Der schädliche Politikreflex
- Mai 2025 – von Rainer Fassnacht
Dass ein Reflex schädlich sein könnte, widerspricht der üblichen Erwartung. In der Physiologie spricht man von Reflex bei einer unwillkürlichen, über das Zentralnervensystem erfolgenden Reaktion des Organismus auf einen Reiz. Meist dienen Reflexe dem Überleben und sind automatische Reaktionen auf ………………..

Another Look at Root Causes of the War in Ukraine
18 May 2025 by Larry C. Johnson
Donald Trump continues to orient his policy toward Russia based on at least three faulty, wrong assumptions. First, he believes that Russia is suffering massive casualties and cannot sustain these losses. Second, he believes that Russia’s attack on Ukraine was based on some personal animus on the part of Vladimir Putin. Third, he believes that the war is causing great strains on the Russian economy and that Putin is looking for a way out.

MI5’s Fake Terror Plots
By Craig Murray CraigMurray.org.uk May 19, 2025
Back in the “War on Terror” days, the UK security services fabricated multiple fake terror plots. There was, for example, the 2009 Easter Bomb Plot in Manchester, taking entire front pages of newspapers. Gordon Brown as PM hyped it as a “very big terror plot”. It was a total fabrication, nobody was convicted ……………………

Why America Doesn’t Need ‚Allies‘
By David Stockman David Stockman’s Contra Corner May 17, 2025
The title is a bit crude and is deliberately mocking in tone. But it has to be because there is a deeply-entrenched, almost sacred presumption embedded in the nation’s foreign policy catechism that “allies”, “alliances” and “coalitions of the willing” are the be-all-and-end-all of enlightened, necessary and ………………..

MMT, Chartalism, and the Colonial Experience

MMT poses two propositions: 1) that money originates according to the theory of chartalism, that is, money is essentially created and regulated by the state; and, 2) that only “monetary sovereigns” can employ MMT policies successfully. MMT’s favorite example of a “monetary sovereign” is the modern ……………………

Congress Should Abolish the Fed for Failing to Achieve Its Mandates

As I discussed in this article, Congress has given the Fed a “triple mandate” to maintain 1) maximum employment; 2) a stable price level; and, 3) low interest rates. I also showed in that article that the Fed has failed to achieve these mandates again and again over the past 112 years.
