Somewhere in America there's a local ordinance that tells you which way your garage has to face.
Another one dictates what your fence can be made of, and a third sets how many square feet of window your house needs. A few spell out the dimensions of particular features down to a quarter of an inch.
The National Association of Home Builders, the trade group for the companies that build American homes, has been adding up what rules like these cost since 2011.

"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies."- Thomas Jefferson
When the Trump administration-and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent in particular-began invoking Alexander Hamilton as the blueprint for a new American economic order, I had to pause.
Multiculturalism, Diversity and the Destruction of Western Civilization

Multiculturalism's advocates present their agenda in terms of enhancing diversity. By diversity they mean more variety, not what the DEI advocates mean by the word-replacement of merit by some definition of privilege, such as race, gender, sexual preference.
The goal of multiculturalism is miscegenation. The result is the disappearance of diversity into a mixture born naked of a history, mores, a language, and a religion.
America's Fading Hegemony and the New World Order

International Man

International Man: For decades, the US has been the world's dominant military, financial, and political power. Where is the American empire today ? Are we witnessing a temporary period of weakness-or something more fundamental, like the beginning of the end of US global hegemony?
Doug Casey: The U.S. today is a very different country than it was in 1946.

I love your analysis of Steinem's role in convincing American women that they were being "liberated" by doing double duty in a 40 hour a week job and 20+ hours a week taking care of their husband, children and elderly parents.
Le populisme prospère sur le terreau d'une démocratie paralysée
L'arrogance morale empêche toute discussion ouverte
Herbert Ammon

L'AfD, parti populiste de droite, doit son ascension non seulement à des décisions politiques contestables, mais aussi au fait que toute discussion sur la question centrale de l'immigration sans limites est rejetée avec une "arrogance morale provocatrice" (comte Kielmannsegg).
Les Alaouites de Syrie n'ont d'autre choix que de résister
Damir Nazarov
Plus d'un an s'est écoulé depuis les crimes effroyables commis contre les Alaouites par le régime syrien issu d'Al-Qaïda. Ces événements peuvent à juste titre être qualifiés de génocide; selon diverses sources, plus de 2000 personnes ont été tuées. Le génocide s'est produit tout le long de la côte syrienne, de Lattaquié à Tartous, avant de s'étendre à Homs et à Hama.
La social-démocratie allemande lutte pour ne pas disparaître
Source: mpr21.info
Le Parti social-démocrate, le plus ancien d'Allemagne, s'enfonce toujours davantage dans la crise. Les électeurs s'en détournent et les dissensions s'accentuent. Des élections doivent avoir lieu en Saxe-Anhalt et les prévisions annoncent la victoire de l'AfD, qualifiée d'"extrême droite".
Ce n'est pas seulement la crise d'un parti, mais celle de l'État allemand édifié dans l'après-guerre et réunifié en 1990.
