Politicians and journalists would love to get rid of the lobbyists and super-rich interest groups, but people are the problem
Despite people denying being influenced by political commercials and TV with the obvious agenda, the opposite is true. People love establishment news offering only those parties tied to the super-rich groups. It same goes with social media. And what do the lobbyists and super-rich do? They completely destroy the political system (they are damaging the…

Why the US presidents should be pathologically worrisome and obsessive
Putting you into the position of the president of the United States of America brings you enormous moral obligations (even from the “normal morality” standpoint which I have little understanding of). Like all the politicians on the planet, you are restrained by the interest groups. You have 10,000 issues to solve, but they purposefully block…

Total parody of freedom of speech in academia
They say the freedom of speaking is most important. So academicians have a pretty difficult job to do because there is no freedom of speech. Promoting eugenics? The world of superhuman intelligence, zero criminals, no illnesses, wars or capitalism. You are dead to me! Not only races are not the same but they possess different…

USA global business talent tests? Rather no. China could be a competitor
We have IQ tests that are deeply ingrained in mainstream science. We also have creativity tests, but there is also EQ (emotional intelligence), which I wouldn’t dare to call intelligence (intelligence is a very general ability to solve problems). But why did the psychometricians not develop tests on whether someone can be a great businessman,…

Hip-hop music to the detriment of the African-American population
In the USA, African-Americans are discriminated against everywhere it is possible but sadly the African-Americans have got addicted to Hip-hop music. So instead of showing the system that they can resist its oppression by studying to be engineers, scientists or politicians, building their strong willpower and hard work ethic, they listen to the genre that…

These liars offer you the 2-dimensional political spectrum. Here’s the reality
This is my modest suggestion on how the multidimensional spectrum should look like. But, of course, politicians and lobbyists are adamant. More redistribution/Less redistributionLiberal/ConservativeAnti-consumerism/ConsumerismTens of percent of GDP investing in science/Little investment in scienceTrillions of dollars for building whole countries/Little aidComplex grasp of what surplus value is and how to change the constellation of the…

The USA is a parody of capitalism
You would expect that the ring-wing-aligned US has proper, not malformed capitalism. Not only that it doesn’t give equal opportunities but the majority of the market and important branches of the economy are in the hands of the super-rich that control the country politically. Such political and economic deformity cannot lead to correct market mechanisms…

Dear super-rich, give $2 trillion and 6 million children will see daylight without parents having to pay a dime
If the super-rich gave “only” 2 trillion, 6 million children would see daylight without parents having to pay for the care. The statistics are derived that an average cost of a child per year is $17,375. And parents paying the checks for 20 years. And not to mention that even lesser support would make even…

Cancer cure vs. obscene multinational corporations profits
In total, Fortune 500 companies represent two-thirds of the U.S. GDP with $18 trillion in revenues (up 13%), while profits, down 15%, fell for the second time in the past three years. The estimated global scale of profit shifting is close to 1 trillion USD and related tax revenue losses range between 200 and 300…

Why is Berlin devoid of skyscrapers? Politics as usual
The famous quote goes that Germany is “too big for Europe and too small for the world”. But 80 million people and their capital has only a few skyscrapers? My sensible readers are beginning to understand it. Politics = economy. Since Germany was totally defeated in WW2 (unlike during WW1), foreign capital started dominating Germany.…
