State Governors Killing the Economy

By now people should have figured this out. The lockdowns are not about public safety. They are about purging the optimism of the Trump Economy. They are about destroying what the last four years has built. 

It isn't the Virus that is doing this, it is the actions of the Governors and especially the Leftist Governors in the states of Massachusetts, New York, Rhode Island, Michigan etc. They are purposely killing their economies with their shutdowns, rollouts and then return to shutdowns. They have just dangled hope of opening to these businesses for months when initially they said "three weeks". It's all bullshit and quite illegal since none of these actions have been taken with approval of the state legislatures. But the governors own the courts, they appoint the judges and they authorize their pay so when citizens appeal to the judicial branch, they get BUPKIS!

Living in Fear

There's very little truth being told over the airwaves and this is just the way things are going to be from now on with the recent overthrow of the Republic. You still have the same remote chance of succumbing to the Virus as you had 9 months ago which is less than 2%. The idea that nobody is dying from anything else these days should be a point for pause. The regular flu used to kill about 35 to 55 thousand people a year in the USA but I guess that it doesn't any more. 

As Dean Wormer said back in the movie Animal House, "Fat, Dumb and Stupid is no way to go through life, son." and I have to conquer. You call this living? Living in fear of your fool life and afraid to live it? This is what this country was built on? I'm frankly surprised at how many Rubes bought into this scheme so quickly and so totally to the point where they'll walk in the street with their back to traffic just to avoid walking past me on the side walk. I say to them "You know, you can be killed doing that." and they never say anything back or change their stride. It's one big con and here we are 9 months on they STILL haven't figured it out! 

Quite frankly, I'm appalled at the behavior. Yes, you can get sick and die. But you can do that every day of the week every year of your life. Death stalks the human race every day. 

As social-psychologist Sheldon Solomon said in Michael Moorer's great environment scam expose' Planet of the Humans, "You can step out of your house and get hit by a fucking meteor!" And he's right. Any time you step off the curb to cross the street could be your last time. So you don't stay huddled in your house because of that? Concern for your life (or others for that matter) isn't causing you to drive the speed limit and almost 40 thousand people die each year driving. And many are not pleasant deaths. 

It makes no sense to me, this abject, all-consuming...fear.

Moving the Goal Posts

Another action that should turn on the bell in you noggin' is that first the Vaccine will help us return to "a normal life" but now that it's actually been discovered and is being rolled out, the tune about it's restorative effects has changed. It's no longer the Elixir of Normalcy that it was touted as. Why? 

Because the election isn't quite over yet. Until President Trump is actually out of the White House, this isn't going to let up. AND since the lockdown orders has worked so well on the dutiful public, they will want to see how long they can keep this going. 

We could be wearing masks come this time next year. And we already know the people who will NEVER take them off again. 

I am not my brother's keeper but you all don't know how silly or craven you look when I see you all on the sidewalk, OUTSIDE or driving INSIDE YOUR CAR with the windows rolled up WEARING A STUPID MASK. 

Why the Governor's aren't wearing masks or staying home.

This is because they know something you don't. That the chances of them keeling over from the Virus is remote. That's why they're ordering restaurants and businesses to shut down one minute and the next they're either in the hair solon, dining out with friends or in a meeting with 20 people without masks. They aren't worried one whit!

You wanna be a drone and live like that, have at it. But your being played and have been from the beginning. Don't know when you all will smarten up but for the sake of the soon-to-be-lost Republic, I hope it's sooner than later. 

Our loss of Freedom

You're not going to like the future if the future is going to look like this. I don't people have gotten it yet, the implications of what has just happened. They're still saying "We'll beat them next time!" when there will be no next time. No fair time next time any way. If allowed to stand, this Conspiracy of Leftist States will become the routine. And once a group convinces themselves that this was the right thing to do, they will forever delude themselves that their next step will be right also.

Voting with your Feet

New Yorkers have got the right idea. They're leaving the city and the state in droves in a Dysphoria of the Affluent. The people who can't work from home or afford to just pick up and leave will be stuck with the bill. 

This has been happening in California also and is spreading across the country. The U.S. will stratify, I think, leaving the blue states very blue and the red states very red. Finding a place where there are people who think like you will be the main attraction and also not be picking your pocket every other day. 

The Coming Fallout

You can't defy gravity for long. There will be a corresponding crash of some kind as a result of all this government spending and no money coming into the tax coffers. It's simple accounting that nobody is counting on to rear it's ugly head. They think the Federal government will just write a check and they'll be fine. But the Feds are $30 Trillion in the hole already. What ever check they write is borrowed. The states, like New York, were also in the red and what ever check they get will not be enough. Here in Massachusetts, they've not laid off one public services worker. Nobody is riding the trains, few are working in the city of Boston. They're not spending money to park, ride the trains, at restaurants, going to movies or plays, it's mostly stopped. So where is the city or state going to get the money to pay all these people? 

Just wonder. So should everybody. Especially the Governor. 

The Covid Scare is Over

Oh but the Media fear mongering will continue. It just drones on and on every day without end to the point where anyone who is still listening and taking the "news" seriously has got to have a screw loose at this point since it's not just a lie, it is all an Obvious lie.

"How can you say that, people are dying, yes, DYING from the Covid Virus every day!"

Yep, but apparently they aren't dying of anything else yet death stalks us every day at every turn. You could find blood in your stool tomorrow morning. I'd bet the last thing that would enter your head after that would be if you were going to catch the fucking flu.

It's all been over sold and the lock-downs just an economic suicide attempt by the Leftist governors of the Leftist States of America. In a move reminiscent of the Old South, the LS of A have made their own move at Secession. And just like the antebellum South, they are desperately trying to hold onto their untenable and outmoded way of life, the life of Taxpayer Servitude, the new slaves of the Liberal wealth redistributors. In this world, nobody ever gets too much. What you earn, you do not own. Your money is theirs to dole out to whomever they deem downtrodden. Except you, you stupid shit, you just get to pay so shut up, sit down and keep pretending this is real.

The Mask as a Symbol of Oppression

The hoax of the virus is that it's so deadly that the whole world has to stop, that you have to not work and go on the Dole, that you have to stop living your life and instead be in fear of losing it.

You call this living?

And the weird thing is, nobody really believes it anymore. People are walking around with their masks on their chins because it's ridiculous. Why are people wearing masks out side? There is a family that must live on my block because I encounter them out walking way too often for my liking. I call them the Fear Family because when they encounter me on the sidewalk, knowing full well by now that I'm not going to move, will walk in a line out in the street. And when they do this, I sing my "Covid Song" at them:

"Living in fear! Everybody's living in fear!
Hold onto your life, oh what a fright.
Stay away from every one, this is the life!"

