Kamala Shines Bright
Column #472 September 13, 2024
September’s Trump/Harris debate was a bright performance by Kamala. She showed us just how bright a gas light can be. On the other hand, I don’t think Trump was prepared for her barrage of radical, leftist talking points. Kamala artfully delivered several scolding rebukes that were old hand accounts of previously debunked nonsense coupled with lawfare charges. Additionally, Kamala avoided most of the moderators’ direct questions, including the very first question. The end result was that we learned nothing about Kamala as she heaped her versionof dirt on Trump. What if Deflation?
Column #471 September 6, 2024
Americans do not know much about deflation. They are aware of inflation which they assume is rising prices. Yet rising prices are only symptoms of inflation, not the cause. What can be said about inflation is the opposite of deflation.
Since our monetary system is a debt-backed system, the money supply is determined by debt. As consumptive debt expands faster than the growth of available goods and services—prices increase. When debts shrink faster than the supply of available goods and services—prices fall.
Inflation requires deliberate decision to increase debts. Respect

Sincerity or Hypocrisy? Respectful people are sincere.1
The coming election is like no other in our country’s history. The differences in the two presidential candidates could not be more contrasting. Amazingly, about half of the voters support the candidates of the Democrats and the other half supports the candidates put up by the Republicans.
With voters being so evenly divided, one would think the positions the two parties are proposing are very positive or about as significantly different as one would find in an election for class president ina grade school. Patriots All
Column #469 August 23, 2024
In my previous column I provided examples of what the major search engines, the Democratic Party, most university eggheads, and the MSM thought of the speakers at the Phyllis Schlafly Eagles 53 Trump National Golf Club conference. The bottom line was that they are all traitors!1 2 8
To maybe no one’s surprise, those evaluations were incorrect. Yes, nearly all of the presenters at the Phyllis Schlafly Eagles 53 conference are close to Donald Trump. For merely supporting, advising, or receiving Trump’s support most of the speakers have been subjectedto lawfare, government agency harassment, censorship of their views on social media and other venues, and slanderous accusations that are widely publicized in the MSM.

Column #468 August 16, 2024
This past week Linda and I attended the Phyllis Schlafly Eagle’s presentation at Trump’s National Golf Club Bedminster. It was also a special celebration for what would have been the 100th birthday of the founder! The program had an interesting lineup of speakers starting with the featured speaker Mike Lindell—famous for making pillows and more famous for being an election denier.1 2 3
Since I didn’t know the stories behind many of the speakers, I searched online for more info—hopefully their bios. What I discovered is that Phyllis Schlaflys speakers are what the major search engines, the Democratic Party, most university eggheads, and the MSM consider traitors! Link after link indicated these people are despicable, lowlife, deplorables, election deniers, convicted felons, embezzlers, threats to democracy, and just simply weird folks. The Perfect Crime

What Every Young Mother Should Know
Column #466 August 2, 2024
An astounding number of young American mothers just don’t get it. Their kids are emotional messes. They are beyond spoiled. Melt downs are commonplace. Being on drugs is the norm. The children aren’t raised with the Ten Commandments in mind. Children are taught to be ashamed of their country. Debauchery, DEI, and victimhood are taught in the schools along with the idea that the government is their nanny.
But it doesn’t stop there. What many American mothers feed their children is appalling. Alarmingly, often the children decide what they eat—nt the mothers. Structural Integrity
Column 465 July 26, 2024
Depending on where you live, structures have to be constructed to withstand the environment. Earthquake prone areas require different structures than do areas exposed to hurricanes. A home on the Arctic Circle must differ from homes at the equator. A house on a shoreline must differ from one inland. More than just buildings, many other aspects for survival must be taken into account depending on your environment.
Basic structures are also critical for institutions such as governments, businesses, religions, clubs, and sports. America’s original structur of governance was unique for its time. Ebb and Flow
Column 464 July 19, 2024
Ebb and Flow describes something that changes in a regular and repeated way. Of course in most cases “regular” doesn’t mean the changes are as precise as a swinging pendulum. For instance, in business there are always ebbs and flows and the periods often vary because of outside influences.Our little meat business is impacted by the ebb and flow of orders. As in all businesses, daily orders come in clusters. It’s quiet for a while and then all of a sudden several people order within minutes of each other. There’s also a seasonal ebb and flow wherewinter sees more action than summer. Revisiting Jonestown
Column 463 July 12, 2024
Most of us remember the Peoples Temple Agricultural Project in Jamestown, Guyana. It was made famous for a mass murder/suicide event on November 18, 1978. Its leader, Jim Jones, offered his followers a utopia where they could enact their vision of an equal, self-sufficient, “apostolic socialism” society. As often occurs with similar cult-oriented leadership, the leader is paranoid and controlling. Jim Jones was no exception.1
Part of the members’ ritual was to practice drinking “poison” as a loyalty test. It wasn’t poison of course, but in thefinal hours of the Temple, the members were ordered to drink a concoction laced with various real chemicals and cyanide—or be shot by the guards. 300+ Health/Nutrition Essays
