Oh man this is GOOD! He just keeps getting better and better! Great article!
One of my favorite facts in history comes from the era of the Crusades. Who benefitted? Why, the arms makers of northern Italy who equipped both sides did.
I wouldn't mind his suppositions if the above were true. Not sure if it was a purely comedic attempt or if he got lost in the idea. The bit about 90K+ governing entities falls in line with why we have the 10th Amendment.
May not be anyone running the country, but they sure are amassing a lot of power and control over the People...
I’m sure David Geffen, for one, isn’t going to take kindly that cut about pederasty.
There is but he only has so much leeway in the score he has been given.
If Obama is driving... I’ll take the train. If he was a taxi driver at an airport... I would walk...
If no one is "Running" the country what are we paying those 535 drones in DC for?
Jonah, if you are “free”, try carrying a handgun in New York.
“Civil service laws and union rules make it darn near impossible to fire even grossly incompetent employees for anything short of pederasty or murder.”
Pederasty? Does Jonah really think that would bring about a successful firing in this day and age? Check your straight privilege, or whatever it is they are saying of late.
“If you don’t read the newspaper, you’re uninformed. If you read the newspaper, you’re mis-informed.”
-Mark Twain
Freedom is not freedom if it is licensed, permitted, and otherwise metered out by bureaucrats.
Sorry, but that is wildly unhistorical.
Bankers can “run things” only when there is a long-term political system that protects their profits against expropriation.
That system has not existed through most of history. Indian, Chinese and European history is filled with instances of “powerful” bankers being executed and/or having all their wealth confiscated when they fall out with the real rulers.
That’s why I say it never ends well.
Valerie Jarrett is going to be some POed when she learns that she is not recognized as a great leader.
There are the elected and then there are leaders.
I think this is naive. There’s no onoe controlling everything. There are, however, plenty of people in control of major portions of our lives. They live in Washington, D.C. The fact their control is not absolute does not mean it is there and dangerous to our liberty, health and financial well-being.
So the world’s march toward one world communist control is mere happenstance?
