10 Reasons You Need to Thank America for the Exceptional Life You Live (article)

Anti-Americanism from abroad would not be such a problem if Americans were united in standing up for their own country. But in this country itself, there are those who blame America for most of the evils in the world. On the political left, many fault the United States for a history of slavery, and for continuing inequality and racism. Even on the right, traditionally the home of patriotism, we hear influential figures say that America has become so decadent that we are “slouching towards Gomorrah.”

But the critics are wrong about America, because they are missing the big picture. In their indignation over the sins of America, they ignore what is unique and good about American civilization.

Citizens’ Rights Shredded – On a Whim, Government Elites in Australia Vote in a New Prime Minister (article)

It is 10pm, September 14, 2015 and I am visiting family in Sydney, Australia. Something just happened 15 minutes ago that would, with good reason, shock any American.

Australia's prime minister, Tony Abbot, was challenged by someone in his own liberal party, Malcolm Turnbull, to become the new prime minister today. Within 8 hours of Turnbull announcing his challenge, and a vote of 100 government people, the entire country of Australia just got saddled with a new prime minister they didn't elect.

If I Was Australian I’d Be Pissed – Why Australia is So Expensive and a Warning to U.S. to Avoid This (article)

Here in Australia, everything is outrageously expensive!! Way more than even Europe. Especially housing. Yesterday, the Brit and I had lunch at a sweet, cozy spot with a burning fire in a fireplace in Manly Beach overlooking the ocean. Our server was an American and I immediately started chatting him up about why he was in Australia and his experiences here.

Why Stocks Are Falling All Over the World and How to Protect Yourself (Short Article)

Has your stock portfolio just had a scary roller coaster dip? Feel like you might have a heart attack with last week's perpetual drops in the stock market?

Today, the S&P 500 was halted for the first time in history. The DOW saw the biggest intraday drop EVER. Stocks are falling all over the world. It's frightening stuff if you have a significant portion of your savings and investments in the stock market. Who is everyone blaming for this? China, of course. Especially mainstream media.

But China is not to blame. The Federal Reserve is to blame.

Kudos to Gay Baker Who Understands Freedom and Schools Fellow Gays on the Truth About Their Bad Behavior (video)

My respect and applause goes out to Jesse Bartholomew, a baker, who happens to be gay, had the courage to stand up and tell fellow gays the truth about their appalling behavior in this 2 minute video.

Jesse expresses his frustration with fellow gays about the fact that they are punishing Christian bakers who have declined to bake their wedding cakes.

He has a really wonderful point. WHY would you even want someone who has a different view than you working on such a personal part of your wedding? There are so many bakers to go to, why focus on the one that has religious views that conflict with yours?

Because this isn't about cake. This isn't about hurt feelings. This is about ego. And punishing.

The “Freest” Country in the World is now the Biggest Loser in Freedom and Wealth

I am sitting in one of the freest nations in the world right now. I'm sipping my coffee in my office overlooking a beautiful swimming pool in a landscaped garden of flowers and palm trees. High rise buildings, subway stations, and corporate developments are going up everywhere around me because of the abundance of capital in the country. Porsches, Bentleys, Mercedes, and any other car brand that could possibly make you salivate zooms by on the road below. The buzz of activity is everywhere and loads of people are hurrying to lunch before heading back to work. The unemployment rate is 1.9%. Taxes are some of the lowest in the world. Anywhere from 0-20%

The Biggest Money Secrets in the History of the World (Video)

Learning this will change your life because it will change the choices you make. We are entering the greatest financial crisis the world has ever known. And the greatest wealth transfer that the world has ever seen will take place with it.

Make sure you're on the right side of that wealth transfer.

Watch it. And then watch it again. I have probably watched it over 20 times now and I'm still watching it.

What an awesome way to show how the Federal Reserve creates "money" out of thin air. And what that does to your money and your standard of living.

Singapore’s ‘George Washington’ Passes Away and What America Can Re-Learn from Him (article)

Rest in peace Mr. Lee Kuan Yew.

Modern day Singapore would not exist without this extraordinary man. Just like America's founding fathers, he was willing to do some of the hard things that make a nation prosperous. Free markets, capitalism, anti-welfare, and no minimum wage helped Singapore prosper. Despite the lack of individual liberty for Singaporeans, the man understood free markets and capitalism and his economic policies were the reason he was able to turn Singapore from a third world country into a first world country in a matter of a few decades. He elevated the lifestyles of all Singaporeans significantly.
