I always cringe when the liberals propose more laws prohibiting this and that, ‘to protect us,’ of course. Look at U.S. history, and you will find that anti-gun legislation, hasn’t slowed gun violence at all. Why not? Because guns have never killed anyone. People die from guns, baseball bats, strangulation, drowning, drug overdoses, skiing accidents, […]
Capital punishment, has been eliminated around the world, and partially in the U.S. as well. To me, capital punishment for murderers, rapists, perpetual criminals, and you name it, is logical, humane, justifiable, and very reasonably priced. There are hundreds of millions of usually men in the world, which should be put out of our misery, […]
A dictionary definition of capitalism is: “An economic system in which all or most of the means of production and distribution, are privately owned and operated.” Under a capitalistic system, the consumer is the controlling influence. Consumers buy or fail to buy what is manufactured and placed on the market, thereby controlling whether it is […]
The only Amendment added to our Constitution, and voided by another, is the 18th, which didn’t prohibit drinking alcoholic beverages, but prohibited “manufacture, sale, or transportation of intoxicating liquors…” I am quite certain that the Carry Nation (1846-1911) supporters were proud, as she attempted to destroy bars with her little hatchet. It was passed and […]
I’ve often said that there’s real money and fake money. There are different brands of fake money. As an example of the fake, I have a one hundred trillion dollar Zimbabwe bank note (that’s 14 zeros) and also a 500 trillion note, from a bank in “Hapoaha,” wherever that is. It’s not in dollars, but […]
“THE POWERS NOT DELEGATED TO THE UNITED STATES BY THE CONSTITUTION, NOR PROHIBITED BY IT TO THE STATES, ARE RESERVED TO THE STATES RESPECTIVELY, OR TO THE PEOPLE.” If that amendment were followed, 90% of the federal government would be disbanded. The Constitution does not authorize wealth redistribution, regulating everything, subsidizing everything, controlling everything, and […]
The so-called “tough guys” of the world, are the dumbest. Violence of every kind, is a mark of stupidity, and if you disagree, stop and think about it. Violent people are never smart. They merely substitute toughness, muscle, foul-language, or guns, for brains and intellect. It requires no intelligence, to curse and swear. It requires […]
The Federal Government is like an enormous slot machine, with flashing lights, lots of payout slots, and big wheels with pictures of fruit on them. The wheels automatically spin and stop. Spin and stop, 24 hours a day. Unlike conventional slot machines, this one produces a winner with every spin. Instead of putting cash into […]
Physical things, are supremely important in our lives. Today, in the financial as in virtually every other aspect in our lives, physical anything, seems to have lost its importance. In financial matters, does anyone have a physical share of stock? There probably over 2 trillion shares of stock in over 6,000 companies, and after […]
Taken from a 2011 column I wrote, titled “Automatic.” There are certain things that one does, without even thinking…luckily! Take breathing as an example. If you had to concentrate on every breath, be aware of every need to increase your breathing or slow it, by the end of the day, you would be so worn […]
