The anti-meat movement has influenced government policy well beyond anything close to the truth about meat. From the discredited food pyramid to government funding of “lab-grown meat,” government aids the activists who are making our lives worse.Original article: https://mises.org/mises-wire/next-food-pyramid-lab-grown-meat-and-new-moral-orthodoxy

Canada has a massive problem: our national productivity is near the bottom of the G7. Decades of government policies, from free trade to tax cuts, haven't worked.Why? Because policymakers are focused on greed (incentives) and not enough on fear (competition and risk).We dive into the core failure of Canadian economic policy, exposing how corporate welfare and easy access to foreign workers kill innovation. Plus, hear the shocking truth about why Canadian retailers won't stock products from homegrown businesses until they succeed in the U.S. first.We discuss Charles Lamman's critique and Don Drummond's "confessions" to find out how to fix Canada's risk-aversion crisis and finally push our economy forward.Chapters:00:00:00 | Defining Productivity: Real GDP per Hour Worked00:01:42 | Canada's Long Decline: The Charles Lamman Critique00:03:15 | Don Drummond's Confessions: The Failure of Decades of Policies00:04:14 | Red Tape: The Omission That Stops Building00:04:51 | The Core Flaw: Too Much Greed, Not Enough Fear00:06:46 | Corporate Welfare and the Temporary Foreign Worker Trap00:08:01 | Canada's National Risk Aversion: Why Retailers Look SouthResearch:Labour productivity and related measures, by business sector industry, seasonally adjusted, fourth quarter 2025Productivity is an urgent problem for Canada.

Tara exposes how South Carolina's state legislature plans to increase spending by 8.75% this year, far outpacing the state's 1.5% population growth. From taxpayer-funded lesbian podcasts and lewd art exhibits to corporate welfare and climate change grants, Tara breaks down how government dollars are being spent on projects the public didn't ask for. Joined by former Representative Adam Morgan, Tara digs into how a few conservative Freedom Caucus members are fighting to hold the legislature accountable while Democrat-appointed subcommittee chairs control the budget for arts, education, and healthcare—despite a Republican supermajority. Summary In this episode, Tara and Adam Morgan take listeners through the unusual and controversial spending practices in South Carolina: Budget Increase vs. Population Growth: The legislature plans an 8.75% spending increase despite just 1.5% population growth—raising questions about fiscal responsibility. Arts Commission Funding: Taxpayer money is funding queer-themed podcasts, lewd art exhibits, drag shows, and other controversial programs with little public support. Corporate Welfare & Climate Grants: Millions are allocated to corporate incentives, climate change research, and tuition mitigation programs that drive up costs instead of reducing them. Committee Control: Key budget subcommittees for arts, commerce, higher education, and healthcare are chaired by Democrats, despite a Republican supermajority, creating unexpected spending priorities. Freedom Caucus Oversight: Only a small number of conservative lawmakers actively research, amend, and oppose questionable budget allocations, highlighting the lack of accountability in Columbia. Public Engagement: Tara emphasizes the importance of constituents calling their representatives to understand how tax dollars are being spent and to demand transparency. Adam Morgan provides expert insight on how entrenched liberal leadership on budget committees enables these spending decisions and why conservative oversight is critical to stop misuse of taxpayer funds.

Ryan McMaken traces the rise and squeeze of America's small business economy, showing how tariffs, industrial policy, the Fed, and “too big to fail” bailouts systematically tilt the field toward big corporations and away from independent entrepreneurs and the middle class.Recorded in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, on February 21, 2026. Special thanks to Michael and Beverley Starkey and Gil Robinson for sponsoring this event.

My guest this week is Kris Sims, Alberta Director of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation. This week, we discuss the out-of-control cost to taxpayers of Canada's current Governor-General, Mary Simon, and even the ongoing expenses of former Governors-General. The Office of the GG—including upkeep on Rideau Hall, expensive trips abroad, clothing allowances and other perks—is over $30 million annually! Kris and I also discuss the need to get federal bureaucrats on a “sunshine” list so that Canadians have a better idea where their tax dollars are going.

