The Bailout Fallacy

December 30, 2024 David Gordon

It is always encouraging when a non–Austrian School economist accepts through his own reasoning an essential tenet of Austrian economics. Ruchir Sharma, who is chairman of Rockefeller International, founder and chief investments officer of Breakout Capital, and a well-known economic journalist, is not an Austrian, though he is aware of Friedrich Hayek’s work. He lends … Read more

57 Attacks On Our Military, 9 Hostages, And We Give Iran $10 Billion

November 16, 2023 Ray Cardello

We have completely lost our minds and moral compass. When I say we, I don’t mean the collective we. I mean the Biden Government “We.” Weeks ago, Biden freed $6 Billion of Iran’s assets. Biden, Blinken, KJP, and the rest of the sordid cast have repeated ad nauseam that Qatar was in control of the funds and it could only be released for humanitarian purposes.

Forgiving Your Student Loans Will Actually Cost You More – A lot More!

June 8, 2022June 8, 2022 Steve MacDonald

If you fell for the pyramid scheme of modern higher learning, that’s your fault. An overpriced (increasingly) useless degree paid for with a loan that’s part of another Democrat campaign laundromat. And now you’re yelping for a bailout? Clearly, that degree is more useless than I imagined. You can’t even do simple math.

IRS Delays US Tax Deadline to May 17….WHAT? The IRS has That Power?

March 19, 2021March 18, 2021 Skip

This would be two years in a row the government has extended tax day. Last year was because the WuFlu made life so difficult. People couldn’t do the forms and gather their data because of…..what? The stress of being home and not having the time?

Many Americans are settling in for the holidays. The bi-partisan swamp in DC has already given itself gifts from you. Santa came early this year to the swamp. It arrived last Monday night. Ho, Ho, Ho… The joke’s on you.

Why Your President Shut Down COVID “Relief” Negotiations With Pelosi

October 7, 2020October 7, 2020 Steve MacDonald

The Left is losing their minds, and lying, as usual. I’ve already seen campaign garbage from the likes of Senator Shaheen. We should focus on more covid bailouts, not SCOTUS nominees. Are you sure, Senator? Is that your final answer?

So, How Much Money Did NH Get to Keep Us Locked Down?

June 20, 2020June 19, 2020 Steve MacDonald

This is a quick one—more questions than answers. But I’m throwing it out for crowdsourcing because NH has always been ready to milk the Jackpot Justice Cow. COVID-19 turned out to be just such a cow, and someone sent me this a while back. I missed it until now, but it is still relevant.

Coronavirus Bailout Money for Higher Ed Institutions

May 7, 2020May 6, 2020

What did you spend for coronavirus bailout money for higher Ed institutions? Harvard decided not to apply for their $9 million share of the $2.2 trillion CARES Act. With an endowment of over $40 billion that is very gracious.

Cruz Unloads on Democrats over coronavirus bill

Sen. Ted Cruz Unloads on Dems Who Are Hijacking Coronavirus to Appease Left-Wing Lobbyists

March 24, 2020 Steve MacDonald

Sen. Ted Cruz has a few thoughts for his Democrat colleagues. “What the hell do the emissions standards on airplanes have to do with thousands of people dying and millions of people out of work…”

It’s Your Money and Your Children’s Money and Their Children’s Money

August 17, 2019

More bailouts coming… Our nation’s finances are in the toilet. The debt is the highest it has ever been. This year’s deficit has already eclipsed last year’s total figure. Both political parties got together to eliminate the financial restraints imposed in 2011. What is Congress doing? Are they stupid, on drugs or do they just … Read more

Jeb Bradley is Prepared to Screw New Hampshire Ratepayers No Matter What the Cost

November 11, 2018 Steve MacDonald

State Sen. Jeb Bradley didn’t lose last Tuesday but you will. He’s got a lot more company in the State Senate than the last session with Democrats in the Majority. Together they can advance legislation like SB466. (Union Leader) State Sen. Jeb Bradley, R-Wolfeboro, is among those hoping the state mounts a vigorous defense of the biomass … Read more

GrokTALK! Casinos, Carry Bills, and Bond Ratings

July 15, 2024April 26, 2015 Steve MacDonald

Is NH on the cusp of a Casino Gambling embrace? What are the odds we’ll finally pass constitutional carry? And could a bill in the Legislature damage the state’s bond rating and open the door to an endless string of taxpayer backed bailouts?

Which Utopian Democrat Dream-Scam Is Failing Faster?

September 26, 2018July 13, 2012 Steve MacDonald

Which ~~Utopian~~ dystopian Democrat dream-Scam is failing faster?

In Cah-Lee-Four-Knee-Ah the Workers paradise is collapsing at an ever increasing rate as the anchor of unsustainable public union contracts and pensions drag otherwise average, every-day, incompetently run, but barely sustainable left wing bureaucrapalities (bureaucratically strangled municipalities run by an endless string of administrators and political descendents of the Democrat bloodline) into bankruptcy.

In Obamaville, the chronically unemployed can look up from the gutters of Hopey-changey Way to watch the lights dim on an unending string of Solar Panel/Green Energy company failures as the DoE’s wasted-billions to prop up the Renewable Energy Utopia ding-bats like Jeanne Shaheen have oversight on, produce nothing but failure and rising debt service payments.

The missing link between these two is happily not missing. And you cant blame George Bush. These failures are both of products of Progressives, mostly Democrats, attempting to micromanage labor, its type, direction, output, and value.
