Political analysis is often pointless, given the utter dishonesty with which politicians spew nonsense, especially during an election year.

Why the Crony Class Loves Artificially-Low Interest Rates—And Why You Shouldn’t

by

2024-08-29

In our bureaucratically-managed economy, financial prosperity increasingly depends on how close one can position himself to the dissemination of newly-created money. Understanding this critically means identifying the link between this “prosperity” and newly-created money. Since creating money from nothing can’t possibly be productive, or enhance wealth in any real way, there is no direct link to prosperity. The connection must be indirect, and...

Socialists and other leftwingers support taxation of the income and wealth of the well off. They say that they want to promote “equality” and “social justice,” but in fact they are motivated by envy. They want what others have. They can’t stand the thought of other people’s having more money than they do.Here is what Rob Larson, an economics professor at Tacoma Community College, says about certain very expensive apartments: “Besides the return of...
