Propaganda Art Show (July 2009)

I am going to try to offer these occasionally. I think they are interesting. I hope you do too! This is all US government propaganda. Next time I will find some other state's.

Fresh produce 6.25.09

Mish has a fantastic post today using Dr. Seuss to explain economic realities.

1. Thidwick the Big-Hearted Moose, an illustrated tale.

2. While the Fed is getting more power, no one is forcing them to face the consequences of a recent cover up.

3. Spezify is a very interesting new search engine. Compare it to Wolfram Alpha and Bing. Or the classic.

4. Legislators in Cali want to pay for their debts in IOU's. My question is, who in their right mind would lend them money?

Fresh produce from the link farm

Today's produce has an artistic flair: choir, acting, drawing, and literature. They are plays on the theme of "totalitarianism" and control, a topic which has always fascinated me.

1. We're gonna spread happiness and freedom, we're gonna change it, we're gonna rearrange it, we're gonna change the world. Yes we can! (Other leaders have cheering squads to greater and lesser degrees obviously, but I couldn't find anything for other US presidents. If anyone does please send me a link.)

2. Fred Thompson absolutely kills it here breaking down exactly why spending more money will get us out of debt. He summarily ends the debate between Austrians and Keynesians. Hilarious.

3. A satirical look at the "Glorious Revolution of 1917", using the medium of cartoon.

4. A powerful short story about individuality, by Kurt Vonnegut.

PS - here's a fruit bat. So cool.
