Never Talk To Police

Do You Know the Fifth and Sixth Amendments? Why in the world does every parent who is a prosecutor, a judge, or a law enforcement officer not just give their kids the above advice, but practically beat it into their heads? They drill into them: 1) Never, never, NEVER answer any police questions beyond just…… Continue reading Never Talk To Police

Free Or Cheap, No Bar-To-Entry Law School

While I’ve worked in education, I’ve never been formally employed at a university. I received free ministerial ordination through an organization unaffiliated with any faith tradition. After following Josh Kaufman’s Personal MBA blog for years and later reading his book of the same name, it occurred to me that there isn’t much reason not to…… Continue reading Free Or Cheap, No Bar-To-Entry Law School

Surrendering Sovereignty Is Unconstitutional

DO NOT COMPLY! Founding father and physician Benjamin Rush foresaw the dangers of a secret medical dictatorship. That’s right, any attempt to yield or usurp the sovereignty of the citizens, We The People, is inherently unconstitutional, unlawful, illegal and invalid—probably even in the context of a constitutional convention. Although governed, we are not subjects of…… Continue reading Surrendering Sovereignty Is Unconstitutional

POST-CHRISTIAN AMERICA

America, the industrialized culmination of the Renaissance, the Reformation and the Enlightenment,   is on a birth control drug-induced high like a heretofore Catholic nun who has thrown off her habit, bummed a toke and headed for a nude beach.  The contraceptive Pill blurred the primary difference in male/female behavior and the girls forgot Judeo-Christian restraint…… Continue reading POST-CHRISTIAN AMERICA

“GUNS” IS NOW A FOUR- ETTER WORD

Swollen and technologically boosted governments are more controlling; that may explain the current politicization of so much of human behavior generally and of gun ownership in particular.. America’s founders were trying to confound history with their Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution; governments have normally disarmed citizens as they could for obvious reasons. When the…… Continue reading “GUNS” IS NOW A FOUR- ETTER WORD

THE WAR ON CASH

The War on Cash (yours) is waged by government (also yours). That is bad enough, but unfortunately my government and for that matter, everyone else’s too are in it together. The first stage is proceeding in Sweden, where cash is now “more trouble than it is worth” if one believes the press. It is also…… Continue reading THE WAR ON CASH

THE SUICIDE OF THE WEST?

The earth’s preeminent civilization is a suicide by self-administered politicization. It is but the latest in a long line of predecessors.  Civilizations rise upon the shoulders of their citizens, they are enlarged by their governments and when they are no longer energized by their citizens, they collapse. Reflecting their progenitors, they have finite lifetimes. Western…… Continue reading THE SUICIDE OF THE WEST?

THE PASSING OF PRIVACY

Privacy: The state or condition of being free from being observed or disturbed by other people. Computers, cameras, microphones, drones and satellites are surrounding us with observers these days, much to the indignation and even outrage of many. Never mind that, for the average person, current ideas of privacy are a luxury provided primarily to…… Continue reading THE PASSING OF PRIVACY

IMMIGRATION INTO NORTH AMERICA

  Some scholars assure us that no one lived in North America much before some 15,000 years ago and that the Clovis culture from shortly after that time represents the continent’s first inhabitants. We don’t know whether 97% of scientists agree that is settled science but we do know that some recent discoveries seem to…… Continue reading IMMIGRATION INTO NORTH AMERICA

FLINCHING FROM THE FUTURE

Our children’s and grandchildren’s lives will be lived in the society we are making; should we look forward to their gratitude? America’s Founders earned gratitude; however imperfect their bequest, it  draw aspiring multitudes from everywhere on on earth. But now we are rejecting their vision; it is time to consider how our descendants may feel…… Continue reading FLINCHING FROM THE FUTURE

INTERESTING TIMES IN THE UNITED STATES

All Congressional Democrats and too many Republicans, instead of performing their elected jobs, seem largely devoted to eliminating President Trump if possible and if not, preventing his execution of his office.  The political parties appear to represent neither the people nor the Constitution, acting instead as though they are somehow entitled to control the country.…… Continue reading INTERESTING TIMES IN THE UNITED STATES

IS SOCIO-POLITICAL CONTROL IN AMERICA CONVERGING WITH CHINA?

