How does the dot connector see it everytime
a) read in Orwellian
math, counting
c) law of opposites
in definition of negative sum game at least 3-4% gdp collapse rate for 8 years
compounding, negative business formation
the Orwellian occult scam, called min wage, was for increasing the payroll tax take
which comes out of all slaves, redistribution, the output. And likely the lowest
tier of low pay workers. Some workers had to quit work or reduce hours at higher
min wage because it cost them too much lost subsidy.
I think some of the most insidious tax rates will be on the single low income with no deductions.
I don't think they scaled taxes down 1/5 with 500% inflation since 1984.
I remember starting salary 22k in 1982 I netted 14k after tax which left $400 a month for
everything after rent and get to work car so I can get to work to pay the tax to get the car.
Every system of inputs predicts the output from counting.
The output will always be the opposite the occult chant.
Where do the socialists think chelsea's 40M wedding and 15M malinvestment
fees for friends salary came from? Did they guess redistributionists?
Pigs to the slaughter.

“I’ve been traveling a lot and I’m seeing a lot of desperation everywhere, a lot of sad desperation. I was just at an airport and, even down to this, a woman selling Southwest Airlines credit cards, standing like a robot. ‘Have-you-signed-up-yet. Are-you-a-member-of-the-club.’ It was tragic. This is a mature woman with a beautiful face and life and I’m like, ‘how did she get there? What has happened to this culture that she’s now standing as a robot like this?’
They are sucking our ability to make an income that is compatible with what you need to. So I’m getting a little frightened as I travel.
On the other side of it, when I go to New York and I see some of the billionaires–it’s the other side! Endless. You know, they’re fighting over pieces of artwork. It’s gotten to the point where the have and the have-nots here is breaking.

112 million in the private sector labor force – this is largely the 1 out of 3 supporting the rest of the country
32 million government workers – this is supported from funding coming from tax revenues
94 million not in the labor force – these are people that can work but are not looking
70 million cannot work – this is mostly children
16 million unemployed – looking for work and unable to find a job

I have said it many times in these pages: economic growth in the U.S. economy can only occur when the general standard of living for the average American improves. Sadly, each day, we see more and more evidence suggesting the opposite.
--Why Does Keynesian Fantasyland Persist?
The power of Keynes is that it gives not just politicians and economists but ordinary people the hope that they can continue doing what they are doing without making the wrenching changes that they desperately fear they must make. Just sit back and let us do a bit of stimulus here, and a bit of quantitative easing there, and presto, it's recovery summer! Because everyone wants to keep doing what they are doing until there is no longer any possible hope to continue in the old way.
The orthodox Austrian explanation of the business cycle centers on the idea that a recession is an inevitable consequence of the previous easy credit boom, because investments that looked solid in the boom are suddenly revealed as malinvestments. Thus the people and resources marshalled into the lines of business now revealed as malinvestments must be liquidated, sooner or later. But nobody wants to hear that! They don't want to confront what they know they must eventually do. They want to continue in the old ways, and they sensibly elect politicians that will let them do it.
Bill Gross: Low interest rates have created 'zombies' instead of curing the economy
The mechanism of creative destruction, the heart of capitalistic progress, has been neutralized, with old or ailing companies on life support and new investment stifled.
Cheap debt has kept near-death companies alive
Years of low interest rates have gradually created a horde of zombie corporations, and central banks need to realize that near-zero rates aren't a cure for what ails the economy, wrote Bill Gross in his most recent letter to investors.

But now the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) released a study that gives an additional major reason for how low long-term interest rates lead to concentration of corporate power that then drags down productivity growth and economic growth on the production side of the economy. https://wolfstreet.c...ty-growth-nber/
The study “provides a new theoretical result that low interest rates encourage market concentration by giving industry leaders a strategic advantage over followers, and this effect strengthens as the interest rate approaches zero,” the authors say.
Via this market concentration, low interest rates are then associated with “reduced dynamism, a widening productivity-gap between industry leaders and followers, and slower productivity growth.”

People diagnosed with an intellectual disability, including low IQ, are often able to successfully work full time. When an intellectually disabled person is unable to maintain full-time employment

Authored by Gary Barnett via The Future of Freedom Foundation,
There can be no greater stretch of arbitrary power than to seize children from their parents, teach them whatever the authorities decree they shall be taught, and expropriate from the parents the funds to pay for the procedure.
— Isabel Paterson
Compulsory schooling is a travesty. To call it education is absurd. Real education is lifelong learning as an individual, while compulsory public schooling is the indoctrination of children as a collective exercise to bring all down to the lowest level. Prisons called schools are simply the forced means to stifle individual brilliance while promoting sameness and monotony. The result of this brainwashing is meant to teach children to obey orders, and to be satisfied spending their lives in a virtual cage of ignorance, to never become entrepreneurs and dissenters.
With the recent death of the great John Taylor Gatto, the loss of a giant is evident. He was not only a pioneer in real education, but he discovered the true nature and genius that exists in so many children. The controllers who use the government school system as a way to dumb down the masses fully understand this potential genius. They are very fearful of it. So fearful in fact, that more than 100 years ago, they designed a mandatory school system as a way to control the common people. By training them to be good citizens and members of a collective society instead of individuals, the few could continue to control the many.
The experiment called compulsory schooling, now referred to as “public education,” began in Massachusetts in 1852, and became widespread just after the turn of the twentieth century. By 1910 the majority of children were in public schools. Since that time “education” as administered by the state has been a horrible failure, if learning was the desired end. But learning and knowledge were never the goals of forced schooling; training the young to honor authority, discipline, and nationalism were the true goals sought. In that regard, public schooling has been completely successful. These institutions became the vehicle used to teach children to be managed instead of managing themselves. They have produced a soft society consumed by doubt and incompetence, and one that can function only as a mass.
In order to change this dynamic, a real education is necessary, but so long as parents continue to shirk their responsibility by allowing unknown state employees to raise and train their children, things can only get worse.
John Gatto knew that teaching reading, writing, and arithmetic could be accomplished in as few as 100 hours. The improvement of those skills would be self-taught at the appropriate time and place, as self-taught persons are far more advanced than those subject to and dependent on mass schooling. Any real study of most kids educated at home will expose this truth.
As I see it, it is up to parents to save their own children. That will not be an easy task, as most parents are products of the same state-schooling system that exists today, and were taught long ago not to rock the boat or question authority. Everything should be questioned, and everything should be scrutinized. Questioning authority is the bane of the state apparatus, which is the reason compulsory schooling was implemented in the first place. It continues unabated as the dominant training discipline of this country’s young.
Take a look around and you may be shocked. How many have lost their imagination? How many seek counseling? How many feel inadequate and consider suicide? How many do you know who manage their lives by taking prescription drugs? How many are bored, emotionally wrecked, and afraid? Most of those people, a very large portion of the population, can no longer function as individuals. Such behavior should be expected, as the product turned out by the mandatory government school system has little ability to think and act without guidance. That is a direct result of being a prisoner of state-sponsored indoctrination centers from infancy to adulthood. That is why public schooling is anathema to free-thinking, self-reliant, and responsible individuals.
Mass schooling guarantees a weak and compliant population, one that has lost the ability to think critically. It is an all-consuming addiction to mediocrity, and an escape from excellence. No society can continue to be free and prosper under such conditions. Why, as John Gatto asked, are we turning our kids over to total strangers who can mold their minds with state propaganda for twelve years? It is time for parents to take back their children, and rescue them from a life of dependency.
