Quotes of the Week

Enlightened insights taken from the past week’s reading:

"The most egregious lie on display during the whole impeachment drama is the lie that Schiff, Schumer, Pelosi, Nadler, and the other Bolsheviks masquerading as 'Democrats' are champions of constitutionalism and the rule of law.  This is exactly the opposite of reality, and anyone with a brain should know it.  Raw, arbitrary, unchallenged political power is what motivates every fiber in their totalitarian beings, and they hate Trump because he imposed a tiny roadblock on their road to totalitarianism.  The whole purpose of the so-called rule of law has for centuries been to deter just such behavior.  Getting Trump out of office will lead to more arbitrary rule and less rule of law, not more.  These are people, after all, who wanted to coronate Hillary Clinton as Queen of America.  The notion that impeaching and convicting Trump promotes the rule of law is a farce and an absurdity."
Tom DiLorenzo

"[I]n order to advance their egalitarian utopia (or rather dystopia), every human characteristic, condition and institution smacking of difference and inequality, then, has been taken under attack by the Left in due course.  Down with human excellence and all ranks of human achievement, because no person is to be more excellent than any other.  Down with private property as it implies the distinction between mine and thine and thus renders everyone unequal. Down with all income differences.  Down with the family as citadel of inequality, with a male father and a female mother and their common, young and dependent children.  Down in particular with men and especially white men as the most unequal people of all.  Down with marriage because of its exclusivity, and down with heterosexuality.  Down with discrimination and individual preferences of and for one person over another.  Down with free association and disassociation.  Down with all covenants, and down with any and all borders, fortifications or walls separating one person from another.  Down with exclusive, bi- or multi-lateral private contracts.  Down with employers and landlords as unequal and different from employees and renters, and down with the division of labor in general.  Down with the biblical notion that man is to rule and be the master of nature and rank above all animals and plants — and always down with everyone dissenting from the egalitarian leftist creed."
Hans-Hermann Hoppe

"Ronald Reagan is quoted freedom and democracy will leave Marxism and Leninism on the ash heap of history'.
It now appears that socialism/communism is attempting to leave democratic republicanism on the ash heap of history.
However, life and freedom are natural, intense, linked, uncontrollable and countervailing forces to socialism/communism. There is no life, human or not, without freedom and freedom is integral to life. Socialism, communism and democratic republicanism are not forces of life and not forces of freedom. They are forces of oppression and death. They are forces of collectivism, which means that the 'group' has political and social priority over the individual. But this invariably means the power of some individuals over other individuals.
With the extinction of these political philosophies that kill life, freedom will be the only life-giving philosophy left. If there is not to be human misery, death and extinction, freedom has to and will leave socialism/communism in all forms including democratic republicanism on the ash heap of history."
Michael Rozeff

"As history has shown us, it is always the elites that end up in the position of deciding the fates of millions or billions. From the Rockefeller Foundation sterilization programs in the U.S. in the early 1900s to the U.N. today, the globalists, a veritable death cult, are desperate to conjure a rationalization as to why they should be the ones to allow or deny human life based on lies like man-made climate change. My theory — they are psychopaths looking for a socially justifiable way to kill as many people as possible. Why? Because they enjoy it."
Brandon Smith

"The one big promise the state system and its ideology, archism, make is order but all these competing states and proto-states have produced is chaos, violence and disorder.  Worse yet, they learn nothing; their mindset never changes and they continue to use the same strategies, methodologies and tactics that have failed them so far.  They do not and will not, as our late father often advised when we acted up, 'meditate on the virtues of peace'."
James and Michael Ostrowski

"The mainstream media is virtually worthless as a guide to investment.
It is preoccupied with a bankrupt Keynesian economic theory, an ingenious campaign to blame conservatives for bad weather, and endless rotation of the kaleidoscopes of social issues."
George Gilder

"When George Washington said, 'government is force,' he meant that government is force against its own people.
Since by definition government is force, then it follows that government will use any ruse imaginable to increase its power. Increased use of government force or power could backfire unless skillfully handled and justified in the public mind. Therefore, governments rarely take action unless accompanied by skillful propaganda."
Bob Livingston