The Chinese “Social Credit” system employs nearly total surveillance, censorship and informers to maintain individual accounts for each citizen. A low score can prevent travel or desirable employment or worse. The monitoring uses GPS, facial recognition, internet activity, cell phone tracking and the informers to keep the accounts up to date. Big Brother has arrived…… Continue reading IS SOCIO-POLITICAL CONTROL IN AMERICA CONVERGING WITH CHINA?

GLOBALISM: ANOTHER SOCIALIST SCAM

Socialism cannot endure because it relies upon forcing inhuman behavior onto humans; Globalism forces unnatural behavior onto nations. Socialists suppress individuality; Globalists suppress nationality. Both are oppression that dissolve whenever the imposing force is not maintained. Except that the first is applied to people and the second to nations, they are pretty similar. Historically, they…… Continue reading GLOBALISM: ANOTHER SOCIALIST SCAM

: U.S. Politics: Are Assassins Waiting In The Wings?

Americans now yawn at carjackings and road rage and remain unsurprised at mass shootings of innocents; should we not expect political assassinations? The degree of heavily publicized, raw hatred pumped out by media, politicians and celebrities against President Trump and now against Justice Kavanaugh paints, in today’s atmosphere, prominent targets upon their backs while long…… Continue reading : U.S. Politics: Are Assassins Waiting In The Wings?

KOMIC KAVANAUGH KAPERS IN KONGRESS

The earth’s most significant country was founded by serious men in a revolutionary experiment that has shaped human history; circa 2018, its government is running as farce. A Supreme Court nominee, an outstanding legal scholar with an impeccable judicial record,  is vilified by Congressfolk and media headlines because a woman finally noticed after some 30…… Continue reading KOMIC KAVANAUGH KAPERS IN KONGRESS

WHY CEO’S EARN SO MUCH MORE AS THEIR WORKERS EARN LESS

  The Federal Reserve chart of CEO pay history serves as well to illustrate the suppression of America’s middle class. When the corporate boss takes a larger share, less remains for others. And today, corporate bosses take some six times more than they once did, while the middle class struggles to stay afloat. The rich…… Continue reading WHY CEO’S EARN SO MUCH MORE AS THEIR WORKERS EARN LESS

Money, Power and Democratic Socialism Create Poverty

That the U.S. middle class is dissolving as its rich get richer is no mystery; it is a normal result of advancing socialism.  Covertly advancing since the Great Depression  of last century, U.S. socialism has become too pervasive to hide some of its inevitable effects. That is why the socialists are using a new term:…… Continue reading Money, Power and Democratic Socialism Create Poverty

Providing Healthcare Is NOT Practicing Medicine

Once, medical doctors were self-employed professionals who needed to please patients but now, they are functionally mid-level employees who have to please their employers. Those employers in turn have to please both insurers and government. That has produced changes that matter. Providers are supplied patients by employers and insurers; pleasing patients is now a much…… Continue reading Providing Healthcare Is NOT Practicing Medicine

ARE WHITE MEN THE NEW JEWS?

The American Left now seems to be treating white men much as the Nazis began treating Jews. A New Orleans food stall gathered favorable (and evidently much needed) publicity advertising that White customers were charged more than others. Race/gender based relegation to the back of the government employment and college admissions lines seems permanent. Universities…… Continue reading ARE WHITE MEN THE NEW JEWS?

GUNS and REALITY

The U.S. Left, its media and school teachers are prostituting the recent Florida psychotic’s attack on a school in hope of arousing a successful lynching of American gun ownership. The wish is to substitute emotion for thought by blaming the chosen tool instead of its psychotic user. It seems an appropriate time to think, given…… Continue reading GUNS and REALITY
