EH - 115 : the Anti-Friedze

What if the assumptions of the founding fathers were completely different than the hand me down history would like us to believe? What if events through howdt history had never transpired and people were never governed by anyone that they didn't personally know and cede allegiance to? What if we were allowed to group in groups of our own choosing, where common ideology could be shared. Networks should allow such self-determination, but the loss of diversity among the common could lead to a Darwinesque battle of survival amongst the fittest. Or it could lead to a consensus, where mutual support societies grow to prosper in an unregulated moral environment.

Bill Bonner is an economist that i'd like to call the Anti-Friedze. He has a lackonical style that catches my whimsey and loves to tear into the pap distributed by NY Times 'correspondent' Th. Friedman of Lexus and Olive Garden fame. Reality is an individual experience on common ground. Napolean Hill's comments in Think and Grow Rich seem to be somewhat alive in the tales of Bill Bonner - world economic commentator and friend of the Motumbo Guru.
