Obama Doubles Aid To Dependent Dictators

Bill Walker 2010-01-08 04:00
Exclusive to STR   On December 16, 2009, to commemorate the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party, President Obama signed the omnibus bill which includes H.R. 3081. This stroke of a pen raised US foreign aid to $48.764 billion.  Official US foreign aid in 2006 totaled less than $23 billion . . . and that was a sharp rise from pre-Bushian times.   This official, or more precisely the...
Ron Paul, Tear Down That Wall!

Exclusive to STR November 20, 2007 Crypto-libertarians in the FBI, US Mint, and Secret Service have catapulted Ron Paul into a permanent media presence with their raid on the Liberty Dollar. Paul's fundraising machinery is unstoppable. Gentlemen, ladies, we face the hitherto unthinkable prospect: a tyrannical Ron Paul regime.

Exclusive to STR Three Branches of government, clueless yet sly Seven govern the Board, in their halls of stone Twelve Banks print fiat, doomed to die For 'copter' Bernanke, on his cell phone In the FOMC, where the budgets lie One Bank to rule them all, One Bank to mind them, One Bank to bring them all, and to inflation bind them
King George vs. Immigration

Bill Walker 2006-05-15 16:00
Exclusive to STR The Founding Fathers revolted against King George in part because he restricted immigration. Americans of the 1700s wanted more people to move here; more people to hire, more people to whom to sell goods and real estate. Those 18th-century farmers were smart enough to understand that you don't get rich by walling out your customers, employees, or co-workers. The Minutemen in 1776...
Many Are Cold But Few Are Frozen

Bill Walker 2005-05-23 16:00
I'm a humble, lovable (like Underdog), underpaid Research Assistant in a cell biology lab. One of my routine job duties is to freeze vials containing tens of millions of human cells and send them into the future. I also unfreeze cells from decades past, revive and grow them. I have personally revived cells from 1987; but the record must be somewhere in the early 1960s, when our crude freeze...
How to Fund Freedom
0
Bill Walker 2005-05-09 16:00
The techniques for funding tyranny are quite well-developed, one could almost say perfected. At present, the US government can withdraw any desired proportion of privately produced wealth simply by typing higher numbers into the Federal Reserve computers. This massive flow of wealth supplies the tyranny needs of two-thirds of the world's governments. Numerous backup systems are also available, in...

Those of us interested in building a free society have to face certain inconvenient facts about human psychology. One of the most inconvenient is that the majority of people are conspiracy theorists. Most people believe that there is a massive conspiracy by the rich and powerful to help and protect the average citizen.
Poor Bill Gates

Bill Walker 2005-05-03 16:00
Bill Gates is, by any objective standard, a desperately poor man. He does not possess the bare necessities of life. Bill Gates has no medical care worthy of the name; no cancer cures, no telomere reset viruses or oligos, no nanomachinery to undo the cardiac effects of decades of cheeseburgers. The mind that was once so brilliant that it could determine the amount of RAM that would be needed by...
Gods, Memes and Truth

Bill Walker 2005-05-02 16:00
The gods receive daily guidance from many people. I have acquaintances who assure me that Yahweh wants them to kill all the Arabs and populate Philistia exclusively with Khazars. Other friends tell me that Allah instead would prefer that all the Khazars leave Canaan and return to New York , which God instructed them to confiscate from the Amerinds. Local Southern Baptists regale me with tales of...
Why There's No Cure for the Common Cold

Bill Walker 2005-04-20 16:00
I shovel telomeres for a living. My friends in the computer industry are always asking me: 'Why can't you biotech guys cure cancer? Or aging? Or the common cold? What do you do with all those billions of government research dollars?'
Buddy, You NEED Asteroid Insurance

Would YOUR family be financially or molecularly secure today if an Apollo-Amor asteroid destroyed all life on the North American continent? No! And it's all because you haven't purchased Asteroid Insurance from the friendly folks at Solarpolitan Life (our motto: 'Don't get a piece of the Rock!'). Don't be the next Tunguska ! Call Today!
Outsourcing Is Good for What Ails You

We modern humans are not genetically smarter or stronger (yet) than our flint-chipping, grub-digging ancestors. What gives us our immeasurably greater potential is that we interact within a global market economy, where six billion people produce goods and services for each other. In the process, we both ship the products of our labor around and move our families to places where we can be more...
Looking for an Honest Socialist

Bill Walker 2005-03-13 17:00
There are no free-enterprise nations today. Every country has government-enforced fiat currency, large State-run economic sectors, and bureaucratic meddling in every area of human life. Many nations even have more than one government telling their citizens what to do, often the US and UN governments as well as their own local kleptocrats. So we don't really know what an undistorted market economy...
The Nonproliferation Jihad
0
Bill Walker 2005-03-03 17:00
The United States President, using some power found nowhere in the Constitution, has declared and launched an unprovoked war in the cause of 'nonproliferation of weapons of mass destruction.' As Kafka's badger put defending his burrow ahead of defending his life, the US Executive Branch has put the value of nonproliferation above the value of peace. Is nonproliferation, in itself, worth starting...
They Didn't Attack Switzerland

Bill Walker 2005-03-02 17:00
Switzerland has not been in a war of any kind since 1815. It has not been in an official foreign war since 1515. This would be astounding, even miraculous, for any nation. But Switzerland borders Germany . And France . And Italy . And Austria . And Liechtenstein . Now the Prince of Liechtenstein has rarely lashed out in Blitzkrieg in a desperate bid to reign uber alles, but ALL of Switzerland 's...
