I have been asking experts to explain exactly what artificial intelligence is. So far, not a one has given a cohesive answer. That doesn’t mean it is not anything. Never discount this kind of development, even though it may not have any personal utility to you at the moment. Every new invention I can remember, got dismissed by many as something that would never catch on…. automobiles, computers, smartphones and so on. AI, most likely will change the world. Based on initial observations as to how it is being used now, it is a destructive joke of a development.
Is it good for further enslaving the global population? AI is being used in an attempt to do just that. So far, it has only created a degree of online chaos, that is driving folks offline. It is a great money saver for the online industry but, is that worth the business it is running off? Continue reading

Supposed you owned a bakery and a man from the government came by and and told you that from now on the government was going to cover the cost of inventory for you and all of the bakers in the country. All you had to do is make the bread and pastries and pay other normal costs of doing business. Your profits would sky rocket. In a short time, you might begin to believe that it was good for the rest of the country to get free flour from the government. But, in fact the country would produce far too many baked goods which would be a big misallocation of the country’s resources.
Money is the inventory that banks carry. In a free market setting, banks have to buy their inventory by paying people enough interest to encourage them to save. In the US today, banks get from the government what is very close to free money. Continue reading

Thanks to everyone who visits jamesquillian.com. Also, thank you for your concerns and prayers with regard to my increasingly serious health issue. This is impacting my ability to post new articles. I make no secret that I am a man of faith. I have no fear of being physically dead. However, the process of becoming dead is completely unpleasant and and is physically limiting.
Suddenly, visits to Fantasy Fee Economics have been exploding. When one does not believe the lies of life, things I surmise in this blog are completely obvious
Believe no lies and the truth of any situation becomes obvious. just by not believing lies, anyone can do what I do here. Dispose of lies and inborn sensibilities will guide you to the truth. Otherwise, acquired sensibilities take control and misguide you.
The truth is a hard sell. No matter how good it sounds, I lie can be told that sound even better,
In the event of my departure, the blog will remain up for at least another year, Thanks again for reading.

What we have in the United Sates is a multitude of fools. What is a fool other than one who bases his life on things that are not true because the truth is too daunting? What is meaningful to a fool? Why that would be entertainment and engaging in mindless fantasy. Politics comes down to seeking political messiahs and virtue signaling. The role of citizen in a democracy, is to take authority over government and leaders. American citizens do just the opposite.
As unpleasant as they are, here are the facts.
While republican identify themselves as conservatives, they embrace political initiatives which are even more socialist than those suggested by the unapologetic classic socialists in the Democratic party. Continue reading

Stock Market Assessment and Positions 050825 PDF
I am basically a technician who has abandoned technical analysis for the time being. Buy signals still work and sell signals serve as buy signals as well. Any sell signal triggers a short squeeze. The charts below are of NBI, the biotech index. Notice the short squeeze, as soon as the long term trendline had been broken. This happens in unmanipulated markets but in this market nearly 100% of the time. I don’t know of a way to short stocks in this market without getting squeezed out. I go with inverse ETFs and hold the positions. Notice the second long-term chart. You can see the consequences of significantly breaking that long-term pattern.

Tariffs are taxes on the overall population. The U.S. is broke. Consumer prices are skyrocketing. Individual citizens are the only entities which have any true income, or for that matter any genuine assets. In order to survive, the government must find ways to bleed what is left in resources out of the general population. The only other solution is to start closing Federal Agencies or cutting salaries of Federal employees.
Tariffs can be described as a benefit, and guess what? A huge portion of the population can be duped into believing that they are. I have this saying. Never trust a politician, billionaire or broadcaster, Tariffs work against you, despite what these types say.
How is this possible in a democracy? As I say, democracy is the wrong system for a people who trust leadership. Americans hang on every word coming out of the mouths of the powerful. It is as simple as that. Add to that a number of misguided myths that purvey the national consciousness, as follows. here are a few. Continue reading

Ways to Close the Wealth Inequality Gap PDF
Ronald Reagan set the precedent first by embracing the Full Employment act of 1978 – which changed the economy from free market…. to planned. Since that time, the rich have done the planning. All administrations since have followed Reagan’s lead. It has been nothing but deficit spending and money printing ever since. The rise of the government -made billionaires followed.
Ronald Reagan was the first president to tamper with the financial markets following the crash of 1987.
Ronald Reagan’s programs have been followed by the creation of the huge wealth gap we have today. It was about normal when he took office. Even today, after all of the damage done, Reagan is still held out as the perfect icon of a conservative

Wealth Redistributing in the USA PDF
iven the current mentality of U.S. citizens, it can’t be done. As long as voters trust their leaders, folks will just have to wallow in their misery. Democracy only benefits a population which does not trust its government. If this was not the case, there would be no point in having a democracy or a republic.
As long as citizens trust their leaders , a few will use government as a means of drawing wealth in their direction. So, with wealth disparities and a population that views government as their friend, there will be more disparities to come.

Why Official Anti-Inflation Programs Fail PDF
This is because government serves as a place where smart people go to wrench what they want out of others, who believe it is being used for its intended purpose.
Lower interest rates and inflation increases. Raise interest rates and the government can’t service the enormous debt it has accumulated.
This problem cannot be solved. We get problems like this because U.S. Citizens trust their government. The founding fathers didn’t trust government. They probably never fathomed that their posterity would. Americans are about to find out why they didn’t.
