After the Revolution, when the newly formed United States was in operation, it is quite obvious that we were formed by refugees from foreign lands. When the Founders fought Mother England, it was because of heavy taxation and rules which became intolerable. A similar situation happened when the UK voted to leave the European Union. […]
President Donald Trump woke up one day last week, and tweeted that Obama had hacked into his phone during the campaign. That started another media frenzy, which will probably not die down in the near future. I say, “So what?” I am certain that thousands of telephones have been hacked, with or without knowledge of […]
“The Arctic Ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer, and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday, from the Consulate at Bergen Norway. Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers, all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto […]
A long time ago, as a matter of fact, it’ll be forty years ago in November, I went into the precious metals business. November, 1977 it was. I was 43, and there were no TV advertisers. I was virtually alone. Why “Colorado Gold?” Because I love Colorado, have spent more than half my life here, […]
A Colorado paper recently moaned about the hundreds of millions of dead trees, which were, and still are being killed by beetles. According to the paper, the hundreds of millions of dead trees in National Forest and BLM lands in western states, are ‘public’ or ‘owned’ by the federal government. “Publicly owned,” would have to […]
One of Trump’s most popular promises to voters, when he was running for office, was that he would “build a wall.” That was fine, except he also promised that Mexico would pay for it. I always had trouble with that. It made no sense. Suppose you had a factory or valuable property or business, and […]
One of the most mistaken ideas of late, is that the wonderful, graceful, Statue of Liberty, which graces New York Harbor, is identified with the poem inside its base. Titled, “The New Colossus.” You know, “…Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to be free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore, […]
That’s really the “In” word now, isn’t it? At least for the liberals and all the others who currently suck at our treasury and goodwill. ‘Globalization,’ is merely another way of saying ‘redistribution,’ or maybe, ‘equalization.’ The object of ‘globalization,’ is to bring everyone down to the same level, and quite naturally this means making […]

Are you familiar with the phrase ”Acid Rain?” Probably not, at least unless you’re as old as I am. (I’ll be 83 next month). Many years ago, the usual clique of white robbed, serious sounding, multiple degreed scientists, declared in no uncertain terms, that man (as usual) was destroying the earth with acid rain. The […]
