Sid J.A. Hubbard: Works, Publications, Products, and The Column

America's Promise

Wed, 23 Sep 2026 00:00:00 -0700

Money, power, and the world that keeps the account. The companion column to Currency.

Causality and Attraction, 2026/2027, Volume I: Rare Earth

Wed, 23 Sep 2026 00:00:00 -0700

Published. Rare Earth follows Bayan Obo, Xu Guangxian's separation science, and California's Mountain Pass into the industrial enclosure that makes rare-earth materials available. It asks whether production requires a toxic lake, whether rare earths can support a primary mine, and what a new source contributes to ecology and national security. The inquiry ends with the whole route from ore to a qualified defense component.

Causality and Attraction, 2026/2027, Volume II: Currency

Wed, 23 Sep 2026 00:00:00 -0700

Published. Currency follows money through the material world that gives an account its meaning: resources, exchange, credit, obligation, and the capacity to honor a claim. It examines how monetary records remain connected to the people, institutions, and productive systems they describe, with explicit calculations of obligations, discharge, and payment routes.

Approval Is Not Exposure: The COVID-19 Category Error

Sid J.A. Hubbard — Tue, 28 Jul 2026 19:03:54 -0700

A medical-policy case study distinguishing indication-specific regulatory approval from accumulated human exposure. It uses the COVID-19 treatment search and postauthorization safety evidence to show why these evidentiary categories cannot substitute for one another.

The analysis is a product of Nested Causal Modelling but presents its findings in ordinary regulatory and evidentiary language. It does not make treatment recommendations or determine vaccine effectiveness or net benefit.
