The Barbarian Revisited

“Each new generation born is in effect an invasion of civilization by little barbarians, who must be civilized before it is too late.” [The Wiggin Sessions] January 13, 2023 [WEBSITE]( | [UNSUBSCRIBE]( The Barbarian Revisited “Each new generation born is in effect an invasion of civilization by little barbarians, who must be civilized before it is too late.” – Thomas Sowell [Addison Wiggin] Addison Wiggin Dear Reader, “Mr Addison,” writes reader JC, “as I understand Socialism, it becomes Communism, which means everything belongs to everybody with the dictatorship deciding the shares.” Granted we’re not reading into JC’s initials, but we’ve rounded the corner into 2023 and Easter isn’t far away. We don’t mind getting this observation from the big man himself. “The end point means,” our fair reader continues, “the government controls all the metals and you don't own what you don't control. I mean to say, your gold will become the ruler's commode flush handle. Now go eat your bugs, useless eater!" “You guys do realize that if the government does all the talking, there won't be much room for you either.” Reader mail is fun. This week, we tackled the supreme “barbarian of specialization” himself, Anthony Fauci. A friend of ours, Jeff Hays, made a movie out of the book, The Real Anthony Fauci, written by Robert Kennedy. You’ll get to see Fauci’s countenance below, several times. Just doing the interview with Mr. Hays, publishing ideas around it and connecting the dots back to the news cycle this week has brought down a maelstrom of reader mail — some for, some against, some just confused. Why we’d write about this topic? Are we conspiracy theorists?

When things get squirrely and go sideways, like today, a selloff is often not far behind. Ours is not a teleological argument. But hewn from 30 years of watching the markets and poking at these keys.

It also had the third most billion-dollar disasters, according to scientists at the Copernicus Climate Change Service, with Europe clocking in its hottest summer ever recorded, and California sustaining a historic drought, followed by a bomb cyclone last week which pummeled the “Pacific Northwest.” Perhaps this spells the end of the Mediterranean diet. Or the ushering in of a new green politique, one charged with emotional suggestion, but a Trojan horse nonetheless. A year of global highs and lows! Translation: “The middle of the road leads to socialism,” like the Ludwig von Mises book title goes.

P.P.S. The term “barbarian of specialization” is not ours. It comes from the 1929 classic Revolt of the Masses written by the Spanish philosopher Ortega y Gasset.
