endlessly
repeating his economic-nationalism mantra, often using the exact same
words over and over again


The ugly truth - and the reason I, and most American Jews - despise
Chuck Harder, is that Chuck's brand of economic nationalism is taken
straight out of "Mein Kampf."


If that's true, then American Jews are just about the only people paying any
attention to Chuck Harder anymore!


I've read this tome, and when it doesn't talk about the world Jewish
conspiracy, it lays the foundation for what we would call "economic
nationalism" today: industrial policy, protectionism, keeping out
foreign goods, equity stripping, and so on.


I've never read the book. I do know that Nazi Germany was hardly a worker's
paradise. Most of the industry was monopolized and unions were banned.
Germans were putting in alot more hours on the job than other depression era
workers, almost as many hours as slaves.

I do know that Chuck Harder had alot of confidence in central planning, as
long as that central planning was done by the right people or good people or
smart people or people who are right. I didn't make a connection between
Chuck and Nazi economics. I figured he just had a far more common mushy
headed faith in planning by the right people.

No one I can think of touts this type of political platform like Chuck
Harder does.


It depends how far you stretch the comparison. Lyndon LaRouche doesn't seem
all that different.

No surprise there, since the "buzz" amongst American Jews
is that Chuck's father was a member of the Chicago National Socialist
Party.


Frank Collin's father was a Holocaust survivor! Maybe Chicago Nazis are
even stranger than most.

So, does this mean that Chuck Harder is a Nazi sympathizer? You be the
judge!


I think Chuck Harder's show is a reflection of Chuck Harder. A little
confused and out of focus. I don't think Chuck bothers much with reflecting
on human nature, and doubt he's ever noticed that power goes, not to the
good, but to the strong.