Kansas taxpayers are on the hook for $7 BILLION to subsidize the Kansas City Chiefs stadium through a massive STAR bonds scheme. In this hard-hitting special edition of The Right Side, Doug Billings exposes the backroom deal cut by RINO Senate President Ty Masterson, RINO Speaker Dan Hawkins, Secretary of State Scott Schwab, and Governor Laura Kelly — all while cutting Kansans out of the process.Senator Mike Thompson's explosive breakdown reveals:$189 million per year in bond payments for 30 yearsEveryday sales taxes on groceries, burritos, and lawnmowers in Shawnee, Lenexa, Olathe, and Edwardsville funding billionaire ownersChiefs pay only $7 million rent while taxpayers own the stadium and cover all maintenance foreverUnbacked bonds at sky-high interest, frozen sales tax “base year,” $1.3 billion in future HPIP tax creditsExtra 2% CID sales tax spikes pushing some areas over 11%NFL ticket sales completely exempt from contributing to repaymentSix separate 5-year deals — the Chiefs can renegotiate even better terms every five yearsMissouri taxpayers got abandoned after decades of subsidies… Kansas is nextThis isn't conservatism.

Trump Loses It Over Guns: NRA, Epstein Files, and Oompa Loompas Gone Wild!In this raucous episode of Libservative, Dan and Corey dive into a brunch-time discussion live-streamed on a Saturday morning. Topics range from the hot-off-the-press Epstein files and their endless redactions, to a heated debate on the Second Amendment and the shooting of a protester by ICE agents. They even get into some serious laughs with Tim Dillon's epic analogy involving Oompa Loompas and global corporatism.

Former State Senator John Lamping joins Marc and Kim to preview Missouri's 2026 legislative session, focusing on Governor Kehoe's push to eliminate the state income tax. Lamping says the odds look strong but warns the real resistance will come from business lobbies, not Democrats. He explains the likely shift toward taxing services and goods currently exempt, and how similar reforms in other states boosted long-term growth. The discussion expands to praise the Taylor family for privately funding St. Louis City SC's billion-dollar stadium—contrasting it with the taxpayer-funded Chiefs deal in Kansas, which Lamping calls corporate welfare at its worst. He closes by stressing that if Kehoe pulls this off, it would be one of Missouri's boldest conservative reforms ever. #MissouriPolitics #JohnLamping #IncomeTax #CorporateWelfare #MarkCoxMorningShow

As Congress scrambles to extend emergency subsidies to keep Obamacare afloat, it can be tempting to view the bill that made healthcare less affordable as a total failure. But that wasn't the true purpose of the ACA. It was always meant to prop up the faltering crony healthcare system.Read the article here: https://mises.org/mises-wire/obamacare-was-not-failureBe sure to follow the Guns and Butter podcast at https://Mises.org/GB

In this turkey-fueled episode of The Chad & Cheese Podcast, the boys stuff themselves like it's Thanksgiving every day (because, let's be honest, their content diet is already 90% gravy) with a little help from their friends - J.T. O'Donnell, Allyn Baily, Mo' Clough, Julie Sowash and Michelle Meehan. They kick things off by swapping heartwarming family traditions—like which uncle still thinks “pass the stuffing” is code for “pass the political hot takes”—before pivoting to the real national religion: soccer finally mattering in America now that Lionel Messi has descended from Mount Olympus to sprinkle GOAT dust on MLS fields. From there, it's straight into the AI Thunderdome, where the gang swing the banter hammer at every shiny new model like they're judging a middle-school science fair on bath salts. They roast ZipRecruiter's podcast so hard you'll smell burnt Phil from here, expose the shameless corporate-welfare grift masquerading as “HR innovation,” and deliver a fantasy-football update that's equal parts trash talk and emotional damage. They also review Indeed's latest product (spoiler: it's a feature, not a miracle), reenact actual spy-vs-spy drama happening right now in HR tech like it's a Jason Bourne movie but with worse expense reports, and wrap the whole glorious mess with a Thanksgiving dad joke so corny it should come with its own butter sculpture. Grab a plate, loosen the belt, and hit play—you'll laugh, you'll cry (from laughter), and you'll never look at cranberry sauce the same way again.

Jordan Sather and Nate Prince deliver a packed episode of MAHA News, kicking off with the CDC's explosive website update acknowledging that claims of “no link” between vaccines and autism are not evidence-based, triggering absolute meltdown across legacy media, pharma loyalists, and blue-state health bureaucracies. The hosts track the political fallout, RFK Jr.'s direct role in ordering the change, and the wave of scientists now admitting long-ignored biologic mechanisms worth investigating. From Bhattacharya and Makary's blunt critiques of captured institutions to Robert Malone exposing the financial corruption inside the AAP and ACIP, the guys highlight a medical landscape finally cracking open. Jordan and Nate also dive into SSRIs, microbiome destruction, gut health, antibiotic overuse, and the soaring chronic-illness rates no one in the old regime wants to talk about. The episode closes with a fiery breakdown of SNAP as corporate welfare, revealing how billions in taxpayer dollars funnel straight into Coca-Cola, Frito-Lay, Walmart, and Big Food, while politicians pretend it's about “feeding the poor.” A fast, funny, and fiercely honest episode charting the scientific and political shifts reshaping U.S. health policy.

