The Needle Dictatorship

from Standup Historian - Kourosh · host Standup Historian

In the 21st century, political power grows in the labs and out of a needle. A global dictatorship is in the making, and those who planned it put the full force of fear and intimidation to subdue the world population into total submission. Their primary weapon is a needle. We have seen Velvet Revolutions, Arab Spring, and Green Movement, where apparently, people took on to the streets to protest the ruling dictators and tyrants in many parts of the world.

The Law Dave Jones This translation of The Law was done by Dean Russell of The Foundation staff. His objective was an accurate rendering of Mr. Bastiat's words and ideas into twentieth century, idiomatic English. A nineteenth century translation of The Law, made in 1853 in England by an unidentified contemporary of Mr. Bastiat, was of much value as a check against this translation. In addition, Dean Russell had his work reviewed by Bertrand de Jouvenel, the noted French economist, historian, and author who is also thoroughly familiar with the English language. While Mr. de Jouvenel offered many valuable corrections and suggestions, it should be clearly understood that Dr. Russell bears full responsibility for the translation.
