Once USAID was cut…

7 of 7 elections in Latin America were won by “Right Wing” candidates.

Chile (Kast)
Bolivia (Paz)
Peru (Fujimori)
Ecuador (Noboa)
Honduras (Asfura)
Costa Rica (Fernández)
Colombia (de la Espriella)

USAID wasn’t feeding the hungry, it was feeding Communism.

[Resist CBDC 🏁 @Resist_CBDC]

Just coincidentally - all the world leaders - all meet up in Davos - all made the exact same errors - open borders - COVID - vax mandates - Digital ID - CBDC - green energy - trans - all at the exact same time - all in the exact same direction - just coincidentally.

[Predictive History @PredicHistory]

Three forces are killing the West.
Gerontocracy.
Old people live too long
and never give up power.
Young people get nothing.
So they stop having children.
Bureaucracy.
Governments. Universities. Hospitals. Media.
Once dynamic institutions.
Now they only care about doing as little as possible
and collecting a pension.
Meritocracy.
Sounds good. Isn't.
The old aristocracy felt shame about their status
so they felt responsible for society.
The meritocracy feels no shame.
I'm rich because I'm smart.
You're poor because you're lazy.
So starve.
Three dominoes.
Every empire falls the same way.

Europe should stop being afraid of a nonexistent “Russian invasion” and start addressing the real invasion happening right in front of its eyes: illegal mass migration

[Hayek-Club Weimar @WeimarClub]

Sozialismus ist das perfekte Geschäftsmodell für Politiker: Er erzeugt Abhängigkeit, und Abhängigkeit erzeugt Wähler. Wer vom Staat lebt – durch Transferleistungen, Subventionen, „soziale“ Absicherung, planwirtschaftliche Privilegien – wählt denjenigen, der die Hähne aufdreht. Der Politiker wird zum Versorger, der Bürger zum Klienten. Je größer die Abhängigkeit, desto größer die Macht. Deshalb lieben sie ihn. Nicht aus Ideologie, sondern aus nacktem Eigeninteresse.

Kapitalismus hingegen ist für die politische Klasse eine existenzielle Bedrohung. Er belohnt Eigenverantwortung, Risiko, Innovation und private Initiative. Er macht Menschen unabhängig vom Staat – und damit unkontrollierbar. Wer seinen Lebensunterhalt selbst verdient, seine Entscheidungen selbst trifft und seinen Wohlstand selbst schafft, braucht keine Gönner in Berlin, Brüssel oder sonstwo.

Jede Regulierung, die „den Markt zähmen“ soll, ist in Wahrheit ein Instrument, um Wettbewerb zu ersticken und etablierte Interessen zu schützen. Der freie Markt braucht keinen Politiker als Mittler. Der Politiker braucht den freien Markt als Feindbild.

Deshalb die ewige Rhetorik: Kapitalismus wird als „gierig“, „ungerecht“, „unsozial“ gebrandmarkt – während der Staat, der mit Gewalt monopolisiert, umverteilt und kontrolliert, als moralische Instanz auftritt. Es ist die älteste Strategie der Macht: die Abhängigkeit als Tugend verkaufen und die Unabhängigkeit als Gefahr.

Der Staat hat kein Interesse an freien Menschen. Er hat Interesse an Untertanen, die ihm dankbar sind. Sozialismus liefert die Untertanen. Kapitalismus liefert die Freien.

[Milton Friedman Quotes @MiltonFriedmanW]

Markets penalize and eliminate failures, while government preserves and expands them. Milton Friedman explains:

“The problem with government is the absence of any mechanism for recognizing errors. What the private system abounds in is survival of the fittest.”

“What the governmental system abounds in is expansion of the mistakes. There is no mechanism for eliminating governmental agencies which are no longer needed or have behaved perversely.”

@Frospigliosi Hay que destituir a todos los juezes comunistas, pro-delincuentes, pro-terroristas, corruptos, que lastiman a los ciudadanos de bien. El comunismo esta enquistado en diferentes ambitos del aparato gubernamental.

[Commentary - Sowell Economics @sowelleconomics]

In this classic debate, Thomas Sowell rejects the idea of a permanent “poor” class.

Treating poverty as a permanent identity is dangerous. When markets were freer, people moved out of poverty. As government control expanded, we started seeing generational underclasses instead.

He says he’s appalled that people talk about “the poor” as if they’re born with a scarlet letter on their forehead.

Fairness means opportunity — not endless redistribution.

[Milton Friedman Quotes @MiltonFriedmanW]

Equality once meant equality before the law & equality of opportunity.

Today, it increasingly means equality of outcome—an ideal that is in clear conflict with equal opportunity and individual freedom.

Milton Friedman explains 👇

[Thomas Sowell Quotes @ThomasSowell]

“The more I study the history of intellectuals, the more they seem like a wrecking crew, dismantling civilization bit by bit — replacing what works with what sounds good.”

[Commentary - Sowell Economics @sowelleconomics]

The left treats race as the master explanation for poverty. Thomas Sowell points out how quickly that story collapses under basic data.

Six of the ten poorest counties in America were 90–100% white. For fifty years their median incomes stayed below the Black average. Zero racism. No slavery legacy. Just poverty.

Meanwhile Black married-couple families have kept their poverty rate under 10% for more than a quarter-century — lower than the national rate in most of those years. If “institutional racism” is the cause, why does it suddenly grant an exemption once people get married?

Race is not the only variable. Behavior is.

[Thomas Sowell Daily @DailySowell]

Thomas Sowell on why the left needs people to remain dependent & unwilling to take responsibility:

“The last thing the political left needs, or can even afford, are self-reliant individuals. If such people became the norm, that would destroy not only the agenda and the careers of those on the left, but even their flattering image of themselves as saviors of the less fortunate.”

[Milton Friedman Quotes @MiltonFriedmanW]

One reason government has been able to keep taxes high is that much of the burden is hidden.

1) Withholding makes income taxes less visible by deducting them before workers receive their pay.

2) Terms such as “corporate taxes” make it seem like corporations, not people, are paying the taxes.

Milton Friedman reminds us: “Business can’t pay taxes—only people can pay taxes.”
