promote the growth and repair of tissues.” Ultra-processed foods do not meet this criteria!
> Ultra-processed foods contain three main ingredients: sugar, starches, and seed oils. Check the ingredient list and avoid these foods!
1. Sugar
The sugar in processed foods is often highly altered. Synthetic sugar such as glucose syrup, corn syrup, and dextrose is most often utilized.
2. Starches
Starches are highly processed, synthetic chains of sugar. They aren’t the same as starches found in vegetables. Avoid synthetic starch, like modified cornstarch and maltodextrin.
3. Seed oil
Seed oils such as corn, soy, canola, and cottonseed, are highly processed, refined, and treated with chemical solvents.
> Ultra-processed foods are devoid of vitamins and minerals, which are essential in digesting and using calories. When you eat foods without vitamins and minerals, your body has to pull from its reserves.
> Ultra-processed foods are terrible fuel for your body. Ketones are an alternative fuel source that allows you to tap into your body fat for fuel between meals.
> Pills are often prescribed for blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar rather than addressing the diet that’s causing the problem in the first place.

> Despite all the money spent on US healthcare, an astounding number of Americans suffer from chronic illnesses. Yet the political establishment has shown no interest in even discussing the issue. It's important to understand why.

I'm surprised it's taken this long. Withholding information from patients is such a clear violation of informed consent that there's no way it's covered by manufacturer liability immunity.

That's what I did first. Then, I searched for the pool and it said it doesn't exist.
When I click on the link, though, it says there are two people in the pool.

Be Prepared to Hear More about Taxes, Taxes, Taxes
https://mises.org/mises-wire/be-prepared-hear-more-about-taxes-taxes-taxes
![](https://m.stacker.news/47743)
By Jane L. Johnson
> With the US government engaged in out-of-control spending, we are looking at tax increases in the coming years. And even if Congress does not pass official tax hikes, we will see the government seizing wealth via inflation.
Mises:
> It is important to remember that government interference always means either violent action or the threat of such action. The funds that a government spends for whatever purposes are levied by taxation. And taxes are paid because the taxpayers are afraid of offering resistance to the tax gatherers. They know that any disobedience or resistance is hopeless. As long as this is the state of affairs, the government is able to collect the money that it wants to spend.

Thousands of Years Later, Price Controls Are Still a Bad Idea

![](https://m.stacker.news/47741)
By Jonathan Newman
> In 301 AD, Roman emperor Diocletian implemented price ceilings on over 1,200 goods. His edict shows that not much has changed regarding the politics and economics of price controls.
![](https://m.stacker.news/47742)
Lactantius, a philosopher, wrote about the effects of Diocletian’s edict a few years later:
> While Diocletian, that author of ill, and deviser of misery, was ruining all things, he could not withhold his insults, not even against God. This man, by avarice partly, and partly by timid counsels, overturned the Roman empire. […]
> He also, when by various extortions he had made all things exceedingly dear, attempted by an ordinance to limit their prices. Then much blood was shed for the veriest trifles; men were afraid to expose aught to sale, and the scarcity became more excessive and grievous than ever, until, in the end, the ordinance, after having proved destructive to multitudes, was from mere necessity abrogated.

New Minimum Wage Increase in Nigeria is a Pyrrhic Victory for Organized Labor
https://mises.org/mises-wire/new-minimum-wage-increase-nigeria-pyrrhic-victory-organized-labor
![](https://m.stacker.news/47740)
By Michael Njoku
> The Nigerian government has passed a new minimum wage law, and the usual suspects are happy because the country "is getting a raise." Economic reality, however, will set in soon enough.
Rothbard:
> Compulsory unemployment is achieved indirectly through minimum wage laws. On the free market, everyone’s wage tends to be set at his discounted marginal value productivity. A minimum wage law means that those whose DMVP is below the legal minimum are prevented from working. The worker was willing to take the job, and the employer to hire him. But the decree of the State prevents this hiring from taking place. (italics in original)
Mises:
> The sacrifice that a man or a group makes in renouncing some short-run gains, lest they endanger the peaceful operation of the apparatus of social cooperation, is merely temporary. It amounts to an abandonment of a small immediate profit for the sake of incomparably greater advantages in the long run.

10 Planks of Communism
https://ia802800.us.archive.org/20/items/TenPlanks/TheTenPlanks.pdf
There's a lot of discussion right now about whether various politicians are actually communists or not. How should that be adjudicated? A reasonable place to start might be comparing their views with those of the Communist Manifesto.
For reference, these are the famous planks of communist revolution:
1. Abolition of Property in Land and Application of all Rents of Land to Public Purpose.
2. A Heavy Progressive or Graduated Income Tax.
3. Abolition of All Rights of Inheritance.
4. Confiscation of the Property of All Emigrants and Rebels.
5. Centralization of Credit in the Hands of the State, by Means of a National Bank with State Capital and an Exclusive Monopoly.
6. Centralization of the Means of Communication and Transport in the Hands of the State.
7. Extension of Factories and Instruments of Production Owned by the State, the Bringing Into Cultivation of Waste Lands, and the Improvement of the Soil Generally in Accordance with a Common Plan.
8. Equal Liability of All to Labor. Establishment of Industrial Armies, Especially for Agriculture.
9. Combination of Agriculture with Manufacturing Industries; Gradual Abolition of the Distinction Between Town and Country by a More Equable Distribution of the Population over the Country.
10. Free Education for All Children in Public Schools. Abolition of Children's Factory Labor in it's Present Form. Combination of Education with Industrial Production.
I don't think any prominent American politician scores above 4/10 on this. The more accurate term for American politicians is "fascist". They generally seek to exercise power through pressuring the private sector to do the state's bidding.
