Yes, “None of the Above” is the show title I originally tried to talk Yaron into, so I guess that’s part of my motive for using the title today. But also I have, lined up, a number of stories relevant to a key line from the Duran Duran song’s lyrics: “Money, power, holy roads, freedom puts my faith in none of the above.” See Program Notes, below, for all the stories, etc., I plan to discuss with Yaron.

The show will be broadcast live via streaming video on Yaron’s YouTube Channel as well as on his show’s Facebook page here.

Enjoy this series of shows with Yaron? My appearances on Tucker Carlson? If you’d like to help support my work, you may support me directly at this link via PayPal, while I figure out what other platform/subscription service I might use. Thank you!

Discretion, in a system of check & balances, is messy. The only way to make sure it doesn’t happen again is to remove a check on the executive. Do we want that? https://t.co/ptziA2pfPR

Big Brother looms as government schools adopt technology-based education and Trump (again) calls for Congress to regulate social media. In the meantime, a federal appeals court issues a privacy ruling based on the antidote to Big Brother: property rights. Worshipers of Mother Earth prophesize doom as they march and speak out against human life. These stories and more on today’s show. See Program Notes, below, for the stories, etc., we plan to discuss.

The show will be broadcast live via streaming video on Yaron’s YouTube Channel as well as on his show’s Facebook page here.

PROGRAM NOTES:

Silicon Valley Came to Kansas Schools. That Started a Rebellion.

Starting competing companies won’t be nearly as easy after Congress “gets involved.” But somehow I don’t think you care, so long as you “get out [Your] WORD.”

“Inefficient”? By what standard? One thing that we know is “inefficient” by any *human* standard: government initiation of force. Like this ban.

So much for NYC 😥

I return with Yaron today, after several weeks’ hiatus, and also one year after we had a show in which he had THREE “I told you so”s for me! What will he (or, possibly, I) say “I told you so” about today? Tune in to find out. See Program Notes, below, for all the stories, etc., we plan to discuss.

The show will be broadcast live via streaming video on Yaron’s YouTube Channel as well as on his show’s Facebook page here.

UPDATE: ICYMI the show is available here:

Complaining that the Fed didn’t inject enough money into the economy. Sounds just like a #Capitalist to me! https://t.co/t2lss97Q28

Are sanctions the only thing preventing a brutal communist dictatorship from being a success? Perhaps the principle behind the placement of sanctions–that it is wrong to initiate force–is also applicable *within* a country. And, just maybe, there is a *practical* reason for it. https://t.co/pnn1ikCiAC

Notre-Dame Appears Structurally Sound After Fire, as Investigators Look for Cause

Melinda Gates on tech innovation, global health and her own privilege.

Gates, from the interview: “[S]ometimes the tech world thinks the solution is to give somebody an app. Well, that’s not going to change everything. I would also love to see more tech innovation on behalf of the world. ‘Let’s create the next thing that tracks my dog’— that’s fun and nice, but come on, there are people dying.”

1. Define “subsidy” please. In particular, do tax breaks qualify under your definition of “subsidy”?

2. If we were to stop giving money to all sectors of the energy industry (i.e., stop all true subsidies), which sector would survive? Only fossil fuels, because they’re reliable.
