Tough Luck, kids. You’reScrewed

I’, going  to tell you a dirty little secret that the US government doesn’t want you to know. Of course if you’ve ben to the grocery store lately you know something is not right. How long has it been since you could afford a steak?  It’s not just food, everything costs more. Why is that?

The government tells us the “inflation rate” is 5% which is bad enough. BUT in computing the inflation  ra the government doesn’t include some minor things like  – wait  for it- the cost of food, energy, cars, and homes. And home prices are soaring. So the real inflation r ate is about 20%. What does 20% inflation mean to you? It’s simple 4^th grade mat, folks. It means your dollar is NOT worth 100 cents. It is only worth 80 cents. So it takes more dollars to buy anything. And you intuitively know that if you buy food for your family.

But there is an even more insidious and tragic consequence to the fiscal irresponsibility of Democrats AND Republicans who are supposed to be working for us. Our nation is already in debt by 28 TRILLION dollars. Keep in mind, without spending another penny your government adds a TRILLION DOLLARS to that debt. every year with their ‘normal” budget. And that is EVERY year on into the future. Where does the debt  go from here? 40 trillion? 50 trillion? We can’t even  pay the INTEREST on the 28 trillion  now. America is bankrupt. And yet the politicians want to raise the limit on their “debt credit  cared.” This is insanity.

Please understand. This NOT “paper” debt. This is real debt just like the debt on your car, your house, your credit cards. This debt NYST BE  BE PAID to those who “loaned”: this money to us, the bond holders around the world.

Your taxes are going up. But no amount of taxation willl pay off this gigantic debt. So even if we used ALL of our Gross Domestic Product (that’s all the money created by business and industry) as payment on this debt  it would take upwards of a HUNDRED YEARS to pay off this massive debt .If you’re under age 35 you can forget retiring at 65 with Social Security. You’re not going to ever retire, and you and your  children and your grand grandchildren and their children will be paying off this debt.

Our government spending is out of control. What do you get for all the taxes you already pay, other than funding the military? The answer is nothing  unless you are on welfare, free housing, food stamps and free health care. You do we understand, don’t you?  –  NOTHING  is FREE. You pay  for everything the government gives away. I wish I had better news for you young people but because of profligate politicians you are not going to own a home, a new car, a vacation, and no college for your kids. YOU are on the hook to pay off 30 (or more)TRILLION dollars of US debt.

If the Heart is beating – It is Alive.

For years I had no right to an opinion on abortion, because I am a man and I can’t have a baby. And I still believe that but now with a caveat. I DO have an opinion on murder. It’s wrong. It’s immoral, it’s unlawful. And that is why the Texas “heartbeat” law is spot on. Women would never consider killing a puppy or a kitten with a heartbeat so why is right for them to kill a fetus which has a heartbeat?

In Texas, the ‘Heartbeat” statue has been codified. They were having 150 abortions a DAY. That is 55,000 abortions a year and, that is the equivalent to the population of a moderate size city. Using abortion as a form of Birth Control is barbaric. Birth control pills have been around for FIFTY years. Condoms have been around since the beginning of time. And there is even the Morning After pill if you “forget” everything else.

Let me get personal. Years ago my wife and I wanted to adopt a baby. It took us FOUR years of waiting to finally get a 4 month old girl. So it is not that there is no demand for babies. Hundreds, maybe thousands, of couples are waiting patiently to adopt a child. Every abortion makes it more difficult for responsible people to give a good home to a deserving baby.

I think that because the word abortion has become so common, it has become abstract. It doesn’t mean anything to people. BUT when you give that fetus a heartbeat, it makes them a person. And if you kill the heartbeat, you are a murderer. The Texas statute is simple. It places the onus on a doctor and his assistants to deny abortion if a heartbeat is detected in a fetus after six weeks of pregnancy. Is six weeks enough? Maybe the similar Mississippi law which does virtually the same thing but after thirteen weeks of pregnancy is better. The time limit is not for us to decide.

And the simplicity of the Texas Heartbeat Law is what makes it so appropriate. Sure, a doctor can perform an abortion at any time. The Governor of Virginia even approves killing a live baby after birth, if the woman says she wants an “abortion.” The Texas law simply states that IF a doctor performs an abortion after six weeks or when a fetal heartbeat is detected, he or she and his or her assistants can be sued in a civil court. And there are provisions for rape or health consequences for the mother.

