Dear Friends, A book filled with conjecture and envy,Loved by the elite lacking empathy,A idealist trope,Was the guy on dope,Arguing for class hate based on jealousy. Evil begets evil or so they say,Hatred escalating day by day,What pomposity,Another atrocity,And both … Continue reading

The Problem of Asynchronous Power
Dear Friends, It seems to me, asynchronous power is the source of all injustice. Because injustice cannot exist when power is equal. Some see the problem of asynchronous power and believe the solution is to use it to punish, instead … Continue reading

Dear Friends They came in from down the hall,Unsuspecting so standing tall,But a stoned mind,What did they find,One of them had left behind their eightball. Take the shot and never reason why,The medical elite would never lie,So don’t be dejected,Higher … Continue reading

Are The Locals In The Way?
Dear Friends, It seems to me, in conflicts like Nagorno-Karabakh, Crimea, and Taiwan the only thing that should matter is… what do the people who live there want? If they want to live under a certain government then that’s their … Continue reading

Dear Friends, They’re not laid back so it’s not a toke,They’re all keyed up blathering about woke,Constant sniffles,Tittering giggles,That’s why I think the elite are all on coke. Pedophilia seems to run through the elite,Anyone with power and a big … Continue reading

Dear Friends, When relations begin to sour,And people start to cower,Something’s amiss,Remember this,The root of all evil is power. Look about and what do we see,All around us there is stupidity,They drive a truck,They run amok,So why is everyone dumb … Continue reading

Dear Friends, Arguments for war bounce about like a cue ball in pool,Dictate from a throne and fought by people on a stool,It’s a protected club,But here’s the rub,If they shouldn’t have nukes they shouldn’t rule. Our Constitution gets in … Continue reading

War On Workers
Dear Friends, It seems to me, regulators are waging war on workers. With the perfect paradigm of perverse incentives… in the name of protecting the worker, the environment, and the public. Regulators have made hiring Americans unprofitable. That’s why so … Continue reading

The Power Of Silent Prayer
Dear Friends, It seems to me a woman in Britain has been arrested several times for silently praying, which tells me, silent prayer is very powerful… else the elite wouldn’t have arrested her for it. Otherwise who cares if she … Continue reading →
