Free trade is good on average, but: 1. Protectionism declares production, which is at present condemned as fascist nazi sin against Gaia, to be righteous and good. Protectionism strikes at the moral superiority of progs, who think that shutting down factories, mines, and sawmills is inherently virtuous. 2 . International agreements like the Transpacific Partnership are not free trade, and impair people’s ability to form families and have children, which …

Trump’s healthcare plan
Trump has explained the free market part of his healthcare plan in detail. It is heavily influenced by the free market part of Singapore’s tremendously successful free market healthcare system. I have no doubt that if implemented as described, it is going to work and work well. Trumps plan for the free market healthcare system is great. But what about Singapore’s socialist healthcare system for the poor and unfortunate? Trump …
The perils of government intervention in health care.
It is mighty embarrassing if a sick person is turned away from hospital to die in the street because he has no money. So the kindly government insists that sick poor people be treated for free. But if the hospital is going to treat poor people for free, then the hospital is going to besieged by people with carefully memorized symptoms for vague and difficult to treat diseases who show …
Replacing Obamacare
The major problem with the American healthcare system is that it has no prices, making it a completely non market system. It also has a massive redistribution from whites to nonwhites, which wealth redistribution system disrupts the provision of healthcare. What tends to happen is a hospital treats a hundred illegal immigrants for morbid obesity, and they do not pay their bills, and then it treats one white male, and …
Nuclear Technological decline
The US no longer produces weapons grade plutonium. Supposedly this is a choice. It has asked other countries to not produce weapons grade plutonium, and to get rid of the weapons grade plutonium they do have. The economical way to destroy weapons grade plutonium is to burn it in nuclear reactors, to use it for power, which destroys some of it and irreversibly contaminates the rest with plutonium 240, making …
Civilization and dysgenesis
We may reasonably suppose that the first six civilizations were founded by high IQ peoples. Their homelands are now all occupied by low IQ peoples, as for example Egypt and the Indus Valley. And any smart people currently in the vicinity of the Indus valley are descended from foreign invaders who conquered a low IQ population that had lost or was losing the capability to operate cities and irrigation. The …

Fertility and corporal punishment
To 1933, wives in movies are never spanked by their husbands. From 1933 to 1945, wives in movies are sometimes spanked, but it is shocking, unexpected and unusual. From 1945 to 1963, wives in movies and on television are sometimes spanked and it is routine, respectable, and usual. For example in “I love Lucy” we are never shown a spanking on screen, but Lucy is regularly very afraid of receiving …
Report on moonshine
About a year ago, I produced thirty liters of moonshine. Tasted as if distilled from dead rats and kerosine Double distilled it. Still tasted as if distilled from dead rats and kerosine. Forgot about it for a year. After a year, tried it again. Not bad at all.
Trump explains crony capitalism to the masses
If you already know all the stuff that Trump is explaining, his speech is kind of dull, but for leftists and normals, it is full of shocking news, as for example the Obama policy of swiftly releasing violent immigrant criminals to continue predating on white people in order to drive us out, or simply kill us. That was pretty boring to me. Of course our rulers want us dead. Remember …