When conception takes place has been debated for decades The detectable heartbeat of a fetus simply proves that it is a living person. We have laws against killing living people. It’s high time we take another serious look at rampant abortions which are actually legal homicide. Texas is leading the way. More power to them.

The End of Sheepland

 Let me think. Okay. I’m a Communist with  a Muslim Islamist background.. I want to destroy  a country named “Sheepland.” What do I do? Well, first I get Sheepland’s biggest enemy (China) to help me rig an election to get the dumbest moron who won’t question my plan elected as the President of Sheepland. That’s easy because I have one of the two political parties who will help corrupt the election. After this dunce is President, I will open the southern border (the country to the North of Sheepland has closed its border) and I will invite illegal vagrants with all kinds of diseases to flood in with no vetting of any sort. This will drain Sheepland’s “Free” resources. There will also be Muslim terrorists in that group. The point is to dilute Sheepland culture, end their patriotism, and have a huge number of foreign inhabitants who disrespect Sheepland’s symbols of freedom (it’s flag and national anthem). Then I’ll agitate useful idiots to destroy statues of Sheepland’s heroes and founders. This is good because as Churchill said, “Anation that forgets it’s history, has no future.”

So far so good. Now, I will have the feckless President shut down the energy sources so Sheepland will have to go back to buying oil from Russia, Iran, and Saudi Arabia. This puts thousands of Sheepland’s workers out of jobs. Now to ruin the country’s financial stability I will get Sheepland’s Federal Reserve to print tons of unbacked money. This drives up inflation, destroys the economy, and makes Sheepland’s dollar, which has been the world’s standard currency, worthless. It will cause food and gas  shortages and prices to skyrocket. This makes  Sheepland’s population receptive to  any promise of a “better form of government” than the Republic it has been for 230 years.

I will get Sheepland’s self-serving politicians to pass bills to create incredibly massive debt, so that future generations will be serfs who will have to sacrifice everything to pay off this debt. Okay. We’re on our way. And I will send thousands of dollars to Sheepland’s citizens to keep them from taking jobs. Why should they work when Sheepland’s government gives them more money than they would make on a job? This will cause most small businesses to close their doors and go bankrupt.

I will have Sheepland’s biggest enemy along with the country’s big-tech Oligarchs to subsidize the media so that they will propagandize the people into thinking that all my moves to destroy Sheepland are really in the citizens’ best interest.  The media, in turn, will convince the population that they should accept mandates on health issues from unelected power-hungry bureaucrats.

Sheepland has been in a 20 year war in the Middle East. This is a fantastic opportunity for me to accomplish my goal of destroying Sheepland. I will pull our military out, close our only secure airbase, and turn the country over to a bunch of medieval savages called the Taliban. And I will leave thousands of Sheepland’s citizens behind in that country to be tortured, mutilated, and murdered. This will make Sheepland look weak and harmless and will enable its enemies to further destabilize the world. I will also import thousands of terrorists into Sheepland so they can pull off hundreds of terrorist acts in the country. This will bring suicide bombers to every city and town in Sheepland.

Now I will keep all this chaos going until there is nothing left of Sheepland, and it will become my Communist Sharia Law country. With a population of sheep, that was easy, wasn’t it?

 If you have read this plan so far I want you to do three things:. Substitute the name “America” for “Sheepland” and  call the Sheepland President Joe Biden and remember my name.

I am Barack  Hussein Obama.

What ? ME work?

Theremore than a million jobs available to Americans. Jobs they won’t take for two reasons. Our Socialist Regime is sending people who ordinarily would take these jobs MORE money NOT to work then they could make on their jobs. The Regime is also sending $250 a month to each child of these non-workers.

I have no fault with the recipients of this money. They’d be fools not to take FREE money. The problem is that NO money is free. Somebody, that would be us taxpayers, is footing this give-away. It is a good political move. If the Democrats are doling out money, why wouldn’t everyone getting it vote for them?

