“[They’re] popular because it’s money that’s independent of politicians and bankers,” said Mati Greenspan, portfolio manager and Quantum Economics founder. “People want the separation of government and money. They clearly don’t get that.”

“Were diem, or even a Chinese CBDC, to be accepted by many other countries, the U.S. dollar would lose its dominance,” continued Bordo.

Critics of Biden as being a ‘progressive’ are mistaken. Understanding what ‘progressive’ means isn’t so easy.

The difference between “progressive” and “liberal” gets to the core of what politics in the real world is actually about, and of whether the nation is being controlled by the public (a democracy), or instead is controlled by the tiny percentage of the population who are enormously wealthy (an aristocracy — a capitalistic dictatorship, or also called “fascism” — so that the public are actually the nation’s subjects, instead of the nation’s citizens). Whereas progressivism is 100% supportive of democracy, liberalism is supportive of control by an elite, but one that supposedly represents the interests of the public. There is a big difference between progressivism and liberalism. Most simply phrased: Aristocrats always control the public by employing the popular mythology so as to motivate the majority to accept their own subordination to the aristocracy; and, whereas liberals support that, progressives don’t. This deception by the aristocracy minimizes the amount of physical coercion that will be needed in order for them to control the public. Progressives reject any mythology, and oppose any aristocracy. Liberals simply do not. Conservatives are the aristocracy. The noblesse oblige conservatives are the liberal aristocrats who say that they serve the public interest, but the other aristocrats say that they have no such obligation, and that their being an aristocrat proves their worthiness. And that is the way things function, in the real world. The ‘news’-media are important in deceiving the public so as to enable the aristocracy to control, and this is the reason why aristocrats buy ‘news’-media even regardless of whether those ‘news’-media are directly profitable: owning the ‘news’-media is providing a major service to the entire aristocracy, and therefore becomes repaid to such an owner in many other ways — all aristocrats want to please that member. It’s gratitude to a fellow-aristocrat, and that check can be cashed in many different ways.

DOJ Statement: Justice Department and FTC Announce Action to Stop Deceptive Marketing of Purported COVID-19 Treatments

I don’t understand why Congress even had to make it law, considering the following (I’m not saying that either help or not): 🤦🏼‍♀️

In 1994, the Dietary Supplements Health and Education Act was passed which established the guidelines for dietary supplement labeling claims for the FDA. This act requires labeling claims to be “truthful, not misleading and substantiated.” Likewise, the FTC has its own legislation under the Enforcement Policy Statement on Food Advertising which applies to supplements as well as food. This act defers to the FDA’s ruling on what is considered to be truthful, not misleading and substantiated and defines a deceptive ad as “one that contains a misrepresentation or omission that is likely to mislead consumers acting reasonable under the circumstances to their detriment.”

Generally, a claim that is made on a dietary supplement must be backed by scientific evidence to be considered for inclusion on a label by the FDA. For FTC requirements, these same requirements must be met, however any claims that can be inferred from the advertising or anything that is implied by claims made must also be truthful and substantiated. It is important to be meticulous in label creation to ensure compliance with these laws. Unless you are well versed in FDA and FTC regulations, it is extremely important to consult with an label consultant to ensure that no label claims may be subject to disciplinary action by these federal agencies.

Social Media Microtargeting and the Evolving Ministry of Truth

Lost in the conversation was the ability of regular people to use their own, individual critical thinking skills to sift through the content they may come across. For Dawson, Burns, and others in the growing cybersecurity industry, the “U.S. cognitive space” is a new theater of war that is not to be fought through education and open dialogue, but through hard and fast rules about what you can and cannot think about.
