Covid: The New, “New Deal” Revisionism Is Already Starting
As a history teacher and an economist, it never ceases to amaze me at the success of certain historical myths (in this case, defined as verifiably untrue beliefs) have come to dominate popular understanding. Often it seems that no presentation of facts to the contrary of such myths are sufficient to dislodge them.Perhaps one of the most stubborn myths—and other myths related to it—is that Roosevelt’s New Deal policies brought about economic...

Too Obvious to See?
The Trump-Musk assassination troops going through the federal bureaucracy will eventually arrive at an oddball entity called the Federal Reserve. It is and isn’t many things, which if confusion is your sport, is part of its charm.It is an “inflation fighter” whose main purpose is creating inflation. On rare occasions a Fed member or even the Chairman will state in plain language what the Federal Reserve does—“print money”—but most people seem to...

Friedman Reacts to Your Comments: Putin’s Weakness, Trump’s Strategy, and NATO’s Future
Renowned forecaster George Friedman is back to respond to your comments. Over half a million viewers watched my last interview with George shortly after the US and Russia began settlement discussions about Ukraine. This sparked an animated discussion in the comments section over President Trump’s plan to redesign global trade, whether Putin is really losing in Ukraine, and who (if anyone) George voted for.
Today George, the founder of Geopolitical...

Empire as the Price of Bureaucracy
William F. Buckley, Jr. wrote in 1952, “We have to accept Big Government for the duration [of the Cold War]—for neither an offensive nor a defensive war can be waged . . . except through the instrument of a totalitarian bureaucracy within our shores.” Since, the conservative establishment has sacrificed the nation at the altar of defeating the latest boogeyman abroad. They have accepted bureaucracy in place of markets, technocracy in place of...

Who Gets the Blame for the Upcoming Recession?
Over the weekend, President Trump made headlines for refusing, on two occasions, to rule out the possibility that the US will experience a recession this year. The comments came days after the Atlanta Fed announced it now projects GDP to fall by nearly three percent in the first quarter of this year.Those developments, paired with the recent stock market decline set off by the market’s reaction to Trump’s tariff plans, have many political opponents...

Are Economic Progress and Cultural Values Mutually Exclusive?
Economic progress is sometimes seen as inimical to the bonds of “family, faith, and flag” that many people value. Many place such a high priority on their way of life within their own neighborhoods or communities, that losing their traditional cultural values in exchange for economic progress may not be a price they would wish to pay. This is poignantly expressed by John Slaughter, in his article “How Does it Profit the South,” as “a tinge of...

Spending Cuts Won’t Weaken the US Economy. They Will Strengthen It.
The Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta’s GDPNow model projection for real GDP growth in the first quarter of 2025 (Q1 2025) is now showing a slump to -1.5 percent. This marks a significant downward revision from the previous estimate of 2.3 percent on February 19, 2025.Such an enormous decline is strange. How did we go from +2.3 percent to -1.5 percent in less than a month? That kind of collapse in an economy as large as the United States is...

Foreign Aid, Reparations, and Economic Growth
David Lammy, the UK’s Foreign Secretary, has lent his voice to the growing call for reparations for former colonies in the British West Indies. Advocates argue that financial compensation would provide a much-needed economic boost to these nations, helping them overcome the burden of low economic growth. However, this view is fundamentally flawed. Akin to foreign aid, reparations are unlikely to catalyze genuine economic development. Decades of...

Five Years Later, We Remember How Politicians Unleashed Covid Tyranny
Five years ago, politicians and bureaucrats went berserk and pointlessly ravaged Americans’ freedom. The Covid-19 pandemic provided the pretext to destroy hundreds of thousands of businesses, padlock churches, close down schools, and effectively place hundreds of millions of Americans under house arrest. Despite all the forced sacrifices, most Americans contracted covid and more than a million were listed as dying from the virus.“Pandemic Security...
