The Truth of the Proof

Posted in Abuse of Power, Biden, Cheating, Deceit, Elections, Fauci by

The state assemblies keep trying to find the proof of the fraud in the last election.

The FOBs keep trying to hide the proof.

The fate of the nation hangs in the balance.

AND, by the way, the media is doing all they can to help the FOBs. Not even Fox News says a thing about it anymore. Whenever the subject does come up, they quickly change it. So the truth suffers.

Regardless, there has been disobedience of the law, even to the point of admission, which very few pay attention to.

Then, of course, Fauci knows he is safe from prison as long as the AG is a FOC. If and when he is ever replaced by a republican, he just might want to by a ticket for China.

New Republicans??

The dems like to import democrat voters. Maybe we need to start importing republican voters. All we need to do is send a team down to Central America, train a bunch of them about the benefits of voting republican. Then, bring them north for half the going price.

I think we could pick up a few republican voters and maybe make some money too. I think it would work. It does have one problem with it.

We don’t do things like that. The dems do– without hesitation. I guess that says something about dems and republicans.

By the way, it would have one more problem. It would take the dems vary little time to figure out how to keep our immigrants south of the border.

Something to Cheer About

Posted in Abuse of Power, Biden, Border wall by

With all the deaths and disease as the result of people crossing the border; with all the drugs being smuggled across the border and killing our youth; with the bottoming out of salaries as the result of illegal aliens willing to work for pennies on the dime, you’d think the dems would have nothing to cheer about with the border but they do.

First, so you will understand, none of the above means a thing to them. Look a Cuomo. He killed thousands and he has never issued anything that resembles an apology. Do you really think he feels badly. Do you really think Biden cares a whit about children being left alone in the desert or being used and abused. It is all acceptable collateral damage toward the goals of the dems- total control.

So when Biden sees those people flow over the border, he cheers, though he will not do it openly, He hides his glee within himself and just a few of his cohorts. You see the way he looks at it, every person that crosses the border is a potential vote for the FOCs and he knows it. To him, the rest matters not. It is the potential votes he cheers for. The people don’t matter. If he were convinced that they would vote republican, he would close the border tomorrow and he would be there in person to help to finish the wall.

As for those who are still en route, as for the little stranded children, he would turn them all south and tell them they are on the their own now.

Landing a 747

Posted in Biden by

I have likely seen every episode of Myth-busters. I have learned likely a few dozen useless things in the show. On the other hand, there are a few of the shows I disagree with, the air-conditioned car vs four windows down for instance. In the show, they ran the car with the air-conditioning full on. I do not run my car with the air on full for more than a few minutes. Once the car is cool, I run it about 1/4, even in the the south’s 100 degree summer.

For those unaware of the show (What planet do you live on?) they try to prove/disprove myths. Well, actually, they are not all myths. Sometimes they are just sayings, like “Blow his socks off.” That one failed miserably. It is literally impossible to blow a person’s socks off.

That is all neither here nor there. I would like to zero in on one that I found particularly interesting, the landing of a 747. The reason I had such an interest is that I have tried it… on my Micro Soft Flight Simulator. Even after several attempts, my 747 ended up in a heap near the end of the runway.

At any rate, in the myth, they tried to prove/disprove the myth about a plane being landed by a person who is not a pilot, as in many movies where the crew is disabled. (Doris Day was in one of them… a 4 engine prop plane.)

For the episode, they decided on a 747. Well not a real one, but a simulator far better than mine. They used one that they use for training real pilots. At first, they did not do much better than me.

At this point, let me remind one and all just what all is involved in landing a modern jet liner. Most land at speeds of 150 mph, twice the legal speed of an interstate. It is critical that it remain lined up on a runway, while making the proper decent. Descend too steep and you will end up short of the runway. At some airports, that means — in the drink. Descend too slow and you’ll run off the end of the runway. There are real instances of both by real pilots. And by the way, it is also imperative that you maintain the right speed, lower the flaps and landing gear at the right time, and a few other trivial details like apply the reverse thrusters properly at the right time.

At first, the Myth Buster crew did not do much better than me. Then after some training, they did a decent job of it. Mind you this was on a simulator under ideal conditions.

