‘It’s a beautiful thing, the destruction of words.’ from Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949) In the low-ceilinged canteen , deep under ground, the lunch queue jerked slowly forward. The room was already very full and deafeningly noisy. From the grille at the counter the steam of stew came pouring forth, with a sour metallic smell which did not quite overcome the fumes of Victory Gin. On the far side of the room there was...

The destruction of the worldwide economic order in the wake of World War II encouraged world leaders in 1944 to form a meeting to generate alternatives. This conference, referred to as Bretton Woods, resulted in the development of a new global fixed exchange rate regime with the U.S. dollar playing a central role. Under the Bretton Woods system, an ounce of gold could be bought at a fixed international rate of $35 per ounce (+/- 28 Gram). Because this fixed […]...

Consider the title page of The Economist in 1988, (9 jan. 1988) presented above, which insinuated another world money and noticeably included “2018” on the spread. Most realize that the financial world often arrange things decades ahead of time. The euro currency is such a case. “THIRTY years from now, Americans, Japanese, Europeans, and people in many other rich countries, and some relatively poor ones will...
In a world that sometimes seems enamored with central planning and government control, Friedrich Hayek’s ideas on liberty and individualism continue to shine as a beacon of hope and reason. His seminal work, “The Road to Serfdom,” serves as a stark warning against the perils of planned societies and is a testament to the enduring importance of defending individual freedom. Hayek’s Rejection of Planned Societies: Friedrich...

It was Rodin who stated that “Man never invented anything new, only discovered things.” Although it’s correct to say that certain symbols have been man-made for a particular purpose, it’s just as correct to argue that everything is somehow inspired by the natural world around us, by the forms of nature, plants, animals, the elements. Even a reaction against the fluid forms of nature is usually inspired by a desire to offer an alternative. Occasionally the revelation of a natural […]...
IMF
The IMF and the World Bank, were created at a meeting of global financiers and politicians held at Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, in 1944. Their announced goals were to facilitate international trade and to stabilize the exchange rates of national currencies. The unannounced goals were quite different. They were the elimination of the gold-exchange standard as the basis of currency valuation and the establishment of world...
James M. Wright’s Hurricane in a Teacup: The Relentless Myth of Man-made Climate Change challenges the widespread belief in man-made climate change, dissecting what he calls a politically driven agenda that claims to have scientific backing. Published in 2021, this book suggests that the climate movement’s ultimate goal is less about environmental preservation and more about advancing socialist economic transformations on a global scale. With a...
Pavlov made a significant discovery: the conditioned reflex could be developed most easily in a quiet laboratory with a minimum of disturbing stimuli. Every trainer of animals knows this from his own experience; isolation and the patient repetition of stimuli are required to tame wild animals. Pavlov formulated his findings into a general rule in which the speed of learning is positively correlated with quiet and isolation. The totalitarians have followed this rule. They know that they can condition their […]...

FDR once said “In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way.” He was in a good position to know. We believe that many of the major world events that are shaping our destinies occur because somebody or somebodies have planned them that way. If we were merely dealing with the law of avenges, half of the events...

Mr. Lipinski wrote a controversial book, “The Horus Lodge,” (Die Horus Loge) or rather the statements of his grandfather are very controversial in this book. These statements contain an eerie echo to Rolf Naumann’s narrative that formed the basis for the Maier files series. Mr. Lipinski’s grandfather, Herbert Lipinski, a German-Polish translator for Willy Brandt, Erich Honecker, German industrialist Berthold Beitz, and above all – and...
The Evolution of Civilizations expresses two dimensions of its author, Carroll Quigley, that most extraordinary historian, philosopher, and teacher. In the first place, its scope is wide-ranging, covering the whole of man’s activities throughout time. Second, it is analytic, not merely descriptive. It attempts a categorization of man’s activities in sequential fashion so as to provide a causal explanation of the stages of civilization. Quigley coupled enormous capacity for work with a peculiarly “scientific” approach. He believed that it should […]...
