📘 Silicon, by Federico Faggin — memoir of the microprocessor inventor, blending tech innovation with deep reflections on consciousness.
Quote: “We can build a robot that detects the molecules of a rose and identifies it—but it would have no feeling of the smell, no awareness, because a machine has no consciousness.”
📕 The Kybalion — timeless Hermetic philosophy on mentalism, analogy & polarity as keys to reality.
Quote: “Mind (as well as metals and elements) may be transmuted, from state to state; degree to degree; condition to condition; pole to pole; vibration to vibration.”

📗 Anatomy of the State, by Murray N. Rothbard — a sharp critique showing how the state thrives on coercion & propaganda.
Quote: "Just as the two basic and mutually exclusive interrelations between men are peaceful cooperation or coercive exploitation, production or predation, so the history of mankind, particularly its economic history, may be considered as a contest between these two principles. On the one hand, there is creative productivity, peaceful exchange and cooperation; on the other, coercive dictation and predation over those social relations.
If the seventeenth through the nineteenth centuries were, in many countries of the West, times of accelerating social power, and a corollary increase in freedom, peace, and material welfare, the twentieth century, has been primarily an age in which State power has been catching up—with a consequent reversion to slavery, war, and destruction."

Why isn't this teached in class ????
Why are so few capable of seeing what fiat does/causes ?