Those stupid, stupid people. Wearing masks outside in the fresh fucking air and going out of their way to avoid people on the God-damned sidewalk. Fear much?

Few people are dying of this. Take away the 82.5% of the deceased Massachusetts residents who were in nursing homes and  hardly anybody has died of this in the state. Nobody 20 and under has died.

"Oh, but people 20 and under HAVE died." the fearful will chorus but what does that mean? Someone, somewhere, in a nation of 300 plus million people, has died of this. What are the odds?

"You must watch quite a bit of television." I'll answer since it's the television watchers who are the most fearful and stupid people I've met since this bullshit started.

There was a woman in work who repeated the lie she heard on TV like it was the gospel, that children with not symptoms are the most likely to spread the disease. It was apparent to me that she was incapable of rational thought since all flues are spread by the most obvious symptom: coughing. If you ain't coughing, you ain't spreading the virus. The report was later rescinded but the damage was done.

It was all a big lie. Covid didn't stay alive on surfaces for 24 freakin' hours, didn't survive in the cold, people didn't have it for two weeks before they knew they had it, children, rather than being "carriers" rarely even got it and if you need a fucking test to tell you that you've got it, how sick are you really if you didn't already know?

How stupid you must feel. But you should be feeling angry at the politicians that tried putting this over on us.

The lie is that hardly anyone outside of a nursing home is dying of this yet the states are cracking down on business harder than ever. I have been getting my coffee at a local quick mart for the last six months where it's self-serve. After 6 months of this, the state has told them no more self-serve. They now have to pour people's coffee for them. Does that make sense?

None of this has made sense from the beginning. It's not about public health. It's about creating chaos. With mobs in the streets, the mayors and governors doing nothing about it, closing businesses and  basically refusing to take charge, chaos grows.

Riots Not Polling Well

Scaring Middle American has never been a winning strategy and the Political Left never seems to get that. Or it's that they are incapable of any other strategy since they don't actually have any ideas. The Obama brand of fatalist pessimism still permeates the Democratic Party. They've got nothing else to offer.

But now even the Democrats are getting uneasy. Not because of the riots and violence but at the Perception of the riots and violence. They seem to be concerned that people are seeing such things in a negative light. People aren't running to join the Anarchist Revolution, they are instead running out of the states where the Revolutionaries are going crazy with the looting and burning.

Bad optics, they're saying. But still not a finger lifted by state government to stop it.

Everywhere, No Money

The states who've locked down the most stand to lose a bundle. But no Federal funds will be coming their way most likely ever. Since Donald Trump will win in a landslide, he's not going to be writing checks to New York, California, Main, Rhode Island or Massachusetts period. The House and Senate will look different and there may be less will on their part to even talk about state bailouts.

No, no, the states are on their own and have lost billions to the point of half the state budget is not coming in by way of taxes. How long the governors think they can defy gravity is anybodies guess but at some point, someone is going to need to get their money and it won't be there. 

Then what? 

Mail-in Voter Fraud

Having the U.S. Postal Service administer a mass mail-in voter ballot-by-mail distribution project on a national level is like having your local Parks & Recreation Commission running the Mission to Mars.

As an alternative to this I suggest bringing back the Pony Express. Or perhaps we can implement Vote by Telegraph. THAT would be faster.

While the cash-strapped, massively debt-ridden, disorganized and antiquated postal service can still get a letter across the country for what amounts to a pittance, an email still beats them by four days, 23 hours & 58 seconds. While UPS and FedEx, two massive private enterprises run circles around them and make a profit, the U.S. Postal service hemorrhages money yearly by the Billions. Today USPS is just a massive, government-mandated money pit that has undergone cutbacks, austerity programs and reductions in workforce to try to stop the bleeding. 

This is the organization we are going to entrust to suddenly send millions of ballots to every registered voter in these United States? I’m always getting other people’s mail in my mailbox even though their mailboxes have their names clearly on them, can the rank and file postal service employee, mostly non-employee “casual” staff who are paid a lower salary than the regular carriers and have fewer benefits, care enough to even try? They have recently requested $25 Billion to pay for the delivery of the Mail-in Voting ballots but the Feds could give them $50 Billion and they're still not going to get the ballots delivered on time and there is nobody still connected to this organization that is happy. 

Rather than throwing good money after bad, the Federal government should finally allow the U.S. Postal Service to finally face the huge financial reckoning that should send it the way of the Dodo bird and the Dirigible. 

This is how this is going to turn out

Having heard the reports of people receiving mail-in ballots for people who last lived at particular addresses for up to 16 years, I can’t help but believe that the country is already being flooded with ballots. When these ballots are returned en mass, the local town and city clerks, who rely heavily on volunteers during votes, are going to have to verify each one. It is apparent that each municipality could potentially receive a much higher number of ballots in comparison to registered voters. The process of verifying these voters will drag on for a substantial period of time, not days. The ensuing chaos and lack of result will give incentive for the Leftist Media to declare old Joe Biden as the winner and start their screaming campaign for President Trump to immediately vacate the Whitehouse.  

Doubt me?

One doesn’t have to look far for an example. Take the state of New York’s 12^th Congressional District primary election. It took over a month to determine incumbent Representative Carolyn B. Maloney to win over challenger Suraj Patel in a race that saw 1 in 5 mail-in ballots or 20% of the approximately 65,000 votes cast, invalidated. This lead Mr. Patel to state “A 1 in 5 disenfranchisement rate is far too high for a developed democracy.”

And of course, this has now gone to the courts.

And this to me is actually what this is all about, the creation of potentially invalid votes aimed not to win an election but to throw the election into chaotic dispute, to make the outcome impossible to determine.

The 15^th and 16^th Congressional Districts also experienced the same delay and murky endings leading observers to speculate this obvious omen for the November election.

Not looking good if this is how the primaries are turning out.  

Undermining the Vote

The California Motor-Voter bill of 1993 was the first overt effort of the Left to undermine the vote. Conservatives have had a hard time there ever since. This was set up to insure that while you are getting your illegal drivers license, you can also register to vote. And as a result, a Republican presidential candidate hasn’t won California since the bill was implemented. Bill Clinton carried the state in 1992 and the Democrats have been dominant ever since. 

And it shows.

Constitution on the Ropes

Our democracy, already hanging by a thread and facing this latest “Attack of the Governors” who seem far too comfortable telling people what to do, where they can go, what to wear and determining what businesses are to succeed, balances on the precipice of a Totalitarian Regime.

