Moving on...for now
Source: JoePlummer.com
It's been almost exactly one year since I published Tragedy and Hope 101 and I'm happy to say, for the first time in more than a decade, I'm not actively working on another book. This is a really good thing; let me explain why.
When I sold my business at the end of 2003, my goal was to research and write about three main topics: our corrupt monetary system, our corrupt political system, and the corrupt elite who control them both. I believe that Dishonest Money, Tragedy and Hope 101, and Leaving the Illusion (respectively), provide a clear summary of these topics. In short, I'm moving on because I've done what I set out to do.

Market is Solving Climate Change
Source: DailyBell.com
--Whether or not one believes the world is in peril, fossil fuels are certainly not pleasant. No one enjoys breathing exhaust fumes or having frackers move in across the street. We accept the disadvantages because the fossil fuel cost-benefit calculation outweighs the alternatives.
This is beginning to change, and the way it is changing is a classic illustration of markets beating government to the best answer.
--When an industry can undercut the competition's price by 30% or more, the competition does not have a chance. The established players will survive only as long as they can use political influence to protect their turf. Electric utilities in Hawaii and Arizona, among other places, are desperately throwing up hurdles for homeowners with rooftop solar cells.
These utilities will lose. Technology is rendering their state-protected monopolies worthless. They can either evolve or die.

The Neoconservatives: Tyranny's Fifth Column
Source: TheDailyBell.com
--Today in America, the neoconservative political movement represents a "Fifth Column" for the forces of collectivism. Its intellectuals and activists promote themselves as conservatives who oppose the liberals, but their political philosophy has nothing to do with what is known as American conservatism, which has always stood for a limited constitutional government and free enterprise. These values are anathema to today's "neoconservatives" in the nation's political, literary and scholarly circles.
--The paradigm that neoconservatives have given their lives to is built upon a centralized mega-state running American society from Washington and also, as much as possible, the rest of the world.
--The neoconservatives, thus, represent tyranny's Fifth Column in America. They are deceiving the people into believing that they are genuine conservatives, but like the socialists who were their mentors, they call themselves what they know the people want to hear. These ersatz conservatives have now grown to dominate Washington's think tanks, Wall Street's brokerages and banks, and many major publications and universities. They are highly influential writers, scholars, pundits, publishers, institute heads, bankers and corporate moguls.

Uber driver with a concealed handgun prevented a mass shooting in Chicago
Source: BusinessInsider.com
--"The driver pulled out a handgun and fired six shots at Custodio, hitting him several times, according to court records. Responding officers found Custodio lying on the ground, bleeding, Quinn said. No other injuries were reported."
The driver will not be charged:
"The driver had a concealed-carry permit and acted in the defense of himself and others, Assistant State's Attorney Barry Quinn said in court Sunday."
Chicago was home to some of the most draconian gun laws in the US until a 2010 Supreme Court ruling, McDonald v. Chicago, found Chicago's gun-regulation regime unconstitutional.

Exactly Who Is "Anti-vaccine"?
Source: ThinkingMomsRevolution.com
--If you want transparency, accountability, and ethical science when it comes to vaccines, you are "anti-vaccine."
If you believe those who profit from vaccines should not be in charge of vaccine policy or research, you are "anti-vaccine."
If you believe you should have the right to informed consent, and that not all vaccines are created or needed equally, you are "anti-vaccine."
If you believe we should study those who have reacted negatively to prevent problems for others in the future, you are "anti-vaccine."

COMMENT: Many people are (logically) worried about losing their right to choose what goes into their bodies (and the bodies of their children). Or to put it another way: They're not ready to hand that decision over to Big-Pharma and the government.
We cannot ignore the fact that MANDATORY vaccination "policies" are being written at the behest (and for the benefit), of multi-billion dollar drug companies; companies that use their money and influence to secure the coercive power of government so they can literally force their products down your throat.

The War on the American People
Source: TheDailyBell.com
--Certainly, the Constitution's safeguards against police abuse means nothing when government agents can crash through your door, terrorize your children, shoot your dogs, and jail you on any number of trumped of charges, and you have little say in the matter. For instance, San Diego police, responding to a domestic disturbance call on a Sunday morning, showed up at the wrong address, only to shoot the homeowner's 6-year-old service dog in the head.
Rubbing salt in the wound, it's often the unlucky victim of excessive police force who ends up being charged with wrongdoing. Although 16-year-old Thai Gurule was charged with resisting arrest and strangling and assaulting police officers, a circuit judge found that it was actually the three officers who unlawfully stopped, tackled, punched, kneed, tasered and yanked his hair who were at fault. Thankfully, bystander cell phone videos undermined police accounts, which were described as "works of fiction."
