  • The Philosophical Definition of the Free Market
    Summary:
    If we take a look at a dictionary or text book definition of the term, “the free market,” or “the free market enterprise,” or the like, we notice that the definition just uses synonyms making the explanation tautological. The Philosophical Angle comes to the rescue with a new Philosophical Definition & Essence of the Free Market. TPA explains that the new definition is compose of 1 Dictum + 4 Corollaries.

  • Concept: What is An Ally; App: Russia
    Summary:
    How can we know who is an ally? An alły is one with whom there is peace: that is life without conflict. An Ally is one that is not only without conflict but one who is pro-actively cooperative. And what is cooperation? Cooperation is the knowledge that if the life entity combines its effort with others that have the same priority an efficiency of production will occur. Plus the consummation of this cooperative knowledge into a reward of achieving the manufacturing or producing a good or service is cooperation. And so to be an Ally is to seek cooperation with others. We seek cooperation in order to produce goods and services because good and services bring us up away from misery.

  • Mercantilism v Free Trade & Trump Tariff Policy
    Summary:
    In the news of late, there has been a lot of discussion about free trade agreements. The Trump administration feels that when one country has high import tariffs to dampen the export of U.S. goods and services from this country to another country while the other country enjoys low tariffs on their exports to the United States, then the administration feels this is unfair. But, that brings up the question: is mercantilism good? Is free trade better? I think so, … but specifically why? TPA explains!

  • Positive Knowledge v Anti-Knowledge: Why the Left Cannot Answer Questions
    Summary:
    TPA likes to watch talk shows as much as anybody. And I’ve noticed one particular point when they interview a democratic liberal on a show: they (the libs) can’t answer a question directly … ever! Why is this? Because they cannot answer positive-knowledge rules-based questions. TPA explains!

  • Left’s Proclivity to Sexual Harassment: e.g. NY AG
    Summary:
    There has been a lot of talk lately in the media about sexual harassment by men against women. And there’s even been a new term heard recently called toxic masculinity! But the most recent sexual harassment case against a high-profile male figure was against the New York AG. The question arises about the preponderance of these accusations have been toward people leaning toward the progressive left of the Democratic Party. Why is that?

  • Russian Collusion & Schizophrenia
    Summary:
    We have on every major channel on both TV and radio, the Russian collusion story between the Trump campaign and Russia. It’s amazing! Then, I’m speaking with a friend of mine, who is a Democrat, and he’s telling us that there’s no doubt in his mind that Trump and his candidacy and campaign colluded with the Russians to steal the election. And what impressed me was his sincerity and belief that this investigation will come to fruition and there’s no doubt in his mind that there was collusion and it will be exposed. I was shocked! I think the Democrats have contracted schizophrenia. TPA explains!

  • The Left’s Societal Destruction
    Summary:
    Rush Limbaugh made the statement on his show that the left destroys everything that comes into contact with it. So, how do we know that the left does destroy everything of society, as Rush indicated? TPA starts by outlining how individuals, or individual life entities, proceed with their daily lives; and once we know how the individual life entity operates, we can sum up the results of how it operates to get a good indication about how the society is going.
