Inflation : Bad for Folks; Good for US Government

Posted in Lawyers and Representation, Politcal Opinion by

I’m not writing anything new. Most everyone knows it. I’m just, so to speak, putting it in one box. How-some-ever, I am sure I will leave at least 1 thing out, maybe 2.

First bad for folks:

  1. Increase in cost of living, for example, fuel, food, utilities and autos. I am sure you can add a few.
  2. Increased interst rates. This adds to the cost of just almost everything.
  3. Loss of value of savings. If you have a 1000 dollar savings account, it gains value by the bank interest while losing value by the rate of inflation. Bank int=3%. Inflation rate=6%. Annual Loss in value 3%. On the other hand, if you just hide the money in your mattress, the value will decrease at 6%. If you stuffed 1000 in that mattress, you’ll have to stuff an additional $60 a year into that mattress just to maintain the value.
  4. It eats into earnings. Assuming a 6% inflation, you will need greater than a 6% increase in earnings to maintain value of earnings. Bear in mind, with greater income, your income tax will also increase. Hope the company you work for provides healthy raises.
  5. Finally, saddest of all. Those who have set retirement payments will have the buying power of those payments dwindle. In just a short time, he or she will have to struggle just to pay the landlord. Indeed, some older folks have gotten the boot, primarily because of inflation. Moreover, don’t get the idea that Social Security COLA increases keep up with true inflation. COLAs don’t take many things into consideration. I virtually live off Social Security. I know.

Secondly, consider the benefits to government

  1. Increase in revenues due to greater incomes and number of people in higher brackets.
  2. Debts incurred by the government are repaid by lower value dollar values. Considering $1000 of 10 year bonds will be repayed with, per se, $800 dollars value. Generally speaking the interest on federal bonds is far less than the inflation rates. Hence, buying federal bonds might be more secure than that mattress, but it’s not much better on the return, either.
  3. Ironically, it “increases” the value of the gold reserves. However, this is really an error in perception. The value of the gold remains relatively constant. The paper, on the other hand, is worth less.

Those Who Took The Oath

The investigation is done, it concludes that Trump did nothing wrong. That means those who took an oath to enforce the law, namely, the leaders in the FBI and other federal agencies were the ones who knowingly did great wrong.

It also verified that many of the dem congregational leadership intentionaly used their office to promote lies, of course, with the aid of the media and social media.

Now, now that it is all over, the only people that are suffering are those who did nothing wrong. Indeed, some have even spent time in prison wrongly. Certainly Joe and his friends had their part in it all.

They know that they have gotten away with it. However, be sure God will avenge.

Hasn’t Anyone Noticed?

Someone, anyone becomes a key person in the conservative world and, suddenly, all sorts of people, women come out of the woodwork claiming sexual abuse and rape.

It wasn’t until Trump became president that he was accused, what by three or four women. I guess there would have been more if they could have found a few more to lie for them.

It wasn’t until Bill Cosby started telling Black men to be responsible and stop abandoning their families that he was accused. I’m not trying to say that what he did was right. It just is the accusations certainly were not immediate, were they? Just maybe the accusers were financially encouraged?

The most ridiculous one was the Supreme Court nominee Brett M. Kavanaugh. I mean the woman did not remember when or where. However, the dems insisted that everyone believe the woman’s story from his youth. Really. How many could ever come up with an alibi for something 10 years ago, let alone the time in this case. It’s why some crimes have time limits (statute of limitations) on them. Sometimes things can’t be remembered. Sometimes, witness are no longer living.

Let’s, please not forget Justice Clarence Thomas. According to the dems, he was guilty before they could figure anything he might be guilty of. He had a big target painted on him the instant he might be selected. I remember. I was one of those who watched the proceedings back then.

Incidentally, does anyone remember the admitted lies told by Obama about healthcare? I do. I remind others every time I get a chance. The dems would like us to forget his intentional dishonesty. (That is to say he lied to deceive.) Not illegal as it was not under oath. He just lied to us, the American folks. You know; you and me.

It would seem that any Republican thinking of running for or accepting a position in government, any person thinking of making a public conservative statement, or anyone, just anyone who might oppose the dems, maybe they should make sure they are innocent from birth. Moreover, they better be ready to prove it.

On the other hand, those wanting to support the dems, maybe not so much. Consider Teddy and the drowning of Mary Jo? Consider ol’ Bill and sex in the oval office as well as those who accused him of rape. They have Ds after their names. I mean, let’s let them do what they want. Oh, and by the way, do you happen to remember that Bill was convicted of a real current crime, lying under oath. All of us know, when someone guilty of perjury cannot be trusted on in any other point. That’s sort of a legal thing. Yet the dems are ready to believe, forgive and forget his recent past. It is sort of a memory of convenience.