But this time the threat doesn’t come from the Federal Government. This time it’s the Leftist state administrations that are driving the take-over and there seems to be little the Federal Government can do to counter this Economic Suicide mission they are on since the Governor’s don’t appear to care how much money they’re states are losing or how they ever hope to recover…after.

If there is an after.

The Anarchism of the American Left

Usually, Anarchism, by definition, is the desire and execution of far left elements of society to bring down governments in an anti-authoritarian revolt, to bring chaos due to a breakdown of government's ability to enforce its laws.

But what if your Anarchists ARE the government? What happens when they move to destroy their own states in an effort to destroy the over all economy and Federal government?

Well look no further!

The Leftists on the state level are exercising their own version of Anarchy by ignoring the Federal government and purposely sinking their state economies in an attempt to cripple the sitting President and exert jack-booted control of  all business in their domains.

This certainly turns the definition on it's head.

Understanding Anarchists 

Regular folks have a hard time understand how Anarchists think. Like Suicide Bombers, why would somebody destroy themselves just to get at someone else? If the state Governors crash their economies, wouldn't that hurt them and their supporters also?

Yes but...they don't care!

The goal is to reach the target. The costs will be only be weighed AFTER, win or lose. The point is to tear down, disrupt and destroy and if they are blown up in the turmoil they cause, well it will all be worth it in the end. To them, Martyrdom is a desirable achievement for the cause.

You, me, family, friends....all just collateral damage, means to an end. After all, this is War. Not for the hearts and minds of the people but for the fleeting opportunity to control them regardless if they want to be ruled or not.

Who thinks like that?

THEY do. And the sooner you figure it out, the better off we'll all be.

Crashing the States

How else can one explain the economic destruction being forced upon the United States by Leftist Governors like California's Gavin Newsom, Illinois's J.B. Pritzker, NJ Governor Phil Murphy, Connecticut's Ned Lamont, NY Governor Mario Cuomo, Gina Raimondo of Rhode Island and Massachusetts own Charlie Baker, who are closing businesses, giving orders, making demands and sending the Men with Guns after, not the criminal element, since the state courts are actually releasing convicted criminals back into society during this lock-down but sending them after ordinary taxpaying citizens.

This is for everybody, not just people who are at risk.

Is this for the Public Health?

Even if it saves JUST ONE LIFE, it'll all be worth it, won't it?

Well poverty has it's own health downside. And if people can't open their businesses, can't work, can't travel and if the hospitals are seeing nobody but people with the virus, we're going to have poverty.

So why would the Governors want to crash their own economies, it makes no sense.

Already told you, they don't care. All that matter is the goal.

Get Trump

The President can't run on the economy anymore, it's gone. The highest unemployment since the first Great Depression. The states are running record deficits, many even before this happened. Very little tax money coming in, hospitals laying people off and right now, I can confidently say that every town in the state of Massachusetts this week will be holding meetings about how many town employees they will have to furlough or lay off. The longer this goes on, the less and less there will be for everyone.

Still think this is to protect the populous from the Virus?

No Bailouts from the Feds

President Trump must stick to his guns about not rewarding this behavior and the chances are very good that no bailouts can even be possible before January since he has already vowed to veto bailout legislation. The Republican controlled Senate will not override a Presidential veto during an election year.

Should the Leftist opposition candidate, by some happenstance, prevail in November, they would not be able to write a check until they take office late January of 2021.

So...not gonna happen. The decision, should he actually sign such a bill, is the President's alone.

Square Yourself with God

We won't live forever and I for one am not interested in living like this. What an incredible waste of time it is running around being afraid you are going to die since, well, you're going to die, sooner or later. Most of us expect it to be later but we like to temp the Fates by seeing just what situations we can wriggle out of.

There is a daredevil in all of us, some more so and less so. Some people's idea of adventure may be hiking New Hampshire's Lafayette trail and for others, they aspire to jump out of a balloon at the world's highest edge with space. But each experiences the same thrill when they take that very first step.

After all, life is too short to live in fear.

Will Dr. Fauci Ever STFU?

"The only thing we have to fear is fear itself." - Franklin D. Roosevelt - 1933

"Run for the hills, everybody is gonna DIE!" - Dr. Anthony Fauci - 2020

"Ever get the feeling you've been cheated?" - Johnny Rotten - 1978
                                   

Rather than refer to the Corona Virus as his worst nightmare, Dr. Fauci has presented himself as the NATION'S worst nightmare.

As the country's top political fear merchant, Anthony Fauci is the worst kind of bureaucrat. A guy who has labored in obscurity for decades, sawing away at a job where nobody every heard his name and suddenly the President of the United States asks him his opinion on something and a camera turns on and he's suddenly everywhere at once. And what does he do?

He scares the BeJesus out of everybody to the point where the politically Leftist Governors get the idea to shut down the world's largest economy for 3 whole months.

And Fauci is still out there saying that it's just the beginning.

No, Dr. Fauci, it's the END!

Can somebody finally bring out the hook and get this LUNATIC off the stage? The country needs this guy like a hole in the head. Send him back to his office and quit asking him questions because you already know what "Dr. Death" is going to say; "This is going to be BAD! This will take YEARS to come out of! Better square yourself with GOD!"

Can't this guy just shut up? Hasn't he played politics enough with people's livelihoods?

The country has been crippled for years to come and it's all been one tremendous HOAX. Oh, the Virus is real but none of the information put out surrounding it has been right. The guy who said 2.2 Million people were going to die has been exposed as a fraud, The World Health Organization's information has been erratic at best and malicious at worst, the National Media seldom mentions details about who has died, where they died (like in a nursing home), how old they were and what their underlying conditions were. They've just counted numbers and those numbers too, are a lie.

We haven't heard about one Opiod overdose in three months. In a nation where 67,000 people died of drug overdoses last year, One quarter of the year goes by and nothing. They're all now dying of the Virus, right?

Now we're seeing thousands of looters and protesters looting and protesting in close quarters and no reported consequences. What's up with that? It's ok for them but YOU, shut up and stay home if you know what's good for you! Why is it that it always seems to be the criminal element that lives a freer lifestyle than the regular overly monitored citizen taxpayer? It makes no sense.

Fauci is a career government hack who has suddenly gained a forum and has joined his deep state comrades to put the entire nation into a tailspin and he's not done yet. The Leftist Media obviously loves him since they think this is actually hurting President Trump by creating chaos in the marketplace. But fear can quickly turn to resentment, especially when people discover they've been lied to. We'll just have to see how many people figure it out before November.

