Bürgergeld: Im Monat 7471 Euro netto für eine Familie
Von Richard Schmitt Fr, 25. April 2025
Das sind Beträge, von denen arbeitende Menschen nur träumen können: 7471 Euro netto erhält etwa eine Familie in Tübingen vom Jobcenter als Bürgergeld – auch deshalb, weil sie eine „teure Wohnung“ hätte. Das deckte jetzt Tübingens Bürgermeister Boris Palmer selbst auf.

The Economic Fallacies Underpinning Hitler’s Disastrous Views

We Must Teach Children to Love Freedom More Than Government
By J.B. Shurk
There is a sentence that has long bothered me. It is treated as a piece of universal wisdom that humans gain with experience, and surely every member of a modern, industrial society has heard it in some form. Whether spoken by a close friend or complete stranger, its utterance usually comes with a sly grin that invites the listener to reconsider a fundamental belief. Here it is: That’s not how the real world works.

The Free Market and Catholic Social Teaching
By Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr. April 28, 2025
The death of Pope Francis highlights a concern of many Catholics, including myself. Can we believe in the free market consistently with our faith? If we accept the Peronist views of the late pontiff, we obviously cannot do so. But fortunately, there is a better option available to us.

Zum Stand des Friedens-Basars
Donald Trump drängt auf schnellen Frieden in der Ukraine – auch auf Kosten geopolitischer Prinzipien. Während Moskau Gesprächsbereitschaft signalisiert, wachsen die Risiken für Kiew.
„Ich glaube nicht, dass sie jemals der NATO beitreten können. Ich glaube, das war von Anfang an der Grund für den Krieg, als sie begannen, über einen NATO-Beitritt zu sprechen. Wenn dieses Thema nicht aufgekommen wäre, wäre die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass der Krieg nicht begonnen hätte, deutlich größer gewesen.“

Carney’s Globalist Agenda will Destory Canada

Canada’s total trade is $1.6333 trillion, or just 5.1%. He is lying to the public and the world. You are right. This is a dangerous man. SL

Marxism’s Fragile Foundation: The Labor Theory of Value
