IPA Review features “Soviet Cybernetics” A Daniel Wild review of “How Not to Network a Nation: The Uneasy History of the Soviet Internet” by Benjamin Peters. The former Soviet Union attempted to install a computer network to overcome her planning problems. The network was of the type that Turnbull might have headed, without effecting change. It wasn’t technically feasible back in the day, but became so towards the end. But the network couldn’t be implemented from above in the effective way the West has implemented one through free commerce. When the West has diverged from the classic model, it has failed, like with NBN today, where a housing estate in central Melbourne’s Dandenong requires satellite to access the internet, or a special deal with Telstra for copper wire. The housing estate is about ten years old, and so will be the last place wired up.
The Soviets had planning tsars who felt threatened by a communications device which might supplant their expertise, and they opposed the monolith. Australia has much to learn from that as they build a monolith through central government. Commercial carriers can do it better in urban landscapes. But the outback needs the infrastructure and Government should provide it there.
One person who knows how to profit from central planning is Hillary Clinton. The Chicago Tribune is withdrawing support from her, and suggesting that Democrats replace Hillary. But corrupt news, like the Tribune, knew everything now known about Hillary as they supported her a day ago. Maybe they are only backing a tribe, but not a policy? And Maybe they want to find another crook.
Donald Trump's speech at Gettysburg is frightening media. They have supported and protected insider corruption for a long time. Trump will clean up the festering wound, and make America great again.
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell rock
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle...

It is good, but here is my response
I've finished the first book for Bread of Life compilation for populist podcasters VivaFrei, AUS, The Duran and Bongino.
In the first volume, with quotes from months Jan to Apr, I write about how Australia came to be up to Federation.
In the 2nd volume I write about Australia from Federation to Menzies (Ming the Merciless)
In the third edition I write about Australia post Menzies.

I've pubished it in Hardcover too. Limited publishing because it is a non standard size to accommodate the amount of text.
