Money, Money, Money

Here we go again… authorizing congress to spend more money, which we don’t have.

Okay. If that is really the way you want it. Fine. I likely won’t have to stick around and help pay it off. If I am here another five years, it will surprise me.

However, as you give the authorization away to spend money and tax us, you are also giving them the ability to control us. In a short time, they will. I just hope I don’t live to see that day.

Our forefathers fought to secure the most precious gift they could pass down to us, FREEDOM. Now, without a second thought, we just give it away. Most likely, it will not ever be retrieved. Then, instead of doing what we want, we will do as we are told. Those who have the nerve to question will be imprisoned or killed.

Just remember. This is not one of those mistakes that you can fix with an eraser. There is no way to remove it with a backspace key. It is more permanent than ink. When you see that what I say is true, it will already be too late, if it is not already past the point no return.

Something You Won’t Find

Here lately, we have seen boys/men competing with girls/women athletics. As strange as it might seem, there are some who consider this normal.

So, I decided to turn things around. Though it is rare, there are girls on boys’ little league teams. Oddly, we have even seen a woman trying out for an NFL team… as a kicker. I guess women are just as smart as men, but I don’t think that woman was so smart. If she got hit just one time by a man weighing 250-280 pounds running full speed, she would quickly change her mind, should she live through it.

There is, however, one thing you will never, never, ever see — a woman trying to compete with men in weight lifting. It is just casual to the most obvious observer that it is wrong. Now on the other hand, men competing with women? It’s already been done, though, in truth, one is just as dumb as the other.

The FOCs Do Not Understand Oil

It’s so simple, a ten-year-old understands it, but the dems just can’t get their arms around it. When the price of oil goes up, the price of everything goes up. The reason is as simple as ABC. Oil, in some way or form is used to make everything.

The farmer uses it to plow the field and for the harvest. Oil is used in fertilizer as well as pest control. It is used to process the crop and in getting it to market. Even there, it is used by the markets for refrigeration.

Even if they go to all electric cars, the oil will be needed in the foreseeable future to make the electricity. And, by the way, it will also be needed to make the cars from the mining to welding and fabrics for the upholstery. The glass for the windows comes from factories that need the power from oil. By the way, glass is also used by the megaton in houses, buildings and aquariums – both large and small. Those six-inch thick panes of glass don’t just happen, you know. It takes a lot of power to make them.

We have come a long way with plastics. They are replacing wood, steel and glass. However, plastic is made from oil byproducts. Oil is also used in making some insulation, which helps us keep our food cold. Without the plastics, we would have to use the more expensive copper and steel for plumbing. Some of those plastic pipes are pretty big.

I suppose I could write 5 thousand word essay on just what all oil is used for. By the way, oil is used transporting oil: train, truck and even pipelines. The hitch is that it has a multiplying effect. When the price of food goes up, it causes everything else to go up. We all must buy food, though some of us should consume a little less.

When the price of glass goes up, it drives the price of cars, buildings and aquariums. When the price of steel and aluminum goes up, do I need to explain to you how that drives the cost of everything up.

So. So what? The price of oil goes up a few dollars. Just watch what happens over the following months. It is called inflation. Then everyone starts looking around, trying to understand how inflation rears its ugly head. Is it really any surprise that the cost of everything should go up 10% — or maybe a tad more. It doesn’t happen over night, but it does happen. It should not surprise anyone but it does, or at least it appears to.

The question is, are those FOCs really that dumb or are they they just pretending to be. After all, as I said, a ten-year-old can figure it out. Maybe inflation is just what they want. After all, those who benefit the most from inflation are the elite. Those who suffer the most are us Walmart shoppers.

For those interested, we could go back to using wood to stay warm as we did in the days of old. That would have two problems: deforestation and smog. Burning wood is nowhere near as clean as burning natural gas. Hence, we can easily say that some fossil fuel has helped in cleaning the air. Can you imagine all of us having to warm our house with wood… or coal.