Frequently Asked Questions

Posted in Abortions, Abuse of Power, Being woke, Biden, Bribes, Christian values, Education, Elections, Lawyers and Representation, Politcal Opinion, Schools by

On the subject of Frequently Asked Questions, I have this to say.  Are they truly frequently asked?  Out of all the times I have ever consulted frequently asked questions, I never found the one for which I needed an answer.  Worse yet, I could never find a category.  They always list 4, 5 or 6 categories, then “Other.”  Then when I look under other, I can’t find my question there either.  Not a thing comes close.

I guess that either makes me weird or their questions aren’t as inclusive as they would like to imply.  Moreover, it would seem that I am mostly on my own.  Frequently, I actually figure things out, though it takes some time.  On the other hand, I just tried to install a product that should have not taken over 3 hours to install.  I gave up after 16.  I don’t need any piece of software that I can’t install after 16 hours.  Moreover, it was also difficult to de-install.  Moreover, it was difficult to use.

Taught me a lesson or two.  Next time I am going to install something, I will make sure to mark the spot so I can return to whence I came.  Even that brings me angst.  I have not yet established much trust in the ability of the software that can restore that well.

Be that as I may, the whole thing prompted a thought.  Maybe the US government could establish a frequently asked question web site.  I’m not suggesting it would help much but it would be interesting just what questions they would post and what kind of answers they would concoct, for instance, “What is a woman?”

God’s law was clear, “Though shalt not murder.”  Simple.  Requires little in the way of explanation.  On the other hand, the government at every level has pages and pages on the subject.  Can you imagine querying murder on frequently asked questions?  Did you say you have a day or two to read the reply?

How about something on the subject of abortion.  No problem for the dems…any time, any place, by someone with an MD after his name.  No follow-up exam necessary.

Then, there is the matter of theft.  All you can get away with as long it has a value of less than a grand.  And, by the way, if someone stops you, you can sue their socks off, and get them too.

Contrary to the commandment, we are not to honor our parents.  The job of parenting has been turned over to the daycares, schools and colleges.  In short the government.  By the way, we’d better not forget it or the FBI will be after us.

Incidentally, if we ask who should be in control, it’s the dems.  We best not forget that either or we will be tossed in the hoosegow and we’ll not see the light of day for years, if ever.

I guess it would be a bad idea to look for that on the FAQ list.  They will look for you and prohibit you from publishing a book, being on TV or radio.  Your name will instantly be mud, perhaps literally.

Incidentally, lest I forget, bribes too are wrong, even the ones that are completely legal. The Bible does make that perfectly clear. You wouldn’t doubt what this had you read the entire Bible. It really is in there, plain and simple to see for all. It says something about the way bribes cloud judgement. I am sure that is indisputable, even if you do not believe what is written.

How Much is Enough?

Posted in Abuse of Power, Biden, Bribes, FOC, Important things, Lawyers and Representation, Liberals, Lobbyists, Obama, Politcal Opinion by

I once had a hope of having a million dollars… at which time I would retire and never again work. To be sure, 10 millions wouldn’t last some more than a week. I suppose there are a few people who spend more than a million dollars in a day and think little or nothing of it.

It prompts the question, just how much is enough?

At one time, I actually had hopes of approaching the million dollars but then came Obama care. That soaked the funds out of my savings about 10 times faster than I could replenish it. I thought I had enough. Suddenly I was begnning to think I would have to work 10 years beyond my death.

There was a comedian who said it well. “I’m not selfish. All I need is enough to pay for all I need and all I want.” I guess the definition of all we want varies vary much. Moreover, some people don’t even make enough for their needs, let alone what they want.

There are many who ask if this is right. They think if we just take money from those who have more than enough for their needs and many of thier wants and give it to those who don’t have enough for their needs, it would make the world into a utopia.

Those who think that way simply don’t live in the real world. Their reasoning has been blinded by their idealism. Moreover, they started handing out cell phones to people who don’t need them. Believe it or not, cell phones are not necessities. A person can easily survive without them. Yet, socialists called them a basic need and took money away from those like me. In order to get my cell phone, I had to give up other things.

Then again, Obama and his friends had no interest in me. I was paying my way, plus a huge 1000 dollar a month health insurance premium. I never was rich and it seems the dems are determined to keep me from it.

Which actually brings me to my point. The wealthy are wealthy and are likely to remain so, due to the laws written by the friends of criminals and of course the wealthy bribing, aka lobbying, aka payoffs. Also, those not wealthy are likely to remain, as me, not wealthy. They don’t want the likes of me joining those with big bank accounts.

It seems, in reality, the government has a really hard time determining what is enough, that is to say, the difference between needs, wants and outright freebies. In addition, they don’t seem to know the difference between those down on their luck and the folks with their hands out.

