God Protect Us from Metaphors |
A fallacy sometimes expands, and runs through the whole texture of a long and elaborate theory. More frequently, it shrinks and contracts, assumes the guise of a principle, and lurks in a word or a phrase.
"May God protect us from the devil and from metaphors!" was the exclamation of Paul-Louis.[1] And it is difficult to say which of them has done most mischief in this world of ours. The devil, you will say; for he has put the spirit of plunder into all our hearts. True, but he has left free theSaturday, October 17, 2020 |

The Crime Against Silver |
In 1873, the Fourth Coinage Act was enacted by the US Congress. Western silver miners labeled this measure the "Crime of '73" because it stopped the printing of US silver dollars. The US had, unofficially, abandoned its bimetallic standard in favor of a monometallic one – gold.Saturday, August 8, 2020 |

A Great Wealth Transfer In Ancient Egypt |
2000 years before Christ, Ancient Egypt enjoyed the benefits of a sophisticated social structure with much of the wealth and trade of the then known world. It was an economy that had been built on grain production and produce from the fertile and agriculturally rich Nile River valley and Nile Delta regions.
An estimated 95% of Egypt was unusable desert with little or no rainfall; but regardless of rainfall and local climatic conditions, the Nile river, feed from the vast sub continent of Africa, flooded annually and ran year in and year out, providing a guaranteed water supply to the rich soil of the valley and delta regions.Wednesday, April 8, 2020 |

MEXICO’S OIL INDUSTRY CONTINUES TO DISINTEGRATE: PEMEX Suffers $18 Billion Loss |
The situation in Mexico’s oil industry continues to rapidly disintegrate as falling oil production and rising costs resulted in an $18 billion fourth-quarter loss for the state-run oil company, PEMEX. Part of the reason for the huge financial loss at PEMEX was the fall in the value of the Mexican Peso. While PEMEX’s costs are in Pesos, it sells crude oil and purchases petroleum products in Dollars. Because the Mexican Peso declined 8% versus the Dollar, it put a huge strain on the company’s yFriday, March 2, 2018 |

Well, Trump and Russia, since the Golden Golem of Greatness is in league with Vladimir Putin to loot the world, or something like that.
