Why Equality Is Bad

Many people oppose the free market because it leads to inequality of wealth and income. It is unfair

By Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr.

Many people oppose the free market because it leads to inequality of wealth and income. It is unfair, they say, that some people have vastly more money than others. Some defenders of the free market respond that these inequalities, while undesirable in themselves, make the poor better off than they would be otherwise, and so should be accepted. Another argument made by defenders of the free market is that restricting inequality would interfere liberty, so that, although inequality is bad, we have to put up with it…

The Next Big Leap for Bitcoin Miners: What it Takes to Reach $100 Hashprice

Before bitcoin’s fourth halving, the crypto asset soared to a peak of $73,794 on March 14, as recorded on Bitstamp. During the period from March 10 to April 10, bitcoin’s hashprice—representing the estimated daily earnings for 1 petahash per second (PH/s)—fluctuated between $105 and $125 per PH/s. Fast forward to this week, and as BTC hovers around $68.5K to $61.2K, the hashprice has bounced around between $47.88 and $53 per PH/s. Considering the impact of the fourth halving and increased mining difficulty, BTC’s spot price would need to climb into the triple-digit range for hashprices to again breach $100 per PH/s…

Reminder: I’ll be speaking at the JFK Lancer conference and also at the CAPA conference, which are being held on November 22-24 in Dallas.

55 Undeclared Chemical Elements — Including Heavy Metals — Found in COVID Vaccines

This article was originally published by The Defender — Children’s Health Defense’s News

by Brenda Baletti, Ph.D., The Defender

Editor’s note: The Defender is grateful for the expert input of Chris Exley, Ph.D., and Mike Adams on the research paper that is the subject of this Defender piece. These scientists have pointed out several major flaws in the analysis by Diblasi et al. 2024, including reporting of inappropriate units for vaccine contaminants (i.e., micrograms per liter rather than micrograms per dose) and discrepancies between the measured values of elements in the vaccine vials and the detection limits of the instruments used. We are also thankful for Dr. Martin Monteverde’s response to these criticisms. We believe this type of scientific discourse only serves to advance our cause regarding children’s health…
