C. 20500 Dear Morton: We all missed you and were sorry you were unable to join us during the meeting of the Board of Governors last week in Colorado Springs. Everyone felt it was a very productive and successful meeting. Of course, Ambassador Jeane Kirkpatrick's address was the highlight of the meeting, but there were many other important and interesting presentations as well. I thought you might want to have a copy of the program of the meeting for your files. Please be sure to look over the list of new members - we added a truly outstanding new group. They include Frank Shakespeare, president of RKO General, Inc.; Dr. Cory SerVaas, publisher of the Saturday Evening Post; Rich deVos, president of Amway Corporation and co-chairman of Mutual Broadcasting; John McGoff, publisher of the Sacramento Union, and many others. I will be sending an updated mailing list in a few days. -
The End of Economics, Or, Is
THE END OF ECONOMICS, OR, IS UTILITARIANISM FINISHED? By John D. Mueller James Madison Program Fellow Fellow of The Lehrman Institute President, LBMC LLC Princeton University, 127 Corwin Hall, 15 April 2002 Summary. According to Lionel Robbins’ classic definition, “Economics is the science which studies human behavior as a relationship between ends and scarce means that have alternate uses.” Yet most modern economists assume that economic choice involves only the means and not to the ends of human action. The reason seems to be that most modern economists are ignorant of the history of their own discipline before Adam Smith or Jeremy Bentham. Leading economists like Gary Becker attempt to explain all human behavior, including love and hate, as a maximization of “utility.” But historically and logically, an adequate description of economic choice has always required both a ranking of persons as ends and a ranking of scarce goods as means. What is missing from modern economics is an adequate description of the ranking of persons as ends. This is reflected in the absence of a satisfactory microeconomic explanation (for example, within the household) as to how goods are distributed to their final users, and in an overemphasis at the political level on an “individualistic social welfare function,” by which policymakers are purported to add up the preferences of a society of selfish individuals and determine all distribution from the government downwards, as if the nation or the world were one large household. As this “hole” in economic theory is recognized, an army of “neo-scholastic” economists will find full employment for the first few decades of the 21st Century, busily rewriting the Utilitarian “economic approach to human behavior” that dominated the last three decades of the 20th Century. -

Degree awarded June 2018 ii © 2018 Benedikt Springer iii DISSERTATION ABSTRACT Benedikt Springer Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science June 2018 Title: Building Markets? Neoliberalism, Competitive Federalism, and the Enduring Fragmentation of the American Market Why do interstate barriers persist and proliferate in the US and go unnoticed by neoliberal policy-makers, while in other places, like the EU, they get systematically addressed? I challenge the common assumption that the EU is trying but failing to emulate the single market created in the US a long time ago. I show that in many ways, the EU has adopted more liberal rules for the exchange of goods and services across its members states than the US has in effect across its state borders. -

An Interview with Sharyl Attkinson
Exclusive: An interview with investigative reporter Sharyl Attkisson by Jon Rappoport April 25, 2014; www.nomorefakenews.com Before her recent resignation from CBS, Sharyl Attkisson was a mainstream news star. Multiple Emmys. CNN anchor, CBS anchor on stories about space exploration. Host of CBS’ News Up to the Minute. PBS host for Health Week. Investigative reporter for CBS. Attkisson dug deep into Fast&Furious, Benghazi, and the ill-effects of vaccines. Too deep. Her bosses shut her down and didn’t air key stories. She now has her own website, sharylattkisson.com. She is writing a book, Stonewalled: My Fight for the Truth Against the Forces of Obstruction, Intimidation and Harassment in Obama’s Washington. It’s not every day that a major mainstream journalist leaves the fold and then seeks to expose the corruption that impinged on her work. She agreed to do an email interview. Some of the questions I sent went to the heart of her book-in-progress, so she declined to answer them. However, her answers to my other questions were revealing and explosive. I know you’ve had problems with your Wikipedia page. What happened there? Long story short: there is a concreted effort by special interests who exploit Wikipedia editing privileges to control my biographical page to disparage my reporting on certain topics and skew the information. Judging from the editing, the interest(s) involved relates to the pharmaceutical/vaccine industry. I am far from alone. There is an entire Wikipedia subculture that exists to control pages and topics, and another one that watchdogs all that’s gone wrong with Wikipedia (Wikipediocracy). -
