​​The Moral Defects of Public Finance https://www.theepochtimes.com/opinion/the-moral-defects-of-public-finance-5424003 Over the course of the 20th century, the practice of government redistribution of wealth from some citizens to others became the standard operating procedure in Washington.

Electric Cars Are a Scam The green “revolution” is an elite-driven, top-down technocratic project.