Then, the fella what ran the simulator explained two things that about knocked my socks off. First, it never happened. On commercial airliners, the pilot or copilot has always been available to land the plane. Second, the 747 can land itself. Someone from the ground can tell someone in the air how to set it all up and the plane can come in on autopilot.

Now, I got to thinking about it the other day. I think there is an exception to that, in a way. President Trump had the whole country so that it could fly on autopilot for the next 4 years. When he turned the controls over to Biden, all he had to do was keep his hands off the controls. Maybe before he left The White House, President Trump should have instructed that Biden not be permitted to have any pens. It would appear that Biden has proved, over and over, that the pen is mightier than common sense instructions.

Ben’s Dream World

Posted in Communism by

From time to time I have permitted myself to dream of selling a lot of books, maybe to the point I would have five million dollars in the bank. I am not greedy. Others have done far better. Unfortunately or me, my books do not sell that well. Some of my books I can’t give away.

Nonetheless, I do have two more in the works. Maybe one of them will become a best seller. On the other hand, maybe some movie producer will see how great “His Protector” would look on the big screen.

I figure if I could make 5 million, I’d have all the money I’d ever need. Then again, you and I know that is not going to happen, leastwise not until I get a good editor. Then too, a screenwriter would rewrite the book anyway.

Regardless, the little visit into my world of dreams caused me to think about another dreamworld. What if the federal government decided to fix all the poverty in our country. In one day, The Treasury Department cut a check to everyone over 18 years of age for 5 million dollars.

Now that would be a dream world. In one day, poverty would cease. Everyone would have all the money they needed and they’d never have to lift another finger. In straight simple math, we could all spend 50 thousand a year for 100 years. We would all be set for life. Right!

However, let us not overlook the obvious. That would mean everyone else would have all the money they need and they would not have to work. That poor old lady that works at that convenience store would walk off the job immediately, if not sooner. Hopefully, she would take the time to switch the gas pumps off and lock the doors.

Forget about going to the bowling alley. The place would be shut down. Why should the owner work his tail off when he already has all the money he needs.

Indeed, it is nightmare rather than a dream world. Those running the power stations would just shut things down and walk away. In an hour or two, the whole country would be plunged into the rock ages. We might have cars, but not gas. We might have homes, but nothing to heat them with. Indeed, we might even have problems finding candles.

We might have water for a while. I’m not sure about that. However, forget food. It has to be shipped in on trucks. Conceivably, it just might be the doomsday that the preppers have prepared for. However, I don’t even know how well they would be prepared for such a nightmare.

Most likely, some method of bartering would break out. I don’t know. It is sort of the way the people survive in so called communist countries. Then again, they might just declare martial law and control everything by the military.

Wait a minute. That won’t work. All those in the military would walk off the job too, with their millions.

Ironically, the ones it would hurt the most would be the billionaires. They might have their limos, but they’d not have any gas, or anyone to drive them. They might have their planes, but they’d not have any pilots. They might have their yachts but they’d have no one to crew them. They would have to do for themselves and they just might not know how.

Capitalism might be a horrible monetary system, but it does work. Communism, though it is a dreamworld, does not work nor has it ever. People will not work unless they have a reason to. Capitalism provides the motive while communism will not work without the whip.

To be sure, communism does look attractive. Then again, my dreamworld looks even better at first glance.

All You Have to Do Is….

Posted in Customer complaints, Fast Food, Fauci, Mistakes by

Yesterday afternoon, I stopped by a fried chicken place. I’m not going to use names but it was a well known place. It had advertised that the dinning room was open but I guess, for one reason or the other, they closed it again. There was an employee there and she told me, “You have to drive around.”

I know it is a terminology, but it is one that rubs me the wrong way. Had it not been for the recent problems with the China virus and I do realize it has caused problems, I would have replied, “No, ma’am. I do not have to drive around. I do have the option of going somewhere else or I can go home and make my own dinner.”

It did remind me of a young man I was talking to on a phone. It was back in the days when most people had land lines. I don’t remember what it was but I was trying to buy something. Maybe it was a pizza. It doesn’t matter. He hit my hot button and told me, “All you have to do is….” I don’t remember the rest. It doesn’t matter. I simply told him, “No. I don’t have to do anything.” I was very emphatic and he apparently realized his mistake as he started trying to explain. He didn’t get very far.