The cat is also out of the bag on how contagious the Virus is. Even though the WHO has been trying to walk it back, they said asymptomatic transmission of the Virus is rare. Combine this information with the total lie that a person could be asymptomatic for a full two weeks without knowing they had the Virus and one has to wonder just how stupid we all were to have believed word one about this considering the source of the information.

It's all been a big CON.

And here we still have some state Governors ignoring the new science because it conflicts with what they were trying to do in the first place, which was to crash their local economies to effect political change. They didn't give one Whit about public health or the science of the Virus. They have a mission to accomplish and facts and even their own careers seem to matter little in its execution.

That's just crazy.

But it's been a crazy political landscape for the last four years with one bullshit made-up attempt at the overthrow of the government and the Constitution after another. No plan is too extreme and no person too big to sacrifice.

And here too we get Dr. Wacko Fauci who admits "WE" don't know much about the Virus but in the next breath knows we're still at the beginning. Who is still believing this guy?

Turn this guy off. Turn off your television news, since that is your real problem if you think this is all being done for YOUR safety and the public health. If you haven't woken up to the con by now then there's nothing I can say to change things and you've just wasted 10 minutes of your life reading this far.

The coming economic strife will also effect your health but you won't be hearing Dr. Anthony Fauci talk about that while the camera is rolling.

You're on your own in that regard.

Bringing Our Troops Home

The United States has approximately 800 military bases spread out across the world in 70 countries which cost somewhere between $85 and $100 Billion dollars per year to operate and even more in a war zone. Some are quite large and others are merely just outposts but the cost is substantial and in many cases, no longer necessary.

Take the recent report that President Trump plans to withdraw 9,500 U.S. troops from Germany. They're upset about it because to the German government and the businesses located near the U.S. bases there, it's not about the loss of military protection, it's the loss of their consumer dollars.

When all those men and women in foreign bases get paid, they're gonna spend it in where they're stationed. That also includes the families of the service people living with them so the economic impact is greater than just the 9,500 troops.

Ultimately, we do not need a military base in Germany any longer. We don't need military bases in Italy, France, Afghanistan or Iraq either. If they speak ill of us, or want us out, we should leave and take our dough with us. Germany does not have a right or any claim to U.S. Taxpayer money. That money comes from the sweat of the brows of the U.S. citizenry and therefore should be spent with better discretion than keeps some other country's economy afloat.

Germany disparages President Trump while they kissed Barack Obama's ass and he was a waste product who did nothing, delivered nothing and with one exception, everything he's done has been reversed. Now we have someone in office with some backbone and they don't want to deal. So we don't have to deal either. See ya later, bye!

Stagnant Leadership

It is obvious that Angela Merkel has been around too long. Her tenure in office is approaching that of many Socialist Dictators. She has overseen a systemic stagnation where the only way she sees to solve a problem is to do more of the same. Instead of solving Germany's economic woes, she opens the borders. Instead of energy solutions, she doubles-down on more of the same; import, import, import. Both roads lead to a dead end.

Nothing is going to get any better over there until she is out of office. I thought letting in one million unmixable Muslims into the country would have been enough for someone to step to the fore to oust her but nope, they all just took it. That's when you know something is wrong. Perhaps they're just too trusting. Perhaps they've all swallowed that "my brother's keeper" bullshit.

Who knows? But it's not our fault and it's not our problem. If they don't like us, let's take our money and find something better to do with it than to keep Germany's drinking establishments afloat.

Germany's Need for Energy

Germany isn't nearly as Green as they make out to be. They need more oil. Germany's demand is the highest in the EU. They need more natural gas too. Germany is the world's 7th largest consumer of natural gas. I guess the solar panels and the wind turbines ain't cutting it.

So they make a deal with Russia. You remember Russia? The big Red Menace of Europe that our troops are in Germany to protect them from? Yes, THAT Russia. So now they are doing the Libertarian thing of turning a potential combatant into an economic ally. Nothing wrong with that. That is what we like to see.

But you don't need a foreign army to protect you from an economic ally. It's just that simple.

Hard Working Americans

Two weeks vacation. That says plenty. That's what most of us get. If you stay at a company for 5 years, you could get another week. After 10 years you may get 4 weeks off. A rare few places will offer 5 weeks after 15 years on the job. but that's the top end of it. For many small businesses, time off isn't even an option. We also have Over-Time. We all have worked over-time. That's extra. We get Time and a Half for each hour of overtime. For many, that's where the money for buying all our stupid stuff to make the world go around gets made. And have I mentioned all the taxes we pay?

Ultimately, we bust our BALLS for that money. We work longer hours than any industrialized nation. That includes Japan where the average Japanese worker will cram 8 hours of work into a 12 hour day such is the state of their economic incentive these days. The U.S. is the biggest economy because the people in the U.S. put in the most productive hours. There's no shortcut.

Bring Them All Home

It's time we empty out. Bring our troops home. Leave them in the tough spots like Taiwan and Japan but if there's no inherent danger like Germany, France and Italy, empty the place out. Out of Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan. Time to draw down our forces and stop fighting everyone's battles for them AND being their gravy train. It's more than just wasteful.

These deals we make aren't forever. We have been told that we are not the world's police and we should take that to heart. We certainly shouldn't be. Perhaps these countries would appreciate us a little bit more if we weren't there.

After all, they can't miss us if we won't go away.

Protesting vs Looting

In 1963 the late Reverend Martin Luther King organized a march on Washington DC, where he made his "I have a Dream" speech, to foster change in the United States. Louis Farrakhan organized a march on Washington DC in 1995, the so called Million Man March, to also elicit personal pride and change in the country.

Some say nothing much has happened to change things in this country since then.

I can see why marching on Washington isn't doing much to change things. Our Constitutional Government, by design, is geared for measured change. So it stands to reason that frustration can occur when groups, hungry for acceptance, decide it's better to take a shortcut.

But why, instead of marching to City Hall, The State House or head to Washington, do today's protesters head straight to the Mercantile Districts?

If a march on Washington isn't going to do it for you, I can't see the political advantage of tearing into an Apple Store or a Macy's Department Store. All I can get from this is that, rather than this being about the careless murder of a man by the callous police, it's about getting free stuff for yourself. In fact, it's ALL about YOU, isn't it?

Here in the city of Boston, last evenings "Protesters" marched right past the State House, where the State Legislature meets and where the Governor has his offices and headed instead down the street to nearby Downtown Crossing, where there are department stores, jewelry shops and other businesses big and small.

