How Can We Restore Freedom and Sound Money in the US and the UK? Some Ideas
The purpose of this essay is not to convince the reader of the necessity for change. It is to present some commonsense policy changes to attempt to mitigate the economic harm that has been done to Western economies, especially to the United States and the United Kingdom, since the end of World War II. Please watch Godfrey Bloom and Alasdair Macleod’s recent interview with Sonia Poulton.
The video describes the current financial and reputational weaknesses of the West. For a more in-depth analysis of the financial threat to the West, please read any of Alasdair Macleod’s weekly essays from the past few months.
In the Poulton interview, Macleod ably describes the financial implications of the West’s deindustrialization policies and currency debasement. Bloom describes the reputational damage stemming from the West’s “sanctions” against Russia plus the consequences of deindustrialization due to the foolish pursuit of a Green New Deal.

Tax Freedom Day Underestimates How Long You Work For The Government
Authored by Jonathan Newman via The Mises Institute,
Tax Freedom Day, calculated by the Tax Foundation, “represents how long Americans as a whole have to work in order to pay the nation’s tax burden.”
It appears that they stopped publishing this in 2019, but others have picked up where they left off.
The idea is that the income earned by taxpayers over a certain proportion of the year goes to Uncle Sam.
In 2025, that date was April 16th.
But the burden of government...

Jobs Shock: US Lost 92K Payrolls In February, Far Below Lowest Estimate, As Unemployment Rate Rises
Jobs Shock: US Lost 92K Payrolls In February, Far Below Lowest Estimate, As Unemployment Rate Rises
In our nonfarm payrolls preview, we quoted JPMorgan's Market Intel desk which said that "for this print, the stronger the better", which by implication means that a poor number would be bad. By that logic, the actual number couldn't be any worse, because moments ago the BLS reported that in February, the US lost 92,000 jobs, a huge drop from the downward revised (of course) 126K in January, and the second worst print since 2020...
