Tired of the toxicity of social media? Why not join Ricochet for just $5/month? Think of it as an online bar. Come in, have a drink, hang out, say whatever you want. But don’t badger, bully, or berate the other drinkers. That's our only rule.
Once upon a time Americans could reliably count on reporters to follow the money to stay up on what the world's powerful players were up to. If you've ever despaired that those days are gone forever, we want to provide a bit of hope by introducing Seamus Bruner. We cover his new book Controligarchs. To be sure, the story is quite disconcerting, but the young Mr. Bruner is optimistic that we can win the fight against our age's "altruistic" masters of the universe. His thoroughly researched, readable deep dive into our 30 mega-meddler billionaires is his latest effort to wake Americans up to the onslaught on our way of life.
Ricochet's resident scholar Steve Hayward is in for James this week. He, Peter and Rob discuss this week's pitiful showing from the presidents of our elite colleges in front of Congress; and they chat on David Weiss' revised indictment of Hunter Biden.
Hosted by Peter Robinson, Rob Long, and Steve Hayward, with guest Seamus Bruner

I guess this is progress, Peter is no longer "shocked" by things, just "staggered."

The reason you need a UBI is because the economy is deflationary, and the geniuses that control everything think the Federal Reserve has to create inflation all of the time. We should have quit doing this the second the Soviet Union fell.

60% of the country lives paycheck to paycheck. Name one important thing that isn't expensive. Then they whine about people not creating enough W-2 slaves.
@PeterRobinson
You need to get a guy from the Ludwig von Mises Institute on Uncommon Knowledge to explain why deflation isn't a big deal and how they are making the side effects from artificial intelligence much worse with inflation and everything else.
Really good show, today. Everybody should feature the part about campus anti-Semitism on social media.

I bought and downloaded the book. Looking forward to reading it.

There needs to be a new word for that. It's not possible to download a book.