Why pick there to do your protesting?

Across the street from the State House is the famous Boston Common, which has been a traditional place to hold protests and rallies. The British garrison stationed on the Common, back when Boston was locked down and closed off by the British Empire following the Tea Party, watched Samuel Adams ride by on his way to the 2nd Continental Congress in Philadelphia to urge independence for the Colonies.

But this place too, was overlooked for the expression of the personal moral outrage felt by those marchers who only wanted to show their solidarity with the spirit of George Floyd, I'm sure. The city common is just not a suitable place to fully communicate their view on race relations in these United States circa 2020.

No, they have to go to the Shops!

This is where they can best be heard.

We just can't understand what it's like to be them! We can't walk in their shoes because we don't know, won't know, CAN'T possibly EVER know what it's like to be where they are at this very moment in their unrelenting grief.

Which at the moment is standing outside the window of the Shop & Save with a brick in their hand and a firebomb in their backpack.

"NOBODY knows how we FEEL!" they scream. "You racist, leave us alone to protest the only way we can to express our feelings."

"After all, they're only stores and shops, they're not people. They have insurance! So whats wrong with tearing them up? "

I've heard this lately from media people and Liberal politicians and it's unbelievable the lack of support for the people who risked their savings and put in the time to start a small business. Whole families depend on the income of many of these places and they all work there. With the taxes they pay, this is what they get? After being arbitrarily shut down and thrown out of work for 3 whole months, this is what they get?

Contrary to popular belief, it is the Small Businesses that drive employment in this country. Businesses that employ under 100 people employ the most people in the U.S. and not the big corporations. And between the bizarre shutting down of "non-essential" businesses and now the direct burning and looting attacks directed, not at the seats of government but at them, small business in this country is suddenly very much on the ropes.

This isn't an accident. This is by design to make sure the small businessman, a vulnerable pillar of our economy, is injured beyond repair. This is the double-whammy of being denied revenue combined with a guarantee of increased overhead because their insurance premiums will be going up, that is, if they're insured at all which many are not. It's not free money.

And once they're gone, who will risk taking their place?

Our local governors and mayors better wake up and drop the political game to stop this now.

This is not a protest and these are not protesters.

Time for the Governors to quit dragging their feet and open up the States already.

Let's get back to work!

Organized Anarchy in the U.S.A.

This is not your father's protest and 1968, this isn't. Oh, there's righteous anger alright and deservedly so but there is also something more.

With the well-funded professional Anarchist groups blending in and using the George Floyd protests as cover, we are seeing some well-organized and coordinated attacks. These groups have grown to the point where we are now seeing them able to throw big numbers of dedicated soldiers at the Walls of Government. And also, the Gates of the White House.

The protesters and looters just an anticipated and welcome distraction. Consider them momentary volunteers for The Cause, human battering-rams and shields to enable their forces to enter the Castle. These people aren't after toasters and televisions but they want the burning buildings, smashed police cars and beaten bodies to be on YOUR television. They want you afraid and, in regard to race, ashamed. That's the aim. That's how they plan to get you to jump through their hoop...like a trained circus animal.

So at this point in time, can we stop pretending this is a protest?

These groups, ANTIFA, which stands for Anti-Fascism, was established to combat Fascism and other forms of "extreme right-wing ideology". So what group do you think falls on the Right?

Conservatives spring to mind.

And "Extreme" is just a state of perception. One person's extremist is another person's Republican Senator, or Republican President for that matter.

But by their own definition, they are separate from the Right, so they must therefore fall somewhere else on the political spectrum. The Left perhaps, since they don't appear to be Moderates. And if they have shown up at these protests dressed in their uniforms of all-black with head scarves and incendiary devices in hand, then surely a case can be made that they fall somewhere on the FAR-Left.

Then there is Black Lives Matter. Who can dispute this? Nobody. And don't say "All Lives Matter" because now you're being insulting.

These are essentially the paid mobs of the Political Left, developed and organized over time into a stealthy fighting force that now has to be taken very seriously. We've seen them in action before, infiltrating college campus protests burning buildings and attacking when Conservative people speak.

These college attacks, one at UC Berkeley in California and another at Middlebury College in Vermont, both in 2017, were dress rehearsals and recruiting drives. Although quite serious, these relatively small-time operations also served as tactical lessons since in both instances, they got away cleanly and their targets were totally unprepared and left bewildered at the intensity and scale that was exhibited. And most notably, even their Leftist enablers in government were caught off-guard.

Clearly these were attacks of an unpredicted scale.

And here we are.

Now three years older, their young Generals and Lieutenants have matured and grown into their labors and planning. The Sargents and Foot Soldiers too, have drilled and learned their tactics to where they can perform them autonomously. With their recruitment goals met, their ideology and rhetoric set, they are ready for the national stage.

All they needed was a catalyst.

Unfortunately, these days it doesn't take long. After all these national incidents of outrage, how do you get the same thing happening over and over again so neatly framed for global broadcast? It boggles the mind.

The Micheal Brown shooting in Ferguson, MO, may have been contrived but there have been two clearly negligent killings of black people that have stood out in our most recent past; Eric Gardner in New York City, chocked to death by a policeman using an illegal hold while he was selling individual cigarettes to people on the sidewalk. And Freddie Gray in Baltimore, a troubled young man who, at the very least, was not protected from falling while cuffed behind his back in the police van where, it was said, he stuck his neck and died from his injuries.

So to discover yet another disconnected man-in-uniform capable of the very public and torturous death of George Floyd still on the city of Minneapolis's payroll is bizarre in itself. Why protect a potential liability like this? But this is not what the Brotherhood of Uniformed Policemen think. They just think "Protect Their Own".

And that ain't YOU, brother!

And this bullshit about "if you can speak, you can breathe..." had nothing to do with it. The artery that carries blood to your head is on the side of your neck and having someone's knee there to stop the flow of blood will kill you. And if these people had "underlying health conditions" perhaps the arresting officer should have taken a look at someone like, say, the 400 lb. Eric Gardner and thought "Gee, maybe if I do this, I could kill him?"

Ya think?

According to the last study I saw, just under 40 people are killed every year after being Tazer-ed and nobody seems to care about that.

So the latest match has been lit and the fires for the Summer of 2020 have been started heading into the November elections. Will we see these same "protests" come to the national conventions? I think that would be a sound bet. This is going to be kept going along with the obviously political Covid-19 lock-downs and the economic havoc they are causing all the way to the November elections. That looks like the plan anyway.

