They’re Not Sending Their Best

By Ben Hunt | March 15, 2022 | 16 Comments

The Big Oil Windfall Profits Tax Act is an abomination. It won’t lower gas prices, it will raise them. And the sponsors of the bill know it.

This bill was not written to become a good law. It was written to tell a good story.

Cursed Knowledge #9: Cat Eyes, Full Ass, Can’t Smile

By Harper Hunt | March 10, 2022 | 0 Comments

We’ve all felt insecure about our looks at one point or another. Especially in our chronically online world where how you look can be your whole brand.

Tough Guys

By Ben Hunt | March 7, 2022 | 49 Comments

Using NATO to escalate a shooting war with Russia – either directly through a no-fly zone or indirectly through a Polish cut-out and NATO “backfill” – is exactly what Putin wants. It’s the only thing that can save him. It’s how we ALL lose.

The Reckless Driver! TM Narrative

By Charles Marohn | February 21, 2022 | 15 Comments

Reckless Drivers! is the dominant narrative for increased traffic deaths in the US. It’s dominant not because it’s true (it’s not), but because it serves the interests of the Nudging State to blame and the Nudging Oligarchy to spend.

Quitters

By Brent Donnelly | February 17, 2022 | 3 Comments

in the spirit of the question we are always asking ourselves at Epsilon Theory – WHY AM I READING THIS NOW? – Brent asks a slightly different question about announcements of senior management departures. DOES WHAT I’M READING NOW MATTER?

Cursed Knowledge #8: Bad Publicity

By Harper Hunt | February 7, 2022 | 0 Comments

Someone once said there’s no such thing as bad publicity. With all due respect, this person is an idiot. Publicity, both good and bad, can have major ramifications. Even if you don’t play a part in creating it.

By Ben Hunt | February 2, 2022 | 78 Comments

Getting to War

By Ben Hunt | January 28, 2022 | 46 Comments

The international “negotiations” over Ukraine are 100% designed for domestic Russian consumption. They are as necessary a part of successfully invading Ukraine as mobilizing troops and tanks.