Recently, I tried to get a plumber to come out to my house. The woman I was talking to tried to get me to sign up for one of those yearly contracts. I explicitly told her I was not interested and please send out a plumber. She continued and I warned her, “If you continue at this I will hang up.” She did; so, I did. To this day I wonder if the owner realized she cost him a regular customer. I have not gone back to him since.

I am not a business owner nor do I have a degree in business. For that matter, I do not have a degree. However, I have worked in businesses before and I always know better than to tell a customer, “All you have….” It is basic business 101, and all business owners need to tell their employees.

Unlike those of us who have to go to get a driver’s license every couple of few years, most customers are not required to do business with a certain company. Occasionally, things like that do happen, especially in the old days when there was just one store in town and the next one was a two or three days ride away. However, in the case of the chicken place, there were five restaurants around in walking distance. We did not have to go through the drive through and we didn’t.

I know what the woman meant. I know she knew I did not really HAVE to go through the drive through. Still such things irk me. As I say, they push my button. I am a potential customer. I am not in any way captive to their business. More than that, I hate drive throughs, especially after the China virus. For quite a while, I could not find anyplace where I could sit down and eat. (Makes me all the more angry at Fauci. Why isn’t that no good character in prison?) Besides, believe it or not, when I go through a drive through, it generally takes much longer and I burn up a quarter tank of gas waiting.

More than that, people that own businesses should know to tell their employees about things like that. There is far too much competition out there, and some of them don’t require to drive through. Things may yet change but there are many places that now have open dining rooms and the are doing a thriving business.

As for the business that tried to sign me up for the contract. I’m not worried about them. They obviously have more business than they can handle anyway. They clearly did not have time for me.

You’d Think it Would Be Obvious!

They keep telling us to get the shots and put the masks on. The reason they give is because the number of cases are going up. Did any of those FOCs take a look at those coming over the border. 8 % of them have the China virus, maybe more. So they concentrate on the small leak in the dam while they ignore what is spilling over the top.

If not one person in the country had the virus, those that are infected would swarm over the border. For a man who wanted to stop the virus, this new president ain’t to smart. He is ignoring the obvious. On the other hand, does he even have anything to do with it? Does he even have any idea what he has done? I mean, it would be obvious to anyone with normal intelligence.

Counterfeit

In Matthew 17, Jesus told Peter to catch a fish and take a four drachma coin from its mouth. I was young the first time I heard the story. It seemed odd to me. Jesus did not need the fish. He could have made dozens of the coins with his spoken word. I suppose he could have also used many other methods as well. But, he told Peter to get the coin from the fishes mouth.

In the musical, “Fiddler on the Roof,” we could hear the whimsical song, “If I Were a Rich Man.” I totally enjoyed the song long before I saw the movie or play. To be sure I identified with it. Actually, I still do. I’m not greedy. I would be very happy with a million or two. I would not turn down five or six. It would not solve all my problems but it would solve most of them.

What does the one thing have to do with the other? Although God can make money, He rarely if ever does. On that day, when Jesus was asked about the taxes, if Jesus produced the money out of thin air, that would have been an act of counterfeiting. The money He would have made would have been produced outside the authority of the government and Jesus recognizes authority, even human authority.

I don’t know how that works completely, but had he made that coin, that would have been a sin, and Jesus does not sin. It does go beyond that. Let’s say God took pity on me, and maybe a few thousand others. He spoke the word and instantly, we would all have five million dollar bank accounts. That would not only be counterfeit in mass, but it could be very damaging to our economy.

That money represents work, skill and knowledge. When it is just given to me, it short circuits the system. It can and would likely negatively effect our economy. Suddenly, there would be millions more money in circulation and hence, each dollar would be worth less. Therefore, God would be improperly taking the representation of the work of thousands and giving it to me. I would benefit from the work of others wrongfully, as would the others.

So now, the government, in all its wisdom has decided it is okay to redistribute wealth. I get to benefit from the sweat of your brow and you get to benefit from the sweat of mine. Never mind the product of our work. Never mind my laziness. All those who have worked so hard to build those apartments. Never mind them. Let them go into debt while those who refuse to work live in the fruits of the work of their landlords.

God does not redistribute wealth because he knows it is not right. Why should the government know better.

