Twin-c Vanilla Spilla and Peter Schiff explain how government programs drive up college tuitions! Peter Schiff is an expert on the debate whether or not college is a viable route for young highschool graduates. Now immediately one would think that college is the answer, but these now because of all the government guaranteed student loans a child winds up being in debt upwards 100,000 grand when they graduate. And, it gets worse this debt can't even be wiped off in bankruptcy. So, these days make sure you can afford your education because otherwise your better off not going to school or moving out the damn country.

July 4th, 1776. A divided continental congress was forced to unite in a cry for independence against England when a handful of the bunch told England that they were through. Subsidies, high taxes, the imprisonment of political renegades, and the favoritism showed by those in power to their favorite producers had gone to far. The declaration was recieved with a myriad or responses, some in shock, others in wounded pride. The sum of the resulting confusion and chaos cannot be crammed into a mere short article so I will spare everyone the history lesson.
In the end, many people died for many different reasons. Some felt it was their duty, some thier wellbeing, and others for a crack at a name for themselves. In the end, a high death toll, an economical disaster, and a fractured idea of what to do next plagued the newly free people. In spite of the odds, the people got back onto their feet, and began to rebuid and regroup.
Less then a decade after the fighting ceased, all of that would come to nothing. Ideas of grandeur began to seep into the heads of the politically powerful. The idea that America needed to become an Empire became the driving factor into the minds of those that held the power, and the rest as they say, is history.
So here we are, celebrating the 235 year old demopublic. The conditions of today are no different that those found in 1776 – high taxes, corpatism, subsidies, iron clad rule, and enough regultation to make a drill sergeant cringe. Of course its not all bad – never was, and until the breaking point is reached, nor will it be. There is a plus side to America’s paciveness to its government, and that is the acknowledgement that violent revolutions only replace one tyrant with another. In point of fact, violent revolutions often bring forward the most misguided, and in the midst of the confusion, grants them power.
Personally I hate the idea that i find myself questioning things to the level that i do. Ignorance in many cases was bliss as it aloud me the simple minded belief that we were doing well as a country, and that we just hit a bump in the road. History is a very disturbing wake up call.
I say we stop this pattern. Nations come and go, and the US is no different having already proved herself more then apt to inheret the ideals of failing societies the world over. The truth is that the colonial experiment was hijacked by the American Experiment – ripped from the hands of the people and turned over to the hands of politicians and bureaucrats.
You see long before the Stars and Stripes, there was liberty, and i have become all to aware of the difference between the two. Many of our so called ‘leaders’ follow in the foosteps in their predecessors. Arrogantly assuming that a law bent on the futile notion of solving the foibles of the human condition was a possible task, they have enacted law upon law on themselves until liberty has become no more then a fleeting vision.
I would like to remind people on this day of where we came from and what made us. After 235 years, its time we grew up, and rid ourselves of the notion that socialism, and statist mindsets are the keys to ‘civilized living’. These are nothing more then theives shaking right hands with you and robbing you with their left. The truth is that no Nation nor Empire can ever exist in pusruance with the ideals of liberty – for that is something that can only truly be had and maintained by the individual.
So lets have a revolution. Screw the state and the horse it rode in on. Its power is great only because it carries the threat and use of force. Yet the people hold a far greated power – one that never ceases to rise against the odds and overcome, and that is the power of individuals truly united upon the foundations of human rights. Violence is not the answer and will solve nothing. You cannot force your fellow man to your views – thats the states job. So be better then that – set an example. Show them by example that civilization needs no force to exist save that used in true defense. Educate yourselves and never stop, for in the end, it will yeild far more benefit then gold.
In the immortal words of Frederic Bastiat “Away, then, with quacks and organizers! Away with their rings, and their chains, and their hooks, and their pincers! Away with their artificial methods! Away with their social laboratories, their governmental whims, their centralization, their tariffs, their universities, their State religions, their inflationary or monopolizing banks, their limitations, their restrictions, their moralizations, and their equalization by taxation! And now, after having vainly inflicted upon the social body so many systems, let them end where they ought to have begun—reject all systems, and try liberty” – The Law.

