Here is the result of America’s neofeudalism: soaring wealth and income inequality.

Let’s spin the time machine back to the late Middle Ages, at the height of feudalism, and imagine we’re trying to get a boatload of goods to the nearest city to sell. As we drift down the river, we’re constantly being stopped and charged a fee for transiting one small fiefdom after another. When we finally reach the city, there’s an entry fee for bringing our goods to market.   Continue reading “To Understand America’s Neofeudal Economy, Start with Extortion”

A new study published by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on August 20 reveals that the militarization of law enforcement in the United States does not make communities safer nor does it enhance officer safety.

Study author Jonathan Mummolo conducted a statistical analysis on crime rates and officer safety data from Maryland, using an expired law — in effect between 2010-2014 — required that police agencies submit reports on how often they use SWAT teams.  Continue reading “New Report Details US Public Less Safe Under Militarized Police”

We were sitting at the house waiting for a day of clear weather and got lucky Saturday last week. I asked Henry if he had any good ideas of what the hell to do and he nailed it, a 3 V8 engine flat bottom rocket ship flying through part the Rouge River system at over 50 MPH, with an included dinner half way through.

Don’t get to see my people with great big smiles on their faces too often, but Saturday had all of us grinning ear to ear, hauling ass in a friggin’ jet boat doing 360’s at 50 mph. Talk about some goddamn fun, kids….   Continue reading “Rouge River Rafting – Mark, Henry, and Laura get a little wet”

A parasitic sickness known as “kissing bug” disease is spreading quickly in the United States.  So far, about 300,000 have been infected in the U.S. with the disease that could be life-threatening.

Blood-sucking bugs are spreading a dangerous parasite. Kissing bugs spread the infection by biting a human, typically on their face (hence the nickname – kissing bugs), and then defecating near the wound. The parasite can then get rubbed into the open wound or get into the body if someone touches their mouth or eyes afterward. The excrement of a kissing bug contains the parasite that causes the virus; a disease known as Chagas.  Continue reading “Parasitic ‘Kissing Bug’ Disease Is Spreading In The US: 300K Infected”

There’s clearly a long history here, so Geopolitics Alert has compiled the most blatant examples from Europe to Asia. We’ll start with the obvious wars first.   Continue reading “Sorry America, McCain Was No Hero, Here’s a List of Wars He Begged For That Proves It”

A world-famous doctor who offered her naturopathic services for free was forced to close her clinic after the Philippine equivalent of the FDA went after her and she received a wave of death threats.

Dr. Farrah Agustin-Bunch went to a conventional medical school, but the fact that doctors are encouraged to prescribe treatments to patients that haven’t been scientifically proven to be safe and effective made her uneasy and ultimately pushed her toward naturopathy. Her late father was the famous herbalist sir Antonio Augustin, who established the first natural cancer treatment center in the Philippines in 2000.   Continue reading “Naturopathic doctor forced to shut her clinic after wave of death threats and government regulator pressure… medical freedom is DEAD”
