"No, the Government Won’t Go Out of Business"
*"No, the Government Won’t Go Out of Business"* By Bill Bonner "It always ends this way. It always, always, always ends this way. It’s depressing. Rome… Ming Dynasty… Zimbabwe… this end game that we’re talking about. The financial arrangements of the state are no longer sustainable… Government will not voluntarily let itself go out of business; it will use all its powers available to fund itself." – Former Director, National Economic Council, Lawrence Lindsay BALTIMORE, MARYLAND – "Every empire finds its Berezina.

What can be done about climate crisis?
Bruce Gagnon and Lisa Savage discuss climate crisis and what can be done about it. This show ran in August of this year - a much warmer time in Maine than the present moment. Lisa is now running for the US Senate seat in Maine currently held by right-wing Republican Susan Collins. Lisa is running as a member of the Maine Green Independent Party (MGIP) in what will be a first in the nation for a US Senate seat - a Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) race. That means there will be no spoiler and that voters can rank their true preferences. These kinds of RCV races tend to draw more people... more »

*Scotland: No tuition fees? No thanks* *How the SNP's no-fees policy is harming Scotland's young people. There may be no fees but enrolment is severely limited* Attempting to entice the electorate with freebies was a prominent part of the Labour Party’s General Election campaign. Yet although the electorate rejected Labour, the popularity of its pledge to abolish university fees has prompted some to suggest that university education in England, Northern Ireland and Wales should be as it is in Scotland; namely, free. In truth, however, Scotland illustrates the danger of taking the o... more »
The SR-72 Spy Plane Will Be Faster Than You Can Ever Imagine
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, * Six times the speed of sound. *Key point:* Lockheed’s hyping of a hypersonic aircraft which may-or-may-not already exist seems explicitly intended to build support for additional funding. Hypersonic weapons—those capable of flying over five times the speed of sound—are the hot new buzz word of defense industrial complexes across the globe. China, Russia and the United States have all vigorously and relatively openly pursued a diverse array of hypersonic weapons programs, adding fuel to the fire of a growing arms race. While long-range ballistic m... more »
Sig Sauer's P365 Semi-Automatic: The Best Gun for Concealed-Carry?
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * Here's why. *Key Point:* Its the ideal concealed-carry pistol. For now, the Sig 365 appears to be a pistol with remarkably few downsides. The pistol did have several reports of failure to enter battery, where the slide goes fully forward chambering a live round. The company halted shipments and replaced the springs, and the problem seems to have been addressed. Aside from this minor issue the company quickly corrected, the Sig 365’s first generation has been a relatively trouble-free one. The new Sig P365 pistol breaks the mold of current subcompact ... more »
This Is How China's Will Fight And Win A War In The South China Sea
*Kerry K. Gershaneck, James E. Fanell* *Security, Asia* Globally, countries that hoped that they would never have to choose sides in a war between the U.S. and China found it was finally time to choose sides. *Key point:* On January 28, Beijing declared all of its coastal Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZs) to be “foreign military-free zones” and defined all sea space inside China’s declared “9-Dashed Line Map” to comprise China’s “Blue Sovereign Soil.” China’s claims of South China Sea (SCS) ownership are illegal, but Beijing’s hyper-nationalistic officials increasingly encourage i... more »
Here's Why Israel Decided To Upgrade Its F-4 "Super" Phantoms
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, Middle East* It parallels the story of the F-35 and F-15X. *Key point: *This is far from the first time that manufacturers of new jet fighter designs have opposed pursuing upgrades of older models already in service. In 2018 reports emerged that the Pentagon would seek to procure a dozen upgraded F-15X fighters to replace an aging fleet of F-15C air superiority fighters. Rightly or wrongly, advocates of the F-35 stealth fighter fear the F-15X might impact F-35 procurement, even though the F-35 wasn’t meant to replace the F-15C. This is far from the ... more »
Revealed: The Secrets Behind Russia's Crazy 100-Megaton Nuclear Torpedo
*Steve Weintz* *Security, Russia* From fiction to reality. *Key Point:* It's coming soon. On November 10, 2015, Russian media accidentally-on-purpose revealed a glimpse into the Kremlin's new underwater weapon—the "Kanyon" or Status-6 nuclear-powered, nuclear-armed drone. Since then the debate swirling around the device, such as whether it is real, its practicality, military use and history. This has produced a picture of a very old idea reborn into a new and dangerous age. The Kanyon UUV (unmanned underwater vehicle) as described and illustrated is a very, very large torpedo a... more »

*A fracking ban would trigger a global recession * The extraction of oil and gas through the techniques of horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing (colloquially, “fracking”) has catapulted the United States into leadership of the world’s energy markets. Since 2007, fracking has doubled U.S. oil production and increased gas production by 60%. Instead of a major importer, America is rapidly becoming the largest exporter of oil and is expected to supply the majority of net new energy traded on global markets over the next two decades. If the U.S. imposed a fracking ban, the supp... more »

Lewis Goodall v Robbie Gibb
A thread from *Newnight*'s new policy editor on Sajid Javid's interview with the FT... *Lewis Goodall*: Two points: -final acceptance that referendum promise that we’d have exactly the same benefits of the single market was false. -pledging to double economic growth at the same time as leaving world‘s biggest trade bloc seems, erm, ambitious. Alternative trade deals won’t come online for years (if earlier it’s probably a sign they’re v basic) and as studies show, benefits of FTAs are pretty modest.

