A Recipe for Big Government: “Food Insecurity”
From StosselTV
The government tells us 33 million Americans suffer from food insecurity! Really? 33 million Americans are hungry?
“That’s just not true,” says Rachel Sheffield, a researcher at The Heritage Foundation. “’Food insecure’ adults are more likely to be consuming too many calories rather than too few,”.
The government always tries to create a crisis. “Government programs tend to want to keep themselves going,” says Sheffield. But their handouts harm the very people they are meant to help.
“We’ve spent more on the war on poverty than all the military wars combined in the United States without any success.” The result? Increased dependency on government!
Expanding the welfare system seems to be the government’s main goal. The food insecurity myth and others, like “food desserts,” are debunked in this video.

The White Pill: Big Government Can Be Defeated (Just Ask the Soviet Union)
From StosselTV
People have been “black pilled” to think the world is doomed. Michael Malice says there’s hope.
In his book, “The White Pill,” he argues that tyrannical regimes, like the Soviet Union, can be toppled.
Today, media and universities distort history, and push socialism. It used to be worse. The New York Times once covered up Stalin’s famine, even as millions starved. Why? Malice says it’s because NYT star reporter Walter Duranty liked communism’s utopian promises, and status he got from his exclusive Stalin interviews.
Malice says the fall of the Soviet Union should give us hope that America can resist the universities and media’s brainwashing – or any tyranny that someone is “black pilled” about.
Our video explains Malice’s “white pill” and why you might want to take it.

Green Energy Needs Minerals, Yet America Blocks New Mines
From StosselTV
We’re told we need more minerals for EVERYTHING, especially “green” energy. But America regulators and environmental groups keep KILLING new mines!
“Why in the world would you put billions of dollars at risk to get a permit? Knowing they’ll just cancel a permit!” Physicist Mark Mills writes about the absurd regulations in the mining industry, “You’re going to be waiting, not months, not years, but the record shows decades.” America used to lead the world in producing minerals. Now we rank next to last in the time it takes to develop mines. How did this happen? Because rich environmental groups hate mines. They run deceitful ads and even collude with government to block mines. The video above explains some of the many reasons why this is a BIG problem.
