Recognize the Danger

Enjoy the lower gas prices but be prepared for an economic disaster like the world has never seen. You have not heard an attempt at honesty out of government in many decades. The depression has started, picking up where it left of in 2009. This will be far worse than what is called the Great Recession. The Federal Reserve has destroyed the economy.

Watch for pockets of discomfort. It is an error to think that programs for the poor and things like safety nets are totally for the benefit of those who qualify. Social programs exist so that Americans will always be comfortable? How considerate, you declare! People who are comfortable are likely to believe anything they are told. Make people feel important. Make them feel special. Tell them lies that make them feel special and they will believe every one of them and ask to hear more.

Notice that without fail every political speech begins by telling the audience how important they are and acknowledging all of their wonderful attributes.

There is no telling what you will be told as this economic calamity gets underway. If you believe any of it, it will be to your disadvantage. Social unrest will start as discomfort increases. Surely some of it will be violent. Regardless, you will hear many lies in the days to come,

“When Times Got Really Weird” is a timely Curbside Jimmy tune. Now is not a good time to sell your soul to the devil. The Devil is getting all the souls he can work with absolutely free. When trading freedom for comfort, the devil is usually out their making offers. There is no need for him to do it that way this time.

About Fantasy Free Economics

James Quillian independent scholar,free market economist,and teacher of natural law. Who is James Quillian? Certainly I am nobody special, Just a tireless academic and deep thinker. Besides that, I have broken the code with respect to economics and political science. Credentials? Nothing you would be impressed with. I am not a household name. It is hard to become famous writing that virtually no one in the country is genuinely not in touch with reality. But, if I did not do that, there would be no point in my broking the broken the code. If you read the blog, it is easy to see that there are just a few charts, no math and no quantitative analysis. That is not by accident. Given what I know, those items are completely useless. I do turn out to be highly adept at applying natural law. Natural law has predominance over any principles the social science comes up. By virtue of understanding natural law, I can debunk, in just a few sentences , any theory that calls for intervention by a government. My taking the time to understand the ins and outs of Keynes General Theory is about like expecting a chemistry student to completely grasp all that the alchemists of the middle ages thought they understood in efforts to turn base metals into goal. Keynesian theory clearly calls for complete objectivity. Government can only make political decisions. Keynesian techniques call for economic decisions. So, why go any further with that? Fantasy Free Economics is in a sense a lot like technical analysis. Technical analysis began with the premise that it was impossible to gain enough information studying fundamentals to gain a trading advantage. Study the behavior of investors instead. Unlike technical analysis, I don't use technical charts. What I understand are the incentives of different people and entities active in the economics arena. For example, there is no such thing as an incentive to serve with life in the aggregate. In the aggregate, only self interest applies. It is routinely assumed otherwise. That is highly unappealing. But, I am sorry. That is the way it is. I can accept that because I am genuinely in touch with reality. Step one in using Fantasy Free Economics is for me to understand just how little I really know. A highly credentialed economist may know 100 times what I do based on the standard dogma. Compare the knowledge each of us has compared to all there is to know and we both look like we know nothing at all. There is always more than we don't know than what we do know. I am humble enough to present myself on that basis. Why? That is the way it is. I am not bad at math. I have taught math. What I understand is when to use it and when to rely on something else. Math is useless in natural law so I don't use it. While others look at numbers, I am busy understanding the forces in nature that makes their numbers what they are. That gives me a clear advantage.