It will be important for these lock-downs to end immediately and for people to get back to work and try to salvage their livelihoods. Too many idle hands have made this whole situation worse. It's time for the Leftist Governors call off the game and to end this self-destruction as of yesterday.

Just where and how far they are all willing to go just keeps getting more outrageous with each passing day. Do they really think they will be able to turn this all off like a switch even if their candidate wins?

And what if they can't?

Obama Finally Gets His Scandal

And it's the biggest one we know of in the recent history of the United States!

I guess it was worth waiting for.

Yes, the 8 year historic reign of Mr. Obama who touted that his was the only incumbency that was scandal free, has now issued forth an epic tale of skulduggery. The level of underhandedness, straight-faced lies and judicial complicity that was undertaken by the Obama administration to undermine the 2016 Presidential election and turn it into a victory for Hillary Clinton was at a level that would make both J. Edgar Hoover and Nikita Khrushtchev green with envy. But while they may have referred to these acts of subterfuge as "business as usual", we will henceforth call it what it is:

Treason.

How else can you explain it? Ordering the FBI to tap the phone lines of the Presidential nominee of the opposition party, then giving that information to their party's nominee, then leaking other inside information to a willing and enabling press corps to cause scandal and disorganize that person's campaign. That would be, to clarify, Donald Trump, now President.

This, unlike all the other non-scandals that didn't happen in the Obama White House, just might qualify. After all, mounting a Coup d'etat to preserve the linear Progressive power structure should add the needed criminality to surpass the past misdeeds of past Presidents that all appear so much smaller now.

So, after coming so close during his American stewardship, this should put President Obama and his corrupt Administration over the top. Other scandal candidates include:

IRS Targets Conservative Groups - Not a Scandal!

How about the IRS under President Obama going after groups that

Groups with names that included terms like "Tea Party" or "Patriots" were subject to increased scrutiny and not given tax exempt status as allowed for political groups under IRS guidelines. They were asked for donor lists, details of their on-line content and information about family members. All while other "less-than-conservative" groups were given express service.

Doesn't count, says the American Media!

Gun Walking - Not Scandalous!

The infamous Gun Walking (aka Fast & Furious) plan, lead by a person totally loyal to the cause but certainly not smart enough to come up with the plan on his own, Obama's then Attorney General Eric Holder, had administration agents allowing American-made, high-powered armaments to be sold across our boarder with Mexico to the the very drug cartels our boarder agents were in conflict with. This was done to undermine the gun rights of the American citizen but instead resulted in the killing of boarder agent Brian Terry and hundreds of innocent Mexican citizens.

But that was not a scandal in the eyes of the American Media. They still touted that the Obama Administration as Scandal Free!

Not Anymore

Well that's over.

The phony Plan A and now the phony Plan B, the Russia, Russia, Russia, collusion effort has all been proven to be a hoax, a stall and yes, a crime.

It's all about Get Trump and the biggest enemies of the People that he is battling are in his own government and the Anti-Constitutional agents of our future oppression. Oh, you can be as free as you want to be...just as long as THEY get to call the shots and continue to raid the U.S. Treasury and skim their take of the money from the U.S. Taxpayer.

Can Someone Finally Go to Jail? 

Can someone finally get arrested for this stuff? Somebody? Anybody? How can these people just be walking around and getting television commentary jobs and writing books? Is there no downside to trying to overthrow the government anymore?

Take the FBI - Federal Bureau of Instigation, with Director James Comey and Deputy Director Andrew McCabe. Can't we send these people to jail? It's their names on the line approving the phony investigation. A very public trial is in order. Somebody please get on that, won't you?

And how about former CIA Director John Brennan? The suppression of evidence is a crime. That's what he did. He also said in his reports that Russia was interfering in the 2016 election to boost Donald Trump. A total fabrication. Can't someone find a nice cell for this Deep State operative?

Then there are those two star-crossed conspiratorial love birds, Peter Strzok and Lisa Page? Surely at least they can be scape-goated to save the others.

So many more to add but it's tiresome to think of the volume of Left Wing Revolutionaries that have conspired to steal the vote, railroad the innocent and sabotage the nation for their own gain. Until some of these Keystone Cops go to jail, this scenario will only repeat in the future.

The American Media

While we're at it, can we just forget about the concept of "The Media Got it Wrong"? They haven't gotten anything wrong. They are in on the CON. The American Media isn't working for the Deep State, they ARE the Deeps State. They are just the Propaganda Wing. I don't know why anybody listens to them, watches them or pays any attention to what they say. Ditto for the so called Conservative media outlets. There is nothing to be believed from either of them. They are all cut from the same cloth. They're all con artists.

Trust your own instincts, you'll be better off.

Our Constitutional Government

The Ghost of Benjamin Franklin and his warning should dominate our minds: "Here's your Republic...if you can keep it."

The framers of the U.S. Constitution weren't a bunch of powder-wigged fools from a bygone age. They were the most successful and educated people of the age and they lived in a time of Imperial rule and wanted to protect future generations from Kings and Dictators. That was the plan anyway.

And so far, for the most part, this system still manages to work which the 2016 election has confirmed, at least in my eyes.

There is a "push-pull" inherent in this system where each party has enjoyed an equal opportunity at governance under the law. Today we see two major and ideologically separate parties vying for governance. Historically, a swing too far to the Left has in the past resulted in a equalizing swing to the Right and so both these parties have played a roll in the governing of the country.

The Obama administration is the first one that has been so blatantly caught red-handed attempting to change this push-pull dynamic to a Putch.

And one certainly gets the feeling that this time around the Political Left felt that they were VERY close to finally taking control of the election process in 2016. Hillary Clinton would certainly have set about finishing the work that G.W. Bush and Barack Obama had laid for her and secured access to the Federal Government for the Leftist Progressives for who knows how long.

Judging by the bizarre, transparent and incomprehensible reactions of the U.S. Media and the high crimes committed by planted agents of the Left in our government since the election of Donald Trump, one has to draw the conclusion that some long-laid plans by these Dictators-in-waiting were shot to hell in the last election.

As the late, great, Fats Domino used to say, "Ain't that a shame."

No More Bailouts Mr. President!

It's the Liberal State Governor's who've decided to scrap the U.S. Constitution, exert executive privilege and nuke their local economies with just a wave of the hand. These acts should not expect a reward.

Corporations big and small are receiving federal funds. The hospitals and state unemployment offices are also receiving federal funds...until July. But unemployment insurance funds won't cover the damage being wrought by these illegal shutdowns. Independent enterprise is being destroyed. If you are drawing a paycheck, your views are vastly different from those people who are NOT drawing a paycheck.

