Here’s our Friday roll-up of the most ridiculous stories from around the world that are threats to your liberty, risks to your prosperity… and on occasion, inspiring poetic justice.
Pentagon Hosts Event Promoting Socialism
The National Defense University (NDU) is a specialty academic institution founded by the US Department of Defense and funded by the US taxpayer.
NDU’s aim is to provide advanced education for senior leaders in the field of national security.
So naturally their big focus now is making the world safer… through Socialism.
Earlier this month, NDU hosted an event called, “Responding to China: The Case For Global Justice and Democratic Socialism.”
During the event, French economist Thomas Piketty who argued that global security requires “promoting a new emancipatory and egalitarian horizon on a global scale, a new form of democratic and participatory, ecological and post-colonial socialism.”
He argued that if the US sticks to its “dated hyper-capitalist model, Western countries may find it extremely difficult to meet the Chinese challenge.”
In other words, Piketty believes the US should prepare itself against China by becoming more like China.
Piketty’s concluding remarks asked, “what about sharing at least a fraction of global tax revenues paid by the world’s most powerful economic actors (multinationals, billionaires) between all countries according to population?”
Global taxation distributed by population…
How interesting that the US has the most wealth to tax, while China has the highest population to distribute it among.
It’s almost like this Pentagon-run college is promoting China’s agenda…

Well now, I wonder why China bought Joe B and most of the politicians in Washington?
