Survival Sunday

November 15, 2024September 25, 2022 NITZAKHON

First, I am merely an “enlightened amateur”. Please vet & check on your own. Caveat emptor. Consider these to be priming the pump for your own investigations. Second, I fear spicy time is very close, but even a month of food, water, etc., puts you well ahead of most of the sheeple. IMHO, set your … Read more

Survival Sunday

September 18, 2022 NITZAKHON

I’m back. I can’t say everything’s perfect, but thus far there’s respite on the home front. I don’t think I’ll be in divorce court… at least not soon. And given what I fear is coming, and how soon, by the time the home front explodes again, everything else will too – thus, a moot point.

The President is Celebrating the Economy

September 14, 2022 Ray Cardello

We know that the President is having a tough time staying focused, even on his own thoughts, but how tone-deaf does he have to be to spite the American people by gathering his troops together today to celebrate the American economy?

Inflation, Recession, New Taxes. Thanks Joe

August 2, 2022 Ray Cardello

By definition, we officially entered a recession. The second quarter GDP was released, and with two consecutive quarters of negative numbers, the Biden Economy has now hit a new low. By changing definitions, the Biden administration believes they can convince the American public that all is well. Americans are more intelligent than the Biden Team … Read more

Wikipedia Locks Page Edits after it Changes the Definition of “Recession”

August 1, 2022 Steve MacDonald

Much like America’s southern border, the word recession no longer has much meaning. Not because we haven’t got one, or both, we do. They are very real. But sometimes, if you know a guy, you can change how they are perceived or even what they mean.

It is Not Putin, It is Bad Policy

July 14, 2022 Ray Cardello

Here is the problem with our economy and the out-of-control inflation numbers that came out today. Since the President and his band of inept bureaucrats have no idea how they created this horrible economic environment, they cannot have a clue how to get us out of the mess. They are not capable of recovery. The … Read more

The Founders Predicted our Economic Crisis

June 30, 2022 Op-Ed

Did Thomas Jefferson call the economic crisis? “Every thing predicted by the enemies of banks, in the beginning, is now coming to pass. we are to be ruined now by the deluge of bank paper as we were formerly by the old Continental paper.” That’s from a letter to Thomas Cooper in January 1814. And … Read more

Seventy-Eight percent of America’s electric power comes from burning fossil fuels. 32% comes from natural gas and the rest from oil and coal. 9.6% nuclear with the rest wind, Hydro, and solar power. Solar and wind power are weather dependent and require power backup when they are not available.

Biden Speaks (lies) to AFL-CIO. Facts Matter

June 17, 2022 Ray Cardello

Joe Biden spoke to the AFL-CIO this week in what can only be called a stump speech. It was a campaign speech complete with volume changes from whispers to yelling. It was big on style but weak on content. His speech was filled with lies and was both embarrassing and insulting.

Donkey Pox: President who Promised to Break US Domestic Energy Production Tries to Pick up the Pieces

June 14, 2022June 14, 2022 Steve MacDonald

On day one, the Bidenistas tipped over the domestic energy apple cart. In the weeks and months that followed, Democrats stomped on the apples because the Big Guy had promised to end fossil fuels, and end them, they would. They are having second thoughts.

Americans Are Feeling The Squeeze Of “Bidenflation”

June 6, 2022 Op-Ed

I don’t know about you, but my friends and I are really starting to feel the squeeze. One friend is canceling her participation in a summer camping trip because the tank of gas required to get to and from the campground is too costly.

The Mixed Signals Are Getting More Twisted

June 4, 2022 Ray Cardello

Rising gas prices are good, as is low weekly job creation. The President thinks that both indicators are favorable signs that his economic policies are working to recover the economy. He is either delirious, ignorant of Economics 101, or was a classmate of AOC. By his sinking approval numbers, not many are buying what Biden … Read more

The State of the Union is Far From Good

May 26, 2022 Ray Cardello

My blog started its journey on January 25, 2021. Donald Trump had left Washington the week before his new home at Mar-a-Lago, and except for the Pandemic, he turned over a country that was in good shape and ready to come out of hibernation and grow. The Border was secure, inflation at 2%, the stock … Read more

After Subway Picked Megan Rapinoe as Spokesperson a Lot of Their Customers Decided to “Take a Knee”

May 3, 2022May 3, 2022 Steve MacDonald

Megan Rapinoe is a millionaire athlete who whines about her pay, kneels for the Anthem, and is entitled to her less than uplifting opinion of America and the majority white population. And she owns it, so props there. But someone at Subway thought that’d make for a great spokesperson.

Check Out Joe Biden’s CPI Flexible Price Index Hockey Stick

April 20, 2022 Steve MacDonald

Marxism fails because even in a free market, experts can’t predict what will happen. There are too many moving parts in the US Economy, including the changing needs or whims of the 330 million Americans. But Marxists will be Marxists.

One Minute Read – Call it What it is: Bidenflation

April 14, 2022 Steve MacDonald

Ben Shapiro has a great piece at The Daily Signal exposing the BS of the Putin Price Hike narrative being aped by the poo-flinging media monkeys. The key evidence? Where things were and were headed before Russia invaded Ukraine. Up ⇑ !

‘We the People’ Are the New, Permanent Underclass in America

April 13, 2022 Op-Ed

This is financial tyranny.

The U.S. government—and that includes the current administration—is spending money it doesn’t have on programs it can’t afford, and “we the taxpayers” are the ones who must foot the bill for the government’s fiscal insanity.

This Can Not Be Allowed to Continue