Episode 4933: MAGA Under Siege; Decaying Society For Corporate Welfare

PLUS - Pastor Greg and I discuss "Islamification" and horrible reporting by The Tribune

It goes by many names: cronyism, corporatism, political favoritism, corporate welfare, and more. No matter what you call it, it's the same idea — government picking winners and losers in our economy. Some companies get special treatment through subsidies, tax breaks, loopholes, government contracts, low-interest loans, or in-kind support.In short, whenever the government promises a company a shortcut or special favor, that's corporate welfare in action. It undermines competition, punishes smaller competitors, and costs taxpayers. It happens at every governmental level — local, state, and federal — and it's always the public who pays the price.In today's episode of This Week's Economy, we'll unpack the real costs of corporate welfare — who truly benefits, and who gets left behind.

This episode pulls back the curtain on one of the biggest lies in modern economics, that welfare helps the poor. In reality, every dollar that enters a government program eventually ends up in corporate hands. The rich use debt to buy assets and generate tax-free income. The poor use debt to survive and never escape it. From SNAP to Medicaid, the system recycles money upward through low wages, processed food, and pharmaceutical profits. We'll break down how this loop works: taxpayers fund assistance programs, benefits go to workers whose employers rely on those subsidies, and the corporations collecting those dollars … Continue reading →

Alex Pierson sits down with Blacklock's Reporter managing editor Tom Korski for a sharp look behind the headlines — from the $15-billion Stellantis subsidy deal now facing public scrutiny, to CBC Gem's questionable “millions of subscribers,” and Ottawa's ever-slipping housing targets. Korski dissects what's really hidden in the fine print of Canada's auto bailouts, calls out the lack of accountability at the public broadcaster, and warns how failed housing policy is eroding the Canadian dream of home ownership.

The Trump administration is reviving previous administrations' plans to build a missile defense system in space. They are calling it the "Golden Dome," similar to Israel's Iron Dome. The Congressional Budget Office estimates it will cost trillions of dollars at a time when the United States has a record-high national debt and is failing to meet domestic needs. Clearing the FOG speaks with Bruce Gagnon, the coordinator of the Global Network Against Weapons and Nuclear Power in Space, about the history of the US project to control space and mine its resources in defiance of United Nations treaties and who will benefit. He also describes resistance efforts around the world and what people in the United States can do to fight it. For more information, visit PopularResistance.org.

They then switch gears to expose the unbelievable waste and corruption within the now-defunct Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (FMCS). The hosts detail the misappropriation of taxpayer funds, lavish offices, personal expenditures on government credit cards, and non-existent oversight within the agency.

Steve Gruber discusses news and headlines 

Move over, first class passengers on the Titanic! America has a new class of doomed elites! Extreme income inequality threatens our democracy and the security of the world, but unions are fighting back, showing our path forward for the safety of everyone.    C.E.O.s and billionaires celebrate record-breaking profits, but for everyday workers, wages have remained stagnant, not keeping pace with the rising cost of living. The result? The American Dream is increasingly resembling a Neoliberal Ponzi Scheme, where the promise of prosperity seems to be reserved for nepo-babies.   Beyond the obvious moral implications, income inequality has profound consequences for our society. It undermines trust in institutions, worsens political instability, and contributes to declining life expectancy—a stark reality in America today. When the rich get richer and the rest of us get left behind, it doesn't just create social rifts; it destabilizes the United States, and therefore the world.    How do we overcome this crisis? The renaissance of unions will strengthen our economy for all and protect our democracy. This week's guest Michael Podhorzer has been on the frontlines of this fight for decades, as the former longtime political director of the AFL-CIO – the largest federation of unions in the United States. Podhorzer is a senior fellow at the Center for American Progress, the chair of the Analyst Institute, the Research Collaborative and the Defend Democracy Project, and writes the Substack Weekend Reading.    A 2021 TIME article described Podhorzer as the architect of a broad movement that helped protect the integrity of our vote in the 2020 election. This week's bonus show, available to subscribers at the Truth-teller level ($5/month) and higher, includes Podhorzer's insights on how to protect the 2024 election, in an excerpt available to all. Exclusive to our Patreon supporters, this week's bonus show also includes a deep-dive examination of the recent arrest of Telegram's C.E.O.
