Isn’t it nice to begin your day with a dose of cheery optimism?
Excuse me. I distinctly remember someone saying we’re not going to make it. I think we made it. I’m sorry, I overreacted. At the time, it looked very much like we weren’t going to make it. Yes, well, maybe next time you’ll just wait and see. And blow the last chance I might ever have …

Julian Assange
tl;dr, I know. I feel I should state my position up front. I think that Wikileaks performs a valuable service which is fully covered by all the protection the First Amendment offers. I think that Julian Assange is a hero for helping to initiate it and the allegations against him by the Swedes unfounded and …

An Embarrassment Of Lies
PragerU, Candace Owens, and Cody testifies before Congress in the body of a young Black woman from Connecticut by warging ala Bran Stark and the Night King. C’mon people, I only have 5 more weeks to work off my Game of Thrones trivia.

The Modern Monetary Theory Wave
Frankly when I started highlighting it and writing about some of the core concepts it was because I thought it was hip and edgy. I certainly never expected it to find such wide acceptance so soon. Understanding Fiat Money is easy if you have a background in Keynesian Economics. Some still dismiss it (looking at …
