Over the last two years, Americans have lived simultaneously through both the greatest pandemic in a century and the greatest social upheaval since at least the 1960s.

DELUDED AND DISORDERED: The Persecution of Independent Thought
On his blog, NoMoreFakeNews.com, Jon Rappoport examines the structure of society that pushes human thought toward a basic average and persecutes or punishes thoughts that vary from those norms. He writes: Outside the Reality Machine READER: Mr. Rappoport, why do you sometimes write fiction/satire? ME: Because if you think non-rational reality can be solved simply […]
STEADY YOURSELF: When Bad Stuff Happens, Do This
One of my favorite investing quotes is from the late, great Jack Bogle, founder of Vanguard and creator of the index fund. In good times and, especially in bad, I love this quote. You know from my piece yesterday that investors have a way of doing the opposite of what they should. For example, when […]

TRUST THE SCIENCE? CDC Revises ANOTHER Testing Rule
How are Americans supposed to “trust the science” when the CDC keeps changing what it is? The CDC just made a major change to its testing regimen that is probably the largest change since last year when it lowered the cycle rate for PCR tests.

If It Ain’t Broke Don’t Try and Fix It
You and me? We’re the same. We’re simple people. We like simple quotes that wrap up life in a tidy package with a red ribbon. Here’s a couple of quotes I’m thinking about this morning. “If it’s too good to be true, then it probably is,” and, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” Simple. […]
