In a new study that offers answers about the negative effects – but avoids the inverted ethics -- of Universal Basic Income, researchers at Harvard University and the University of Exeter (UK) actually present readers with one big, umbrella question: “You needed a study to figure this out?”
Entitled, “How Effective Is (More) Money? Randomizing Unconditional Cash Transfer (UCT) Amounts in the US…
As government systems and government-influenced systems increasingly break down and reveal their predatory, special-favor, immoral and inefficient gangland nature, creative people are starting to do the jobs themselves, and they’re getting things done without – shock! – forcing other people to pay for the things they want.
Case in point, the increasing number of reports about Oakland, California…
From the fall of the Roman Empire to Mao’s Cultural Revolution and FDR’s insane and cronyist “New Deal,” central-planning has been shown to be both immoral and economically disastrous.
But politicians measure success differently than we do. For them, it seems that success is about increasing control and influence.
And the U.S. Senate offers us a new example of this pathology, in the form…
Hey! Ya know how the competitive market, based on respect for private property and private contracts that are not supposed to be infringed by government, has helped increase food productivity to such an extent that billions of people have been saved from starvation and U.S. agricultural output nearly tripled between 1948 and 2017?
Ya know how eastern states such as New Hampshire, the one in…
A recent Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruling sheds light on how a media-lauded arm of Leviathan continues to swing its suckers, despite a separate 2020 Supreme Court of the US (SCOTUS) finding that this bureau’s Director was too insulated from removal and represented an unconstitutional violation of the separation of powers doctrine.

On June 13, I reported for MRCTV that Congressman Don Beyer (D-VA) was floating the idea of a 1,000-percent tax on so-called “assault rifles” – an idea that faux “American Indian” Sen. Liz Warren said she could get behind (despite disarmed Indians being slaughtered by the U.S. government at places like Wounded Knee, SD).
Now, we have a follow-up, and some media-related “wrinkles” to…
Imagine you are the protagonist of a detective story, the kind that sees you standing above heaps of dirty coffee mugs, and before a wall chock-full of photos, thumbtacks, notes, government and corporate logos, and yarn connections between the baddies and their plots.
That’s what it’s like covering the “Anthropogenic Climate Change” cult and the ceaseless revelations of their crazy, coercive…
You know how the U.S. Constitution specifically enumerates the so-called “powers” granted to the federal government, and the Tenth Amendment also expressly prohibits the feds from doing anything not enumerated?
And, you know how the Constitution also grants the U.S. Congress the power to coin money, and, though it does not claim that the Congress can coin the only money, it explicitly states…
Culminating decades of international corporatism and bailouts, of fascist government “grants” and “public-private partnerships,” of “regulation” and regulatory capture, of pretend money created by the government-established Federal Reserve, and stack upon stack of bureaucratic offices piled as high as the Tower of Babel, people worldwide are ringing alarm bells over the newest push to…
If you’re looking for a charming tale of central planning and the unethical act of telling others to pay for their own so-called “protection” to be provided by the shakedown organization of the government, this might be the story you’re seeking.
UK Telegraph Crime Correspondent Martin Evans reports that the great utopian political plan to flood the English and Welsh police car fleet with…
