Posted on December 16, 2013 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, most folks will give up their beliefs for their team, but very few will give up their team for their principles. We all want our team to win. It is merely human nature. … Continue reading →

John Kennedy’s Legacy

Posted on November 25, 2013 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, John Kennedy was a great man, for the very same reasons today’s democrats are not and never will be great. Every aspect of Kennedy’s Presidency was the antithesis of progressivism, which made him a … Continue reading →

Charity, Redistribution, Compassion and Resentment.

Posted on November 14, 2013 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, charity elevates both the giver and the receiver, while redistribution lowers both. This is a critically important thing for the average person to understand. Those who actually want to help their neighbor will … Continue reading →

The Deflation Bugbear

Posted on November 10, 2013 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, when economists worry about deflation it is like a doctor worrying about a runny nose, they both are concentrating on a symptom, not the underlying disease. The consensus among economists is that deflation … Continue reading →

The Republican Party is Dead… Long Live the Tea Party

Posted on November 4, 2013 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me… the republican party is in a death spiral of it’s own making. No political party can stab it’s base in the back, over and over, and survive as a viable party for long. … Continue reading →

The Rise of the Proletariat

Posted on October 31, 2013 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, the two parties in the US don’t represent the people, they represent two factions of the elite. The democrat party represents the so called “New Class” while the republican party represents the bourgeois. … Continue reading →

The Religion of Socialism

Posted on October 21, 2013 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me that socialism is a religion. The committed socialist behaves exactly as if he or she is a member of a cult. A body where their God is the collective, to be sure, but … Continue reading →

Our Constitutional Crisis

Dear Friends, It seems to me, the debt ceiling and government shutdown is not about spending, and it is not about winning or loosing a mere political battle, it is a Constitutional crisis. The needless rhetoric that has been … Continue reading →

I Pencil and Complexity Theory

Posted on October 14, 2013 by john
