I hear it all the time.  “I’m going to take these silver coins and buy food when the dollar collapses.”  First of all, you can’t take a silver or gold coin to the gas station or grocery store and buy food or gas with it, because retailers have to pay their bills in dollars, […]

Far too many people think government GIVES freedom, rather than taking it from us, as is the case.  People with red, white, and blue attitudes, rave about our freedoms and thank government for them.  This is totally wrong, and it is high time someone said so.  In the debates last night, Ron Paul was the […]

  Jobs, are undoubtedly what Obama’s going to speak about Thursday.  Jobs are lacking in America.  Obama will talk about rebuilding infrastructure, which is not a profit making idea, because naturally, government and the taxpayer will pay for it.  He will also talk about raising taxes on the wealthy.  Nothing new there, except the earners […]

  Corruption or stupidity?  I say it’s combination of both.  Here are some examples of both, but ALL originate in that capital of absurdity, Washington D.C. At the end of 2010, 96, mostly Democrat, House members paid their office staff $6.7 million in bonuses, all paid by taxpayers, of course. Obama Care is so wonderful, […]

  Vapors?  It’s an old expression I suppose, but when a car is just about out of gas, some people say “It’s running on vapors.”  The entire world’s economies are running on vapors, but none are as close to being out of gas as is Japan.  They will have 5 premiers in the last six […]

  Celebration? Yes!  Let’s celebrate some more!  Let’s see how wonderful the ATF is, shall we?  You know, the  Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms division, and which has recently been enlarged to ’Explosives.’  Do we need to spend hundreds of billions a year to control Alcohol, tobacco, firearms, and  now explosives?  I think EVERYONE should have […]

  Celebration? Yes!  Let’s all celebrate, because now, one out of seven Americans receive food stamps!  According to the ding bat ’economists’ in that home of ding bats, Washington D.C., they say that food stamps gives people money to spend, and thereby helps the economy.  According to them, welfare has the same effect on the […]

  The space station, exploration, supposed moon landings, trips to Mars, and now a six year trip to Jupiter, as far as I can see, is, and have seen, a total waste of probably a trillion dollars.  How’s that for a blanket statement? Of what value is that space station, which keeps getting additions to […]

  “The Rock Island Line,” was a popular tune decades ago, and I’m certain many of you remember it.  I’m a railroad buff, as you perhaps already know, and it occurs to me that the demise of the Rock Island Railroad, whose last train ran in 1980, might be comparable to the mess in D.C., which […]

  To watch the London riots on TV, was shocking to me.  The “bobbies” (London police) had no guns!  They had little round shields, and a few dogs against hundreds and maybe even thousands of mostly black rioters, who succeeded in burning an entire neighborhood over a three day period.  They were breaking into homes, […]