But there is no ill wind that doesn’t send some good. Immigrants (legal Americans from other countries) are taking advantage of everything this nation offers that their native Socialist country didn’t afford them. Personally, I have had three examples of this at my home. I had  a Russian immigrant install a new roof. . That was a $20,000 job. I also had some painting done by another Russian immigrant.

I had a large 6,000 dollar Anderson sliding glass door replaced in my basement. The job was done by a father and son team who are immigrants from Ukraine. They said that Anderson Windows had eight teams of Ukrainians like them who were doing the work that Americans used to do.

So Americans won’t work. Immigrants will and are glad to get the jobs. That doesn’t speak well for our country. With an estimated 2 million illegal aliens going to cross our southern border this year, what do you think that will do to the American job market?

Have you had enough of Communism from the Democrats? A national disaster in Afghanistan after countless American boys and girls lost their lives in a 20 year war. Those Patriots should have no shame brought on by Joe Biden and his Woke military geniuses leaving that country with no exit strategy. Those fighting boy s and girls gave the Afghans 20 years (a generation ) the taste of Freedom. Now that is all over. To further the national insult the Biden Democrats are going to IMPORT 60,000 or more Afghan citizens into Wisconsin and Texas. (Some of them may be secret terrorists. We have no vetting of them.) Of course, our so-called allies in the Middle East could easily take these refugees. But they will provide more Democrat votes for the elites who now rule our formerly free country.

I hate to leave you with more bad news, but someone has to tell you. It’s going to get much worse. Inflation is skyrocketing. Prices will go up, shortages of everything from bread to gas will increase, and your dollar is going to shrink to nothing of value. That’s what inflation does.

How were you doing now compared to a year ago? Elections have consequences. And ILLEGITIMATE elections have massive consequences. Good luck and goodbye to the America the Founders gave us.

A Tale of Three Roofers

What is it about Americans? Of course I can see why someone wouldn’t want to work when Joey Bag o’ Donuts is paying them more to stay at home then they the y were making at their jobs. That’s understandable. When I was employed if the Democrats gave me more of the taxpayer’s money to stay at home instead of going to work – I wouldn’t have stayed at home, I would have gotten a second job that paid me under the table.

But it’s more than that. There used to beat dignity about working. Pride in doing a job and doing it well. My father instill the hard work ethic in me early on. But it seems  to be gone. And I have a prime example.

We needed a new roof. We had a 30 year roof which only lasted 20 years (That should tell you something about the original roof job.)  So ours was leaking. We put out inquiries to three roofing companies. The first one, the “Roof Roof” guy you hear on tht audio all the time,  had a 1:30 appointment to come sell us a roof. He didn’t show up until 5:51 so I told him to take a hike. The second company said there was no need to come see us, they would just “fly a drone over our roof” and give us a price. So another one got the boot instead of the roof – job.

Then the third one was a company we had never heard of. It was Stone Mountain Roofers. How big could they be? They didn’t advertise on WSB all the time. But this extremely nice young man showed up on time. His name is Vlad. He spent about 35 or 40 minutes showing us the materials he would  use, the special flanges they had to keep rain from getting under the eaves. He told us when they would come,, how they didn’t just thwo the old shingle on the shrubbery, they have a machine that chops them up. And he would do it for what the insurance company would pay. He came back two or three times taking pix of our roof. We hired him.

They did exactly what Vlad  said. They covered all ourshrubs and our deck with tarps so no shingles would fall on therm. They stared at 6:30 AM and worked until dark. They came back a second day to finish up. Th e roof looks great (and doesn’t leak). His workmen (and women) were courteous and hard  workers. We were extremely satisfied and would recommend Stone Mountain Roofers to everyone

Now, her  is the clincher. Vlad and his brother came to the US twelve years ago from a former Soviet Communist country. They took advantage  of all the freedom  that Americans take for granted. They worked their asses off, because the harder they worked the more money they made. And Vlad is out every weekend soliciting more jobs. He never quits working.

Why is it that two American companies sluffed off this job? They had first shot at getting our business. But we had to wait for two immigrants who knew they could make it in, America. And they did. More power to them. And shame on Americans who are too lazy or too blasé’ to eve n go after an $20,000 dollar job. Maybe they were waiting for Joey Bag o’ Donuts to give them a handout of “free” money. It doesn’t speak well for America’s future.. Does it?

