I AM OFFICIALLY ENDORSING LIBERTARIAN PARTY CANDIDATE JO JORGENSEN FOR THE 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION

 

 

I am endorsing the Libertarian Party Presidential candidate Jo Jorgensen for the 2020 election. A well educated and intelligent individual, free of scandals or vices, and she makes a lot more sense than any of the clownish candidates supported by the two corrupt major parties.  She is running on the Libertarian Party platform, and most voters will not be familiar or accustomed to her ideas. 

The following is taken directly from her campaign webpage

Issues: Generations of Republican and Democrat politicians have failed the people of America. Together they’ve given us:

  • Over $26 trillion in debt, trillion-dollar deficits, plus trillions more in unfunded liabilities
  • Non-Stop Involvement in expensive and deadly foreign war
  • Skyrocketing health care costs
  • The highest imprisonment rate in the world; even higher among racial minorities and the poor
  • A broken retirement system unable to pay promised benefits
  • Tariffs that are destroying markets for American farmers

  

Wikipedia provides a detailed list of all her policy positions. The United States has a great many problems, and it is time for a fresh look at our government's policies and some new ideas. Actually, many of her ideas are based on traditional American values of personal liberty, limited government, and doing what is in the best interest of the nation. 

 It is time for new blood and fresh leadership. 

It is time to get away from the usual Democrat and Republican party bickering, gridlock, and failed ideas. 

It is time for everyone that cares about this country to support Jo Jorgensen at the ballot box this November.

ON THE ROAD TO OBLIVION



Congress is borrowing money at an insane pace, $86.3 Billion just in the month of June. 
The National Debt is $26Trillion (26,000,000,000,000) and rising quickly. At some point the US taxpayer is going to be forced to pay an extremely high price, and our nation will face some very difficult choices.  

Do any of the geniuses in Congress, in our great think tanks, or on social media, understand or care about this coming disaster? Apparently not.

Our presidents should have been screaming, yelling, and literally fighting with Congress to stop this madness; however, they seem equally happy to spend our country into oblivion. During the Obama Administration more money was borrowed than any other presidency, in the futile hope of getting the nation out of the Great Recession. But there is plenty of blame to go around, George W. was highly skilled at borrowing money for his wars and pet projects, while Trump seems completely oblivious to the problem and is spending money like there's no tomorrow. 

 Realistically speaking, there's absolutely nothing that can be done about it, at this point. It's already too late. The National Debt is so huge, so unimaginably vast, it can never be paid off. Writing in the July 2020 issue of "Foreign Affairs" magazine, Sebastian Mallaby provides excellent insight as to how the Global Elite and members of exclusive think tanks view this problem. They view every crises as an opportunity for government to expand it's power over society through endless spending. The author describes the Great Recession of 2008 and the COVID-19 pandemic, which have caused immeasurable harm and misery for millions of people around the world, as a fine opportunity for would be autocrats to tighten their grip on society. He goes on to describe how various financial tricks on the bond market can permanently forestall any consequences of infinite government spending.

"Today, the United States and other advanced countries are experiencing the second wave of an especially powerful twin shock. Taken individually, either the global financial crises of 2008 or the global pandemic of 2020 would have been enough to change public finances, driving government to to create and borrow money freely. Combined, these two crises are set to transform the spending power of the state. A new era of assertive and expansive government beckons. Call it the age of magic money." 

What can be said to such a twisted mentality? That is a difficult question. The author is a dedicated believer in government power, as if elected politicians have somehow found all the answers to every problem. As can be surmised from the above citation, the Elite and their cronies in Congress, have every intention of continuing on this reckless spending behavior; regardless of any possible consequences. I just hope that when the "magic money" runs out, the average citizen is not expected to bear the burden of other people's carelessness.

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY


Happy Fourth of July!

I will not burden you with a lengthy analysis of Ronald Reagan's historical speech he gave during the 1964 Presidential campaign. Needless to say, Reagan was called the "greater communicator" for good reason, nobody could deliver a speech with such finesse.

