The last century has been a complete catastrophe for money/currency. The criminal banksters won in a stealth move on December 23rd, 1913. Since then, they have managed to create more wars and death than at any point in history. The central banking disease has since spread to almost the entire world. With control of the… Continue reading Central Banking – A Century of Failure

Bernankoin – The Coin to Save Our Economy – QUANTITATIVE EASING
Such goes the announcement of a new crypto currency on the Bitcoin Talk forums: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=375010.0 Surely the Bernankoin will supplant Bitcoin as the dominant crypto currency in the world. After all, it is based on the solid fundamentals of the Federal Reserve Bank and the wise policies of Ben Bernanke. Which makes Bernankoins very different… Continue reading Bernankoin – The Coin to Save Our Economy – QUANTITATIVE EASING
Peter Schiff on Gold vs. Bitcoins Misses the Point
Peter Schiff is absolutely one of the smartest guys out there, and I have a lot of respect for him. However, he’s still missing the point about bitcoins and how they have intrinsic value. But first, here’s his most recent video on the topic: Peter is stuck on how gold has intrinsic value through physical… Continue reading Peter Schiff on Gold vs. Bitcoins Misses the Point
“Legalize Gay Marriage” is the Wrong Question
I often wonder why people ask such idiotic questions or debate such moronic issues, like legalizing gay marriage. The state has no business telling you who you can love or who you can marry. (Let’s assume consenting adults here and not go off on the retarded statist tangent. That actually needs to be said for… Continue reading “Legalize Gay Marriage” is the Wrong Question
“Reasonable” is Bad Reasoning
I really don’t like the use of “reasonable” in any kind of argument. It’s most common use is to mean “you must change your mind” or “you must compromise”. It does have legitimate uses, but those seem rare. An example of calling for someone to be “reasonable” is if they are using faulty logic, e.g.… Continue reading “Reasonable” is Bad Reasoning
Disinfo or Poor Reasoning at Reason.com?
A recent article at Reason.com talks about how a specific font (ZXX) can hide information from the NSA. http://reason.com/blog/2013/06/21/dont-want-the-nsa-to-read-your-email-use This is a pretty silly claim. The first reason is pretty obvious: If it’s in digital text, then since the underlying character values are all the same as normal text and the font is irrelevant, well,… Continue reading Disinfo or Poor Reasoning at Reason.com?
A $500 per ozt Silver Example
Dr. Jeff has an interesting question in a recent article: http://www.silver-coin-investor.com/Silver-Short-Squeeze-Scenario-420.html When the negligible value of paper currency eventually becomes apparent, what does it matter if silver is $500 per ounce in a world where a loaf of bread costs $100? Well, it does matter. If you buy silver now before that happens. Here’s why…… Continue reading A $500 per ozt Silver Example
Christianity and Anarchism/Voluntaryism
For quite a while I’ve been mulling over how Christianity is anarchistic, and even necessarily so. Then I came across this: http://anarchast.com/front/2013/5/2/anarchast-ep72-with-paul-rosenberg-christians-are-anarchists.html When you think about it, it makes sense. Christianity doesn’t force anyone to be a Christian. The entire point is to freely choose. Freewill is paramount. This is pretty much what you get… Continue reading Christianity and Anarchism/Voluntaryism
Obama vs. Reagan
Barack Obama: Unfortunately, you’ve grown up hearing voices that incessantly warn of government as nothing more than some separate, sinister entity that’s at the root of all our problems. Ronald Reagan: In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem. Ahem… Nuff said?
Bitcoin Hit Piece After Bitcoin Hit Piece
Mainstream news is reporting hit piece after hit piece on BITCOIN. It’s a non-stop parade of pundits all coming out to scream the horrors of bitcoin and how it is nothing but a bubble. But remember, these are the same kinds of pundits that rallied around the dot-com bubble singing its praises, and the same… Continue reading Bitcoin Hit Piece After Bitcoin Hit Piece