I’m Glad (and sad) that You Missed It.

I’m pleased  that most of you are still enjoying the hopes and dreams of youth. But, on the other hand, I regret that you will  never experience the unity, the sense of purpose, and the total devotion to ONE great cause that World War Two gave Americans.

I was eten years old when the Japanese sneak-attacked the US naval base at Pearl Harbor killing hundreds of American sailors.. Immediately we were at war. There was no debate about it. This entire nation proudly went to war. Whole high school graduating classes enlisted in the military. Housewives ditched their aprons, put on coveralls and a bandana, and went to work in war plants. My o sister, who was a schoolteacher, left the classroom and  took a job  in a plant producing bombs. In my 5^th grade class we formed a drum &bugle corps. (I played the bugle). We marched up and down roads  behind a flag-carrying honor guard, playing marching songs to cheer on the civilians who lined the r roadside.. At my home each day at sunset I played Taps on my bugle. When my older bother joined the Army Air Corps I joined the Civil Air Patrol, where we youngsters trained mochiko the Military Reserves today.

People bought War Bonds which coast $18.75 and paid back $25.00 whenever the war ended. Kids brought their quarters to school. Each quarter bought a “War Stamp” which we pasted in a booklet. When the booklet was full it was turned in for a War Bond. Hollywood stars made whistle stop tours promoting War Bonds. Clark Gable (Rhett Butler of Gone with the Wind) became an Army Air Corps gunnery instructor. Jimmy Stewart flew nearly 20 bombing missions over Germany piloting  a B-17 before the military forced  the famous movie star to quit. It would be too great a tragedy if Jimmy Stewart   died in the war. Hall of Fame Pitcher Warren Spahn and a dozen other sports stars gave up their mitts and glove s and joined the military.

Anyone could get in the movies by bringing an aluminum pot, of any size, and/or Mom’s container of bacon grease. Everything was rationed. We had little sugar, or meat and NO coffee. America learned to drink  Postum, which was made of some g roasted grain. It looked like coffee. It tasted like shit. Cigarettes were rationed. Smokers learned to “roll their own.” No tires for Dad’s car, and very few gallons of gas.  No new cars. Henry Ford converted his auto plants to making bombers. Using his assembly y methods the Willow Run  plant    would turn out a completed B-24 bomber every 20 minutes. Thos plants ran nonstop 24/7.

Few people voiced a complaint about all  the shortages. If they did, there was a universal and loud retort, “Don’t you know there’s a war on?” Every movie was a war movie where America won. . John Wayne fought the Japs on every studio back lot in Hollywood. The National Anthem was played at the beginning and end of every movie and the audience stood and cheered. Kids quit playing cowboys and Indians and began playing fight the Japs and Nazis. Santa brought toy guns made of wood because all the metal was devoted to the war effort.  People planted “Victory Gardens.”

For the only time in my long life this whole nation was totally devoted to only one effort. To defeat the Japanese and Germans. 400,000 American boys died in that effort. But they literally saved the world. My own brother died in that conflict. Blue star pennants hung in evry window indicating that family had someone in the military. Gold stares indicated that some loved one had died in service.

When I see America today so divided on such trivial issues, it makes me sad. Sad because you will never know what our  country can do when everyone in it is devote to a single effort. When everyone of all races and colors and creeds are focused on one job – the job of saving the world from dictators.. You will never know  that kind of unity. And that is what makes me sad.

Ready to Vote?

You want to vote? Okay, you’ll need a photo ID and also be fingerprinted. No out of country absentee ballots accept ed. And if you want an absentee ballot it requires two trips to the polling place. One to pick up your absentee ballot and one to take it back. Also no ballot boxes will EVER be left unattended, This is to keep either party from stuffing unattended ballot boxes.

Where do these “voter suppression” rules apply? Well, certainly not in the US where the Democrats don’t even want you to have to show and ID to vote. No. These rules apply in Mexico. And in Europe (we’re talking France, Germany, Italy, etc. 99% of the countries) all of them require a not just  a driver’s licenses, but  also  a government issued ID to cast a ballot. Some even require you to show a passport.

