He’s made it clear – we individuals need the handy helping hand to direct our every move and decision. This from Prof. Don Boudreaux (emphasis mine):

Speaking of Potential Vote-by-Mail Fraud: It’s The CA District 25 Edition
OK, their election was last week, so I’m a tad late. But, given that I have this OTHER vote-by-mail post on the “abstract” of the issue, here’s an example “in concrete”. And no, no whining that just because it happened in CA doesn’t mean it can’t happen here (reformatted, emphasis mine):
Palate Cleanser: jumping out of a perfectly good airplane at 25K feet – parachute IS optional
Or actually, parachute just isn’t there. At all. Would YOU decide to jump out where’s there not enough oxygen to sustain you and attempt to fly yourself into a net with no backup chute in case you change your mind or seeing that “stuff” just went sideways?
Notable Quote – Ludwig von Mises
Those that accept this premise totally ignore that some of those “wretched underlings” rise to be able to manipulate the Government’s levers of Powers. Thus, this narrative von Mises has made sport of, is totally untrue and broken.
Data Point – COVID-19 Mortality cost vs Economy cost
The cumulative costs through May 16, 2020 were $9,826 per household ($1.2 trillion in aggregate). 16 percent of these are mortality costs (valued at $4.3 million VSL; over the past seven days, the percentage was 16). The rest are the market and nonmarket costs of shutting down the economy, for the categories documented by Mulligan (2020). The costs above do not necessarily … Read more
So why are NH Democrats losing their minds to get vote-by-mail into place? Part 1
Emphasis mine: Heed Jimmy Carter on the Danger of Mail-In Voting: ‘Absentee ballots remain the largest source of potential voter fraud.’ “Absentee ballots remain the largest source of potential voter fraud.” That quote isn’t from President Trump, who criticized mail-in voting this week after Wisconsin Democrats tried and failed to change an election at the … Read more
Palate Cleanser: Almost ANYthing is considered to be a Coronavirus death nowadays
Alternative Title: Men, be mindful of what you say even when telling the truth:
November is coming – and so will the Presidential Debates
A very serious time – the leadership of the Free World is at stake with serious…….oh, who am I kidding! Heh! Yes, they should be HIGHLY amusing! (H/T: Powerline)
Quick Thought: Dr. Seth Emont – such a courageous display of non-conviction
The end of his Op-Ed in the Union Leader caught more of my attention than the dribble he had IN the Op-Ed (emphasis mine): Dr. Seth Emont lives in Walpole, manages the Tobacco Cessation Program at Cheshire Medical Center and leads the Cheshire Coalition for Tobacco Free Communities. The beginning was “Time to protect children … Read more
What Government is ALLOWING you to do…
…versus what it is DEMANDING you do. Or, at least those “behind” government. “Those who vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything.” ― Joseph Stalin Stalin? Democrats? They ARE all about who counts the votes. Ask yourself, WHY is it that it is just Democrats that are absolutely WAILING for all voting … Read more
“People do not go to church just to feel good; they go in order to be good.”
Good quote on Government (specifically New Zealand but similar to NH and other States) not seeing the value of Worship and treating it like secular activities (emphasis mine):
The obligatory Hitler finds out that COVID-19 won’t stop Trump from being re-elected
Yes, the ubiquitous Hitler in the Bunker – there are lots of them on all kinds of issues. This one, however, takes a smack at lots of things and people. Best line attributed by Hitler on Nancy Pelosi: “She can’t even keep her dentures in”: Heh!
Quick Thought: The Educational-Industrial Complex always has this as a ready answer. ENOUGH ALREADY!
And it plays out over and over and over again. I’ve blogged a number of times: I overheard two teachers (who were also union reps) at a Town Meeting a few years mutter between themselves:
Data Point – “1% of Counties Home to Half of COVID-19 Cases, Over Half of Deaths”
Reformatted, emphasis mine: As Heritage Foundation researchers have demonstrated throughout the pandemic, the spread of COVID-19 in the U.S. has been extremely concentrated in a small number of states—and among a small number of counties within all states. As of May 11, for example, 10 states accounted for almost 70% of all U.S. cases and nearly 75% … Read more
A short clip that only COVID Karens would love – Calling Mindi Messmer!
or hate. And yes, you are being made sport of by Kevin James. This video is MADE TO ORDER for folks like her and anyone else that is taking “guidelines” too seriously. Gosh, the shame factor, the STIGMA, we’re seeing now used to be reserved for the shiftless, the lazy, the ne’er-do-wells, addicts, thieves, con-men … Read more
All Bob’s money – by REASON magazine
This was sent to me a while ago before Bernie dropped out. That said, it seems to be rather true, still, of how little the Democrat Socialists (one in the same nowadays) view your Right to Private Property – you money. You delayed self-gratification, you worked hard, put in the time, made the struggles, “cheaped … Read more
Palate Cleanser – doesn’t help when the emails go to the “boss”
Heh! Doug left GraniteGrok quite some time ago. That said, it seems like scammers are always out of date. Doesn’t help when the email telling “you” that you’ve been fired goes to the “boss”. I actually get this type of email on a regular basis: From: “Human Resources Manager” To: doug@granitegrok.com Sent: 4/30/2020 5:08:33 AM … Read more
Isn’t he just a SPECIAL sort of Stupid: Jim Morgan
Yes, we get tips from time to time (actually, more and more often) and this one is a special sort of amusing. However, to set the stage and remind you of some important history, let’s start with these:
