A Question From Me on Full Reserve Banking
I thought my followers would be interested in reading this:
Me:
A question on full-reserve banking: The Austrian business cycle focuses on the errors in the exponential expansion in credit caused by the fractional-reserve banking system and artificial low interest rates created by central banks. However, couldn’t this same problem with speculative bubbles, boom and bust cycles, and...

Feminism
When a feminist claims you want to ignore rape culture and says you want to forgive all rapists, you know they are truly arrogant. To claim someone of something so evil is a tad funny. These people, man. Insanity.

I really enjoy riding my bike. I love bikes in general. All of them. I used to work for DK Bicycles actually, and it was my favorite job. The people were great and loved their job as well. We all got along. I came to OU then and started looking for work with the local bike shops but none of them really seemed interested in hiring. I later found out why.
The bike shops in the...

The War in Afghanistan was not a result of capitalistic disputes. If you could explain, that would be good.
I meant to link Iraq, fuck it. Capitalism uses force to secure property. The US is a capitalist on the global stage and it uses force to secure its empire.

On Economies of Scale and Monopolies
In response to this post, I got a few questions claiming that my logic was faulty, because economies of scale wouldn’t exist in a free-market economy. Assuming the first was a troll I ignored it, but I got 2 more anons with the same question. Maybe it was the same person, but I’m making a post explaining that economies of scale would still exist in a free-market. They would just exist to a...

Marine murdered by SWAT in home

Read this entire harrowing story - from the home invasion of an innocent family with no criminal history and no illegal substances in their home, to the shooting and subsequent willful negligence that left a protective, hard-working father to die.

To the extent the question posed by that traumatized child dealt...

Fiat Money is False Money and Leads to Failure
It’s obviously no mystery that the only reason the U.S. Dollar, and most of the world’s currencies, have any value is because the central banks and governments say it does. After we left the gold standard, there was no commodity to back the money or regulate the money supply.
Now, it was no mistake that we left the gold standard. As our economy would continue to grow and grow, the money supply...