"The Deep State is not a homogenous or centrally controlled organization. It is not a conspiracy of spooks, meeting in secret and plotting a takeover of the country. Instead, it includes hundreds of thousands of people who already run the country.
It is a loose and tacit alliance of cronies, politicians, bureaucrats, consultants, experts, economists, lobbyists, the press, professors, the whole medical care complex, and the military and its contractors.
There are so many mansions in this house, the walls bulge and the nails pop. And the people who live in them have many different competing interests. But they have one single overriding common agenda – to shift power, status, and wealth from the public to themselves.
That is what makes them different from you and us: They can get richer only by making us poorer. And that, and only that, is the reason federal spending, debt, and fake money go in only one direction – up."
Bill Bonner

"The idea of democracy is an anachronism, at best. The US has mutated into a domestic multicultural empire. The average person has been propagandized into believing that it’s patriotic to do as he’s told. 'We need libraries of regulations, and I’m happy to pay my taxes. It’s the price we pay for civilization.' No, that’s just the opposite of the fact. Those things are signs that civilization is degrading, that the members of society are becoming less individually responsible. And therefore that the country has to be held together by force.
It’s all about control. Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. The type of people that gravitate to government like to control other people. Contrary to what we’re told to think, that’s why the worst people – not the best – want to get into government."
Doug Casey

"If Washington, D.C. were held to biblical standards, it would be an ash heap.
We should stop pretending there’s virtue on one side of this enterprise and evil on the other and accept the reality that two things can be true at once."
Nolan Finley

"It’s not uncommon to hear language that suggests anti-trans discourse constitutes harm—and perhaps even violence—against trans people—for instance, that certain expressions 'invalidate,' 'delegitimize,' or 'erase' trans people. I find it hard to see how any kind of discourse can constitute harm, let alone violence, against any group apart from how it affects people psychologically. Calling arguments 'harmful' or 'violent' are plausibly examples of what I’ve called 'concept inflation'."
Bill Buppert

"Success has a funny way of building someone’s confidence and independence. When you work hard and become successful, you begin to see yourself achieving even more. 
But Bolshevik politicians depend on their supporters seeing themselves as victims, not as champions. 
Their power comes from keeping people angry, afraid, and downtrodden. 
So they’ll never aim to close the wealth gap by helping poor people become successful."
Simon Black

"One look around will expose the results of this societal disaster called democracy. We live in a society of victims, each group a minority within the whole of a communal mess. This is just one of the reasons that the electoral practices of the political system in which we live are so worthless and destructive of sanity. There are those of intellect who oppose this system, but they are a vast minority outcast by the mob. They are marginalized, cursed, threatened, and silenced, all due to the indoctrinated ignorance of the herd, and the masters they follow.
The collective group that makes up the majority relies on false worship of the state, thus the common attitude is one of allegiance, which is 'the loyalty of a citizen to his or her government or of a subject to his or her sovereign.' This is religious in nature, and simply results in a compliant society under the control of the few. When most of any society falls to this level, all freedom has already disappeared, and this is exactly what democracy is meant to achieve. It is now the current state of affairs in this country, and only a monumental effort could alter the course we are on today.
In a system such as this, integrity is replaced by mediocrity, courage is replaced by cowardice, intelligence is replaced by ignorance, and compassion is replaced by indifference. This leaves only a road to perdition."
Gary D. Barnett

They even get housing subsidies…

Regime Gangsters Give Amnesty to 4000 Border Invading Liberians

Liberia used to be a place where freed, American blacks could go to escape The Evil White Man. I guess North America wasn’t so bad, after all. Maybe they were attracted by the increasing number of communists residing in the US Collective.

Regime Goons Have No Desire to End Their Illegal,Murderous Occupation of Syria

Regime Dismisses Exposure of Their Lies Regarding Afghanistan

Instead, they prefer to “look forward” to discover new and better ways to lie and kill.

Why remain a suffering subject? Why do you need a “US?”

Secession, anyone?

