Before you answer the question, consider Jethro’s village. Imagine an early farming village from 10,000 years ago, where the people are able to grow an excess of food, mainly wheat grain, year after year. There’s enough food for everyone and…

Before you answer, when it comes to war, shouldn’t those who have the most to lose be the ones who fight and die first? If you’re one of the poorest 50% of Americans, you share 2.5% of the USA’s wealth.…

We both know that immigration systems across the Western world are a bit of a mess, but whatever your views, park them for less than two minutes. Obviously, hitting a big target is easier than a small one, so why…

Which natural resource is the most valuable? Rare earths, oil, diamonds, gold? Those are some of the most obvious contenders. So, which one do you think or is it something else altogether? These are all estimates in US dollars, but…

I will answer the question, though not in the way you expect, but first a question for you. Who creates the massive wealth in the US economy? Yes, of course, the workers. Entrepreneurs may form the businesses that employ them,…

The wealthy will tell us that communism is wrong because it’s not fair for wealthy people to work hard and then have to share their money with lazy poor people. Don’t get caught up in their nonsense. The truth is…

Some professions, such as lawyer, physician and financial adviser, have a fiduciary duty of care to those they serve. Meaning they always have to do what is best for those they serve. Even if it’s against their own best interests.…

Most Americans get taxed at source, so the government takes their cut of income tax before the workers get paid. It’s different for most wealthy Americans, though. They get to declare what they’ve earned, in effect allowing them to choose…

A CEO seems pretty important, but would a business miss them for one day? No, someone else would step up and make the decisions. And let’s face it, most of their decisions are no-brainers or pretty inconsequential in the medium…

People aren’t always honest with this question, even with themselves. A better way to ask is “What do you hate?” We only ever hate things that we’re scared of. We never hate things that excite us. Those are the things…

Most people are taxed at source, meaning their taxes are deducted from their earnings before they receive their wages. If that’s you, the government knows exactly what you earned and if you think you’ve been taxed too much, you have…

Remember when your favorite sports team was YOUR team? Of course not, for decades they’ve simply been another way for the wealthy to make even more wealth for themselves. Every team splits into three parts. At the very top are…

I bet you’re thinking, “No, but those other suckers sure are. Why did they vote for that person or that party? Why can’t they see that they’re being played?” I also bet that you’re just as easily duped as them.…

In 1954, the American Petroleum Institute believed their products were creating pollution problems and by 1968 they had confirmed a link between burning fossil fuels and global warming. In 1959, an internal report at the Shell oil company stated that…

First, let’s be clear that across the Western world, the immigration system is broken. The refugee convention was born from the chaos in Europe after WW2, when the world was still relatively disconnected. The world has changed massively since then…

Out of those four, who do you trust most? Johnny, the $60k/pa Republican voter, Gary, the $60k/pa Democrat voter, Guy, the multi-billionaire Republican voter or Rupert, the multi-billionaire Democrat voter? Put them in order of who you trust most first…

Yes, but I wouldn’t get too excited, unless you’re already very wealthy. Firstly, let’s ignore whether it’s right for Americans to take oil that’s already been stolen once from poor Venezuelans. That’s how the world works again. Fox eats rabbit.…