Bottom line, we need to pump more oil. We need to do more fracking. We need to build more pipelines. That drives the price of everything down. It also has a pretty good side effect, it helps to keep the air clean.

As a side note… if you want to save a few billion particulates of carbon dioxide, do away with drive throughs. I have no idea how much gas is burned while waiting at drive throughs but I would guess it is very significant. Yet, I have not heard one dummycrat complain about them. Maybe they consider their convenience far too important. It is far too inconvenient for them to leave their Cadillac Escalade. Maybe they don’t want to get out in the heat or cold. On the other hand maybe they are just too lazy.

I don’t know. Maybe one or two of the elites will tell me. (to be sure, I make an exception for those who are disabled.)

On the Wrong Side of Things Maybe

This is a very rough paraphrase of something I heard Christina Bobb say about the abortion bill they just passed in the house.

Point 1. The bill would make abortion legal just about any time any place for any reason.

Point 2. The church of Satan highly favors the bill.

Question: Do you really want to be on the same side as the church of Satan on anything?

This is my little thought I have added on.

In the first chapter of John, the Bible speaks of evil as dark. It also says that the world prefers the dark over the light. This is just another example of just how truly true it is. It is sad when people prefer death over life. How tragic that a nation does not respect life… or that they prefer dark to the light that God provides.

Another Reason to Leave New York

Just heard over the news that that they will fine you $50 for riding the subway without a mask.

Sounds like just another reason to stay away from New York.

Sounds like another good reason to leave New York.

Actually, you already have a few very good reasons. So why do you need another?

Just please… if you go to a red state, leave your liberal ideas in New York. We don’t need them. They destroyed the great state of New York and California. If you do live in New York and you insist on bringing your destructive ideas with you, please go to one of those states on the Pacific coast or Illinois. I would guess those in Ohio don’t want such ideas either. They already have more than their share of folks that don’t know how things work.

A Little Question About EVs

During the late 1800s and early 1900s, cars mostly used gas. There were a few electric cars but they did not go over well. The reason is a different subject.

I’m not sure. I have not done a great deal of research on the matter but I don’t think the federal government did a thing to help establish gas stations. I suspect they did not pay for one of them. It did not require so much as one pork-barrel project to get them started. Even so, they did build them from one coast of the nation to the other. It was sort of done as a result of capitalism. People saw the need so they built gas stations. Others saw the need so they started hauling the gas to the stations. Still others saw the need so they started refining it. Oddly, some people actually started drilling for it… all without any help or encouragement from Uncle Sam.

Now. My little question. Just why is it that the FOCs think the federal government needs to subsidize charging stations for electric cars? (For those who don’t already know, they are trying to put it in one of the infrastructure bills.) My suspicions are that the FOCs have figured a way that it will fatten their wallets and enhance their power.

Out of sight…

It would seem that Biden believes in the adage “out of sight, out of mind.” He managed to make that place under that bridge look absolutely as if no one was ever there, let alone fifteen thousand.

However, the truth is, just because we cannot see them does not mean that he dealt with the problem. He simply hid it… OUT OF SIGHT.

BUILD THE WALL!!!

Follow the Science?

The visit that Kamala Harris had planned for the show “The View,” had to be modified. It seems two of the hosts tested positive for the China virus.

I really don’t know why the fuss. They were all fully vaccinated. All they had to do was all double mask and maintain 6 feet. Maybe, considering that she is vice president, she should maintain 8 feet and double mask. It is a matter of following the science.

My big question is this. Why have her on the program in the first place? All she will do is lie and spread the blame, which she did.

Then again, that’s sort of what the show specializes in, lying and spreading the blame. Well, there are two more things they do. They yell and make really bad jokes. That is sort of what FOCs do in general; all while maintaining political correctness.

Just Wondr’n

For a few weeks now, I have been seeing an ad on TV picturing a dog and a man with The Statue of Liberty in the background. Something is said about look alikes and I must admit the man and dog do bear resemblances to each other.

The one thing I keep wondering is, which one is most intelligent?
