Column #421      September 22, 2023 The National Debt Clock keeps rolling along. Our Federal government has now blown through $33 trillion of borrowed money and there’s no end in sight of deficit spending. Our legislative leaders just can’t get enough of it. Once again, voting in a Republican majority in the House of Representatives to put a lid on runaway spending has turned into a big joke.1 Kevin McCarthy, the new Speaker of the House is a limp dishrag. Representative Matt Gaetz has had him pegged from the get-go. McCarthy is hardly better than Nancy which makes him a lot like Pal Ryan.

Column #420         September 15, 2023 Don’t be fooled by the stock market’s ten-month rebound that actually motivated some analysts to predict we’re in a new bull market. In the big picture, that rebound was merely a dead cat bounce before what I expect to be a truly impressive collapse in stock market valuations. The reason being is that stocks are already richly valued with the S&P price to earnings ratio at 25.72. In bad times that ratio can drop into single digits on even lower earnings and that means these are high risk times.1 In terms of business conditions the wold is struggling.

Column #419        September 8, 2023 It’s not over yet. COVID-19’s evolutionary journey is going to be around for decades to come. Currently, the number of covid cases is soaring as a new variant sweeps around the world. Per normal, the radical alarmists are shouting out their warnings and guidance. Universities are mandating masking and other totally worthless, unscientific measures to prevent the spread. The Federal government is once again telling us to get vaccine boosters and mask up to prevent the spread. The MSM is falling in line with their stupid warnings and alarmist rhetric.

Column #418         September 1, 2023 As a legal doctrine aiding and abetting is related to the guilt of someone who aids or abets another person in the commission of a crime. “Someone who aids and abets a crime may provide support by giving advice, financial support, or by taking action not directly related to the crime itself, for the purpose of facilitating its success.”1 I don’t think criminality and corruption in our country has ever been so flagrant. It’s at all levels involving the most deranged, lowlife criminal on the bottom of the heap to the president of the UnitedStates.

Column #417      August 25, 2023 The number of ignorant, voting-age Americans is absolutely astounding. Polls continue to indicate that Biden has a 42% approval rating. Kamala’s approval rating is 40%. These numbers aren’t from polling about which party to vote for, it’s people responding to the basic question about job approval. Do you approve or disapprove on their job performance?1 2 In light of their performance to date, Biden-Harris may have the worst track record of all of the country’s past administrations—even including the Carter administration. In the opinion of Stepen Hess, “Jimmy Carter’s failure to set consistent policy goals—or more grandly, a philosophy for government” was his downfall.
