BLS does not mean Bureau of Labor Statistics, but B*llSh*t.
Those numbers have been massaged, Seasonally adjusted and whatever for political reason and for a long time.

The Federal Reserve plays the same game. They reward politics who do their bindings by lowering rates like they did before the election. And they keep them high since Trump have been elected.

The narratif is always on their side:
The Biden-flation was transitory.
Tariffs might be inflationary in the future.
What a joke!

The concept the CCP does not understand is malinvestment.
Malinvestment is a term used in Austrian business cycle theory to describe badly allocated investments caused by artificially low interest rates.

China is build on a mountain of debt. The CCP took the saving of the people and used it to build an industrial complex needed to build a housing bubble. Then when everything collapse, the CCP told them that it was their fault (“House is for living” – Xi) and that their savings are lost. This show the superiority of the Chinese democracy.

They still have a problem, unemployment. So now they lend the savings of the people to foreign countries (“China’s full year trade surplus is projected to exceed $1.3 trillion”) so they can postpone the closing of their manufactures. The win-win strategy, we give you the money to buy our products.
And once again, the superiority of the Chinese democracy will show when African countries will default on their debt.

“Latent Chinese consumer demand is massive.”
You do not consume when you do not trust the government. Who knows? It can decide to lockdown the whole country and you will lose everything.

“Beijing now holds a foreign currency reserve of $3.3 trillion”
“At the same time, Beijing has reduced its US Treasury holding to less than $750 billion”
Me too, I have put 2/3 of my savings in Indian rupee. LOL.

But we should not be to harsh with the Chinese democracy and the CCP. Lately, they took a great leap forward and decided to allow the people to have as much children as they want. We probably need to wait a century before this kind of policy will be apply to the USA.

“Austrian neoliberal economics is disastrous; the anemic economies of the West are proving it.”

You really look like you know what you are talking about.

And i will not even try to explain to you that the west has central planning since the creation of central banks.

As much as you know about capital structure
“the largest auto manufacturers in the G7 have enormous debts”
It is government incentives which decide if a company finance its capital through stocks or debt.
Is there any reason why you chose auto manufacturers?

Or the difference between “approval ratings” and “trust” in the rule of law, personal freedom and private property right.
But of course, living in a dictatorship, we can forgive you for thinking that there is no difference between the gov and the system.
Even powerful Chinese billionaires send their children and their money abroad. How is Lanlan doing?

By the way, why every time one shows the reality of the Chinese dream, the answer is:”Look at the USA!”?
Cannot deny, cannot argue, so divert?

subverting rising political movements such as right-wing populism.

From Argentina, through USA and to the whole Europe, it is already done.

Why 2% of the population is at the center of everything from power, to media, to finance?
Are we a planet occupied by lizards?

” so many Jews just can’t get with a program that is based on genocide and ethnic cleansing – the very thing they learned as children to abhor”
Yes, of course. Nothing to do with the fact that they feel that the tables are turning, that the “antisemitic” slur does not work anymore.

I am not sure that this hit piece against JHS is of any value.

Mileï is not an anacap.
JHS is an old man who want to see his dream before he dies.
It is human to have dreams and it is human to see what we want to see.

JHS will probably be the most contrite (apologetic) when he will realize how Mileï destroyed the reputation of anacap and austro-lib.

“I would argue that a people’s capacity to get rid of an incompetent or corrupted leader is much more precious than the illusion of having elected him in the first place.”

” It produced Xi Jinping. I wish my democratically elected president would be this kind of leader.”

Try to get rid of Mao or Xi and you will discover the beauty of a totalitarian and authoritarian one-party-system.

What would “crush left wing terrorism” involve, exactly?

Kill everybody with a Palestinian flag.

The World Doesn’t Hate Jews, the World Hates Israel

Saying that, is like saying:
The World Doesn’t Hate Nazis, the World Hates Germany

Thank you Mr JOSE ALBERTO NINO

Massie losing in the 2026 primaries means he has an open calendar to run for the Republican presidential nomination in 2028.

