The Libertarian Opposition is Rising…
By Sean Dempsey, 07/20/25 Let no one say the following is allegory or invention. It is, I assure the reader, entirely true, having been performed not upon the floor of Parliament nor the pages of moralist tracts, but in a respectable laboratory, by a respectable scientist, using respectable mice. In the Year of our Lord […]
T. S. Eliot’s The Hollow Men and Sean Dempsey’s America, 2023 both confront the spiritual and moral decay of civilization, but they do so from opposite emotional poles.

They say he once was something more,A banner, or a flame;But all he kept were ragged threadsAnd shoulders bowed with shame. He waited where the garden ends,Where […]
By Sean Dempsey, 04/15/25 The silver mining sector stands at the threshold of a potentially historic rally, driven by a rare confluence of macroeconomic imbalances, collapsing input costs, and structural mispricing.

Far from safeguarding prosperity, they distort markets, inflate prices, and erode purchasing power, as some […]
By Sean Dempsey, 04/03/25 In hindsight, 2024 will likely be chronicled in history books as the year when the postmodern fever broke—an era marked by an unchecked commitment to relativism, the absurd elevation of subjectivity, and an almost religious rejection of objective truth. Beauty was no longer allowed to exist on its own terms; instead, […]
