What Would Happen if Everyone Followed Socrates?

There Comes a Time We Must Stand Up

COMMENT: Mr. Armstrong, On one of your blogs yesterday you wrote the most chilling comment I’ve ever read on your site, to the effect that you don’t want to live in the world that we’re going into (provided we get there, of course). It’s most chilling for a host of obvious reasons, as well as […]

Unbeknownst to the vast majority, the entire accounting system of trade had been […]

Comment from Retired Police Chief

COMMENT: Mr. Armstrong, Many cops do not think beyond a violation of a law to see the bigger picture of what is really going on, they buy into whatever reason is given for a new program, or they like the government bodies they serve see a cash stream that they think they can use as […]
