The openness of a society, its willingness to permit creative destruction and the rule of law, appear to be decisive for economic development – Kenneth Arrow, Nobel laureate in economics, 1972, when the Nobel meant something
Stock market gains shifted Wednesday from Operation Prison Camp to small caps. For the past two years, 90% of the gains have been digital because of the over-arching green-fascist plan to wrench man into an enhanced-human experience in 15 minute cities. The shift is significant because it is a sharp move to the positive. Small caps have massive under-utilized capacity and it is there, and only there that real growth can happen. Since Covid, multinationals, the wedded partners of Agenda 2030, have lost the confidence of the public. No one trusts Big Pharma, Big Ag, Big Government any more. The WEF, UN and WHO are hated and rightly distrusted. The digital titans building a digital prison, 15 minute cities and Agenda 2030/50/90, are widely seen as demonic, destructive.
The inexorable repression, the slow squeezing of the human into more a malleable, vegan, bug eating, docile, collectivist robot will not work. We aren’t accepting it. The rage, the anger, the mockery, the ascendance of Trump, of MAGA, of right-wing, anti-government populism all across the world is all down to this. The ideas don’t work. All they do is create anger, rebellion, division, and crime. And depression, drug addiction, women refusing to marry and have children, the direct end of humanity. Why have children when the rest of your life means being squeezed into a smaller and broker version of yourself?

The glitch is here: the polite left, the Ivy educated, the ones who think they know better, have circumvented the constitution, the balance of powers, and created a super-state, an entirely Prussian monster, a throwback to the days of Kings, the Star Chamber and tyranny, an abrogation of all power to themselves. They judge themselves, they never suffer consequences for their failures. Across the board, they have placed themselves above the law.
Their fate will be the same as Charles 1, who tried the same thing, beheaded in public.
Philip Hamburger, America’s acknowledged expert on the Administrative State, and the man who brought down Chevron, points out, “the gain in popular suffrage has been accompanied by disdain for the choices made through a representative system and a corresponding shift of legislative power out of Congress.”
The overturning of Chevron came in the most humble of clothing. In the Atlantic fishery, the government wants to make sure, correctly, that the fishery isn’t being depleted by over-fishing. So the government forced all boats to have a government official on board at all times. This cost $700 a day, paid by the boat owner, and for many it eliminated any profit they might make. The statute was silent as to who paid that bill, and so the government said the fisher paid. No recourse. No other solution.

If the statute is silent or ambiguous, the bureaucrat decides. Law deference. This translated to near everything. Agencies could decide what they wanted to do. They could create law, enforce it, and if challenged and brought before a judge, could cite Chevron Deference. In the absence of clear direction from Congress, the bureaucrat was all-powerful. And when it came to the facts of the case, the bureaucrat decided what facts were the real facts. Fact deference.
Chevron, brought and won in 1984 by the Rockefeller-founded Natural Resource Defence Council, (NDRC) was all about the Rockefeller push to sequester resources from “the people” and de-develop the earth in order to “save” it. Chevron morphed fast into destroying the economy in order to “save” it. It was the first incursion into American governance in the plan to create a World Government, a massive over-arching Administrative State that would control everything not nailed down.
The knock-on effects were legion, literally demonic and beyond counting. It moved power into the homogenized class of Ivy Leaguers who think they know better and actually know nothing about real life. It severely threatened civil liberties, it gutted the judiciary, it gutted Congress, it put all the power in the executive, the office of the President who directed the agencies. It made Congressmen and women into fundraisers and stripped them of their primary duty to collaborate while writing statutes. It made them trivial showmen. It stripped the will of the people from their government.
