Economic Realities Outside The Bubble
- Deepening into Austrian economics shifted Curtis from liberalism to seeing modern institutions as a cult-like bubble.
- That critique reframed mainstream macro policy (Fed control of rates) as non-market planning with systemic harms.

- States function like firms and monarchies can align regime interests with long-term national stewardship.
- Family-owned rule permits legacy thinking measured in centuries, unlike short-term elected rulers.
