NWO: United We Stand

Just today, I found out about a ten-minute short film made by independent filmmaker Tom Antos entitled NWO: United We Stand via InfoWars. It's about US soldiers who are trying to thwart an alien attack, yet cause collateral damage along the way. It also deals with what it would take to unite the world; it depicts aliens as that uniting force.

Here is the movie. Enjoy.

What I'm Working On

Hello, folks.

What am I working on for this blog? Here are some things:

1. A piece on same-sex marriage, the State, libertarianism, Christianity, and how these four things intersect.

2. The continuing parts in a series on the meaning of liberalism and how it relates to Christianity.

Look for these in the coming days.

Pat Buchanan on the South and the Union

Patrick J. Buchanan, one of the few intelligent conservative writers (even when I disagree with him on certain issues), writes on the South, the Union, and progressives.

Says Buchanan:

"...no matter the progress made over half a century, they do not trust the South to deal fairly and decently with its black citizens, without a club over its head. They do not believe the South has changed in its heart from the days of segregation.

They think the South is lying in wait for a new opportunity to disfranchise its black voters. And they think black Southerners are unable to defend their own interests – without Northern liberal help.

In this belief there are elements of paranoia, condescension and bigotry.

"Many liberals not only do not trust the South, some detest it. And many seem to think it deserves to be treated differently than the more progressive precincts of the nation.

"Consider Wednesday's offering by Washington Post columnist Harold Meyerson. The South, he writes, is the home of 'so-called right-to-work laws' and hostility to the union shop, undergirded by 'the virulent racism of the white Southern establishment,' a place where a 'right-wing antipathy toward workers' rights' is pandemic.

"The South is the 'the heartland of cheap-labor America. ... When it wants to slum, business still goes to the South.' Then there are those 'reactionary white Republican state governments.'"

I recommend that you read the piece. It exposes how much racism the modern left has toward the South, how much distrust still exists between the Northerners and the Southerners. Deep down, we as Christians must recognize sooner or later that we must love our enemies (Matthew 5:43-48), as Jesus Christ commanded,  even when we loathe their culture or behavior with a deep loathing. We must not let the troubles of centuries past to conflict with the possibility of restored fellowship. Also, it would help to reconsider much of the established history we have been taught, as that would clear up many, if not all, of our problems 

Lew Rockwell and Bill Birnes on "Dr. Feelgood"

Lew Rockwell and author Bill Birnes did an interview recently on Dr. Max "Feelgood" Jacobson, who administered amphetamines to the soon-to-be president John F. "Jack" Kennedy. Rockwell and Birnes explore how this changed the course of history.

Here is the interview. Enjoy.

  

Laws You Didn't Know Existed (and Didn't Know You Broke)

Lee Ann McAdoo at InfoWars reports on laws that almost no one knew existed and were broken without knowledge by the lawbreakers.

The Truth About Syria

Ben Swann of Full Disclosure exposes the truth about Syria and nothing but the truth. It seems that the groups trying to overthrow the Assad regime are aligned with al-Qaeda, all while receiving US aid.

Here is his report. Enjoy.

Milton Friedman: Freshwater Keynesian

David Stockman, former Director of the Office of Management and Budget under President Ronald Reagan, has these words of wisdom on the late free-market economist Milton Friedman:

At the end of the day, Friedman jettisoned the gold standard for a remarkable statist reason. Just as Keynes had been, he was afflicted with the economist’s ambition to prescribe the route to higher national income and prosperity and the intervention tools and recipes that would deliver it. The only difference was that Keynes was originally and primarily a fiscalist, whereas Friedman had seized upon open market operations by the central bank as the route to optimum aggregate demand and national income.

There were massive and multiple ironies in that stance. It put the central bank in the proactive and morally sanctioned business of buying the government’s debt in the conduct of its open market operations. Friedman said, of course, that the FOMC should buy bonds and bills at a rate no greater than 3 percent per annum, but that limit was a thin reed.

Indeed, it cannot be gainsaid that it was Professor Friedman, the scourge of Big Government, who showed the way for Republican central bankers to foster that very thing. Under their auspices, the Fed was soon gorging on the Treasury’s debt emissions, thereby alleviating the inconvenience of funding more government with more taxes.
