Cui Bono?
October 24, 2018
Writes Butler Shaffer:
I was thinking yesterday, what sort of catastrophe or other tragic event might the Established Order dream up to affect the upcoming election? And then I awoke to this morning’s news: pipe-bombs – none of which apparently went off – sent to all the anti-Trump people! The ancient Romans – along with Rothbard – would have figured out which question to ask: “cui bono”, who would have benefitted from such an act? Boobus Americanus is so hopelessly innocent when it comes to understanding the duplicitous nature of all political behavior. “Provocateuring” is not even in the vocabulary.
