Most of the world is neither a friendly nor appreciative place. No matter what we in the United States do to help the rest of the planet – no matter how much for how many countries – we only continue to be hated and reviled. A lot of it is not our fault. Because human […]
An ironic thing about government cronyism. Only the hugest companies – who need the government help the least – can afford to bribe and buy it. (This is NOT a call for Little Guy cronyism. We’d like everyone treated equally by the government and the law – per the Constitution’s Fourteenth Amendment.) Monster company Amazon […]
The globalism debate – finally arrived in DC in or about 2015. After percolating for decades in what DC considers America’s hinterlands – which is the vast expanse of America between its coasts. Globalism – per the dictionary: “The development of social, cultural, technological, or economic networks that transcend national boundaries; globalization.” Globalism per DC: […]
The United States goes out of its way – in as many ways as possible – to respect all the religions of the world. In ways large and small, our government hails, praises…and defers to…the planet’s many faiths. To be clear: Not only do I not have any problem at all with this – I […]
Kuwait is allegedly a United States ally. Like far too many alleged US allies – Kuwait sometimes has a really obnoxious way of showing it. For the Millennials and younger in our audience – We the People saved Kuwait’s posterior in 1990. Neighboring Iraq’s Saddam Hussein had invaded and conquered Kuwait. We arrived – and […]
God bless the military and all who honorably serve her. We the People are incredibly fortunate to have a million or so men and women willing to volunteer to defend our nation. It is an incredible sacrifice on their part – for which we should be exceedingly grateful. As mind-bogglingly wasteful with our money as […]
Uber-everything company Amazon (Market Cap: $865 billion) – is a monster. Heralded as a free market success – Amazon has actually engaged in a whole lot of very anti-free market practices to get to be as huge as they are. Amazon’s Anticompetitive History Amazon Has Some Serious Antitrust Issues Amazon’s No-Profit Model: Bleed Competitors to […]
We the People should have known better than to hand the Democrats control of the House of Representatives. To paraphrase P.J. O’Rourke: “Giving money and power to Democrats is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys.” Except “teenage” is too advanced – the Democrats appear to be stuck in eternal adolescence. We have […]
We all last week heard much about this: Amazon Pulls Out of Planned New York City Headquarters I am nauseously loathe to agree with New York Communist – oops, I mean Democrat – Congressman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. But when she’s right – she’s right. Amazon Calls Out Ocasio-Cortez as One of the Lawmakers to Blame For […]