Trump Unveils Plan to Speed Up Permits for Big Projects
*[image: President Donald Trump speaks during a 'Evangelicals for Trump' campaign event held at the King Jesus International Ministry on January 03, 2020 in Miami, Florida. (Joe Raedle/Getty Images)]* Quite bluntly we presently have a culture of legalistic obstructionism pursued by so called activists all funded by vested interests oposing change for selfish reasons. The best example of that was the fight over the new bridge now being built between Windsor and Detroit. It will be completed in 2024 or a good twenty years after first proposed. The fact is that most of the big bridg... more »
Haiti Faces Difficult Questions Ten Years After a Devastating Earthquake
This country is one of the great horror shows of arrested human development. The only thing that the country is rich in is good will.Ten years have passed and the political class now ensures even that cannot be tapped. Any aid money will end up providing security for the big man. What Haiti needs is restorative agriculture implemented by natural communities supported by internal credit creation. That with modernity, even if it is a cell phone, can completely change outcomes here. Haiti was the first truly successful slave revolt and that was over two centuries ago. Its devel... more »
Learning to Unlearn: The Highest Form of Learning
Can you become self aware? I really think it all starts there. That then begs the all important question of just who told you this. Yet that is the rub. You are also programmed to be accepting. All this is overcome by plenty of content. That means reading a lot. In fact we are seeing just that happening. Understand that is the real breakout of the Trump election win. Voters unlearned decades of leftist misinformation and then acted to support a candidate who agreed with them. How did that happen so quickly? Twitter allowed Trump to share important alternative voices. T... more »
Processed Foods Highly Correlated with Obesity Epidemic in the U.S.
Much as all this is blindingly obvious, it is also nice to see the meta stat picture confirming it all. It is also hard enough to avoid sugar in our diet from driving weight gains. Avoiding processed foods is a great start. The truth is that even avoiding processed foods still exposes us to hidden sugars in all sorts of foodstuffs. But that is a problem for those who are not particularly obese. Obesity or better runaway obesity is a huge growing problem. Processed food is obviously a facilitator. Yet we can also identify other drivers. Not least is outright sugar cravings. ... more »

*Adoration* Let me put it this way (trying to be kind to the extent that it's possible). You can be a fat, slovenly, oaf with a moderately low IQ and still be able to get laid in North Korea.

Can You Guess The World's Best Shotguns, Pistols, And Military Rifles?
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * Here they are. *Key Point:* A combined list to fit your needs. *5 Best Handguns:* The bustling global arms trade has resulted in many excellent handguns in the last hundred years. Some of the best handguns are more than a hundred years old, while others have been in production for less than a decade. All are excellent weapons for defense, and in some cases offense; they are equally at home in a homeowner’s gun safe or carried as an officer’s sidearm. Here are five of the best handguns currently in service worldwide. *The Colt M1911A1* Designed by p... more »
Some Say America Has Too Many Aircraft Carriers, But The Navy Fears A Shortage
*David Axe* *Security, * Seriously. *Key point:* When the Obama administration in 2014 proposed prematurely to retire *Truman*'s sister ship USS *George Washington*, Congress overrode the decision and added billions of dollars to the Navy's budget to keep Washington in service. The U.S. Navy reportedly is considering cutting an aircraft carrier, dropping the number of flattops to 10 in the short term and potentially just eight in the longer term, despite a legal requirement for the service to operate at least 11 carriers.

Keeping with its Crackdown on Alternative Voices, Google Deletes Press TV from YouTube
[image: undefined] Without warning, tech giant Google “permanently removed” Iranian government-owned media channel Press TV UK’s YouTube channel Monday night amid increasing American hostility to Iran. “This attack on the freedom of speech of Press TV’s journalists seems to be part of an anti-Iran purge as the West sets its sights on regime change in Iran,” Press TV said. Its content, in its own words, focuses on “anti-imperialism, anti-racism, and covers aspects of the news which the mainstream corporate media in the United Kingdom have refused to air.” The London-based outlet had... more »
After US Killing of Iran’s Soleimani, Narrative Control on Social Media is Getting Worse
[image: undefined] Twitter has been on a narrative-control rampage, removing or censoring legitimate accounts that are critical of US-led wars, propaganda and lies. Facebook and Instagram have increased their Big Brother policing, too. Attempts by American-based social media behemoths to silence or censor voices critical of the establishment-approved narrative is nothing new, but this trend seems to have intensified lately. Just in the past several days, following the criminal US assassination of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani, Instagram and Facebook have been removing posts sup... more »
Russia’s Big Gamble in Libya
[image: undefined] First, the background. When the United States abandoned the Iran agreement, that left Turkey’s oil imports adrift due to newly imposed US Treasury sanctions on Iranian oil exports. By December 2018, Turkey was forced to look elsewhere for its oil imports with Libya being the most logical choice by price and proximity, despite the violence there. Misrata rebels allied with Libya Dawn in charge of Libya’s largest free trade port, arranged oil exports from Zawiya and Sirte to Italy* and Turkey, at favorable prices. Recall that Tripolitania (west) and Cyrenaica (east... more »

*Gun News Daily* *Technology, Americas* More people use .22 rifles on a daily basis than any other type of gun. *Key Point:* For those looking for a .22 rifle to teach their kids about shooting in the back yard, or even for occasional hunting trips, a cheaper .22 rifle like the Marlins I’ve mentioned should be more than enough. The question of what is the best .22 rifle is one of those perennial debates that never goes away.

One of the most unusual submarines of the Cold War was named after one of the most unusual fish in the sea. Halibut are flatfish, bottom-dwelling predators that, unlike conventional fish, lie sideways with two eyes on the same side of the head and ambush passing prey.
