here i thought Keiser made a report called "Warning, no bitcoin"


I think he in fact uttered the word bitcoin in the second half of the program.

warning no bitcoin

Are we saying this is an article not related to bitcoin?  Shouldn't this be in the "other" section?

Yep, I appreciate the OP's intent to spread interesting newsbits, but I'd also really prefer the Press section to be focused on purely Bitcoin news & mentions, that's what makes the signal-to-noise ratio here much nicer than on the rest of the forum.  Perhaps we should have a separate board for news that are tangential.

Ok, agree

Do I smell a child node in the making?

The first part of this Kaiser episode is about Cargo Cult science

Introduced by Richard Feynman in 1974 to describe sciences that are not really sciences, but religions akin to the cargo cults that developed amongst primitive people after westerners had visited and left.

Although Feynman did not use these as examles, I do think they fit perfectly:

a) global warming
b) current mainstream keynesianism

This is Keiser and his partner Stacey Herbert about the money printing cargo cult
