Massie is Trying to End the Fed. Again.
Rep. Thomas Massie just reintroduced a bill to abolish the Federal Reserve—and if there were any justice in the world, it would be signed into law tomorrow. The Federal Reserve Board Abolition Act (HR 1846) would repeal the Federal Reserve Act and shut down the Fed completely. Massie argues—correctly—that Americans would be better off if […]
The Minimum Wage Lie
A recent study showed that nearly half of young people have a favorable view of socialism. That’s pretty shocking. But it actually starts to make sense when you look at the ways the public education system has been captured by the so-called progressives, and the fact that kids today have a hard time believing that […]
Powell to Trump: “You’re not the boss of me!”
Jerome Powell made headlines this week, and not just because the Fed decided to cut rates again. Just two days after Trump’s re-election, Powell held a press conference where, among other things, he declared that he would not step down if the president asked him to. Oh. This bold move underscores something many people don’t […]
The system is rigged to make (and keep) us poor
News out of the DNC has given us one disastrous take after another, so it’s hard to pick which awful policy proposal to talk about first. Although there are literally a dozen freedom-limiting, big-government enhancing, worst-idea-ever, soundbites to choose from, I want to talk about something that might get lost in the flashier headlines. The […]
Uncovering the Real Reasons for Rising Prices: The Truth about Inflation
Why is everything so expensive right now?! The answer is inflation, but it’s not caused by corporate greed like they want you to believe—it’s caused by the Fed. Here’s how: Inflation, at its core, is when there’s too much money floating around, and it ends up making each dollar worth less. For example, if the […]
What the WEF and the Fed Have in Common
This week, the global elite arrived by private jet and motorcade in Davos where they plan to spend the next several days lecturing the rest of us about the sacrifices we’ll need to make in order to create a greener and more equitable world. As they dine on the finest cuts of beef, they’ll discuss […]
Blame the Fed—Not Capitalism—For Your Grocery Bill
On this day in 1913, the Federal Reserve Act was signed, creating the nation’s third central bank. In the 108 years since, it has successfully enriched the powerful and well-connected and stolen from the rest of us by manipulating the Dollar. This week, millions of Americans are dealing with the most expensive Christmas of their […]
Honey, Inflation Shrunk the Food!
It’s not just your imagination… groceries are getting way more expensive. And as much as I hate to rain on the parade with a downer topic this lovely Friday afternoon, you’ve probably already noticed this! You don’t need me to tell you that prices for basic items like eggs, milk, vegetables and meat are higher […]
Psst… The Government Thinks Inflation is “Too Low”
I talk a lot about big government. Mostly, about how it takes advantage of people to grow its own power at our expense. In doing so, it makes our lives more difficult, drives up the cost of living, and takes away the very freedoms that the federal government was created to help protect. And while […]