Quotes of the Week

Enlightened insights taken from the past week’s reading:

"Justice is always naive and self-confident; believing that it will immediately win once recognized. That is the reason why the forces of Justice are so poorly organized. On the other hand, the Evil is cynic, sly and fantastically organized. It never ever has the illusion of the ability to stand on its own feet and to win in a fair competition. That is why it is ready to use any kind of means without hesitation. And of course it does - under the banners of the most noble ideas.
I should like to underline: no people, no country, in which a Communist dictatorship has been established, ever found its way out of it.
"The dream of socialists, the Maximum Programme, has always been to eliminate the private property, the family and the nation state. With the private property they have not succeeded, but they continue on the path of destruction of the family and the nation.'
This power, this authority, Soviet power: they killed everybody who could make any resistance, who could explain his own way of thinking and who could follow his own way of thinking, of believing.
This dream of absolute, universal equality is amazing, terrifying, and inhuman. And the moment it captures people's minds, the result is mountains of corpses and rivers of blood."
Vladimir Bukovsky

"Whenever I hear that our military is fighting wars in the Middle East 'to protect our freedoms,' I have to shake my head. If the military has been fighting 'to protect our freedoms,' then why are our 
freedoms' being eroded away like a beach in a hurricane? Perhaps it is not Moslem terrorists who are a danger to our 'freedoms,' but our own politicians and unelected bureaucrats.
The U.S. establishment has created a confusion of cause and effect by and through a flag-waving mania in America. 'Patriotism' throughout history has covered a multitude of mischief. We are seeing it now!"
Bob Livingston

"It was only toward the middle of the twentieth century that the inhabitants of many European countries came, in general unpleasantly, to the realization that their fate could be influenced directly by intricate and abstruse books of philosophy. Their bread, their work, their private lives began to depend on this or that decision in disputes on principles to which, until then, they had never paid any attention. In their eyes, the philosopher had always been a sort of dreamer whose divigations had no effect on reality. The average human being, even if he had once been exposed to it, wrote philosophy off as utterly impractical and useless. therefore the great intellectual work of the Marxists could easily pass as just one more variation on a sterile pastime. Only a few individuals understood the causes and probably consequences of this general indifference."
 Czeslaw Milosz

"The argument can be made that the largest criminal entity today is not some Colombian cocaine gang, but the US Government. And they’re far more dangerous. They have a legal monopoly on the force to do anything they want with you. Don’t conflate the government with America; they’re different and separate entities. The US Government has its own interests, as distinct as those of General Motors or the Mafia. In fact, I’d probably rather deal with the Mafia than I would with any agency of the US Government.
Even under the worst circumstances – even if the Mafia controlled the United States – I don’t believe Tony Soprano or Al Capone would try to steal 40% of people’s income every year. They couldn’t get away with it. But – because we’re said to be a democracy – the US Government is able to masquerade as 'We the People,' and pull it off."
Doug Casey

"If a government official spends inordinate sums on vacations and luxuries, or is exposed for being on the take, be assured that the person’s political opponents will be all over the story. Meanwhile, the inherent corruption of the system itself, with its systematic expropriation and redistribution, is ignored. But that is by far the more important story, and it’s the only one that really deserves our attention."
Lew Rockwell

"While it may be disturbing for most to face stark realities, there is a lower order of men among us, and they make up the bulk of society. I do not believe this to be arguable, nor do I use this knowledge as an excuse to discount the importance of the makeup of societies. There are obvious differences in people, and those differences can be subtle or severe, but in the end, few are enlightened. One factor that stands out among the masses is that the most important matters are decided by emotion, with fear as the driving force behind decision-making. This type of behavior breeds dependence, and is a recipe for the acceptance of control. When the majority lives with this attitude, freedom cannot exist.
This gives rise to the concept of popular will, and when the majority is relegated to decisions based on fear, emotion, envy, and safety, society as a whole is left with confusion, apathy, and tyrannical rule. This leads to despair, division, and chaos. This is where we are today in America."
Gary D. Barnett

