Ever wonder how it came to be that everything we use and need, seems to be made in China? I often wondered, and now a fantastic piece by the Washington Post, explains it all. America, before FDR, supported its small central government by tariffs on imported goods. This supported the government, and protected American manufacturing. […]

I am a registered Republican, even though I am a libertarian at heart at least by 90%..  Millions of registered Republicans have strong libertarian leanings, by despising strong central government, and a host of other things.  I feel that other Republicans, such as myself, have become hardened by George W. Bush’s antics, Iraq, Afghanistan, the […]

There is a consensus of all 16 “intelligence” groups of the government, that as I said would happen four years ago, the invasion of Iraq has inflamed the entire Muslim world and turned its adherents into a gigantic jihad against America.  I have been looking over columns I wrote day after day, week after week […]

The  United nations has become a joke.  A serious joke.  The UN has become a rostrum for outrageous speeches, an outlet for cannibals, misfits, uncivilized, and malicious malcontents, just to name a few.  One vote from some jungle ’kingdom’ with a few thousand population counts as much as does America’s vote, and America spends $1.3 […]

There are several possible scenarios for the world’s and US economies. They involve currencies quite naturally, because it is the various currencies which are used to buy stuff around the world. Some have already gone bust and become worthless, and others will follow. The minor ones come and go, and Zimbabwe’s will be next to […]

The  Pope quoted a 550 year old statement from some obscure character who said that the Muslim religion is fraught with violence and that force is not an acceptable way to promulgate a religion.  True enough.  So why has he spent the past week apologizing for his quote?  Is he gutless?  The Muslim religion is […]

The  Constitution says it very plainly in Article One, Section One:  “All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.”  Can’t be any clearer than that, can it?  Bill Clinton, Dubya, and a lot of former Presidents abused that […]

The  internet that is.  Think about it for a minute.  Millions can now access virtually anything from porn to nuclear secrets to encyclopedias.  Over thousand a day read my drivel on my website column. Many simply hate it and me I am certain, and would never buy a dime’s worth of anything from such a […]

Ever hear the line, “With a friend like you, who needs enemies?” Not bad, and it seems to this scribe that it applies to several items and institutions. There are many enemies out there, so don’t get taken in by them, because most of them are in sheep’s clothing. Take Washington D.C. and the “D.C. […]

The fired workers at the Electrolux plant in Greenville  Michigan aren’t too happy with NAFTA, and I trust that the rest of America isn’t either.  Electrolux makes refrigerators, and at one time was the largest maker of them in the entire US, not counting their vacuum cleaners.  Michigan alone has lost over 200,000 manufacturing jobs […]
