There’s a study from S&P that Inequality Is Damaging the U.S. Economy. Of course, there are no specifics of how exactly rising income inequality is bad for the economy, but but since economics has mostly devolved into a leftist social science that has become indistinguishable from sociology, to have actual numbers and empirical evidence would… Continue reading More Wealth Inequality Bullshit

From Taki Magazine “greatest happiness for the greatest number” would become an argument for totalitarian ultra-veganism? hmmm… But being a utilitarian doesn’t mean you also have to be a leftist egalitarian . As a utilitarian, I believe in economic and social policy such as supply side economics as well as eugenics that will create an… Continue reading Utilitarianism Is Not Welfare Liberalism

The left is asking, “When is the next crisis? Is it Russia?” How about never? There won’t be a return of subprime or the mortgage meltdown. Nor will there be a tech bubble, or any sort of problem. Jut buy the dips and make easy $. That permanently high plateau Irving Fisher spoke about is… Continue reading The Meritocracy

But some are probably asking, “How can it be a slow news cycle with all that stuff happening?” The outcome of these events… Continue reading Investment Idea #1 with SVXY

Why can’t optimism over the economy and support of the fed coexist with HBD (human bio-diversity) and right-wing and libertarian ideologies of the blogosphere? Through the Grey Enlightenment, I’m trying to forge such a connection, but the results have been poor. With the exception of Reddit and a handful of sites, in general, there is… Continue reading Why Can’t Optimism Coexist with HBD?

Huge earnings from Tesla: Tesla reported adjusted earnings of $0.11 a share, beating Bloomberg’s consensus for earnings of $0.04 a share and loss of $0.26 a year ago. Revenue came in at $857.5 million, versus a consensus estimate for $813 million. Of course, the libs cry ‘socialism’ because Tesla got a loan and subsidies; the… Continue reading Tesla Reports Huge Earnings; Score One for America and Capitalism