So why is  America the only country that is so lax in voter requirements? You tell me. We both know he answer. Obviously mass mailing of ballots is inviting massive fraud.. Unrequested absentee ballots are inviting illegal’s voting.. A friend of mine and his wife (two in the household) received FOUR absentee ballots and two of those were addressed to :Occupant.” He didn’t, but he could have voted four times. In the 3 November 2020 election.

There is only one political party fighting voter integrity laws which man y states are now working on. Why  is that? Why would anyone object to provable fair and honest elections? I hate to state the obvious but there is only ONE reason a political party would object to a citizen having to show an ID to vote. And that is to allow gigantic fraud. With no ID an illegal person can vote early and often .Which party is it that benefits most from voter fraud? No Republicans or Libertarians or Independents are vocal about obstructing these vital revisions in voter laws. Only the Democrats fight them. Why is that I wonder?

Joesph Staling said, “It’s not the people voting that counts, it’ the people counting the votes that  determines who wins and who loses.” Fighting voter  fraud isn’t just about keeping the process legal. Every illegal vote that is cast, makes legal votes not count. So legitimate voters are being disenfranchised. The Constitution plainly states tht only State Legislatures can make rules about elections. And yet in 2020, Governors, Secretaries of State, Judges and Democrat activists were blatantly violating the constitution. And my state, Georgia, was one of the worst  offenders with video s of massive violations of voting procedures. One thing is guaranteed: If states don’t clean up their voting procedures, no American will ever feel confident about their vote counting. And that means – they won’t vote.

California Nightmare

Just when you think California can’t do anything more stupid – they outdo themselves it something that is  even more stupid. San Francisco now has a law that makes shop lifting legal up to $950. (No, I’m not kidding. This is not fiction. You can’t make this stuff up.) Well, of course, this resulted in many, if not most, stores in downtown SF closing up and going to of business.

Here’s a quote from a San Fran paper, “In their “wisdom,” the City Council passed Prop 47, an ordinance that prevents police officers from arresting or even stopping anyone who steals less than $950 worth of goods. .Unsurprisingly, the new city law spurred the growth of organized gangs of thieves who gather together and run into a store as a group to grab everything they can carry knowing full well that neither the police, nor the store owners, can do a thing to stop them.”.

Well, any human being with a brain cold see where this would lead. Business s are not in businesses for fun. They are there to serve to public and to make a profit. If their stores are going to be cleaned out by thieves what is the purpose of their being in business? Now, stores such as Walgreens, CVS, and convenience store chains, are closing dozens of locations in the city because their product loss rate has climbed more than 100 percent.

Walgreens has closed 17 of its locations and CVS is not far behind. Convenience stores, where the profit margin is critically narrow have virtually closed all locations. All legitimate customers of the few remaining locations are avoiding entering the stores because of gangs roaming the aisles.

This idiot scheme of a law passed by Democrats hurts the poor who don’t have cars and the elderly the most. Before, persons without cars cold walk to their neighborhood drug store. But now that store has closed its doors and left town. And the elderly who depended on stores such as Walgreens and CVS for their vital prescriptions are out of luck. They have nowhere to go.

If we needed any more proof that Democrats care more for criminals then they do for ordinary law-abiding citizens this outrageous law should be the icing on the political cake.

Alice Was Right.

As Alice in Wonder d says, this is getting “curiouser and curiouser” It seems the media is just now discovering something that you and I knew over a year ago. They have now decided that the Corona virus “may” have come from Wuhan, China. Remember over a year ago that China closed down Wuhan,, not allowing its citizens to go to ANY other place in China -bu tthey did  allow them to fly to all other parts of the world? And suddenly without warning we  we had a virus that killed four million people worldwide (thousands in the US) running countries and  destroying businesses. You’d think that might have given the media a slight hint that the virus “:might” have come from China, don’t you think?

But it gets better (or worse). Now we know that the “bat lady” who engineered the deadly virus in cahoots with the Chinese military, turned up mysteriously dead. Funny how people in China who might turn out to be an embarrassment to the Communists just  suddenly die, isn’t it? Just a coincidence, I’m sure.

