“Climate Change” Is A Hoax

“Climate Change” Is A Hoax

I hate science, evidently, because I’m woke to the manifest truth about what the leftist elite currently calls “climate change.” It is the second most staggering fraud ever perpetrated upon the American people after the media’s promotion of the unstoppable candidacy of Beto (who is a furry). Like some suckers still do, I once believed that “science” was a rigorous process where you tested theories and revised those theories in response to objective evidence. But in today’s shabby practice, “science” is just a package of self-serving lies buttressing the transnational liberal elite’s preferred narrative. Our alleged betters hope that labeling their propaganda “science” will science-shame you into silence about what everyone knows is a scam.

Visualizing The $86 Trillion World Economy In One Chart

Via ZeroHedge

The world economy is in a never-ending state of flux.

The fact is that, as Visual Cpiatlists’ Jeff Desjardins notes, billions of variables – both big and small – factor into any calculation of overall economic productivity, and these inputs are changing all of the time.

Buying this week’s groceries or filling up your car with gas may seem like a rounding error when we are talking about trillions of dollars, but every microeconomic decision or set of preferences can add up in aggregate.

And as consumer preferences, technology, trade relationships, interest rates, and currency valuations change — so does the final composition of the world’s $86 trillion economy.

Mauldin: 2020 Will Be The Most Volatile Year In History

Authored by John Mauldin via MauldinEconomics.com,

The last few weeks marked a turning point in the global economy.

It’s more than the trade war. A sense of vulnerability is replacing the previous confidence – and with good reason.

We are vulnerable, and we’ll be lucky to get through the 2020s without major damage.

Let’s talk about the risks facing us in the next year or so and the economic environment in which we will face those risks.

We survived the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s . #GetBent Millennials

TO ALL MY FRIENDS WHO SURVIVED THE 50’s,60’s and 70’s

Some interesting thoughts on life today compared to our growing up years. Thanks to my friend Joe V. for much of this content.

First, we all survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they were pregnant. They took aspirin, drank wine, and ate all kinds of sweets and unhealthy foods(by today’s standards), and didn’t ever need to get tested for diabetes.

Then after that trauma, we were put to sleep on our tummies in baby cribs covered with lead-based paints and bars wide enough to fit our heads through. We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, no childproofing of doors or cabinets. There weren’t any safety plugs in the electric outlets and some of us learned the hard way, not to stick scissors, knives, or forks into them.

BACK CRACKER

I’ve had periodic back issues ever since I reached the age of forty. Fourteen years ago I started having pain in my back and it radiated down my arm and produced numbness in my index finger. I went to my family doctor and the diagnosis was a bulging disc. I went to physical therapy for a few weeks and did some neck exercises for a couple months. That resolved the issue for quite a long time.

How “Unschooling” Can Benefit your child and the world

Via The Daily Bell

How could trust revolutionize education?

Peter Gray defines unschooling in his book Free to Learn, as “the category of home-based education most compatible with trustful parenting.”  In this way, the parent is placing trust in the abilities and instincts of the child instead of allowing outside authorities to dictate what, where, when and how to learn.

Unschooling is a child-led, deadline-free and respect-centered method of parenting.

Mnuchin’s Treasury Eyes 100-Year Debt, And It Means This For You

Via Birch Gold

When financial experts talk about the U.S. national debt, do your eyes glaze over? You may want to drink some coffee and pay attention, since the consequences of the national debt are unavoidable for investors. (You can ignore politics, but the government’s economic policies won’t ignore you.)

A new “debt solution” is being seriously considered by the government. Before we get to that, let’s wrap our heads around the debt crisis that is prompting this new economic idea that some think could help keep the economy on track.

100 Years Ago Today, This Was The World’s Most Disruptive Technology

Submitted by Nick Colas of DataTrek Research

The history of US consumerism starts with the Sears Roebuck mail order catalog. Yes, the very same Sears that is struggling to emerge from bankruptcy today. But 125 years ago the company was every bit the disruptive innovator. A brief summary of how that happened:

  • Mail order became viable in the late 1800s because of the expansion of the US rail system, post office regulations that allowed for catalog mailers at 1 cent/pound, and Rural Free Delivery.
  • The first Sears catalog was published in 1894 with the slogan “The Cheapest Supply House on Earth”.
  • Its target audience was rural America, which in 1900 was 60% of the US population. This was a deeply underserved community, often with just a thinly stocked general store to supply all their needs.

Webb: How The CIA, Mossad, & “The Epstein Network” Are Exploiting Mass Shootings To Create An Orwellian Nightmare

Authored by Whitney Webb via MintPressNews.com,

Following the arrest and subsequent death in prison of alleged child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, a little-known Israeli tech company began to receive increased publicity, but for all the wrong reasons. Not long after Epstein’s arrest, and his relationships and finances came under scrutiny, it was revealed that the Israeli company Carbyne911 had received substantial funding from Jeffrey Epstein as well as Epstein’s close associate and former Prime Minister of Israel Ehud Barak, and Silicon Valley venture capitalist and prominent Trump backer Peter Thiel.

Carbyne911, or simply Carbyne, develops call-handling and identification capabilities for emergency response services in countries around the world, including the United States, where it has already been implemented in several U.S. counties and has partnered with major U.S. tech companies like Google. It specifically markets its product as a way of mitigating mass shootings in the United States without having to change existing U.S. gun laws.