"If Americans feel that country x is being bullied or threatened by country y, then let them, of their own accord, individually or with the help of other like-minded people, send them military aid. If country x is seeking American aid to help it fight against country y, then let it advertise its desire on television, radio, online, or via direct mail. No American should be forced by his government to give aid to any country. If any American cares which flag will be hoisted on a small piece of land thousands of miles away, then let him put his money where his mouth is. All foreign aid should be private and voluntary, military or otherwise."
Laurence Vance

"If a war is fought, it must be over a concrete set of contentions. If a Democrat enters the White House after the 2020 election and attempts to institute major gun control and gun confiscation measures, then this is a perfectly solid reason to fight. If they try to enforce carbon restrictions that would destroy what's left of our economy and cause suffering among the public, then this is another good reason to fight. If they try to legislate even more socialist programs, usurping constitutional parameters and taxing the populace into perpetual poverty, then yes, we should fight. But Trump? No, Trump is a pied piper, not a leader or a rationale for civil war."
Brandon Smith

"Communism is a human software virus based on greed, envy and a conviction that Darwinian violence is the sole arbiter of how human societies are regulated. Like all such economically illiterate and morally depraved creeds, they fail.
They always fail; hence, it must spread to the next victim-host to be devoured, driven into the stone-age and stack piles of corpses.
Rinse and repeat."
Bill Buppert

“War, is harmful, not only to the conquered but to the conqueror. Society has arisen out of the works of peace; the essence of society is peacemaking. Peace and not war is the father of all things. Only economic action has created the wealth around us; labor, not the profession of arms, brings happiness. Peace builds; war destroys."
Ludwig von Mises

"Chaos makes it difficult to either predict the future or explain the past. My mind is strange: it insists upon factual evidence and sound reasoning before coming to conclusions. Even then, these conclusions are subject to change with additional evidence and/or rational explanation. I have a vested interest in my opinions being as consistent as possible with the complicated patterns the universe presents me, and I find that a clearly functioning mind is the best means for accomplishing this. I do not find opinion polls – where people share their ignorance – nor threats of punishment, nor the opinions of a goat-herd who claims predictive powers from squeezing the testicles of one of her goats, sufficient bases for thinking and acting as I do."
Butler Shaffer

They’re going after states who disallow voters who are criminal, border invading, looting parasites that tend to vote for the above-mentioned Bolsheviks.

Has this woman ever apologized for her voluntary participation in this particular war crime?

Regime Clown-in-Gown Halts Spending on Border Wall

He says such money cannot be “diverted” for such uses- meaning that protecting the border from invasion is not a function of “national defense.”

But invading and occupying other countries is?

Regime Gangsters will never voluntarily limit the flow of money. The only way to accomplish that is to cut off Tax Teat that feeds their criminal activity.

Of course, if they try this in Texas, they’ll be turned into road kill.

Why remain a suffering subject? Why do you need a “US?”

Secession, anyone?

Quotes of the Week

Enlightened insights taken from the past week’s reading:

"Obama can disdain the people for their 'guns and Bibles' and Hillary Clinton, like Alexander Hamilton, can describe the people as 'deplorables.'  In a genuine government of the people both of these characters would be sent down in shame for insulting 'the people.'   Instead, they gather the votes of a majority of the electorate.    How can this happen?   I offer a possible explanation.  The American educational system has turned out millions of pseudo-intellectuals, people with no particular intelligence or learning and who have no real power but who think that because they share the egalitarian scripture that they are therefore members of the elite and superior to those deplorables."
Clyde Wilson

"The usual suspects among the communist chattering classes are now pivoting to a new mass advertisement campaign to attract apparatchiks to their serial killer ideology by painting every white human a white supremacist. While I think that government supremacists have done far more damage to earthlings, I look forward to seeing the unintended consequences and a mirror image of the very radicalization they so admire in their Antifa pets.
Keep pushing, collectivists.
Newton’s Third Law is a motherfucker.
They say the collectivists can’t meme and one reason is their complete blindness to the irony of their creed. Individualism is the enemy of government supremacist creeds because the individual isn’t valued in the hive mind. It is merely mortar for the foundations and walls of the leviathan state. A human competent to be bent to the will of the violence broker class and its sycophants on pain of death depending on the resistance to state authority."
Bill Buppert

