The best remedy for feeling overwhelmed is to count your blessings. Sometimes that requires stepping back for a moment and reflecting on all the marvelous things we're taking for granted each day. Alexander Hammond walks us through the 20 biggest advances in technology in the past 20 years.
The flipside to the technological advances that make our lives better is the growing technocracy that's been trying to gain control over our lives this past year and a half. Thomas L. Knapp sounds a hopeful note that, thanks to Covid-19, the technocracy has flowered and failed.
We're learning, at some cost, that the Constitution is not enough to keep our elected representatives from abusing the power with which they've been temporarily entrusted. Judge Andrew Napolitano points out that when the Constitution fails us, that's the time to nullify government interference with our personal autonomy.

A healthy sense of skepticism is a good thing. Especially when people or institutions are demanding you do things "for your own good." Liam Cosgrove has a fascinating take on regulatory capture in the age of Covid-19. He also has some great information on Ivermectin as a treatment for Covid.
One of the reasons so many people still view the state as their primary problem-solver is that they've been trained to do so since around age 5. Kent McManigal reminds us that a great many of our current problems are the result of state interference, not a matter of too little government.
Here's some promising news: A Harvard epidemiologist is citing a newly published medical study that shows natural immunity in those who've had Covid provides stronger and longer-lasting protection against the virus. Jon Miltimore explains that this means vaccine passports are not necessary.

Too much of the drama that drives our society is the result of becoming focused on personalities rather than principles. Having said that, Cheryl K. Chumley has an excellent article on Joe Rogan vs. Dr. Fauci and why one is more trustworthy than the other.
People who don't know history can find it difficult to connect the dots of how the world really works. Joakim Book has a thought-provoking article on the five transitions to modernity and how understanding them can help us better appreciate our options.
Government health officials are already suggesting that unvaccinated people not travel for the Labor Day holiday. Can vaccine mandates be far behind? Before you surrender to their demands, take a closer look at the FDA's fact sheet for Pfizer's Comirnaty vaccine which clearly states that "it's your choice to receive or not receive" the vaccine.
Make no mistake, the great test of the moment is on the shoulders of those who will not comply with demands to get the vaccine. Jon Rappoport says this is where your ability to stand firm in your faith, conviction and courage is the key.

Given the number of people who've been vaccinated who still become infected, vaccine passports seem like a pretty useless idea. Nevertheless, according to Helen Andrews, the U.S. government is plowing ahead full steam to implement them. This is one of the places where we can draw a line and say "no."
If anyone has the right to say, "I told you so" it would be Michael Snyder. He has been warning of our nation's alarming change in direction toward dictatorship for many years. In his most recent column he makes another point worth considering--this thing isn't going to correct itself. We have to quit playing along.
Each week Eric Peters from EP Autos drops by to give his take on the passing scene. This week we touch on how the government "saves" us money, who killed the electric car that worked and why you should trust your instincts to never do what government is insisting you do.

If you need to have your perspective recalibrated from time to time, there's nothing quite like taking the time to appreciate all the little things that make life great. Art Carden has a marvelous piece on the the symphonies of cooperation that take place daily to keep us fed, clothed and sheltered.
The worst part of the various restrictions on our lives and freedoms is that the people calling for them insist that this is all being done "for our own good." TE Creus wonders why big government and big buiness are pretending that they are our strict but caring parents and we're just a bunch of unruly children in need of their guidance.
For folks who are paying attention, there's a growing shortage of plastic products. Peter C. Earle warns that Hurricane Ida may have just set the global plastic market back even further.
The principle that underlies the hesitation so many feel toward taking the Covid vaccine is a principle of personal autonomy called informed consent. As William Sullivan explains, informed consent is being transformed into coercion of the uninformed. You can't stand for your rights if you don't know them.

A lot has changed in the past 18 months. How many of those changes do you wish could be permanent? Before you answer, take a look at a very interesting two minute video from the World Economic Forum titled "This is How Our Lives Could Soon Look" and see what those-who-know-best are thinking.
The beautiful thing about wisdom is that it remains applicable in all times and places. How we might respond to today's crisis is something that Thomas Paine wrote about in 1776. There really is nothing new under the sun.
A special bonus for those who are serious about stocking up on intellectual ammo regarding the public health mandates. Paul E. Alexander has put together a comprehensive and well-sourced explanation of why Covid-19 mandates will not work for the delta variant. Take your time and see for yourself if his conclusions add up.
Would it surprise you to learn that no tyrant can gain absolute power over you without your voluntary consent? Dr. Joseph Mercola asks will you love your servitude? Because we're all being conditioned to do exactly that.

One of the biggest challenges of living through difficult times is becoming resilient enough to not only survive but to improve when things go sideways. Leo Babauta has some excellent advice on how to develop extraordinary resilience.
Just how important is our freedom of conscience? Before answering that question, consider how many people in official positions are currenty dismissing matters of conscience. Scott Mason asks whether national Covid mandates fulfill the public good.
It's not hard to understand how money allows us to transport value across time. But when the time are changing, it's hard to say whether that value will be there in the future? Joakim Book explores the question of how do societies save for an uncertain future?
It's wise to learn from our own mistakes. It's also admirable when we can learn from the mistakes of others. Jon Miltimore describes how Australia has created a police state to stop Covid-19 but the data shows that it's not working. What might we learn from their experience?

Sometimes we wonder if there's anyone out there looking out for us. One thing we know for certain, there are some folks who are definitely looking at us, and not in a good way. Edward Snowden is warning Apple customers that the all-seeing "i' in your iPhone has just declared war on your privacy.
Current events are making it clear that there are few things as important as being able to make your own informed health decisions. No one has been fighting harder to protect that right than my friend Kristen Chevrier from Your Health Freedom. She joins me to discuss her upcoming symposium Sept 11 in Layton, Utah.
What would prompt a promising young student to give up his seat in a prestigious law school just one week before orientation? Brett Cooper has some surprisingly solid reasons for her decision and why she's focusing her energy and resources elsewhere.
The U.S. government's definition of what constitutes a potential terrorist is getting downright silly. We're to the point where any disagreement with some government policy is enough to put you under suspicion. Jeff Minnick has an excellent column on keeping an eye on grandpa, the terrorist.
The author of Pandemic Blunder Dr. Joel S. Hirschhorn is my guest as we discuss the ongoing savaging of our medical freedoms under the current pandemic. Dr. Hirschhorn has some strong thoughts on the FDA's approval of the Pfizer vaccine and the current push to get people vaccinated.

The authoritarian lockdown measures being implemented in Australia and New Zealand are perfect examples of a real world dystopia. Thousand dollar fines if you are caught going outside alone for fresh air? Unreal. Jim Bovard reminds us that absolute power is no Covid safety net.
This is probably a good time to remind ourselves that Australia and New Zealand systematically disarmed as many of their citizens as possible more than 2 decades ago. It's a safe bet that similar calls for disarming the American public are coming. As J.D. Tuccille notes, it's doubtful that American gun owners will comply with similar laws. Getting people to obey bad laws can be tricky.
I know we're supposed to believe that the vaccine is the answer to "beating the virus." But this narrative isn't exactly squaring with reality right now. Tyler Durden from Zero Hedge documents how even mainstream media is finally asking big questions about the covid vaccines.