Communism is a relatively new economic system. Capitalism is as old as trading. I will give you so many of these if you give me so many of that. I will help you build your home if you will provide food and clothing for me. If you provide me a boat, I will provide fish for you.

The coinage only made it all simpler. At first it had no government backing. However, over time, only the governments coined the money. At least that is the way it was supposed to work. Then they started taxing to pay for mutual defense and roads and such. Now it has gotten into a tangled mess, but it works the same.

The problem is that that there are a number of things that throw things out of kilter. There is, of course robbery. As mentioned a fore, counterfeiting. Then there is gambling and lotteries. In the blink of an eye, gambling can transfer the equivalent of large amounts of work from one to another. Such things throw the capitalists system out of kilter.

The man that loses all his wages cannot pay his rent. The gambling sites draw crowds of unsavory types. And then of course, those that own the “house” live on the fruits of the labor of others without adding one thing to society. Indeed, they become the “rich men” as sung of in the above song.

The work they do is a counterfeit work. But they are not alone. Those in government know how to counterfeit their contributions to society too. They tax some while they give to others… all the time skimming some off for themselves. It is the most important reason to keep government small. It is one of the most important reasons to limit the power of government. It is the biggest reason FOCs get involved in government.

It is one of the biggest reasons that governments fail.

Passwords

Posted in Passwords by

For some time now, I’ve been trying to find a carpenter to do some minor repairs on my kitchen cabinets. I don’t understand it. My father was an excellent carpenter. Me, not so much. You’d have thought I would have picked up some of it through osmosis, but when you put a hammer in my hand, you are asking for nothing but trouble.

So, I checked the Yellow Pages. They wouldn’t talk to me. If I wanted to replace my cabinets, they would provide an estimate, but minor repairs, forget it.

Twice, I tried the internet. There are a number of places that say they can help… replace cabinets. There are a number of places that suggest the complete remodeling of my kitchen. I’ve been in my house for over thirty years and I admit the kitchen likely does need a re-doing. However, I am retired and not very many people read my books. I cannot afford an overhaul. Besides, I am old. I likely won’t be around long enough to make it worth my while to put a bundle into such a thing.

The last place I tried looked like I was actually going to get some results. We started a basic communications and it sort of looked like I was going to get a good price. Then, of all things, they wanted me to set up a password.

Did I mention that I am old. I might also mention that already have passwords coming out of my ears. I can no longer do my banking online because I forgot my password, and that is not the first one I forgot either. As near as I can tell, I have close to ten of the things. And by the way, my doctor wants me to set up a password with him; I’m not sure. It might be two or three.

It would make things convenient, I’m sure. It would make it easier to get scripts when the old ones run out and they could simply post test results instead of sending them to me in the mail. The problem is… what happens if I forget the password? Then again, what happens if I write it down and someone finds it? It is entirely possible that others would be able to see my private medical records but I wouldn’t. The thought bothers me. I mean, if others can read my records, shouldn’t I be able to as well.

I don’t have what I would call medical secrets. If you ask me, I will give you my whole history, though I would suspect you would be bored to tears before five minutes. (You notice I am not listing them here. I don’t care if you read them. I would actually like it. However I prefer to hold onto my readers.)

As for the cabinet repair, it is not going to happen. I wrote them a message that if I need a password, it stops right now. I have no idea why they need a password. Are they afraid that someone will find out what kind of repairs they are doing? So far, I have not heard a response. I guess they didn’t want to do business with me. For that matter, I am not even sure they read my message.

I have found outfits that require a password to make payments on a credit account. I could not figure that one out. Were they really afraid that some stranger was going to make a payment on my account. I don’t make such payments over the net any more. Thankfully, I no longer need passwords for them. However, of all things, when I order pizza, they want a password. Can you really believe that? So, when I want a pizza, I ether go out or use a phone. (incidentally, I like olives on my pizzas and I don’t care who knows it.)

By the way, have you tried the Subway personal pizzas. They really are good and they serve them piping hot in less than ten minutes after ordering them. (I have no affiliation with Subway. I just like their food.)

By the way. Last time I checked, I can order food from Subway and they don’t expect a password from me…not yet. When they do, I just might start looking elsewhere. i should not need a password to order food. Come to think of it, I should not need a password to get repairs made to my kitchen.
