Americans’ greatest fear: government
Our masters in government continuously tell us to trust the state and accept more government power and authority. The message is not getting out, however. Another poll shows that when Americans are asked about their greatest fears, THEY PUT GOVERNMENT CORRUPTION AT THE TOP. See here.

Free market writings increasingly censored as “hate speech” by internet filters
Increasingly businesses and libraries are contracting with companies that provide internet filters for internet users. The filters are sold with claims that they weed out porn and hate speech. Increasingly, it seems that such filters classify free market writings as ‘hate speech.’ See here: articles by Rothbard are being blocked by my work’s internet security …

Bank of America issues recession warning
Today every country on earth utilizes central banking to produce its currency. No currency on earth is backed by gold, silver or any other precious metal or commodity.

U.S. government spends 1.5 billion dollars ANNUALLY on public relations
Barack Obama became president of the United States in 2008 with the support of about $2 billion. (Because the presidential election is a two-year cycle, this means that the cost of promoting Obama to the Presidency was approximately $1 billion annually.) Campaign finance “reformers” routinely decry “money in politics” and push for government controls on …

Now there is a report that Hillary Clinton, as U.S. Secretary of State, thought seriously about killing Julian Assange (founder of the website Wikilieaks, which has exposed massive government corruption) by a drone …

Government appears to be helping cover up the risks of donating kidneys
Interesting (and courageous) essay by medical student Michael Poulson in the Washington Post. At age 18, Poulson donated a kidney. Like almost everything in American life, organ donation is overregulated by the government. The government imposes a ‘list’ system and criminalizes any selling of organs or other profit-potential ventures which might unleash innovation. And, it …
