The Fallacy of the “Public Sector”
As the Trump administration cuts thousands of federal jobs, it‘s good to remember that the public sector‘s “services” provide no actual net value to the “national product.”

In addition to threatening to impose double-digit duties on all products imported from Canada, Mexico, and China (whose tariffs took effect on Tuesday), each of the president’s executive orders eliminates duty-free exemptions for low-dollar-value imports, known as de minimis exemptions. Eliminating these exemptions would increase the price of goods from international bargain brands enjoyed by cash-strapped […] More than one issue boosted Donald Trump ahead of main rival Kamala Harris and back into the White House, but inflation was key among them. A federal spending spree diminished the purchasing power of the dollar and sent prices higher, inducing sticker shock among Americans that influenced their choices on Election Day. Now we’re seeing indications that inflation is back, and the new administration will have to live up to promises to bring the cost of living under […] Can a local government prevent a business owner from painting a mural on their own property? That question is now before a New Hampshire federal court following a dispute over one bakery’s painting of baked goods above its store in Conway, New Hampshire. Leavitt’s Country Bakery is an acclaimed bakery in small-town New Hampshire—even getting the No. 1 spot on a local news outlet’s list of the “best doughnuts in New Hampshire” in 2022. That year, owner Sean […] Thanks, Rick Rozoff. It was Poland last time. The post Scholz calls for state of emergency in Germany over Ukraine appeared first on LewRockwell. Tariffs, like oil prices, may have relevant implications on numerous trade factors, but they do not cause price inflation. Will the Fed blame tariffs like it blamed covid for price inflation? With Cris Sheridan Feb 4, 2025 – Trade War 2.0 is here, and the stakes are higher than ever. With fresh tariffs on China, Canada, and Mexico, the U.S. is flexing its economic muscle—but what’s the bigger picture? Scott Freeman, Director of Asset Allocation… For years I have emphasized that white governments emphasize the rights of alien immigrant-invaders over the rights of ethnic citizens. This has gone so far as to violate the right to free speech if immigrant-invaders or their self-assigned protectors find the speech “offensive.” The media are not permitted to mention race and immigration status when reporting crimes. White governments, especially in England, Germany, and Scandinavia have actually turned the crime of rape into a privilege for immigrant-invaders, and there are instances […] For a decade and a half, federal prosecutors in New Mexico say, Albuquerque police officers conspired with a local defense attorney, Thomas Clear, and his investigator, Ricardo Mendez, to make DWI cases disappear in exchange for bribes. According to prosecutors, this “DWI Enterprise” was so engrained that it encompassed “almost the entire” Albuquerque Police Department (APD) unit charged with apprehending drunk drivers. The scheme began, expanded, and continued operating right under the noses of top supervisors, including Police […]The Fallacy of the “Public Sector”