He has burnt too many bridges to run nationally as a Republican. On the other hand…

Massie’s anti-MAGA record is a excellent fit to seek the Democrat party presidential nomination. The likes of Hakeem Jefferies, Ilhan Omar, and Rashida Tlaib are natural allies for his campaign.

PEACE 😇

Serious?

The day “they” just bought the last non-compliant social network (TikTok).
Even Elon had to apologize for Grok telling the truth.

They have in common to have stolen the land of another people and then genocide them.
They have the same ethos of the “chosen people”, the “manifest destiny”
They cannot point Palestine on a map and they do not care about “sand niggers”.

And one last thing, they are ignorant. Ignorance is strength.

I am an anacap, austrian-libertarian, whatever…
I usually rant about the socialist biais of writers on UNZ.

But today, i can say that i fully agree with this article.

Trump had his chance to negotiate when he took the world by surprise with his tarifs.
But then he was stab in the back by “The Bank”.
From that point, he should have reassess his strategy. He has not and now he is losing everything.

That is not the way it goes.

People get afraid, troubles appear and everybody will ask for a”strong man” to do something.
If you are lucky, you’ll get Poutin. If you are not you’ll get communism or fascism.

“Putin or fascism. I’ll take either with sincere gratitude.”

Since you posted so many comments, i thought you may want to keep the first amendement.

How the hell can we have a Jewish Mayors!?

Euh… Sorry.
I meant: How the hell can we have a Muslim Mayors!?

How many bomb Muslim countries have dropped on USA?
Do Americans have any idea why they hate Muslims?
Do they know anything about Islam?
I mean, who told them?
The same who teach them WWII History?

It is true that Americans are anti-semite since Arabs are semites and Jews are Ukrainians.

Any way we will prevail because Allah is with us. We hit WTC 1 and 2 and Allah destroyed WTC 7.

“The argument I found must compelling in White Identity Politics is that nonwhites have no incentive to drop their identity politics, thus it is unlikely that they will do so, and thus whites must develop their own identity politics to survive. ”

It is not a political fight. It is a cultural fight.
That is why you are losing because you culture has been hijacked by Hollywood.

“the first step was the fratricidal war in Europe from 1914 to 1945”

The first step was when the Sanhedrin nailed Jesus to the cross.
But some say the first step was the ten plagues of Egypt.

Brexit has nothing to do with it.

UK is still part of the European Court of Human Rights.
It is ECHR that force feed UK and EU with illegals.

Do not try to free yourself from Big Brother because Freedom is Slavery.
Instead keep fighting Eastasia, our enemy.

What is the weather in Tel Aviv? Moshe?

What is Democratic socialism?

Is it when 51% of the voters agree to take the money of the rest of the population using armed forces?

Muslims rape girls and Zionists have influence.

But then, who is doing the ethnic cleansing and genocide?
The good news is that, after the genocide, there will be no more rape.

Zionists like Epstein do not rape girls.
What they like is total domination of defenseless people
like young children

You might want to learn a little bit of History before talking about it.
But I guess racism is enough to make up your mind.

“In 614, Jerusalem fell to an invading Sassanid army. The Persians (Who were NOT Muslims at that time) looted the city, and are said to have massacred its 90,000 Christian inhabitants”
“The Jews, who were persecuted in their Christian-controlled homeland, initially aided the Persian conquerors”

“The Muslim troops besieged the city some time in November 636. Instead of relentless assaults on the city, they decided to press on with the siege until the Byzantines ran short of supplies and a bloodless surrender could be negotiated

“In 1094 (460 years later!), Pope Urban II used spiced-up and exaggerated tales (with a bit of accuracy) of the sufferings of their fellow Christians in the Holy Land”
“Saladin’s triumph was, however, far less violent than that of the medieval knights of the First Crusade (1095-1099 CE), and for this, he has been endlessly romanticized by Muslims and Christians alike.”

Of course, if the author is not jewish, he can only lie…
