I have long noticed that Capitalism and Communism are two faces of the same coin. As Antony Sutton pointed out in his many books, the Bolshevik and Nazi revolutions were both financed by Wall Street.
I used to be involved in Libertarian politics in my younger years, mostly because, as an "Aspie", I empathized with outsiders and have always been strongly "civil libertarian" in my outlook.
However, my disenchantment started when I tried to read Ludwig von Mises" "Human Action" with its self-referential, circular philosophy of "praxeology." He states, "The incentive that impels a man to act is always some uneasiness." What a trivialization of the soul! I see here the "flatness of affect" that Lobaczewski talks about in schizoid intellectuals.
To put it another way, left-wing "Communism" and right-wing "Economism" share the same reductionist materialistic roots. I like that word "Economism." It "kinda sorta" SOUNDS like Communism because it "kinda sorta" IS like Communism!
At the core, all the modern definitions of Totalitarian/Authoritarian Economic Models are in actuality REBRANDED to create confusion since 'Centralized, Abusive, Central Govt. thieving upon its citizens has long been defined IMPERIALISM. In reality, there is NO left or right...It's a construct used to confuse just as the words used to define Govt. associated with Economic Systems is devised to confuse. Confusion, itself, is a tool used by evil.
IMPERIALISM became associated with negativity since the U.S. Declaration of Independence followed by U.S. Revolution which was reinforced in the mind of the average citizen of any country with the French Revolution. While in reality, the two were completely different based in ideology and origin as well as stated goals and declared ambitions...The common citizens viewed them the same at the time and even to this current day.
Reached the conclusion...All Earthly Govt. is imperfect and at risk of pathology as those attracted to any variant of pathology are always present to implement any given system to selfish advantage over others. Evil is, after all, a universal sickness; the worst of disease. The U.S. System has seemed better than other Govt. Models since built-in Federalism is an obstacle for any seeking to achieve a Bureaucratic Imperialism as the U.S Govt appears to have become in these recent 80 years since FDR and WWII.
The Holy Bible basically concerns GOVERNMENT and the fact of humans lacking the ability to govern...Which only God has the power to actually do. With age, have consistently agreed with The Holy Bible more and more.
"As I stated above, I’m not an economist so I’m not suited to judge the merits of Khazin’s work. I’ll just add that as a ponerology enthusiast, I think that economics, like all human systems, cannot be abstracted or disconnected from psychology."
Perhaps you aren't entirely qualified to proofread the formulae employed by economists in supporting their prognostications, Mr. Koehli, but your assertion that economics and psychology are inseparable, is foundational to economics.

Very interesting article but it seems like you're equating the hyperliberalism of groups like gender ideologues - who absolutely DO want to destroy family relations - with communism, simply because those ideologues call themselves communists. Actual communist societies have been by and large socially conservative, and while they might have/had problems, it feels to me a bit disingenuous to connect them to liberalism
That wasn’t exactly the point I was making. The connection was that they both function as pathocratic ideologies. And even if communist countries became socially conservative with time (i.e. after they became entrenched), one of the central tenets of all socialist ideologies is a strong bias against the family. For that point, see “The Socialist Phenomenon” by Shafarevich.

Though many have seen the international bankers as the "bad guys," I don't think the model of developing cash flow through debt and interest is solely the creation of bankers. It is the traditional source of wealth for the investing classes. Now, with IRAs and the general opening up of investment markets to "ordinary" people, investing is widely practiced and no longer the "sin of the rich." Yet, strictly speaking, investment creates "wealth" without any productive work being done on the part of the investor. Well, how do we support those who are too old or sick to work? The only answer is some sort of system that generates cash flow in the name of someone who isn't actually working. Children fall into this category as well.
Of course, when investment is indulged in with no idea that it is being done to support productive work, then the "wealth" generated by investment (or loaning money) is false. Supposedly, the loan is paid back because the borrower has used the loan to become more productive, thus earning enough to pay off the loan. If this is not the situation, then the activity of loaning money becomes unsustainable in the long run. When we lost American manufacturing this is essentially what happened, and with all the most risky loans being held by the federal government, we see that government in a huge economic crisis, while corporate America seems to be doing OK. We cannot let this pattern continue or it will ruin us (as individuals) financially, as it is in the process of doing.
At any rate, it is interesting to see all of this come from a Russian academic. In these days particularly, we share much too few thoughts and ideas with that great (former) eastern empire. The same could be said of China, I suppose.
yeah I agree with you - "Hunting for the root cause" is a way leading to Jews, banksters but nothing above. At best, "Zionists"
It is odd that "greed" never comes by more often - most people know about that one
"At any rate, it is interesting to see all of this come from a Russian academic. In these days particularly, we share much too few thoughts and ideas with that great (former) eastern empire. The same could be said of China, I suppose."
not to speak of asking for a helping hand! How come such concept is never on the table?
The only logical observation is: WHY SHOULD NATIONS GIVE THE PRIVILEGE OF ISSUING OF THEIR CURRENCIES TO BANKSTERS? And, consequently, call that printed paper nots (fiat money) a loan that must be payed off with interest?
Let me have some retarded "economist" answer such obvious question.
people are correctly identifying "abolition of traditional values" (conscioulsy or less consciously - but they see it, they feel it) but they are then linking it to "communism", "marxism" which are their internal refferals for "abolition of family".
Still, this time it was capitalism who has been the vehicle for mass problems.
The question is how come that given that the 2000's were featuring a quite high cautiousness about "money greed", capitalism "went through"? "Money greed", after all, is a big basic and people basically know that it's not the way. Still, it successfully made it's way further than the danger zone, and it has become a vehicle for a pathocracy.
If such a fundamental (watch out for money greed & stuffs) went through the drops, chances are that "war" has been another one too.
We would, overall, be studying the erosion of the mind's structure designed to shield us from capitalism, war, and leading to their acceptance as being "valid stuffs".

Great insights how a pathocratic system selects for an promotes those who share its anti-morailty.
Thanks for bringing these comparisons, and thus putting words to what we observe in the liberal Western 'democracies in the context of ponerology.
As always, nailed it!

Any "economist" willing to address that question would not find paying work as an economist. Their job is to blow smoke for the pathocrats.