Bloated State Pension Contracts

It's a well known secret that many states, the Liberal States, have sold the taxpayer down the river with their incredible benefits hand-outs to their state workers. Over the years, due to declining tax revenues, the states have not kept up with their funding obligations, sending less money than required to fund the retirement funds these contracts require. Subsequently, most, if not all of these pension funds are WAY in the red.

The Federal Government is not and should not be responsible for this lack of fiscal responsibility. It's all fun and games in "Other People's Money-Land" until the well runs dry.

And here we are.

It's not like the Feds don't have a few fiscal responsibility issues of their own. Our future generations will pay dearly if this problem isn't addressed.

A Great Opportunity

This is a great opportunity to actually rectify the situation. It has been suggested by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to allow the states to file for bankruptcy. This will force them to go back and either re-negotiate these pension deals or render them void. There will be much political fallout to be sure but the problem will no longer be ignored.

If the states, in what increasing looks to be like less concerned with public health and more concerned with politics, want to crash their economies then the responsibility for repair falls to them.

Unsustainable Lock-down

I live in Massachusetts and our Liberal Governor, Charlie Baker, has determined that the lock-down will continue until May 18th. If Mr. Baker thinks he will reap political hay by crushing the livelihoods along with their Constitutional rights, he should think again. The consequences or his criminal acts will reverberate long after November. It'll take years to recover for some, never for others.

How the American people will view one of the major players in destroying the national economy is open to interpretation but I'm going to guess it won't be viewed favorably. I could be wrong since I'm mostly appalled by how my local town's citizenry have taken this all lying down.

Living in Fear

I'm here to tell you, you are going to DIE! As Hank Williams once sang, "No matter how I struggle and strive, I'll never get out of this world alive." And he should know, he died at age 27. So we're all gonna DIE!

But not today and not tomorrow. Please try to stay optimistic about that. Staying shut in the house, not going anywhere and jumping out of the way of people on the sidewalk IS NOT LIVING.

Right now, statistically, you have better odds of dying from the regular flu. That's right. You are not getting access to all the information. And if it wasn't for NYC's numbers, one would be hard pressed to say this Virus has had a more than average impact upon the nations annual flu-related mortality rate of 35,000 to 60,000 deaths per year. That's right.

Which leads me to another issue I have with all of this fear-mongering. Every year in this country approximately 35,000 people are killed in motor vehicle accidents, many horribly, and the multitudes horrendously injured defy description. Yet nobody seems compelled to slow down. They fearlessly barrel down the local streets and highways 20 mph over the speed limit. And when they callously and fatally run someone down, there they are crying in court "I didn't mean to do it!".

So why all of a sudden are people wearing masks outside (useless), treating people around them like Lepers and believing what the Governor says is the Law and Gospel?

I swear I don't recognize this place anymore.

The Truth About NYC

New York City is the biggest Welfare State in these United States. Their Elderly Services programs are the biggest and costliest in the nation. They offer extensive services to the elderly of low-means such as free housing, free food, assistance accessing Federal and State service health programs like Medicare, Medicaid and PACE. There are also numerous non-profit and faith-based organizations there that also provide assistance. New York City is sort of a Welfare Magnet for the elderly. So they have a boat-load of really old people not in very good shape, to be frank. A walk through the city will reveal the extent of it. There are huge high-rise elderly housing complexes and people brandishing their walkers dominate the sidewalks, everyone is living on top of each other.

The nursing home system in NYC, in accordance with it's size, is equally extensive and have turned out to be the flash point for the city's disproportionate Virus mortality rate, now up to 17,638 as of this writing.

So what does NY Governor Mario Cuomo do? Knowing that the elderly are the most susceptible to the Virus, he personally mandated the state nursing homes accept elderly applicants that are confirmed Corona Virus positive! Still wondering why the numbers are high there?

You will think I've made this up and I don't blame you.

The Politics of it All

It is unbelievably extreme to lock down the country for the flu. Listening to the Media go after President Trump during his press updates tells a tail of their concerted efforts to blame him for the Virus response. Add to it the new lock-down extensions of the state Governors where even the state of Maine, with only 1,040 cases in total and 51 deaths, is now locked down into May.

This is crazy. Our nation is currently $23 Trillion (I've also seen $ 26 T) so writing more checks isn't going to improve things. We're just printing money with no production behind it so  throwing more paper at the states, especially since they're doing this on purpose, makes no sense. If the states continue receiving federal funds, they'll never open up.

Let the chips fall for the lock-down states. It'll be open up or crash and burn. I also hope that all these businesses sue the state once the courts are re-opened.

Judgement awaits.

Media Spreading Virus Fear

Turn on the Television: Death!

Turn on the Radio: Death!

Listen to the news conferences, what are the reporters saying?

"Mr. President, what can you say to the people who are going to DIE!"

Are you kidding me? Who says things like that? Crazy people, that's who. Members of the National Media. Talking like the Virus is a virtual death sentence. You get it, you die!

Dead, you, now, it's over!

It's not a death sentence. Far from it. Yes, people are dying from it but the longer this goes on, the more people like myself are suspecting that there are other motivations behind the news beyond the concerns for public safety. The numbers just aren't adding up.

Governors Shut State Economies

Although by law it is supposed to take an act of the legislature, the Governors of many states have simply closed almost all businesses in their states with a wave of their hand.

California Governor Gavin Newsom, Mario Cuomo of New York, Gina Raimondo of Rhode Island and here in Massachusetts, Governor Charlie Baker have all crashed their state's economies in an effort to contain the virus. Well, I hope it's worth it because poverty has it's own health consequences, lots of them. Will there be someone keeping track of that?

Whether you believe Self-Isolation works or if you are a fan of Herd Immunity, you've gotta admit that what is going on is over-the-top extreme to shut everything down in the states for over 2 months and counting. No sales, no taxes, no demand and no income.

But the bills, they're still out there.

My landlord has yet to call me saying not to worry about anything and I'll bet the phone hasn't rung for many of these business owners either. Deferring the payments isn't going to help since they aren't going to actually go away. But their income has and it may not be coming back. And if it does, chances are they won't be able to cover the loses. But we won't know for a few months down the road if they ever free us up from these open-air prisons we're living in.

I don't have the time or the fortitude to list how all this shit is rolling downhill. From leases, to lien-holders to banks to tax revenue, liability insurance, auto and homes sales...don't get me started. But it all has to get paid back.

The names of these Governors will live in infamy if they don't get off their political high-horses and get people back to work sooner than later. If it goes on past May, who knows where they expect to get the money to cover the public service payrolls. Or will they actually cut the state budgets? They can't get the money out of all the private-sector unemployed they created. Good luck trying.

