There is no bigger menace for a human being than when government goes to work.

There is no bigger menace for a human being than when government goes to work.

Oversight and accountability are unknown words  for goverment.

Government is extreme.

The U.S. government is really spying on American  citizens.

Bad guys and terrorism were always the excuses of totalitarians to harm, harass or invade the liberties of individuals.

Freedom literacy


Freedom literacy is a new skill we need to live in this new world of individual  responsibility and Government's collection of  electronic data

 Very few countries have taken the initiative  to improve freedom literacy and capability.

If you don’t do that, this is not something  that grows with you or that people acquire by  their daily lives.

Recording everything you do, forces you to be aware of where your go and what  you do.

The more we focus on our freedom and are conscious  of it, the more likely we will not take it  for granted.

How to limit inefficient government bureaucracy, tax rates and tax regulations?



How to limit inefficient government bureaucracy, tax rates and tax regulations?



Place a civil servant a congressman and a senator in a dreary office rented by them and tell them to run a business for a year.

What is the main difference between Europe and America?

What is the main difference between Europe and America?

The location of the financial assets.

Banks dominate finance in Europe, especially in the struggling south.

Some 85% of financial assets  in Italy, 87% in Spain and 96% in Greece are held by banks and other credit institutions, compared with less than 30% in the U.S. So when the banks don't lend, European economies can't grow.

Even if U.S. banks are struggling, U.S. companies can raise funds from the markets.

When fiscal and monetary policies do not work.

When fiscal and monetary policies do not work.


No matter how many quantitative easing programs  you can use.

In 2006, 63.4% of the American working-age population was employed. That percentage declined to a
low of 58.2% in July 2011 and now stands at 58.6%.

Freedom and security never matched

Freedom and security never matched

According to the US Government:

Every time  Americans makes a call, the US Government  gets a record of the location, the number called, the  time of the call and the length of the conversation.

Every time  Americans send and email or visit a website the US Government gets a record of it.

Every time  Americans pay with a credit card the US Government  gets a record of it.

Every time  Americans create information the US Government "maps" individuals connected  with that information.

The US Government surveillance of people is breathtaking.

 Is the US Government out of control?