Another clue was that China came roaring back, building the world’s largest navy while the rest of the world was floundering trying to combat this pandemic. Dr. Fauci and the scarf queen were telling us the virus came from bat soup. But, aa always, Dr. Fauci was knowingly lying. He seems to be very good at that. Even more curious is that China’s economy came soaring back so quickly. They were back to normal in a month. How could that be, while the read of the world was locked down tight for a year?. Well, and this is just a wild guess on my part,, maybe it was because  they were not only waging biological warfare on the world, but they were ALSO developing a vaccine for that virus at the same time.

So let’s sum up some Corona virus s facts that the media has ignored or on/or tried to blame on  Donald Trump. Remember, he cut off all flights from China in January of 2019, which Dr. Fauci denounced as  totally unnecessary? CNN won’t tell you this, but I will. Here is what really happened. China develops a super-deadly virus along with a vaccine to counter act it. But they denied the virus came from Wuhan, and they kept their vaccine for this virus a closely guarded secret. Meanwhile, the US is reeling form this killer disease so Trump mobilize s “Warp Speed” which gave us  a vaccine in about nine months that would have taken five years normally. His action saved thousands of lives. He also used American industry to build millions of ventilators. Then  he  donated massive numbers of ventilators to other countries. He demonstrated once again America’s generosity to others and bhe saved countless f lives.

China quietly declared biological warfare  on the world and on the US in particular. And now the American pieces of excrement like Dr. Fauci and his lying virologist buddies are scrambling to cover up their cooperation in foisting this disease on everyone on earth. Through a front agency Fauci donated 600 Million dollars of your money to that Wuhan virus lab. People need to go to jail for this horrible crime starting with Fauci. China needs t o be forced , by the world, to pay for their crimes. The media in their insane hatred of Donald Trump aided the Chinese Communists by parroting their lies and they continue to aid the cover up by Ffuci and friends. . They need to g to jail, too. Meanwhile,  American patriots know what a heroic leader President Trump was throughout this China induced pandemic. And we won’t forget it.

Loaf of bread? $10.00 please.

How about a short  lesson in Economics 101? Have you noticed how the price of gas has skyrocketed? Benn to the grocery store lately? EVEERYTHING costs more, doesn’t it? Tried to buy some lumber lately? The cost of lumber (you know, 2x4s and stuff) is up 300% The reason everything costs more is: TAH DAH! Inflation. So what is inflation? At one time every dollar printed by the government had to have  a dollar’s worth of Gold in the vault. And there was no inflation. That ended long ago. Now the government just prints money as if it is for your Monopoly game, and that is about what it’s worth.

If the government prints more money, the price  of everything goes up? Why? Because more money is chasing after  the same product. Let’s say you want to buy a car for $1,000 (boy, don t ‘you wish!) But there if there is only one car, and lots of people want it, so the price of the car goes up because money is worth less.. So does the cast of a loaf of bread. For years the government told us inflation was only 4% but they were lying as usual . It was really about 12% and now it’s about 15% and going up and that means that your dollar is not worth 100 pennies, It’s only worth 85 cents. That’s inflation. So it will take more of your 85 cent dollars to buy anything.

Inflation hurts the poorest Americans the worst. Bill Gates (eve if he is going thru  a divorce) doesn’t care if gas coasts $5.00 a gallon. But to someone who is already working for minimum wage that extra cost makes their “take home” considerably less and they have to make some tragic choices.  Do I they buy gas, or do they  buy bread?

The Democrats answer to inflation is to give you a “stimulus” check. Of course they are just giving you your own tax money back because the government doesn’t produce anything (except crooked politicians). And because they re printing more money and  the country is growing the same amount of wheat, that stimulus just makes inflation grow higher and bread cost more..

Okay. Can w agree that inflation is bad? How do we stop it so that a plank of plywood doesn’t cost $35? (BTW, that inflated cost of lumber adds about$35,000 to the cost of a new house.) The answer to inflation is so simp lathe Democrats can’t understand it. JUST STOP printing money that isn’t backed up by something substantial like gold or silver. If they flood the market with tons of money the cost of everything will continue to rise. I hate to tell you,  but the present government doesn’t give a shit if gas costs poor people $5.00 a gallon. And pretty  soon we will be like Germany in the 1930s when it took a wheelbarrow full of money to buy that loaf of bread. Runaway inflation is hared to stop, and the inflation train has green lights and a clear track ahead.. Until we change political parties running our government.
