Demanding more funding is a common approach of dictators; stopping funding and returning money to tax payers gives the power back to the people. Then if you want to fund universities, you can. If I want to fund food production, I can. I like to make my own choices, don’t you?… read more “Far left ideology and it’s effects”

Republicans are happy with Trump’s performance so far as he is one of the few politicians who is doing what he promised to do. Some of this work will remove special privileges a few have enjoyed at the expense of their fellow citizens.… read more “Gallup poll”
We have all heard many stories of waste and corruption in the federal government, and how federal worker employees unions get politicians elected in exchange for higher pay and less work… all at our expense. And this has been going on for so long that it has spiraled to insane levels. Simple forms of accountability like typing a 10 minute email saying the five things you did this week are now being treated like people are being water boarded.… read more “Waste and Laziness in the Federal Government Bureaucracy”
The loser of a lawsuit should be forced to pay the winners’ fees. Otherwise the legal process is abused. Also – we need a far cheaper and more efficient legal system. Small claims lawsuits should go to $50,000 and be resolved with a twenty minute hearing. Medium claims lawsuits should go from $50,000 to $1 million and should be resolved with a one day hearing.… read more “Legal System”
I have been caffeine free now for sixty days. The chemical changes you more than you think. It is nice to be me again.
The core of the problem is “fractional reserve banking”. This is what allows incompetent elites to gain control of formerly great businesses like Google and Microsoft.
The way it works is that elites give their banker buddies the special ability to loan $20 for each $1 in deposits they get. This effectively allows them to gamble with the $20 and if a stock price goes up, they win big.… read more “Why are products getting worse from big businesses?”
The finance term for the Ponzi scheme is “fractional reserve banking”. It corrupts Adam Smith capitalism.
The way it works is simple- the government allows certain market players an unfair advantage… They can loan out money they don’t have. If the investment goes up, they make tons of money. If it goes down, the limited liability company allows them to walk away this pushing losses onto the public.… read more “USD Ponzi Scheme”
Corporations turn evil when their founders lose power or leave. Google used to be a genuinely wonderful force for good. But finance people can borrow money at extremely cheap interest rates from government cronies due to the US fractional reserve system. Then the MBAs offer so much money founders basically can’t refuse. Then the companies end up publicly traded and only work on pushing up their next quarters earnings, this becoming evil.
Have you seen businesses that behave like sociopaths? Laying off good employees at random to boost a quarterly report, cutting the value provided to its customers, breaking promises to employees?
Modern finance is the true villain; it removes businesses from the hands of the real founders who understand it and puts it in the hands of clueless MBAs and greedy financiers.… read more “Modern finance”
Preface: I voted for Biden in 2020.
Despite the absurd claims of the far left media, five days into the new administration, I am very happy with the policy progress being made.
Racist rules requiring hiring to be done according to discriminatory racial quotas have been overturned. Now everyone has a fair shot at getting government jobs or contracts.… read more “Five days in”
