Chicago Capitalism Champion Jonathan Hoenig
Interview with American author, investor and @FoxBusiness contributor @JonathanHoenig by @ScottHolleran.
***
American author, investor and Fox Business contributor Jonathan Hoenig created Capitalist Pig Asset Management. The former trader at the Chicago Board of Trade and Fox News commentator predicates his support for laissez-faire capitalism on his philosophy, Objectivism. Hoenig briefly attended Northwestern University.
I first met Jonathan, with whom I’d been acquainted through mutual interest in Ayn Rand’s philosophy, in Chicago’s Greektown in 2015. We discussed media, Chicago and potential projects and he later contracted me for various editorial work. I attended his lecture on Chicago’s futures exchanges at an Objectivist Conference on Chicago’s Magnificent Mile.
We’ve since become friends. After my Classic Chicago Magazine interview last year with Atlas Shrugged admirer Terry Savage, I decided to ask Jonathan to discuss his ideas, career and passion for Chicago, the first city where Ayn Rand lived when she escaped to America. We conducted this recent interview by telephone.

@Keir_Starmer If someone else was in power instead of Starmer to set a different UK police policy there is a chance Mr. Nowak would still be alive today.
Food for thought.
“…socialist opposition to capitalism should be portrayed as exactly what it is–a movement to return the world to the Dark Ages and a system of feudal privilege.” — @GGReisman in his Capitalism
Read the full article. Then read his *Capitalism*. Then read it again.
"I CAN'T BREATHE": WHITE INDIVIDUALS NEED NOT APPLY
The Death of Henry Nowak in the UK replicates that of the "White George Floyd" in the US, whose name is never mentioned.
"THE PRIVATIZATION OF PROPERTY is the most fundamental aspect of a PROCAPITALIST POLITICAL PROGRAM. In addition, its discussion is well suited to illustrate strategy and tactics applicable to the pursuit of all aspects of a procapitalist political program.
Privatization would ultimately require the sale of all government-owned lands and natural resources (with such limited exceptions as the sites of military bases, police stations, and courthouses), which presently include the greater part of the territory of many of the Western states and almost all of the territory of Alaska. It would entail the sale of TVA and all other public-power facilities, the sale of Amtrak and Conrail, the post office, the public schools, universities, and hospitals, the national parks, and the public highway system. It would also entail the establishment of the airwaves as private property and of private property rights under the sea and in outer space.
Those of us who work to establish capitalism must always be aware that the privatization of all of these things is part of our ultimate goal and we must be sure that all new adherents we gain fully understand and support the whole program of privatization, as well as all the other essential aspects of our program. No secret must ever be made of the full, long-range program and its goal of complete LAISSEZ-FAIRE CAPITALISM." — @GGReisman#capitalism
NYC MAYOR MAMDANI DISCOVERS THE BANKRUPTCY OF RENT CONTROL
"@NYCMayor@ZohranKMamdani is already retreating from the logic of his own campaign promise.
He ran on a sweeping four-year rent freeze. Now, faced with reality, he is offering exemptions. His administration is reportedly preparing relief for owners of roughly 300,000 regulated apartments, including case-by-case one-time rent increases on vacant units, easier financing, tax exemptions, help with code violations, and even a city-backed scheme to reduce landlords’ insurance costs.
In other words, the rent freeze has not even fully arrived, yet City Hall is already designing escape hatches from it.
Of course it is.
This is the pattern of rent control everywhere: impose controls, watch the housing stock deteriorate, then carve out exemptions when the damage becomes too obvious to ignore. Freeze rents. Destroy incentives. Starve buildings of maintenance. Then create a new bureaucratic patch to deal with the consequences of the last bureaucratic patch.
New York has been living under some form of rent regulation since 1943. For more than eight decades, instead of allowing rents to be set by supply and demand, the city has tried to have politicians and boards decide the prices landlords could charge.
The result has not been affordable abundance. It has been chronic scarcity." — @rayniles
"What I’ve generally seen is that most people’s problem isn’t that they have a bad stock, even if they invest at the wrong time—it’s that they spend more than they make, and they don’t make saving a priority—they don’t make investing a priority." — JONATHAN HOENIG
@laralogan Patel said these agents "arrived after the riot had begun (not during or prior to Trump’s Ellipse speech or the initial protest), many were unhappy with the assignment, and he credited whistleblower agents for helping uncover details."
274 FBI agents were thrown into crowd control on Jan 6 against FBI standards.
That failure was on corrupt leadership.
Thanks to agents stepping up, the truth is coming out.
Transparency. Justice. Accountability.
This account of the government's manipulation of evidence to bring false charges in a January 6 case is worth a read.

Thousands of innocent, non-violent j6ers were punished and lumped with those who were violent.

This article — passed around in the White House — tells the story of one innocent J6er.
Justice for J6ers.
