    Palliative Parasites: A Field Guide to the Top of the Grifting Food Chain 
    For decades, a vast middle layer of professional symptom-managers — NGOs, bureaucrats, consultants, academics, and nonprofit lifers — has turned human misery into one of the most reliable, risk-free grifts in history. They have turned empathy into an asset class and compassion into a line item in a grant proposal. 
    These Palliative Parasites (PPs) don't solve problems. They manage them. Perpetually. They speak fluent Scrabble Babble, trade in virtue signaling, and specialize in the Infinite In-Between - the zone where problems are never allowed to die and never actually get solved. 
    With one hand they demonize the top, with the other they bribe the bottom, and in between they skim their fat 90% cut — trillions of dollars in grants, donations, and taxpayer money that rarely reaches the sidewalk. From California's $24+ billion homelessness black hole to the Mississippi TANF diversion scandal, from the trans-in-women’s-sports circus to the trillion-dollar DEI industrial complex, this book names the players, follows the money with zero mercy, and exposes the brutal Failure Paradox, i.e., the more things fail, the more profitable the failure becomes for the people paid to “fix” it. 
    But this is not just another rant against the system. Stuart M. Williams offers a genuine cure. The Sovereign OS is the world's first human and community-centric socioeconomic operating system that turns Non-Performing Assets into Performing Assets. Sovereign OS has already delivered measurable results in Charleston, SC and Muncie, IN, and it has changed the lives of thousands of people. 
    It is time to flush out the choke points that have been hiding in plain sight for decades. This is where it begins.

    Written in 1916 against the backdrop of the First World War, Imperialism: The Highest Stage of Capitalism explains the flaws and power of capitalism, which inevitably lead to monopolies, imperialism and colonialism. Lenin develops Marx’s theories of political economy, which had been put forward 50 years earlier in Das Kapital. He goes on to argue that imperialism is the most advanced state of capitalism, characterised by the domination of monopolies on an international scale, with the export of capital leading to the big imperialist powers carving up the world.More than a century later, Imperialism remains highly relevant in understanding the historical background to the strategies of many of today’s major nations.

    The Second Treatise of Government is a political treatise written by English philosopher John Locke in 1689. It is considered one of the most important works on political philosophy, as it presents Locke's ideas on the natural rights of individuals and the proper role and limits of government in a society based on the consent of the governed. 
    In the Second Treatise, Locke argues that all individuals have natural rights to life, liberty, and property, which cannot be taken away by any authority, including the government. These rights are inherent and universal, and are not granted by any social contract or agreement. 
    Locke also argues that governments are formed by the consent of the governed, and are therefore obligated to protect the natural rights of their citizens. He asserts that the purpose of government is to promote the common good, and that governments that fail to do so may be overthrown by the people. 
    Moreover, Locke suggests that there are limits to the power of government, and that individuals have the right to resist or even overthrow a government that becomes tyrannical or violates their natural rights. 
    The Second Treatise of Government has had a significant impact on political theory and the development of democratic governance. It influenced the United States Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, as well as many other constitutions around the world.

    Has Vladimir Putin become the master of the game? Why and how did the Russian President decide to attack Ukraine? Did he seek to prevent Ukraine from associating with Europe? Does he seek to reconstitute the USSR? Did NATO promise not to expand east after 1990? Is the Nord Stream 2 project the sinews of war? Is Ukraine's neutrality the only solution? Has Russia ever lost or won the war?... Based on the files of the intelligence services and official reports, Jacques Baud thus reviews the events of the recent history of Russia, which led to the war with Ukraine; it analyzes the various disputes between the West and Russia, and sheds light on the role that Putin plays today on the international scene. Colonial Jacques Baud is a former member of the Swiss Strategic Intelligence, a specialist in Eastern Europe and former head of Doctrine of the United Nations Peace Operations. Within NATO, he was involved in programs in Ukraine, including after the Maidan Revolution of 2014 and 2017. He is the author of several books on intelligence, war and terrorism, including Putin, Game master?, Governing by Fake News and The Navalny Affair, all published by Max Milo.
