Pyramid Building and China


     In Ancient Egypt, sovereign projects constructing humongous objects of, at best, questionable economic value ushered in prosperous times.  Somehow, massive monoliths carved from stone quarried at faraway sites were dragged, carted, barged, tugged, pushed/pulled on rollers, or otherwise lugged, and likely manhandled into place, piled atop one another in ways scholars can't begin to explain, let alone agree upon, today.

     The sophistry of John Maynard Keynes has fallen into this very same category over his recent NIRP ZIRP era.  Only, the pyramids remain, looted but still basking under their brutal desert sun, while worldwide, economic structures built by Keynesian theory lie in shambles, crumbling to the ground.

     Looking away from the failed hooey of academia and casting one eye on the ancients and the other on our commie friends in China, modern man can see a sure way out of his current economic malaise ....

     Build more empty cities.  Lots more.  Tear the old ones down if you want, pulverize everything, and begin anew.  Or not.  Just build more.  What difference does it make, how many empty cities you have?  What difference did it make, how many pyramids they had?  Millennia from now, people will marvel at what we will have done.

     Everybody join in.  New York City is way overcrowded.  Build New York City 2.  If somebody moves in, all the better, and they will in many, many places.  London 2, Paris 2, Mexico City 2.

     Mexico City 3, Mexico City 4, and Mexico Cities 5 through 9 if Donald Trump gets elected.

     And while we're at it, lets get rid of the central bankers too.  Keynes needed a banking system to screw with, and we probably ought to keep that, but you can eliminate the means by which his extravagant poppycock has thrown the world into a Lords of Finance forex free-for-all amidst backbreaking debt raised by failed politicians kept in power through an attack on savers, the very people who are any economy's greatest strength.

     Dump them all.  With demand side economics, or supply side, a case to keep central bankers around could be made, well conceivably anyway, but under pyramid side economic theory, we won't be needing a single one.
