Palace intrigues... not about ideology... do tend to be about who gets to be King... and not about whether or not there should be a King ?

The problem is... “capitalism”... money doing what money thinks is good for money... is ideologically agnostic. It does not care about political legitimacy... and is equally as sanguine about Communism (Armand Hammer) as it is about National Socialism (Prescott Bush).

Today, the left want to pretend that National Socialism is not socialism... that it isn’t the same thing as “a public-private partnershio”... that monopolies in bed with a shadow government to control the media... isn’t NAZI ?

Instead, they try to pretend that the 1960’s never happened, that Martin Luther King, and the change he enabled, has made no difference at all, as they re-brand American’s history of opposition to NAZIism as itself being NAZI...

The bait and switch attempt fails to mask the historical parallels... small numbers of racist NAZIs and huge numbers of Americans who are their opponents... just as small numbers of ANTIFA brownshirts and huge numbers of Million MAGA Marchers...

Racism is real, of course... but you’d have to be a MORON to believe that delusional white college kids rioting for Antifa and BLM... are a proof of sustained systemic racism dominating our culture.

Ideologically, the issue is that capital is $ and it has no rights while market functions have no ideology. Only people have a moral presence. The “market” issue for people is one of ownership... own yourself... or be owned.

The choice is not economic... it is moral... either freedom or slavery... and either free markets... or slavery under forms of market structures that are not free, but controlled... in others interest.

A Free Market... is one in which there is NO FRAUD, NO MONOPOLY... and NO BARRIERS TO PARTICIPATION...

How does that short description of freedom in its economic aspect... align with our reality today... even only in terms of the election ?

No fraud ?

No evidence of context being dominated by monopolies ?

No evidence of anyone being shut out of rightful participation ?

Is it a free election or not ?
