Reminiscences of Hayek

I never have trouble remembering Friedrich Hayek’s birthday (May 8) because it’s the same day as my late sister’s birthday and the same day as VE Day. Here’s a link to some reminiscences of the first time I met Hayek. A highlight from that link: In June 1975, when I attended the second Austrian conference […] The post Reminiscences of Hayek appeared first on Econlib. read more

The Healing Oils for Heart Health: Do NOT Trust Your Government for Nutritional Advice

As more and more people in the United States are waking up to the fact that our federal health agencies, such as the FDA and CDC, are corrupt and serve the interests of Wall Street Billionaires and not the public, it is more important than ever to understand the corruption that also exists within the USDA (U.S. Department of Agriculture) and their years of bad nutritional advice that has demonized traditional, healthy fats and oils that have nourished populations for thousands of years, in favor of the newer "polyunsaturated" oils which are toxic, and dangerous to your health.

The Poet: Mary Oliver, "Coming Home"

*"Coming Home"* "When we are driving in the dark, on the long road to Provincetown, when we are weary, when the buildings and the scrub pines lose their familiar look, I imagine us rising from the speeding car. I imagine us seeing everything from another place- the top of one of the pale dunes, or the deep and nameless fields of the sea. And what we see is a world that cannot cherish us, but which we cherish. And what we see is our life moving like that along the dark edges of everything, headlights sweeping the blackness, believing in a thousand fragile and unprovable things. Looking out... read more

"If You Look..."

"We have got some very big problems confronting us and let us not make any mistake about it, human history in the future is fraught with tragedy. It's only through people making a stand against that tragedy and being doggedly optimistic that we are going to win through. If you look at the plight of the human race it could well tip you into despair, so you have to be very strong." - Robert James Brown read more

Calibrating the housing market

I doubt that a mortgage holder facing foreclosure is going to get much comfort out of viewing his situation as a “recalibration”.

Class Action Lawsuit Filed Against ALDI’s Grocery Store Alleges “Unsustainable, Environmentally Destructive” Practices

The ALDI’s grocery store chain has become a darling of the organic and non-GMO food movement in recent years, in large part because of its pledge to add more organic products to its store shelves. One of the top 10 largest grocery chains in the United States, ALDI’s is famous for its coin-operated shopping carts and relatively small, intimate shopping centers in comparison with mainstream supermarkets. Many customers visit ALDI’s for its allegedly wild caught and sustainable meats and seafood, but these items may not be as “sustainable” and environmentally-friendly as first believed... read more

The Poor People’s Campaign And The Moral Dilemma Of Liberalism

Rev. William Barber, an indisputable champion of the poor and a consistent voice demanding an end to poverty, may have made a serious moral and ethical error that effectively placed him outside of the “Kingian” framework that informed Dr. King’s work especially during the last year of his life. In an attempt to make a point about the flawed priorities of the duopoly, Dr. Barber wrote in an email to the “movement family” on Saturday, April 30, 2022 that, “despite the political gridlock on Capitol Hill, Republicans and Democrats have acted swiftly to approve historic military aid to... read more

How An Israel Lobby Group Infiltrated US Education

Richmond, Virginia - In 2018, the Virginia Coalition for Human Rights (VCHR) successfully stopped the state from adopting textbook edits made by the Institute for Curriculum Services (ICS), a pro-Israel “educational” institution. The ICS promotes itself as improving the accuracy of K-12 instruction on Judaism and Jewish history in the United States. Yet, backed by the Israel lobby, its strategy appears more in line with advocating a Zionist narrative than enhancing education. Today, ICS boasts that it has helped better public education in all 50 states and impacted 11 million stu... read more

No Such Thing As Dissent In The Age Of Big Tech

Initially, not only had PayPal banned Consortium News from receiving new donations, but it had informed Lauria that PayPal may keep the nearly $10,000 in the news site’s account as “damages.” After this interview was recorded, PayPal relented on keeping those funds, while, as of this writing, it is still banning new donations. To Lauria and Scheer, these chilling decisions on behalf of inordinately powerful tech companies are ushering a dangerous era of censorship that is even more alarming than the McCarthy period.

Stop Using Cash Bail To Separate Mothers From Their Children

Roughly 4,300 women across California will spend this Mother’s Day in pretrial custody. An estimated 80% are mothers, and most are their children’s primary caretakers. Pretrial incarceration — leading to coerced guilty pleas, unemployment and housing loss — devastates these women and their children, who are left behind. This mass family-separation is the work of judges who break the law and elected bodies that fund incarceration over community-centered care. Last year, the California Supreme Court held that it is unconstitutional to jail presumptively innocent people solely becaus... read more

The Core Of Copaganda Is The Symbiotic Relationship Between Press And Police

When the news got out that someone had shot people in New York City’s subway system, many of us knew just what would come next, and we were not surprised. Immediate, urgent calls for more police and more policing, for tougher treatment of homeless and/or mentally ill people. Forget tolerance or empathy or social services, because look where that gets us. It’s an argument that we’ve heard for decades, but it’s not an abstract debate. Just because patterns and practices are old doesn’t mean their harms are not fresh. So, yes, it matters very much whether the news convinces people th... read more