"China is NOT on board with this nonsense of climate change caused by humans. The South China Morning Post has reported that their scientists have traced their civilization and its rise and fall to the energy output of the sun. Simply put, when the climate warms, civilization flourishes. When it turns cold, we isolate ourselves and civilization contracts.
China will take up the crown of the financial capital of the world because the West is just going insane with socialism and using climate as the excuse to seize power and wealth.
I have stated many times that when it is beneficial to come together, civilization expands because there is a synergy that rises that is greater than the sum of the parts. When civilization becomes corrupt and it feeds upon one class for the benefit of another, the very PURPOSE of coming together no longer makes sense and you witness this throughout separatists movements, revolutions, and civil war."
Martin Armstrong

"I hate to sound defeatist, but it’s all over for what was once known as American civilization. The celebrity of AOC is indicative. How else could a 29-year-old Puerto Rican waitress, poorly educated and not very bright, set the political tone for the whole country?"
Doug Casey

"We the People will occasionally dispatch a Ron Paul to Washington, it is true.
But for every Ron Paul, we install two dozen spendthrifts… six dozen profligates… a hundred wastrels.
Comes the standard counterblast:
'We simply have to elect better people — that is the answer. We deserve better. But the entire system is corrupt. We must work to change it.'
Here we have the immemorial cry of the true believer, the babe in the woods.
And it will likely remain the immemorial cry of the true believer, the babe in the woods — until the end of the chapter."
Brian Maher

"Gun ownership is as integral to a free society as free speech and property rights. Without firearms ownership, the public is at the mercy of any criminal or criminal government that seeks to oppress them. Remember, if your AR-15 was not a threat to the elites, then they would not be constantly seeking to take it away. Never let it go."
Bob Livingston

"Freedom cannot be boiled down to a dream or a wish; something that might happen someday if we are able to stay alive long enough. Freedom is a responsibility that is already born into most human beings. It's not a cheesy ideal, it's a timeless ideal. Freedom and the fight for peace and balance in the face of would-be emperors is an infinite battle. It never ends. The fight is freedom. Without the fight, freedom disappears.
For each person that defies collectivists and totalitarians, even at the risk of their own life, the shadow is held back another day. This is what matters, and this is what the survival purists don't get. You have to make yourself worthy of surviving, by standing for principles and values that are bigger than you are. Otherwise you're not worth a damn to anyone, even yourself."
Brandon Smith

"Most believe that all men seek and desire liberty, but could anything be more inaccurate? I would posit that mankind in general has never been satisfied or content with freedom. In truth, the opposite is the case, as the common man fears freedom more than slavery. The masses are not ever happy with real freedom, as freedom requires intelligence, responsibility, courage, and competence. Given that the human species is only comfortable in the herd, and wants to be coddled instead of being strong, liberty is anathema to natural human desire.
In America, these truths are evident throughout society, and are becoming more evident with each and every generation. Common people seek safety and contentment in the flock, without any eagerness to actually do the work necessary to sustain freedom. In fact, the masses are terrified of being free, and are very uncomfortable with the concept of liberty. It sounds good in theory, but in practice requires intellectual fortitude, courage, an enlightened soul, and wisdom, things that those in the group do not possess."
Gary D. Barnett

"The solution to our ills can be found in the distinction between power and force. 
While force tries to lord over by employing fear, true power inspires. 
Force dehumanizes, treating people like robots, or subjects, to be molded… 
Power humanizes, treating people with dignity, giving them agency. 
Force tries to solve problems using fear. 
Power uses inspiration to pursue foreseen and yet-to-be seen opportunities.
The former is constricting, the latter is expansive.  
And, fortunately, the rationalizations provided by the one-trick-pony called 'force' always crumble at the inspiring sight of power."
Chris Campbell

