In 2019, with a $4-trillion-per-year federal Leviathan, running a joint called Less Government can lead to our taking some seemingly confusing and contradictory policy positions. Of course, we want LESS government – not NO government. We’d like somewhere between $4-trillion-per-year – and Somalia. Admittedly closer to Somalia, but still…. We want a Constitutionally prescribed and […]
Leftists like to pretend they’re things they are not. Because the things they are – are so decidedly unpopular amongst We the People. By and large, We the People like less government. Which, of course, is antithetical to Leftists. The more leftover, warmed-over Leftist “ideas” Democrat Massachusettes Senator and presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren put forward […]
Even when government expansion leads to less success. Which, of course, it always does. For a society to function – the same language must be spoken by all of its members. See: Babel, Tower of. For a society to function – words in said language must be defined the same way by all its members. […]
The Left’s ability to nigh always be incorrect – is really quite impressive. Occasionally a Leftist here or there inadvertently swerves into correctness on this or that issue. But almost always, the Left is profoundly and loudly wrong. The examples are as numerous – as are the stars in the sky. Leftists are awful at […]
We are now faced with a Hard Left-conquered Democrat Party – looking to maximize government in every nook and cranny of our lives. Never discussed by the Hard Left-conquered Democrat Party and their Big Media fellow travelers? Everything government does – it does terribly. I know, I know: The first refuge for anyone looking to […]
The Left’s panoply of policy proposals – is terrible. And has been for decades. It’s why they can not – and do not – run for office on them anymore. The Democrat Party’s entire agenda at the moment is: “Orange Man Bad.” The Democrat Party’s agenda for decades has been: “Republicans Bad.” (With, of course, […]
A fortnight ago we yet again addressed the truism: Bad ideas never die – because there will always be government programs. Britain’s Labour Party Says They’ll Have Government Seize Private Broadband Networks: “Behold – from the Olde Country: “‘Britain’s opposition Labour Party plans to nationalise BT’s broadband network to provide free internet for all if […]
I like a lot of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act – aka the President Donald Trump Tax Cuts. Likely my favorite part – was the $10,000 cap on State and Local Tax Deductions (SALT): “The state and local tax (SALT) deduction allows taxpayers of high-tax states to deduct local tax payments on their […]
And so does the US Left. Though our Democrat Party is still playing it a little more coy. Behold – from the Olde Country: “Britain’s opposition Labour Party plans to nationalise BT’s broadband network to provide free internet for all if it wins power, making a radical election pledge to roll back 35 years of […]
In politics and policy, as in all things – size matters. Small numbers – are smaller than big numbers. To wit: Fake Indian and Democrat Senator/presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren – just received an endorsement for her effort to garner a promotion. Warren Campaign Wins the Endorsement of Black Womxn For: “On Thursday, she snagged an […]
