On this Memorial Day, I felt I should talk about my grandfather who fought in the Battle of the Bulge. I recently was gifted a cherished family artifact from WWII. It is a carved wooden cigarette box with a nice “automatic” dispensing feature. It sat on my grandfather’s end table …

The Cigarette Box of Heilbronn

In this podcast, I explain why I think this census is more important than the election. I speculate a Biden win might not lead to a Biden presidency. In fact given what I have been seeing a Biden win could put us over the edge. We are a divided nation. …

Why the Census is More Important than the Election

Covid-19 has exposed the flaws and weaknesses in the American system of capitalism. There are many systems of capitalism being executed across the globe. There is the authoritarian capitalism of China. The regulated capitalism of Europe and the oligarchic capitalism of Russia. Maybe Putin’s system is what we most look …

The Cockroaches of Kleptocracy

This podcast is not meant to denigrate the efforts of our government or any others around the world. This is meant to provide some perspective. Many younger folks are now standing in front of me asking questions like, Have you ever seen anything like this? Is this not the worst …

Don’t Worry! NOTHING is Under Control.

Some comments on the Democratic primaries. Frankly, it looks like Biden is going to be “appointed” as the Democratic nominee. If that is the case I think #45 will get four more years. The way the Democratic candidates laid down on Monday before Super Tuesday had to be disappointing to …

Bernie, Biden and Corona Virus Makes Three

The circus continues in Washington and now in Iowa which is also coincident with the State of Union. Goodness, there is a lot happening at once and none of it looks very good. American corruption is on full display for the world to see. The Iowa Caucus debacle is amazing …

Circus Circus

The impeachment show is not helping the American brand one bit and it certainly is not helping average Americans achieve anything. This circus is only about the battle for power in a corrupt system.

The Impeachment Show

The impeachment of #45 will be unconstitutional. A successful impeachment in the House which is then shepherded through the Republican Senate by Mitt cannot restore the republic. It is a sad state of affairs, but it is where we are at as a nation. Congressman Devon Nunes’ line of questioning …

Et Tu Romney?

If you have not been paying close attention to the financial markets, you may not have heard that the Federal Reserve has had to step in several times over the last few days to control the interest rates being charged overnight between banks. This is smelling a lot like 2008. …

Did the World Just Tell America NO to Printing Money?

Our President apparently has interest in buying Greenland. I cannot say that I blame him frankly. It actually makes good sense, if the global climate is warming up. It makes double good sense if you plan on running your economy by burning fossil fuels to generate power or hindering your …

The Left Makes a Big Mistake on Climate Change and Why #45 Wants to Buy Greenland

I should warn everyone there are some F-bombs in this podcast. I am very angry at a sitting president telling duly elected representatives of the people that they need to leave the country. That a duly elected representative HATES the United States. A sitting president incites a crowd to chant …

Stop the Nazis and Losing the Space Race

I am surprised by how upset the right gets about the term “socialism”. All societies have some form of socialism. All must act collectively. The military is the ultimate socialist enterprise. Even a libertarian society must engage in some collective actions. Libertarian-Socialism is not an oxymoron. It is a way …

Libertarian-Socialism is not an Oxymoron

There was no way people were going to allow me to NOT comment on the Mueller Report. I was never a big fan of impeachment, because I think there are some fundamental issues with our election system that must be addressed. I really think that the only trustworthy election in …

The Mueller Report

Julian Assange has some very powerful enemies. #45 trumpeted WikiLeaks DNC email dump, but he is silent now. Assange is feared and hated on both sides of the aisle. Democrats are even more virulent in their hatred. I guess the outing of the unDemocratic National Committee to the American people …

Tax Cuts, Assange, Manning and oh yeah… Book is Done!

We must come together as a nation. The Russian hacking did not FLIP votes. It is possible the a hack revealed DNC emails, but those emails were not faked or altered. Those emails revealed to Americans the undemocratic process inside the Democratic Party. The billionaires put #45 in office not …