If the truth be told, the FOC are not out to help the poor but rather themselves. They know that out of every dollar going through government control, some of it indirectly remains in the hands of the legislators and those who provide the payoffs aka lobbyist. It is why poor legislators become rich without any other apparent income other than the checks they draw in exchange for supposedly representing us.

QUESTION: Just what does the word lobby, as in large room, have to with bribes, as in payoffs.

NY, NY

President Trump was just indicted by a New York not so grand jury. This says far more about New York, New York than it does about President Trump. It states volumes about the prosecutor and it speaks volumes about the people of New York, New York.

By the way, it might also explain why folks are leaving the state by the hundreds of thousands, especially from the City of New York. Moreover, it will give the city and the state a black eye for as long long as they might remain.

I am a native of California and every day I become more ashamed of it. Just maybe those who come from New York will go well out of their way to keep us from knowing it. Then again, what do I know? They just might be foolish enough to be proud of their city, their prosecutor and their state. The folks up there will never fail to amaze me. Those people up there aren’t just nuts. They’re crazy nuts.

Unwinnable

Posted in Abuse of Power, Biden, Communism, Deceit, experience, Politcal Opinion, Truth, Vietnam war by

Over time, I’ve come to the conclusion that the US will never win another war. The reason is more than clear. We have forgotten how to fight to win. That makes it logical that we cannot win if we continue to fight only enough to keep from losing.

Then, over time, we inevitably tire of the fight and we lose. More accurately, we give up and withdraw.

When we went into Iraq, it was said we learned the lesson of Vietnam. Yet, about 10 years later, we abandoned the Iraq people and watched the massive killing of over a million. We did even worse in Afghanistan.

How much worse can we do? I think we are going to find out soon.

Criminals Will Always Have Weapons

Even if nothing more than slings, bad people will will always have weapons and they will always do bad things. It is why I keep saying that we need to keep them locked up, that is to say the criminals, not the weapons.

Lest you get the wrong idea, slings can be very dangerous. Moreover, slings don’t have serial numbers. They lack lans & grooves, which might be used to ID the slinger. Be that as it may, criminals can steal, smuggle or even build weapons including guns. Strange as it may seem, some criminal types are also geniuses.

Maybe the ammo would be a little more difficult but men have been making guns and ammo for 6 or 7 hundred years. It’s not that hard, especially with a good machine shop. How many chemists know the secrets of good gun powder and are ready and willing to make it for the right price.

So. You take the guns away from good law abiding citizens. The military will have guns. The police will have guns. The criminals will have guns. The rest of us, I guess will have to live behind bars to stay safe.

Sort-of reverses things doesn’t it? While we hide in our private fortresses, the criminals rome free. Could it be that it’s what the dems want?

Speaking of criminals. You notice Fauci has a book deal. Seems to me there is a law against criminals profiting from their criminal efforts. Just goes to show, laws that aren’t enforced are pointless. It’s sort of like trying to take the guns from criminals. Just not going to happen.

The winners of the gun laws will be the criminals.

Incidentally, did you hear the latest from the World Health Organization? Seems they finally figured it out. They no longer recommend shots for healthy youth. Wonder just who told the WHO.

Another Reason to Leave Michigan

Posted in Abuse of Power, Communism, Controllers, Elections, FOC, Lawyers and Representation, Politcal Opinion, Socialists, Unions by

If not for the biting cold and deep snow, the Michigan government has given yet another reason to leave the state. It seems they saw fit to repeal the right to work law.

For those who don’t know, this just gave the unions a lot more power and it forces Republicans to give to the Democrat party and dem candidates. Now, is that right? Of course not. Does that bother the dems? Of course not.

My suspicion is that the dems are cheering. They just managed to again twist the election process.

By the way, they also took a little freedom from the little guy. Then again, that is the specialty of dems, taking freedoms… bit by bit, little by little.

Tell me. Is it better to lose your freedom bit by bit or all at once. Seems to me, in the end, there is no difference.

Innocent Until Proven Guilty

It is a common phrase in this country, though frequently not practiced.

Technically, people who have been arrested, accused, indicted or even put in jail are not guilty until they are convicted in a court. Moreover, even should a person pay a blackmail, it doesn’t make him (or her) guilty. At most, he is accused, not even indicted.

President Trump has yet to be convicted of anything concerning Stormy Daniels. He did openly admit to giving her money in response to blackmail, not illegal. That makes Trump the victim, not Daniels, not the state. In return for the money, she signed a non-disclosure agreement, a legal and binding document. She she broke the agreement, the second law she broke. Again, the victim is President Trump.

And now, of all things, the New York DA is trying to prosecute the victim. I ask you. Does that make sense?

Those of you who live in NY, might want to remember. Don’t pay blackmail or the NY DA just might spend years trying to put you in prison, that is unless you call yourself a democrat. Dems always get unlimited mulligans.
