Why Do Americans Continue to Hew to Statism?
By Jacob G. Hornberger The Future of Freedom Foundation August 5, 2026
One of the things that has fascinated me ever since I founded The Future of Freedom Foundation is why so many Americans continue to hew to statism. After all, just look around us. The statist systems that 20th-century Americans brought into existence have brought us a life of constant chaos, crisis, war, conflict, hostility, monetary debauchery, massive taxation, death, suffering, tyranny, and oppression.

Niedrigwasser: Panikmache statt Präzision
Von Holger Douglas Mi, 5. August 2026
Der Rheinpegel liegt 17 Zentimeter über dem historischen Minimum von 1954. Der Fluss ist damit keineswegs „fast ausgetrocknet“. Doch die Panikmache verfängt, weil viele Menschen die Bedeutung von Begriffen wie Pegelstand, Wassertiefe und nutzbare Fahrrinne nicht kennen.

Marty, would you do an update on the Dow? As you’ve often said, when the Dow leads the NASDAQ, it is typically a sign that institutional and foreign capital is moving into the market. Socrates called the July low, and the Directional Change during the week of July 27 turned the market back up.

What Would Happen if Spain Had an Open Border with Morocco
08/03/2026 Ryan McMaken
Last week, more than 50,000 people illegally entered the Spanish exclave city of Ceuta, which normally has a population of only 80,000. Ceuta is located on the north African coast and shares a border with Morocco, an Arabic-speaking country with a population of 36 million. Many migrants pushed through the border barriers, with thousands more swimming short distances to bypass land-based barriers. Ceuta—like Spain’s other exclave city, Melilla—has long faced significant challenges over maintaining …………………….

In a recent column for Seeking Alpha, investor-turned-analyst Lance Roberts defends Milton Friedman’s view of inflation against what he calls inflation “doomers” and Austrians. By the former, he means those who approvingly lean on the Friedman quote that, “Inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon. . .” but fail to include the tail end of the quote: that “. . .it is and can be produced only by a ………………………….
