"What we are observing are not changes in Russia toward democracy (as there are practically no such changes there — everything went backward), but rather sovietization of the West. This is what I am observing in horror. Over the last 25 years there has been a rapid sovietization of the West. This is very unpleasant. I have been living in England for 40 years now and I love England, it's a good country, it's my second homeland. And I observe in horror how everything that has been good in England begins to disappear, to become distorted, and to devolve, and how purely Soviet features begin to emerge."

"It is much easier to criticize the faults of a collapsing social order than to do constructive work on it."

The Collected Writings Gottfried Feder.

"As paper-money circulates in the world instead of real coin, so, is the place of true esteem and genuine friendship, you have the outward appearance of it—a mimic show made to look as much like the real thing as possible.

On the other hand, it may be asked whether there are any people who really deserve the true coin. For my own part, I should certainly pay more respect to an honest dog wagging his tail than to a hundred such demonstrations of human regard."

The Soldier and His Horse

War was raging, so the cavalryman was able to feed his horse with barley and give him good hay to eat, treating the horse as his noble companion in battle. Then the war came to an end and a time of peace ensued. The soldier was no longer given wages by the state so his horse now had to work all the time carrying heavy logs down out of the woods into the city. In addition, his owner hired the horse out to other people to carry their loads as well. All the while, the horse had as his food only the worst sort of chaff, and the harness he wore on his back was no longer that of a warhorse. Some time later, the clash of battle resounded once again around the city walls, and the trumpet summoned every man to dust off his shield, sharpen his sword, and ready his horse. The horse's owner put the bridle back on his steed, but when he led the horse out to be mounted, the horse collapsed and fell to his knees, having lost all his former strength. 'Go join the infantry!' the horse told his owner. 'You have transferred me from the horse regiment to the donkeys; do you really think you can just change me back again?'

Cuba's food ration book: example of total control

Cuba headed by a communist government served as a good example to show what the future will look like, if a globalist-collectivist government takes over. How it was introduced: After the revolutionaries took over and played the role of heroes, they transformed the country into a prison, taking direct control of food production. They constantly repeated the phrase, "We need to all make more sacrifices for the revolution," over and over for decades. The government's task was blame shifting and keeping their ideological dream alive, but people can't eat dreams. Food was scarce, people often went without meat for days, the staple diet was rice and beans in moderation. Some wanted out, but "for the sake of the revolution" they were told to stay (or else). Despite using a ration system for 60 years, their revolutionary leaders don't want to lose control and stop it, nor is it easy after 3 generations, for the indoctrinated population to imagine life without it.

#NeverForgetTheLeftHatesYou

"It's smart to be polite—so being rude for no good reason is just plain dumb.
Going out of your way to be unnecessarily rude is like deliberately making enemies when you don't have to; it's as self-destructive as burning down your own house.
Politeness is basically fake currency—a counterfeit coin that everyone agrees to treat as real. Only a fool would be stingy with it. A wise person spends it freely.
That's why letters in most languages end with phrases like "your most obedient servant," "votre très-humble serviteur," or "suo devotissimo servo." The Germans are the only ones who drop the "servant" (Diener) part—because, obviously, it's not literally true!
That said, don't take politeness so far that it hurts your own interests. That's like handing over real money when everyone else is just trading fake tokens."

In two events, Buffett helped raise $210 million in direct investments to the State of Israel from American based investors. Silverstein and Buffett are both 'prophets'—Silverstein for insuring the old WTC against terrorism before its demolition, and Buffett for keeping cash on hand to buy undervalued stocks just before economic downturns in the U.S.
