Mailvox: dodging the bullet
But everything fits; it's unfortunate that the partnership between Castalia House and someone won't come to be.

Debt Forgiveness, Debt Jubilees, and Personal Responsibility
Michael Hudson: Our Neo-Feudal System Is on the Verge of Collapse and A Debt Jubilee Is the Only Way to Avoid Depression
Vox Day: The need for a debt jubilee and The answer to the "responsibility" objection
Paul Craig Roberts: Everything Accomplished During the Great Depression to Make Capitalism Workable Has Been Taken Away Resulting in Economic Crisis that Only Debt Forgiveness Can Mitigate and Debt Forgivness and Nationalization Are the Answers to the Economic Crisis
Michael Hudson and Paul Craig Roberts: A Brady Bond Solution for America’s Economic Crisis and Unpayable Corporate Debt
Many have rejected debt jubilees and debt forgiveness because it is "unfair" to those (usually including themselves) who kept themselves out of debt. Bragging about having shown personal responsibility within a system that doesn't care about you while showing no solidarity with others who failed those traps? It is almost like the Boomer boast of how they are self-made people and that younger generations should be more like them. It's as if your obeying the rules of the system somehow give you merit -- sure it's framed in the language of responsibility, justice, and so on, but who is defining these terms and with what laws? The laws of the oligarchs. If some somehow prevail and stay debt free, while the weak are exploited, should they look down on those who are exploited? Have they walked in their shoes? Do they know their personal circumstances? Some of those with debt may be irresponsible flakes but are all of them like that? What have you done to encourage personal responsibility for them? If you say that you have no connection to these people, and that you have no responsibility for them, then they are the responsibility of others, and the state. What is it to you if the state decides to undertake certain measures to protect them? You couldn't do so, or you weren't willing to do so.
If you don't like what the system is doing, then work to change it, but show some consideration to those vulnerable to exploitation by the oligarchs and guide them, when possible.

Advance Squad Leader
Thinking of introducing the game to some youths in order to get them interested in something more "realistic"; is the scale of the game large enough for 3GW to be implemented? Does the game simulate combat and combat leadership skills sufficiently? Or at least better than a video game would?

Failing to See the Signs of the Times
One Lutheran pastor: Civil war served cold by Russell E. Saltzman
The financial shenanigans of the 1%? The populist reaction to identity politics? The war being waged by cultural Marxists and SJWs? The collusion of the deep state with the reigning duopoly against Donald Trump? He sees none of this?
Meanwhile, T. Beale talks about white nationalism and reiterates his prediction about the break-up of the US.
