Wouldn't be surprised if it was $7 quadrillions, actually.

A very strange melding of a philosophy based on the non-aggression principle with a philosophy based on centrality of power, will, and force. Someone here is confused.

Yes, someone here is confused, and it's the public. But that is the purpose of ANY con: to confuse the public in order to manipulate their minds so as to serve the purposes of the sponsors. Walter Lippmann in 1922 used the phrase "manufacture of consent" for this, as being the new method of controlling the public, as opposed to the old method, which was by means of physical force. Instead of constantly terrorizing the public into obeying the aristocracy's government, its constantly deceiving the public into obeying the aristocracy's government. And this new method was invented by people such as Edward Bernays (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Bernays), who was extremely well-paid by his billionaire-clients.

Americans are already taking Social Security cuts. I talked to a guy who said instead of the 1600$ a month he has been saving to get, he was given 1200$ a month INSTEAD, and told to get lost or else. And this AT SAME TIME, he said illegals were getting 700 bucks CASH down in Long Beach California (probably on his expense & others). The Poor man was Livid. I encouraged him to go look for a good lawyer and sue their criminal asses since that is a broad day gangsterism...

And BTW Libya was ALSO debt FREE under Gaddafi til Hill-billy-Larry came along and F-ed that country aaall up.

For Norway to be this good and not have the proper military to protect that wealth amount to 3 times nothing. The Cathars back in the 11th century or something were educated, wealthy & Aall, but the Catholics came and exterminated them to the very last. The same thing happens to Gaddafi. You would not believe the good that poor guy did for his country, Free college education, free housing, free medical care, free this and that since Libya not only had oil but lots of precious minerals & metals too. He also amassed 150 tones of gold I think and started rallying African countries to start a gold based currency that would have buried the $ should it come to light. Of course they never let it. The Scum Qataris stole the gold after the US robbed that poor country. etc.

The US F ed Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya etc, Now a days if a country does not have A Military, they Got Virtually NOTHING. Just look at Russia or China. The US is NOT phaQing with them. it keeps on running its trap with bs and sabotaging their economies but MILITARILY?!?! it KNows better...

...Furthermore, Americans are never going to revolt. They are too medicated, too drugged, either via food additives or simply illicit drugs, booze or big pharma crap use, etc. The Biden let in 20 million illegals without any vetting what so phaQing EVer. Gave them Tax payers money by the 1000s (one of the scumbags was flashing 100$ bills on a vid that went viral), were given American jobs. According to Zerohedge about 4 million jobs went to illegals and 1.6 million full time jobs were taken away from Americans!!!!!!!! etc etc etc etc. yet those Cowards DID NOT TWITCH‼️ I mean what would it take for them to get off their fat asses and walk their worthless talk?!?!?! what would it take⁉️ The US military has about 2.4 million troops including the reservists. Half of which are scattered aaall over the phaQing world. They are not even here to "protect the land".

Eric, I have an honest tiny question for you:

What would you call a 20 million unvetted thugs ushering into the country without any medical or immigration formalities whatsoever?!?!?

I don't know about you but I call it: A MILITARY INVASION. Yet the pretentious cowards including the gun brandishing stupid Kooks did not move. There goes your "revolution"‼️

The Back then 3% were RAW, had A Heart and were UNTAINTED. They also had HONOR and as far as material wealth, were poor. So they had nothing to lose. That's how they kicked The British outta the US.

Nothing is "AI generated" in my articles. As regards the sentences I write, they are structured with great care so as to pack as much meaning into as few words as possible. This necessitates sub-clauses, and sub-sub-clauses, and sub-sub-clauses, but doing that clarifies the logical structure of what I am saying. I don't write for readers who find that challenging. The reason I don't is that if a person won't appreciate the logic in what I write, that person will not appreciate what I write, since what I write is solidly documented arguments which disprove what almost all news-media are alleging. The logical structure is just as important as is the factual documentation. The audience for such articles is small, and I understand this. But that is what I do, because nobody else does it, and I think it needs to be done.