Invoking Science!

When someone says, "Listen to the Science!" or "People aren't listening to the Science!" I know that they are trying to pull the wool over my eyes. There's nothing to believe about science these days. There's always a political or monetary motivation behind the lions-share of scientific reporting that there's really no relying upon any of it for truth. Scientists have been caught cheating and colluding to "fix the problems" with their findings. We were better off with the Alchemists.

So when these knuckle-heads predicted 2.2 million people dead, 200,000 in the U.S, how on God's Green Earth can you believe this in the first place? How stupid are you? You're obviously being PLAYED!

And yet people just jump through the hoop every time the Media holds it out for them. Like circus animals. They're out there right now thinking wearing a mask is going to help, waging a finger at you for not "Social Distancing" like some Virus Nazi, or they leap off the sidewalk into the street when they encounter someone walking in their direction. Like if they do catch the Virus they'll say, "Perhaps I got it from that guy I passed on the sidewalk last week?".

Turn off the television you stupid twit, you'll feel a whole lot better.

And when this is over and the truth comes out, and it will come out, there are going to be quite a lot of people who should be totally ashamed of themselves and their behavior.

I said SHOULD be ashamed of themselves since we all know many of these people do this sort of thing all the time for a living and so it's just a job to them. Nothing personal. The others will just rationalize it all away until something else comes along to make people look in a different direction. (Cue the Water-skiing Squirrel!).

Depending on Government

Since the closing of the state businesses and the calling for bailouts, the Governors have forced President Trump into becoming FDR, to a point. The Feds were already running $26 Trillion in deficits before this happened so there's no money there either. They will have to print it if they want to hand it out. It won't matter how much they print, it won't be enough to cover the damage done.

Mitch McConnell came up with a great idea, to let the states file for bankruptcy. That drew howls from the Governors since that's the signal that it's time to open up their economies because the Feds will not be writing checks to bail them out. They don't like the idea because should they file for bankruptcy, that will void all the municipal union and public pension contracts and they would all have to renegotiated and, most likely, adjusted downward.

Time to open things up or face the music, Guv'nor.

The American Diet

The studies coming out of New York City in regards to the 12,000 plus people who have been counted to have died of the Virus, 89% of them had other life-threatening conditions including coronary artery disease, hypertension, obesity and diabetes. The two studies I read pointed squarely to the American diet of takeout-food, high-fat, high-salt and high-calories combined with a sedentary lifestyle. This explains why Japan, with the worlds oldest population, doesn't come close to the numbers of NYC alone never mind the whole country. Even though they smoke like chimneys and drink like fishes, they don't eat like crap! Very little fat in the Japanese diet and they aren't that into sweets either.

Living in Fear

Yes, pneumatic flu is a danger. It seems to ignore most but some people get it bad. And if you get it bad, you could die from it, like dozens of other things you could die from any time.

Do you really want to live this way? Do your really think this is a new normal? I don't. The sooner we get out there and start living, the sooner the virus will disappear. I am not going to live this way. I refuse. I resent the Governors destroying my livelihood by royal decree and becoming a law unto themselves for whatever the motivation. I think it's political frankly, and it stinks.

Time to give up the charade and get back to work. This is now not a crisis of epidemic but a crisis of government. The Virus didn't close down all the businesses, President Trump didn't close down all the businesses. The Governors, THEY closed down all the businesses.

Nobody should forget this.

Joe Biden for President

This is amounting to Elder Abuse.

It's pretty obvious to anyone even partially paying attention that "Old Joe" has gotten a bit too old. And in their desperate bid to hound President Donald Trump out of office, the Democratic party is all too willing to throw this addled old man out in front of the world to ultimately publicly go off the rails.

It's kind of heartless if you think about it for a minute.

Joe Biden won't be able to do the job. The Biden Whitehouse, Heaven forbid, would be run by a shadowy committee of unelected "advisers" and Jill Biden.

The enabling media is going out of their way to limit access to the gaffs but they're all coming through because, let's face it, they're happening every time Joe Biden opens his mouth.

It's a sad state of affairs that the Democratic National Committee, in it's efforts to avoid a national referendum on Communism vs. Capitalism, would rather put up a man who is just not capable of debate or cognitive communication. It's actually unreal. And it could be a really sad spectacle should Joe be left one-on-one in a debate with President Trump, which would be inevitable should this charade continue. 

Capitalism vs. Communism 

It's almost funny that after 16 years as a House representative and then 13 years as a Senator, the DNC has suddenly realized that Sanders is a...choke...Communist!

That's right, he was ok enough when they screwed him over royally in 2016 but after whatever promises they made him then, it seems it's all forgotten now. The Democratic party is out to Get Bernie!

And they're doing almost too go of a job. If they should stop and consider that they're putting all their money on a man who can't function, their alienation of Bernie Sanders could come back to haunt them.

So again the American people, just as in 2016, are cheated out of a chance at the ultimate voting opportunity: Capitalism vs. Communism. This is just what the DNC doesn't want.

It is plain to see that the Democrats don't want this out on the table for a vote. They instead prefer to sneak their Socialist ideology into Congressional bills and through Judicial decisions. An outright vote will never do since given the chance, nobody would legitimately vote for their own demise.

It is in the Courts where the Democrats foist their wealth transfers and  vote-buying social give-a-ways on the American public since they can't win a straight up vote on such policies.

A Third Party Run?

But would Bernie Sanders even have the balls to do it? He has yet to demonstrate that he has.

I laughed out loud at the criticism Hillary Clinton had for Bernie. She said that Bernie had cost her the Presidency because he HESITATED before he finally endorsed her for president. Talk about living in denial!

First Hillary, Debbie Wasserman-Shultz and others in the DNC conspire to screw Sanders and all those idealistic people who busted their behinds on his campaign, out of the 2016 Democratic nomination and then wonder aloud why he "hesitated" to put in a good word for them! That's rich even for Washington politics.

What Bernie Sanders should have done then and should do now is show how he feels about all the support he's gotten from the Democratic party and run as an Independent Candidate or the Presidency. Why the hell not? His supporters aren't going to vote for Biden anyway, they're just going to stay home. Bernie might as well give the people who believed in him a chance to do what the Democratic National Committee has twice denied them; A chance to vote for Bernie for President.

It will also give the country a chance to vote definitively (for now) on which ideology they want the country to follow. It's a fair thing to ask.

What has Bernie Sanders got to lose now?

Nothing.