"The premise of the egalitarianism that drives gender madness and that seeks to tear down the traditional society of fixed morals and families is the existentialist idea that existence precedes essence. But from our freedom to choose does NOT follow the implication that we can DO anything, such as remaking human nature, choosing our sex, having a child choose a gender, building a perfect society, or building a society based upon an egalitarian ideal. Certain essences of human nature and society rule some things out. The society that nonetheless chooses to elevate these things into its guiding ideas, the society that makes these wrong, corrupt, degenerate, unholy and ungodly choices, that society will destroy itself.
Destruction follows from believing that existence precedes essence and then taking the wrong path out of the quandary that such a belief poses."
Michael Rozeff

"The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum — even encourage the more critical and dissident views. That gives people the sense that there’s free thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being reinforced by the limits put on the range of the debate."
Noam Chomsky

"So, facing problems that appear to be created by the state system, politicians, stuck in that 'same level of thinking,' continue to apply the same tool, basically brute force, solving nothing, creating new problems, and all the while being callously oblivious to the consequences.  In their own minds, they all are just doing their duty or 'following orders,' while in reality they are manufacturing corpses, destroying neighborhoods and cities, devastating cultures, communities and religions and forcing the mass movement of peoples.  It is yet another feature of archism that its practitioners can wreak such havoc during the day, doing things that normal human beings not employed by the state consider abhorrent, and sleep like babies at night.  Thus, unfortunately, conscience does not make cowards of archists."
James and Michael Ostrowski

Quotes of the Week

Enlightened insights taken from the past week’s reading:

"What begot modern industrialization and the unprecedented improvement in material conditions that it brought about was neither capital previously accumulated nor previously assembled technological knowledge…. the early pioneers of capitalism started with scanty capital and scanty technological experience. At the outset of industrialization was the philosophy of private enterprise and initiative, and the practical application of this ideology made the capital swell and the technological know-how advance and ripen.
One must stress this point because its neglect misleads the statesmen of all backward nations in their plans for economic improvement. They think that industrialization means machines and textbooks of technology. In fact, it means economic freedom that creates both capital and technological knowledge."
Ludwig von Mises

"The notion that 'the people' have all the power, and are supreme over a government created through elections, is ludicrous on its face. That has never happened in history, and frankly, could not ever come to fruition, regardless of lofty ideology and delirious imagination.
The term democracy is bandied about as if it were a euphoric and magical state sought by all who claim to love freedom. This country after all is thought by the majority to be the greatest bastion of freedom on earth, so is this gross misconception about freedom surprising?"
Gary D. Barnett

"Freedom demands the destruction of the security and surveillance organs and the disempowering of the millions of informants who work for the state. This is not a call to murder our own stoolies — although some of the 2.3 million prisoners in cages in America’s own gulags would perhaps rightly accuse me of writing this from a position of privilege and comfort and not understanding the brutal dynamics of oppression – but instead to accept that unless these informants on the streets, in the prisons and manning our massive, government data-collection centers are disarmed we will never achieve liberty. I do not have quick and simple suggestions for how this is to be accomplished. But I know it must."
Chris Hedges

"The trans- phenomenon has gained plenty of traction in popular media and academia for a variety of reasons, the victimhood card is, of course, de jure and de facto, putting it at the front of the line. The other reason (among many, all root cause analysis discovers many vectors) is yet another assault on masculinity, no matter the destination of the gender dysmorphia even a transition to 'male'; the feminine is always superior to the masculine. The reason is [blood] simple. The masculine impulse will always challenge authority whether government or private, the nature of masculine ambition distilled. This is a partial explanation for the sex deficit of women among libertarians and the all the components ecologies of the anti-state and anti-authoritarian. The dearth of female adherents to anti-statist philosophy may very well be determined by a natural inclination to security and the mistaken perception that only a coercive state can do this.
Hence the media swooning and pearl clutching over the plight and experience of trans folk. One can see that media portrayals of the feminine are shallow, worshipful and tilted in a confirmation bias that favors state violence and aggression to organize society while the media portrayal of men is mostly that of doddering, intellectually stunted sexual predators whose existence is merely guaranteed by female steering and moralizing."
Bill Buppert

