Personal Sovereignty leads to Exceptionalism
It’s not the flag, it’s what it represents. It’s not the national anthem, it’s what it represents. It’s not the country, it’s what it represents. It’s not you, it’s what you represent. Arrogance is nothing else than proudness of one’s insufficiencies. An arrogant individual is one who clings to things that do not exist or that ceased to exist.

La violencia como señal de rebelión social
Mitologizando y romantizando actos de violencia contra opositores políticos o ideológicos, algo que a menudo hacen los medios de comunicación y expertos, ayuda a las multitudes a asumir identidades colectivas que, aunque son populares, no son virtuosas, pero que cumplen su propósito de “justificar” la comisión de actos atroces. Un ejemplo de ello es Antifa en los Estados Unidos, pero los movimientos sociales se usan más efectivamente como herramientas ...Read full article...

Pasivos no financiados –pensiones y seguro social- son una amenaza más grave que el cambio climático

Get to know your children’s brains so you can educate them better
Knowing a child’s brain is imperative for parents to educate them properly. The brain is the control tower of our body. It is responsible for receiving information through the five senses -sometimes six-, carrying out processes consciously or unconsciously, performing according to the results of those processes and, subsequently, issuing a behavior, which may be conscious or more unconscious. Everything that happens in the body goes through the brain, ...Read full article...

Meet the wealthy, famous polluters
The wealthiest people on the planet earn more and pollute more. Isn’t it tempting to believe millionaires when they tell you they, more than anyone else, care about the environment? Isn’t impossible to not believe their claims about saving the planet when they donate so much money to ‘favour the poor’? In practice, all of that sounds noble, but when posing a magnifying glass over these and other claims, ...Read full article...
