You have a society that will become extinct.

WHAT SAY YOU ?


Surprising how the medical community fell right in line with F***i's proclamations and interpretions of science derived from clinical trials that never underwent extensive vetting and peer review. There are many who say doctors and scientists who raised objections were coerced to tow the line and stay quiet, mostly silenced by the specter of withholding research funding and grants. Many younger medical professionals who were working on the front lines of the epidemic and who saw the death count spiral appeared deeply traumatized by the experience, enough so as to embrace every breath F***i took, while collectively condemning every action and statement made by Trump. That dynamic was almost universal across the entire spectrum of media, especially on the subjects of p******c origins and alternative treatments. Now we are learning of the great financial incentives at play in the p******c industry -- from political power to pharmaceutical profiteering --- all of it given life by the ill-informed falling into line behind the F***i platform, forsaking all others. In the olden days they were called false prophets. Today, they're just influencers. And as we witness yet another revered institution previously held in high esteem -- the medical community at large -- dismantled by greed, lies and outright science denial -- we see another pillar of society wobble.

Seems the winning side is only interested in collecting the laurels and moving on, no need to learn any lessons. And that's understandable in human nature. But when there are legitimate questions raised, at least on the process, if not the results, integrity matters and demands accountability.

You know, as I pointed out to you in April, there were e******n irregularities, and changes to e******n law, enacted by e******n officials (some elected, some appointed), who lacked both the legal authority and consent of the e*****rate to effect such changes. Irrespective of motive, or to what degree outcomes were effected, these events did indeed happen; they happened in key states and counties; and to diminish these facts by insidiously conflating them with unproven charges of fraud is a disservice to rational people who rightly object to government overreach on all levels. So man up and acknowledge that there are valid concerns beyond the trope of unprovable widespread fraud; and the legitimacy of an e******n achieved outside the bounds of established rules and law is worthy of scrutiny without doubters being assailed for raising the question. 81 million? C'mon, man.

Gen. Colin Power had a humble beginning, but emerged as one of the most important and effective leaders of our times. He served Vietnam. He was the Chief Joint of Staff, and Sec. of State under the Bushes administration. His achievements were all respected and appreciated by world countries.

At the later years of his life, he turned democrat supporting president Obama and Joe Biden.
But his positive achievements I still consider it more important than those negatives.

America lost a great man.

I could revere the man more if he spoke out against some of the policies that evolved throughout the Obama administration. I can completely agree with his titillation of an Obama presidency in 2008 and do not begrudge his supporting the Obama ticket. But as the spectrum of the Obama presidency emerged, the Iran nuclear deal, the missed opportunities of the Arab Spring, the B******i attack, the Chemical weapon red line miss that brought Russia into the Syrian theater, and of course the emergence of the Deep State as foretold by Snowden and embodied by Clapper and Brennan, how did such a distinguished patriot like Powell lose his voice? At any rate, I mourn the passing of, on balance, a great American who got constrained from leaving an even greater legacy by his political allegiance.

The Real Reason the Economy Might Collapse
Robert Reich

Economic Policy | Wealth Ine******y
by Robert Reich | October 11, 2021 - 6:49am




Skyrocketing wealth ine******y isn’t just wrong. It’s also weakening our economy.

70 percent of the US economy depends on consumer spending. So American consumers need to spend enough money to buy most of the goods and services Americans are capable of producing.

This means that over the long term their incomes need to keep pace with their productivity.

But their incomes haven’t. Over the past 40 years, most people’s wages have basically stagnated , while worker productivity has soared.

Where did the economic gains go? Mostly to the top. The wealthy now own more of the economy than at any time since the 1920s.



Here’s the economic problem: The wealthy spend only a small percentage of their income and wealth. Their spending is not enough to fulfill the consumer demand that keeps the economy churning.

Lower-income people, on the other hand, spend almost everything they have – which is becoming very little. Most workers aren’t earning nearly enough to buy what the economy is capable of producing.

The result is a gap between potential output and potential consumption.

To fill the gap, the economy depends on people going deeper and deeper into debt so they can buy. Even in 2018, when the economy appeared strong, 40% of Americans had negative net incomes and were borrowing money to pay for basic household needs.

The Fed has had to keep short-term interest rates lower and lower to accommodate this buying. And the government has to spend more and more to fill the remaining gap.

None of this is sustainable. At some point, widening ine******y causes the economy to collapse.

We’ve seen this before. Years ago, Marriner Eccles, chairman of the Federal Reserve from 1934 to 1948, explained that the Great Depression occurred because the buying power of most Americans fell far short of what the economy was producing.

