Yesterday, (Wednesday July 11th) Trump was screaming at protesters of his 50% copper tariff, and like other tariffs he dissolves and institutes them at the whim of his mind at the time. Trump kept saying, “They pay, you don’t.” Totally untrue. Tariffs are items he never campaigned on, and which may imitate the Smoot-Hawley tariffs […]
Brian Kuhregner, who murdered three young girls, has changed his plea to “Guilty,” to avoid being put to death for his heinous crime of murdering the three young girls. He will now get ‘three life sentences without possibility of parole.’ I have just checked, and the yearly cost per prisoner kept in a federal prison, […]
There are two conservative, sophisticated journals I subscribe to and read from cover to cover upon their issuance. They are The “Wall Street Journal,” and the “National Review.” The latest issue of the Review has a great analysis of Putin and why he invaded Ukraine, and it may not be what you believe. “The overriding […]
Honestly, I can think for myself, and can easily write about my ideas and thoughts, but when a Journal piece comes around and explains what we’ve all wondered about, it just has to be a column! Ever wonder why college graduates seem to turn out to be blazing liberals, in direct opposition to the way […]
The Chairman of China Mao, (1893-1976), killed 65 million, and when he died, left China as probably the poorest, most underdeveloped, enslaved, nation on earth. There was no industry, food, or civilization, and China was literally starving. It was hopeless, to put it mildly. There were no Chinese students in America, and no American or […]
The GDP stands for the ‘Gross Domestic Product,’ and basically stands for what government and citizens buy and sell, or how many dollars have changed hands. This statistic is supposed to tell us how good or bad our economy is. If we buy a lot and sell a lot, that is supposed to be good, […]
The 10,000 ton ship “Tilawa” was built in 1924. She was a coal fired, passenger liner, had a crew of 220, and of the 732 passengers on board, most were saved, after a Jap sub sank her in November of 1942. A tragedy, and a Microscopic version of the hundreds of millions of tons of […]
Ever watch the commercials for prescription drugs on TV? After telling everyone how wonderful they are, and the models telling one and all, how their hot flashes are a thing of the past, they lost 40 pounds, sleep well, think well, have no more indigestion, have great sex, run a mile, swim laps, and a […]
“Money,” can be described as a device used to purchase something, or perhaps a compact way to store something valuable or something which represents a valuable item. Stock, is a microscopic ownership in a corporation, and I say ‘microscopic,’ because as an example, there are over a billion shares of GM in circulation or ownership […]
“Blind Pigs,” was just another name for “Speakeasies.” Prohibition was perhaps just as disgusting as are the illegal drugs today. No, I haven’t done any drugs and never will, because I want to keep my mind intact, but then I have never been drunk either for the same reason. A nip of good bourbon over […]
