Impacts Of Rising Nitrogen Costs
As noted, AFPC’s study shows farmers are currently facing nitrogen costs 80% higher than last year. That’s as Anhydrous Ammonia prices reached 2008 levels in October at over 1,000 dollars per ton. And those prices have been steadily rising ever since. “You're talking fertilizer price that have gone up somewhere close to $200 an acre for this next year for some producers, and the revenue being generated is not offsetting that. And that's just the fertilizer industry,” says Edgington. “That’s not even talking about the chemistry industry or land values or equipment that people can't get....
Vaccines, Autonomy, and Mandates: A Libertarian Analysis
Prefatory Note Given the subject matter discussed below, I believe it prudent to state at the outset that I am not at all opposed to vaccinations themselves: indeed, I have received a COVID-19 vaccine, as well as all other normal-course vaccinations recommended for someone my age. Yet there are, it seems to me, interesting, difficult questions surrounding the state’s role in promoting or mandating vaccines. The goal here is to start a conversation not about the effectiveness of vaccines, but about the individual’s sphere of autonomy and what kinds of medical decisions are within it, and...
Lunatic With a Plan: Erdogan and Turkey’s Economic Woes
Since the first assault on Turkey’s finances in 2018, which I wrote about multiple times (here, here, and here), I’ve been the lone voice telling everyone that President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is a lunatic but he’s a lunatic with a plan. That plan is to de-dollarize the economy of a valuable member of NATO geostrategically. Since the first shots across the bow by the Trump administration at Erdogan’s toying with those powers east of the Bosporus (Russia, China and Iran) the Turkish lira has been the primary mode of attack against Erdogan. Erdogan has pursued what has been deemed unorthodox...

Loser Michele Flournoy
She always loses. Like that time she tripled and lost the war in Afghanistan. She could have been Obama's secretary of defense. The first woman(!) and everything. But no, she decided to wait so she could be appointed by Hillary Clinton and be a part of the big women taking over the government and smashing the glass ceiling together thing and all that. So she let it be known she did not seek and would not accept Obama's nomination for SecDef. Then Hillary lost! Haha. So Flournoy was in purgatory for four years, making millions of dollars from arms dealers. Waiting. Then Biden won the...