He blamed the increasing concentration of wealth at the top: “A giant suction pump had by 1929-1930 drawn into a few hands an increasing portion of currently produced wealth. As in a poker game where the chips were concentrated in fewer and fewer hands, the other fellows could stay in the game only by borrowing. When their credit ran out, the game stopped.”

While the wealthy of the 1920s didn’t know what to do with all their money, most Americans could maintain their standard of living only by going into debt. When that debt bubble burst, the economy tanked.

Fast forward 100 years and we see the same pattern. While the typical Americans’ wages have barely budged for decades, adjusted for inflation, most economic gains have gone to the top, just as Eccles’s so-called “giant suction pump” drew an increasing portion of the nation’s wealth into a few hands before the Great Depression.

The result has been an economy whose underlying structure is far more fragile than it may seem.

Remember the housing and financial bubbles that burst in 2008? We avoided another Great Depression then only because the government pumped enough money into the economy to maintain demand, and the Fed kept interest rates near zero. Then came the p******c.

The Fed has had to keep interest rates near zero. And the government has had to pump even more money into the economy. While these programs have been crucial to staving off a p******c-induced depression, they’re only temporary.

Over the long term, the real worry continues to be on the demand side. Widening ine******y means not enough demand.

America’s wealth gap is now more extreme than it’s been in over a century. Until this structural problem is remedied, the American economy will remain perilously fragile.

It will also be vulnerable to the next demagogue wielding anger, r****m, and resentment as substitutes for real reform.

Closing our staggering wealth gap is crucial to the survival of both our economy and our democracy.

Maybe so, but to his credit, it was done in the private sector and not on the taxpayer's teet like those thieving scalawags in Washington. Arrive with only moderate means, depart enriched. Their number is legion on both sides of the aisle. Elected office is a surefire lottery without the element of chance.

What if you tax companies that produce nothing to increase in price? Say Goldman Sacks, Hedge Funds and Banks. This is where the real money lies. Most Americans don’t own stocks and won’t notice a bit other than the improvements in their communities the revenue would provide. Beyond this if you have a company that is a manufacturer you are taxed on profit not income meaning reinvestment in the company rather than profit taking is encouraged by higher corporate taxes.

It is astounding to me that the American media has not made a serious line of inquiry into the matter of 12,000 dirt poor Haitian migrants traversing land and sea to arrive, en masse, at the obscure border town of Del Rio, TX. Who sponsored it? Who organized it? Who financed it? What NGOs were involved? What US agencies participated? How could our intelligence agencies not see this mass migration on the move from the eastern Caribbean to western Texas? To this day I don’t see any National media outlet investigating this story in depth. There are enemies of America at play here and no one wants them outed.

Okay....now I see where ther disconnect lies between our divergent points of view. You embrace the singular aberrations of unhinged people, and the anecodtal tales of violence that circulate among various news outlets and websites, as evidence of the peril v******ted and masked persons face at the hands of the unv******ted, maskless spreaders of lies and plague. These atrocities unnerve you, and take you down the path of overblown generalizations, approaching hysteria. I see it differently. I am unmoved by singular events engaged in by an insignificant few that shade the argument pro or con; I do not see an organized movement at play here, and perhaps you do. Instead, what makes me shudder is government mandates for v*****e requirements that upend HIPPA protections, that turn the "my body, my choice" credo on its head without a peep of protest from generations of advocates for that mantra. I object to regulations that restrict movement without approved travel documents, that trample privacy and follow Americans into the workplace. I oppose the selective exceptions for privileged groups (see postal workers, teacher unions). I fail to understand why the government's force of will is brought to bear on working Americans, private corporations, and dissenters with legitimate, unanswered, questions while i******s with a confirmed high infection rate get a pass to mingle. These are the big picture things that matter. Proven science and medical certainty acclaim natural immunity resulting from prior infection to have every bit the efficacy against spreading the v***s (and its variants) as the newly developed v*****es offer (perhaps more). Yet someone with demonstrable natural immunity must be v******ted regardless, or face the sanctions of job loss and community shunning? And that kind of tyranny doesn't unsettle you more than the isolated events you cite of bad people doing bad things? It's a matter of scale my friend. Your concerns appear born of the catchy headlines that bolster the notion of depraved lunatics wishing to infect us all. I worry about the far-reaching precedents being sought by the Administration, absent legislative or judicial inputs. That's big picture stuff. And it never ends well.

Kindly enlighten me. Cite some evidence if you would. To me the ebb and flow of intolerance is a clear current of the v******ted excoriating the unv******ted; of the masked shaming the unmasked. You seem convinced the reverse is true. I’m open to persuasive, factual argument but it never seems to come.
