My 200th post

Started on 23 September and here we are, only 10 December, and up to my 200th. This remains just for me and just for fun but I now do get upwards of 24 hits a day but still have only one reliable reader – hi again, Joshi. And I can see that I have veered away from politics since I have had not just too much of it, but the sense of doom and save yourself while you can, is how I feel after the American election. I have, interestingly to me, rekindled my interest in the women’s movement of which I was a participant back in the 1960s and 70s. But like all forms of leftism, I have abandoned the modern versions which has transformed from “do not discriminate against women” to become “you must discriminate in favour of women”. Women are, of course, big supporters of this new form of feminism since they think they are the net beneficiaries but this is so only in some ways. If your aim is as a women is to get married, settle down and not only have children but raise them yourself but within the marriage, it is now a very hostile world and you will not be supported by the official women’s movement. And with the dual income family having driven house prices so far upwards, almost no one can do it any longer unless they are very wealthy. Meanwhile, politics is moving farther to the left with the clueless media along with the majority of the population unable to recognise for what they are President Alinsky in the United States or Prime Minister Rosa Luxembourg here in Australia. The one bright spot for me is, of course, John Papola’s Macro Follies which I will post again just for fun. It really is based on the text of my Say’s Law and the Keynesian Revolution which John read and bless his heart, even understood.

It’s just a shame no one knows where the ideas for this video came from. But as I used to say, you can do anything if you don’t want the credit. Unfortunately, this time I do want the credit but what can you do. It’s fun anyway and maybe Elgar will publish my essays. Provisional title: Macro Follies: Essays on Say’s Law and Keynes. Meanwhile I must finish my Defending the History of Economic Thought this week.

Just noticed: I hadn’t posted Macro Follies already. This is the first time. How funny is that!

Just just noticed: I actually had put the video up but it was so many posts ago, if even only four days ago, that I didn’t go back far enough to find it. How really funny is that!!