"Within an established totalitarian regime the purpose of propaganda is not to persuade, much less to inform, but rather to humiliate. From this point of view, propaganda should not approximate to the truth as closely as possible: on the contrary, it should do as much violence to it as possible. For by endlessly asserting what is patently untrue, by making such untruth ubiquitous and unavoidable, and finally by insisting that everyone publicly acquiesce in it, the regime displays its power and reduces individuals to nullities.
Apart from the massacres, deaths and famines for which communism was responsible, the worst thing about the system was the official lying: that is to say the lying in which everyone was forced to take part, by repetition, assent or failure to contradict. I came to the conclusion that the purpose of propaganda in communist countries was not to persuade, much less to inform, but to humiliate and emasculate.
If you are held responsible for what I do and I held responsible for what you do, does that make us not friends but mutual spies? Normal human bounds are dissolved by collective responsibility, to be repealed by distrust, fear, dissembling and withdrawal.
It is countries with no dissent, which live in the quiet of the grave, that are vulnerable and fragile."
Theodore Dalrymple

"Let us pursue the subversive mission of applying the same moral rules against theft, kidnapping, and murder to our rulers that we apply to everyone else.Our warmakers believe they are exempt from normal moral rules. Because they are at war, they get to suspend all decency, all the norms that govern the conduct and interaction of human beings in all other circumstances. The anodyne term 'collateral damage,' along with perfunctory and meaningless words of regret, are employed when innocent civilians, including children, are maimed and butchered. A private individual behaving this way would be called a sociopath. Give him a fancy title and a nice suit, and he becomes a statesman."
Lew Rockwell

"To those who still believe the soldiers past and present are fighting for our freedoms, and many have died for our freedoms, I would ask them to sight half a dozen ways in which we are more free today than in years past? We are in fact much less free. This means either their efforts have been a complete failure, or our freedoms were never what they were fighting for to begin with."
Greg Privette

"I really think the mainstream idea that we can always make a mad dash for the black emptiness in the sky if things go to shit here keeps us from truly confronting our urgent need to preserve the ecosystemic context in which we evolved, and which there’s no evidence that we can live without.
I mean, we don’t even know that space colonization is possible. As of yet we have no evidence at all that humans are sufficiently separate and separable from Earth’s biosphere for survival apart from our ecosystem to be a real thing. Humans aren’t really separate 'things'; they’re a symbiotic collaboration of organisms with ecosystems of their own, all of which as far as we know are entirely dependent on the greater ecosystem from which we blossomed. So far all our attempts at creating independent biospheres have failed miserably, and the closest we’ve come to living in space has consisted of nothing but glorified scuba excursions: visits to space stations fully dependent on a lifeline of terrestrial supplies. That’s the difference between flying and jumping. It might be as delusional as our brains thinking they can hop out of our skulls and live independently of our bodies, or some river eddies saying they’re moving to dry land."
Caitlin Johnstone

"The existentialists say 'Existence precedes essence', which means first we are alive, and then we define our own being and identity. This philosophy is what’s eating away at our culture. To some, this suggests a power to perfect man and society. They are willing to use the powers of the state to accomplish this feat. To others, this philosophy suggests that we create ourselves individually. This leads to all values being equivalent. Whatever one chooses becomes okay. Everything is permitted. The individual may do anything and no one can say it’s right or wrong.
These two highly destructive directions (elevating the state and elevating the individual) are diametrically opposed, and yet they both flow from the idea that existence precedes essence."
Michael Rozeff

"A country with instability on the American scale tends to unleash wars, and wars have been the sole activity of the US in the 21st century, leaving 'a trail of destruction, suffering, refugee camps and death on an industrial scale.'  Consequently, the rest of the world is organizing to put a halt to Washington’s aggression and violent overthrow of countries. 
With America unable to produce leadership, handicapped by inferior weapons systems, and left behind by the revolution in military affairs, the neoconservatives drowning in their own arrogant hubris could easily foment a conflict that will leave America in ruins."
Paul Craig Roberts
