UN Pushes for Global Bureaucracy to Allegedly Fight Climate Change

It’s fashionable among “respectable” libertarians and other small-government types to make fun of their more extreme brethren, especially when it comes to the United Nations. And yet the UN’s “Negotiating Text”–draft language containing options for the delegates who will meet in Paris in December–doesn’t need any wild imagination to appear sinister. We can just quote […]

Hot Button Phrase: “FEMA Camp”

Second perhaps only to “chemtrails,” when the responsible, sober libertarians on Facebook want to mock the paranoid ones, they bring up “FEMA camps.” A relative sent me the following video, which apparently shows footage from Florida of a drill in which U.S. military pretend to march U.S. citizens into a detention camp. Then the anchor […]

Anti-Conspiracy Theorist Article Unwittingly Trolls Itself

The headline of a recent RawStory article declares: Facebook conspiracy theorists fooled by even the most obvious anti-science trolling: study …and features this charming image: Some strong words and a picture, no? Let’s see what this ballyhooed study found. According to the article: A team of Italian and American researchers tested the social media […]

However, to focus on facts such as “the Saudis are pledging to maintain production despite the price fall, which fueled even further price falls” is to […]

If they think those things are true, then Jim Carrey is a hero who is doing what little he can (without putting himself in mortal peril) to […]

Harry Reid on ObamaCare Being Just a Step in the Right Direction

I know I linked to news reports at the time this interview occurred in the summer of 2013–in which Harry Reid unambiguously says his goal is a single payer system that gets private health insurers out of the picture–but I don’t remember if I ever posted the video of it (which wasn’t available when the […]

When the State Fixes Your Mind

Just some history tidbits on the government helping people get better, that’s all. Sure mistakes were made, but they mean well. Gooo ObamaCare! (Seriously, when you have 15 minutes you need to read about this stuff if you’ve never done so. We get into ice-pick lobotomies and MK-Ultra. Something for everyone. Nudie shots too.)

Is There a Reason For Stock Market to Be So High?

ZeroHedge has an interesting post relaying an FT report that central banks and other government institutions around the world have invested $29.1 trillion in market investments such as equities and gold. The ZeroHedge article then gives this interesting chart: Analysts who reject “conspiracy theories” might tell a plausible story about the above chart along the […]
