Last week was a tough news week: murders and mayhem everywhere you look. Steve Green brings us another homicide case currently being investigated: Lord of the Rings actor Andy Sirkis has decided to remake George Orwell’s classic take on the horrors of socialism, Animal Farm, and turn it into a fun-loving, family-friendly romp on the horrors of CAPITALISM. And there goes another actor whose work we all used to admire greatly…

New Media giant Netflix has made an offer to buy Old Media giant Warner Brothers for seventy-something BILLION dollars. Many are bemoaning it as ‘the end of the movies as we know them.’ But ‘the end of the movies as we know them’ is not due to some corporate acquisition: the problem is much, much deeper than that.

Not the kids — the devices. Specifically, the social media programs. Australia has decided that the harm caused to young people by apps like TikTok, Instagram, SnapChat and all the rest far outweigh their benefits. Should kids be kept away from social media? And perhaps more to the point: CAN THEY be kept away from social media?

Despite the thicket of regulations and choking corporate tax rates that were once the envy of the world, the good old U.S. of A. somehow keeps managing to not only stave off international economic competition — we’re actually pulling away and widening our lead. How do we do it?

Waymo, whose fully automated, self-driving cars are a common sight in Los Angeles, has recently released it’s raw data on several years of practical, on-the-road traffic accidents. It turns out that even first-generation self-driving cars are at least TEN TIMES SAFER than those driven by humans (and the true number might be much more than that). From a safety point of view, the future clearly seems to favor automation. But is there more to driving a car than just safety?

Elon Musk predicts that in the not too distant future, huge advances in productivity brought on by AI and robotics could create a world where WORK is entirely option. There’s a very good chance he’s right. But if he is, does this road lead us to paradise, or perdition?

How does one describe an existential horror too overwhelming to be put into mere words? YOU FEEL IT IN YOUR BODY! So says former First Lady Michelle Obama. Is she referring to the horrors of war? The mindless terror of genocide? The chaotic and unexpected fury of some natural disaster? Oh no amigos. It’s MUCH WORSE than that. Oh, the humanity!

How many violent criminals are in a crowd? You might be shocked to discover that even in a major city of several million people that number may consist of just a few hundred. So why not lock THEM up?

Various shell companies are buying properties adjacent to some of America's most sensitive military installations -- including Whiteman, AFB, home of the USAF's B-2 Spirit stealth bombers -- and a shocking number of the REAL owners are... CHINA.

The American Indian, relying on his native self-sufficiency and love of his people, adjusts to the Ways of the White Man and finds a solution to the problem of feeding his people. Sounds like a tale of the Old West… but it’s not. It’s a tale of the New West, and it’s AWESOME.
