How do you explain Duty to Retreat laws then?

The Eurozone Falls into Recession as "Stimulus" Fails
It's all in spite of enormous social spending, more than two trillion euros of stimulus, and the increase in population. Resorting to the old “it could have been worse” argument makes no sense.

It's eating itself
That definitely sounds more involved than we want to get. I've always liked the idea of decentralized power generation and the recent energy price spikes got me really thinking about it.
Also, one of our concerns was sketchy installation companies and that sounds like it was an absolute nightmare for you.
We've been considering getting solar panels. We very rarely have to deal with power outages, but I'd be curious if solar's been worthwhile for you aside from that.
Batteries have been a major bottleneck for quite a while. I do think wind and solar are fundamentally different in this dimension though. Peak solar times at least correspond to periods of higher electricity demand, both from it being during the day when people are active and from AC usage.
On the newest episode of Fueling a Freer Future, we take on the wishful thinking of environmental activists who suggest that the only thing stopping a global green energy revolution is a lack of political will.
In our previous video, we looked at the qualities that make traditional energy sources such a powerful and positive force to advance society. In this episode, we discuss the two most promoted forms of “alternative energy,” solar and wind.
Are solar and wind as “green” as their advocates make them out to be? How much is their current affordability a result of market demand rather than state subsidy? Can solar and wind truly replace oil, coal, and gas? In this episode, we consider these questions and more.
It is time to consider the seriousness of the energy debate in this country beyond the hysterics we get from climate alarmists and their political representatives in Congress. Fueling a Freer Future is here to do just that. Catch up on the series here:

The Global Financial System Is Cracking, Here's Why | Preston Pysh
"Now the global financial system seems to be barely hanging on by a thread. It's the Fed bailout, it's the debt ceiling, the Treasury's bankrupt, the UK pensions, the rise of the BRICS nations and as crazy as all this sounds. There's a big, logical answer. That's the topic of today's conversation I'm having with Preston Pysh, he's the host of the wildly successful podcast title 'The Investors podcast'. In this interview, we discuss the global financial system, what's cracking apart and where and why it's happening."
Very excited to share my first publication from the Mises Institute!

Congratulations!
Heading home. Glad I got to stay for the beginning of the #zapathon today,
#zapathon seems to be working. My #zaps are already really slow.

Is The Federal Reserve Already Done Raising Rates?
Ryan and Robert Aro take a look at the Fed's unconvincing explanation of why it has chickened out on interest rate hikes. This only makes sense if the economy is much weaker than the Fed claims.

We're still having cool enough nights that I can open the windows and let the house cool down a bit. It's pretty great.
The #1 Thing that STOPS Your Weight Loss: Not Sugar or Carbs
Let’s talk about why you can’t lose belly fat. If you’re exercising, doing keto and intermittent fasting, and you still can’t get rid of belly fat—this may be why.
One of the top things that will stop you from losing belly fat is alcohol consumption.
You may have heard of keto-friendly wine or that pure alcohol is keto-friendly. Pure alcohol is not a carb or sugar and doesn’t directly increase your blood sugar or insulin. However, indirectly, it can create severe insulin resistance.
Liver cells treat alcohol like poison and try to get rid of it. The toxicity of the alcohol injures the liver cells and can even kill them. During this process, you develop fat in the liver cells, which can lead to a fatty liver.
With a fatty liver, you can also experience inflammation and scarring in the liver. Chronic inflammation and scarring can then cause cirrhosis and increase your risk of liver cancer and other liver problems.
Alcohol also blocks your ability to burn fat. Don’t expect to burn fat for 48 to 72 hours after alcohol consumption. It’s a source of empty calories and depletes important nutrients.
You’ve probably heard that there are certain benefits of drinking alcohol in moderation. But, recently, they’ve found that was only a marketing tactic, and there are no benefits to drinking alcohol.
Alcohol also has negative effects on other parts of the body, including:
• The brain
• The endocrine system
• The gut microbiome
• The heart
• Estrogen production in men (increases estrogen and decreases testosterone)
It’s crucial to realize the negative effects of alcohol and consider the real reasons you’re drinking alcohol, like stress. Many natural things can help you reduce stress. If you can’t give up alcohol, try diluting it with sparkling water.
If you take milk thistle before drinking, it can help protect the liver against poison and can help support the liver. Kombucha tea with low amounts of sugar is also a great alternative to alcohol and gives you a nice, relaxed feeling.

The Sinister Reason Companies Are Going Woke (It’s Not What You Think!)
When Bud Light made headlines for turning against their primary customer base costing them billions in Market valuation and plummeting sales many people thought it was a huge mistake!... a blunder. People assumed some lower level marketing team made some mistake but then other companies started following suit. Target went hard for the kids, then North Face, now Chick-fil-A. So what is going on?
In this video I'm going to explain what's really behind these companies. You would be surprised it's not about the money, they don't care if they lose money, so your boycotts don't really work. We're going to look at who is pushing them, how they control the corporations and of course how we can turn the tide and stop being a victim. Time to go build the world that we want.
