Recovery Is More Than A Jobs Number!
My friend Ronald D. Glotta provided the inspiration for this post. The talking heads were visibly disappointed at the jobs number announced on Thursday. The number wasn’t the million that the pundits had been projecting. Just for giggles do some research and find out just how many times in the last 20 years US jobs […]
They’re Picking Your Pockets!
The things you don’t know if you don’t look. I’ll bet you didn’t know that the single biggest creditor of the US debt is none other than the Social Security Trust Fund. The number is actually stunning when you look at it. The program’s retirement and disability trust funds together held more than $2.9 trillion […]
Justice For All Or Justice For None!
One must wonder what thoughts are dancing through William Barr’s head right now. Judge Amy Berman Jackson became his worst nightmare come to life yesterday. When the Barr memorandum is released on the 17th I can only imagine that Barr will be wishing he could make himself invisible. One as to wonder given the announcement […]
The Game Is Rigged!!
The game is rigged. The message is designed to convince ordinary people that big business is the engine that drives the nation. The political system of this country was always designed to first and foremost serve the interest of the wealthy. Over time that desire for limited government and a desire to control the message […]

The next day Vice President Kamala Rice was asked if she thought that America is a racist country. Her response was that she does not think America is […]
THE GOP Must Be Crushed!
I was born in the United States and I’m tired of feeling like I’m stuck in an abusive relationship. I’m not naive enough to say that there aren’t issues with the Democratic party. I am saying that the villain of this story is the GOP which is mired in tribal populism that is home to […]
There Is A Magician Behind The Curtain
No More Waiting!!
I acknowledge your right to be thankful for the Chauvin conviction. I get it you need something to keep you going. I don’t need anything to keep me going because I understand the game. Chauvin changes nothing, NOTHING. Chauvin is nothing more than a pimple on an 🐘 elephants azz. For 400 years people not […]
THE CHAVIN CASE WAS JUST A BATTLE NOT THE WAR!!
In America (the US) approximately 13% of the population is black. Yesterday after the verdict was announced in the Chauvin murder trial we watched as people took a victory lap. I had to ask myself what the victory was. Nothing in the US changed because of the Chauvin verdict. The country didn’t magically become Camelot […]
