Universidade americanas
American universities are not institutions of learning -- in fact, they're no longer even institutions of leftist indoctrination; rather, they are institutions devoted to the abject destruction of rationality. That is, they exist to destroy reason, logic, and rationality.
Dinheiro
Tanto Hüllsmann quanto Mises (apesar das diferenças pontuais) previram que ao ser compulsoriamente substituída por moedas fictícias, sem lastro, inflacionárias e baseadas em um sistema de fraude contábil, os meios pelos quais, espontaneamente, através de um amplo processo de seleção natural, o mercado elegeu o ouro e a prata como reservas de valor e meio de troca perfeitos, com capacidade de ser unidades de medida precisas, ainda assim seriam moedas naturais e cobiçadas tanto ...

Mussolini
"First, there’s the irony that Mussolini was in favor of a minimum wage. The Fasci Italiani di Combattimento founded by Mussolini called for a minimum wage and he boasted of his support for it in his autobiography.

Fifth, the 1930s saw new deals in America, Germany, and Italy alike. This contention is far, far, more controversial in 2019 than it was in the 1930s. If you’re interested in this topic, I suggest you read Wolfgang Schivelbusch’s Three New Deals. Or you could read my first book.

Rexford Guy Tugwell, a prominent member of FDR’s Brain Trust, said of Italian Fascism, “It’s the cleanest, neatest most efficiently operating piece of social machinery I’ve ever seen. It makes me envious.” “We are trying out the economics of Fascism without having suffered all its social or political ravages,” proclaimed the New Republic’s editor George Soule, an enthusiastic supporter of the FDR administration."
Dormir
"It is a well-known fact that sleep is crucial to our wellbeing both physically and psychologically. However, new research is uncovering that it may be more important than ever."
