NEW YORK (PNN) - October 3, 2026 - On Theo Von's podcast, This Past Weekend, Marxist New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani defined socialism as the government delivering whatever you need for a dignified life. That is Karl Marx's rule for Communism's last stage - and New York is already getting the invoice.

Von asked him to Mamdani to define socialism. Mamdani said socialism means you will have whatever you need to live a dignified life, and that it is the government's job to deliver on that. Housing. Childcare. Transit. The things, he said, that let you take a breath.

September 28, 2026 - Rather than being a radical antidote to the perceived errors of market
capitalism, socialism is actually very similar to capitalism, but with some extra steps of inefficiency. Capitalism often consolidates the means of production through increasing returns to scale, and sorts people into roles where they would add the most value to the economic welfare of society. The capitalistic system then lets the people own the means of production through stocks and bonds while giving most people a relatively risk-free life where entrepreneurs bear most of the risk. Rather than an agricultural ownership economy where risk was borne uniformly, capitalism concentrates high risk-bearing to a few people. Socialism shifts the risks and responsibilities of individuals to the state, but does so with mediated consent and adds in some
extra steps of inefficiency that are not present in capitalism. Modern capitalism provides most people with a simple path to a decent livelihood without the risks of the more distributed entrepreneurship that was common in the past. Socialism seeks to do the same thing, but the extra layers of government mediation create less efficient outcomes and allocative problems that are far too difficult to solve with central planning. Socialism does not solve the fundamental anxiety-producing problem of capitalism, rather, it merely worsens it.

September 23, 2026 - Conscription is a form of indentured servitude. American economist of the Austrian School, economic historian, political theorist, and activist Murray Rothbard argued that everyone has a natural right to self-defense, but “we have no moral right to use coercion - the bayonet or the revolver - to force someone else to defend us.”

WASHINGTON (PNN) - September 19, 2026 - The United States has infinite military basing in Greenland, permanent overflight, and bases can be expanded at will without further discussion. The U.S. has right of first refusal of any mineral deal. No other country can have military personnel or bases in Greenland. There is no cost to the U.S. for this. Any actual development of
minerals will be negotiated.
