Annually, friend-of-the-site David Collum writes a detailed “Year in Review” synopsis full of keen perspective and plenty of wit. He strikes again in his usually poignant and delightfully acerbic way. As with past years, he selected Peak Prosperity as the site where it is published in full. It is longer than our usual posts, but…

Fifth Generation Warfare (5GW) is where state actors use all of their exceptionally potent tools of persuasion to control the narrative and install new cognitive biases by hacking our wiring and leveraging our pre-existing beliefs, biases and judgments.  Sound like some dystopian SciFi movie?  It does, but it’s also the current reality. Welcome to the…

The defense of child porn, deadly medical advice and more…all controlled by individuals who don’t care about you. And yet, we elect them, invest in them, and use their products. Chris has a problem with that.

Why The Windfall Oil Tax Will Backfire
by Chris Martenson

Those greedy oil companies! Time to tax them good and hard! The only problem with this view is it is so short-sighted and unsophisticated it will actually produce the exact opposite of what it (supposedly) intends. So, get ready for a future of lower oil supplies and higher prices along with related economic harms that…

This week, it was the European Central Bank’s turn to raise rates, this time by 75 basis points to yield a massive 1.5% for deposits.  Just kidding about the massive part. The ECB has a lot of rate-increasing to do to catch up with the Fed, but the currency moves this week seemed to hint…

I love the considerations that the article had above and thought I would add a few things that I have considered for our situation. My...
