Be Careful What You Wish For! June 23, 2020

By Rich Kozlovich

Well, the left, AKA, the Democrat party got what it wanted. Destroy the economy to get Trump.

They came after the President with every lunatic claim they could muster to smear and destroy him, but his personal life was an open book, and a not so pretty one at that.  Since everyone who voted for him knew it, that didn't work!  Then their impeachment claims fell like a ton of manure, and it fell right back on them, and as more information comes out, the manure is falling on a lot more people with the stench reaching very high levels of the Obama administration.

That left the economy.  Unfortunately for them, it was humming along so nicely they couldn't attack Trump on the economy without looking even more insane than before.   But, now we're facing one of the biggest political and scientific scams to hit the nation ever.  The coronavirus scam!  With this scientific fraud they managed to crush the economy and destroy a lot of lives, and waste trillions on their pet schemes.

But as the old saying goes - "be careful what you wish for!"  This is going to come back to haunt them.

A Machiavellian principle.

Machiavelli's book "The Prince" made some amazingly simple, yet brilliant observations.  He showed the only thing the common people really want.  Security!  People want to be fed, housed, and furthermore, they want to feel secure in their ability to continue to be able to house and feed their families. Democrats are obviously working to take that away from them, They’re not feeling that security now!  This won’t be forgotten at election time.

When the invertebrates in the Republican party ran McCain and Romney for the presidency, and conservatives stayed home in droves, my friends were aghast. I explained to them why.

It was clear these faux conservatives were taking the nation to exactly where the Democrat left was wanting to go, just a bit slower. They were all undercover Rockefeller Republicans, just like Richard Nixon.

Conservatives had finally come to two conclusions. They were no longer going to support the Republicans who were not truly conservative, and they felt the only way they could change the system was to allow the lunatic left to take over completely. That way the nation could see just how insane and corrupt they really are.

Now that’s happened.

There are some areas that will always have large segments of the population that will embrace leftist insanity. But as for right now, there are states that are totally dominated by the left, and now these states are going to face the consequences of their own leftist dystopian policies. Except, with these wasteful spending schemes to the tune of trillions of dollars to offset this coronavirus fraud, they expect the federal government to bail them out of the unsustainable spending practices that have gone of for decades. But the federal government isn’t going to bail them out.

They had the right to do whatever they wanted to regarding spending and taxation. The rest of the states have the right to expect them to face the consequences of their actions.

It's Schadenfreude time!

Do I feel sorry for those people? No. Year after year they looked down their noses at conservatives, constantly claiming conservatives were greedy, uncaring, selfish, racists and stupid. But they, the leftist, were pure of heart, righteous and brilliant. In short, they were better people with all their virtue signaling.

Now they can virtue signal themselves out of this mess, except for one thing. Those who've been in the forefront of all these leftist schemes are well off, and people with skills. They can afford to move to a state with conservative values in order to avoid facing the consequences of their stupidity, leaving the least able to fend for themselves.

Do I feel sorry for those left in these states who are unable to leave for various reasons? For the most part, No! When you talk to them about these issues they spout out the same level of weirdness and low information ignorance as the rest, and they're just as arrogant in their ignorance as the rest.

Being ignorant is the norm, it just means we just don't know, and since there's just so much information about everything in the world, we're all in some state of ignorance. But that's fixable with learning. Stupid on the other hand is different. The stupid are the ignorant who refuse to learn.

Life is hard, but it’s really hard when your stupid, and stupid can’t be fixed. It can only be crushed.

The Green New Dealers want 100 trillion dollars!

People keep asking what the Green New Deal will cost, but that is the wrong question. The question is how much do they want? It turns out the New Dealers are pretty clear about the answer — around $100 trillion over ten years. They are working to a very big budget. What gets done depends on the money, not vice versa.

Representative Ocasio-Cortez (who has a degree in economics) and her crew have a clear idea of where the money for the Green New Deal is going to come from and roughly how much they want. As with WW2, the Green New Deal will simply consume about half of American GDP. I am not making this up. That WW2 was a time of great sacrifice and hardship, as a direct result of this dramatic mobilization, does not matter to these folks. War is war, right?

Here it is in its clearest form: “The resolution describes the 10-year plan to transform every sector of our economy to remove GHH and pollution. It says it does this through huge investment in renewables at WW2 scale (which was 40-60% GDP investments).” ...........To Read More......

AOC would make a great poster child for Russia

Is the new Cold War about energy control rather than information and weapons control? Could U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) be an unwitting dupe or a Putin plant? Evidence suggests the answer to the first is yes. The second question may not be answerable, but the facts suggest the answer is a definite maybe.

Let’s examine them, and the state of the world today post WWII.

The United States has established itself as the greatest oil producer in the world ahead of Russia and Saudi Arabia. There is a power dynamic from being oil independent that cannot be ignored. Putin knows this. The Saudis know this. The 184 countries that signed the Paris Accord know this and are aware they need to align themselves with an energy giant. Traditionally that giant was the U.S., but the gild is coming off the lily. Russia has traditionally been painted as the bad guy.

Prosperity around the world from deep earth minerals/fuels is now being weaponized against the West since the oil, natural gas and particularly coal prosperity has led to reduced infant mortality, extended lifespans, and allowed the movement of goods and people anywhere in the world via the diesel engine and jet turbine. Both have done more for the cause of globalization than anything else; and both get their fuels from oil. Without transportation – there is no commerce – since globalized road and air travel dominate most people’s lives in industrialized countries and emerging markets.

Putin knows this. Bin Saud knows this, Xi knows this and our leaders know this. The information war has no clear sides. It’s a fool’s errand to try and win at that game. The guy who was hacking for you yesterday could be hacking for your adversary tomorrow............To Read More.....