Getting away from the nostalgia of having such a truly great man in White House, his words were prophetic. The United States has lost it's way, the voters have allowed crooked and corrupt politicians to lead them into further and further into a Socialist form of authoritarian governance. Ronald Reagan, John F. Kennedy, or any of the great presidents of the past would be sickened by what our nation has become.

Below is black and white video footage of that great speech. Watch and enjoy it, and try to reconcile what Reagan is saying with the nation as it is today. Of course, I will offer my own analysis, but at a later date.

Enjoy, and have a very great Independence Day.

EVERYTHING "AMERICAN" IS A TARGET

Statue of George Washington toppled by rioters in Portland
 The urge to topple statutes, desecrate cemeteries, and conduct other acts of brainless vandalism did not begin or end with symbols of the Confederacy. ALL symbols of US history, culture, and society are targeted for destruction. The Global Elite, in their desire for absolute world power, have determined that all symbols of national pride, religious belief, and custom and tradition, must be destroyed. Cannon fodder type street activists are great for vandalizing and destruction, while more nuanced college administrators, media figures, and elected officials provide the intellectual justification for the destruction of cultural symbols.

Removing people's beliefs, identity, gender, and sense of community will make people easier to control and manipulate. People that have a set of somewhat traditional values will object to certain behaviors, such as shooting into a crowd of protesters or attacking the congregation of a church while it's in service. Unfortunately, pop culture controls popular opinion, and pop culture is not conducive to any sort of traditional values.

I am not a fan or supporter of Confederate statues or symbols, nor do I care if they are removed. However, I care very greatly when I see ignorant and misguided people attempting to destroy statues of Washington, Jefferson, and Lincoln. We should all be alarmed when schools declare they will not raise the US flag, or when people attack the National Anthem and other symbols of our nation.

WHO WATCHES THE WATHCERS?


Who watches the watchers?
This expression was meant by Dr. Sues to be satirical; however, the current situation is one in which reality is stranger than fiction. The corporate heads of social media have an obvious bias and political agenda, and anything that questions that agenda is quickly removed from their platforms.

The most fundamental aspect of any "Free" society is the ability of citizens to express themselves freely, without the fear of official reprisal or condemnation. The United States was founded on the belief that the autocratic kings and nobles that lead European governments, limited society's ability to reach its fullest potential in the areas of scientific exploration, commerce, and societal evolution that occurs with the free exchange of ideas. The Constitution, and the various Amendments to it, being the highest law of the nation, are based on the principle that government should be limited in it's ability to interfere with people's lives.  It is an unfortunate reality that Americans have forgotten the ugly side of history that lead to the American Revolution, and even more worrisome is that many Americans do not understand or appreciate the unique Freedoms granted by the Constitution and Bill of Rights. 
Today we live in an environment in which reality has become a subjective factor, with the truth being hidden by those with personal political agendas. Many topics are not open for public discussion, and many long held beliefs (religious and otherwise) have been unjustly attacked as evil or hateful by a well organized and tightly controlled mainstream media. Gone are the days when the public openly questioned results published by the Congressional committee investigating the John Kennedy assassination. Gone are the days when a scientist could successfully publish highly controversial material, such as that of Charles Darwin or Galileo. Today all academic research must fall within certain rigid parameters of acceptable topics of study, and all findings of such research must abide by the insidious rules of political correctness. 

The masters of social media, having been threatened by Congress, have clamped down on the sharing of any article that does not meet certain very subjective criteria. Anyone that questions the status quo must do so with very carefully selected language, or such a person is quickly banned. The newest phenomenon in thought control is Facebook's use of "expert" fact checkers to scrutinize articles shared by users. Who are these experts? Who selected them? Why are Facebook users, and article publishers, not permitted to respond to these so called experts? 
Social media is here to stay, billions of people use sites such as Facebook and YouTube on a daily basis. Obviously some censorship is required in order to keep certain material, such as pornography or depictions of gruesome violence, out of view of innocent users. However, these platforms should not be engaged in thought control, nor should they limit the free exchange of ideas. I fear social media is becoming a new method for power hungry politicians to place an ever expanding yoke on the public.
