The latest power grab is really frightening. The last, free of editing, free of government interference, free of regulations, and total freedom to express views contrary to the establishment, is the internet. The internet runs all by itself, with no dependence of any kind on government facilities, and is totally free from governance […]
As I write these columns about what government has done to us, I haven’t the slightest problem with going back to 1776 and my favorite Tom Jefferson’s Declaration of Independence. Mother England had in fact done exactly what government has done to us, as England did to the Colonists 239 years ago, and […]
As I write these columns about what government has done to us, I mentioned previously that what government has done to us, is to kill incentive. Incentive to care for ourselves, family, friends, and even groups we are attached to, such as churches and charitable organizations. A book I bought years ago, and […]
The governmental war on its citizens, takes many forms. Public education, like Social Security, has been around for so long, that few will question its validity. A brief history of public education, takes us back to the 1800’s, and even earlier, but compulsory public school attendance was not passed until the beginning of […]
What Has Government Done To Us? (part three) The governmental war on its citizens, aside from stupid wars, which we never should have participated in, really began with the presidency of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who ran on a ’conservative’ platform, and an anti-war platform, but who turned into the biggest fraud and […]
What Has Government Done To Us? Part Two The ’Great Depression’ of 1929 to 1941, was caused by government and the Federal Reserve.

What Has Government Done To Us? Our government goes back to the American Revolution and subsequent Constitution. The Declaration of Independence, says that "Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the […]
’Twas The Day After Christmas." "’Twas the day after Christmas, and all through the house, every creature was hurting, even the mouse. The toys were all broken, their batteries dead. Santa passed out, with some ice on his head. Wrappings and ribbons just covered the floor, while upstairs the family continued to snore. […]
A lie, if repeated often enough, will be accepted as truth. I am so terribly sick of all the lies which come out of D.C., the media and their devotees. The 9/11 scam, which everyone believes, other than people who have a brain, or that a little pipsqueak with a cheap Italian rifle […]
I am amused at the current brouhaha in the news about the hideous things the C.I.A. (can’t identify anything) did, after 9/11. They water boarded, deprived sleep for 180 hours, stuck drills into heads, and lot of really hideous things, which I wholly condemn. Even though I voted for him, for probably the first […]