If only Dick Morris would tell us how he really feels about libertarians.
During a radio interview with Peter Schiff, a former economic adviser to Ron Paul’s presidential campaign, Dick Morris thought he’d be talking about his new book, and seemed annoyed when he found himself discussing trends within the Republican Party.
Schiff, who said he noticed that nearly a third of the people he met at CPAC came from the “Ron Paul/Gary Johnson wing” of the GOP, with the rest in the more traditional conservative camp of Mitt Romney, asked Morris how he thought this would play out in the presidential race.
“I strongly oppose Ron Paul,” Morris said. “I think he’s horrific. He wants us to end the War on Drugs. He wants us to end the War on Terror.”
“Do you think we’re winning the war on drugs?” Schiff interjected.
“No, because we’re not fighting it,” Morris replied.
“We’re not fighting it?” Schiff asked. “We don’t have enough laws against drugs?”
“No,” Morris replied. “We should drug test every high school student. We should drug test everybody that gets a student loan. Anybody that’s using drugs should not get a government student loan.”
Schiff argued that there was something vaguely socialist about the government giving out student loans in the first place, but Morris disagreed, and became increasingly annoyed.
“Peter, I’d like to talk about my book, which is ‘Revolt: How to Defeat Obama and Repeal his Socialist Programs,” Morris complained. “You know what, Peter? You talk to yourself for the next 15 minutes. That seems to be what you want to do.”
And with that, he hung up.

Ron Paul on Larry King Live with Robert Reich who is an unapologetic Keynesian. Sorry for the video stuttering during the first segment. King gave Reich the last word who used it to continue to spread the fallacy that Hoover was the cause of the Great Depression and FDR and the War got us out. It’s really too bad Ron Paul had no time to counter that falsehood, but I suppose Reich played the media game perfectly by making these points when he knew Paul had no more time.Ron Paul on Larry King Live with Robert Reich who is an unapologetic Keynesian.

For those market boosters who are prattling on about the possibility of a “jobless recovery,” I offer an invitation to join me for a breakfast of “fat-free bacon,” “eggless omelets,” and “no-carb bread.” As unappetizing as such a meal may sound, it would nevertheless offer more substance than the oxymoronic concept of an economic resurgence without job creation.
Those who do cling to the absurd belief that, absent exponential productivity gains, the economy can expand while workers are being laid off will undergo a massive test of their convictions now that it’s clear the employment picture is bleak. Today’s weaker-than-expected report on non-farm payrolls revealed that employers shed 263,000 jobs in September. The losses propelled the headline unemployment rate to a 26-year high of 9.8%. U6, the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ most complete measure of unemployment, has risen to a dismal 17%. This figure includes those people who want to work full time, but have simply given up looking, or who have accepted part-time work in the interim. As it is similar to the methodology used during the Great Depression, U6 offers better historical perspective on the severity of our current crisis.
Taken together with yesterday’s larger-than-expected pickup in unemployment claims (first time claims rose by 17,000 to 551,000), today’s report makes it certain that the job market is still contracting, even while some indicators like GDP and consumer confidence are moving in the opposite direction.
There is no question that the sense of panic has temporarily subsided. In recent interviews, Treasury Secretary Geithner has been almost giddy in his descriptions of the recovery – all the while crediting his own policies for averting disaster. Americans are once again taking the government’s bait by spending money they don’t have to buy things they can’t afford. Evidence of this trend was contained in data released earlier this week which showed that even while income growth was largely stagnant, U.S. consumers showed the biggest month-over-month increase in personal spending in ten years! With the same report showing a 25% drop in the savings rate, the source of the spending money is clear. But depleting savings and increasing borrowing does not a recovery make.For those market boosters who are prattling on about the possibility of a... more
