In Case You've Wondered

My blog is where my wandering thoughts are interspersed with stuff I made up. So, if while reading you find yourself confused about the context, don't feel alone. I get confused, too.

If you're here for the stories, I started another blog: scratchingforchange.blogspot.com

One other thing: sometimes I write words you refuse to use in front of children, or polite company, unless you have a flat tire, or hit your thumb with a hammer.

I don't use them to offend; I use them to embellish.

Bell's Palsy

So, my sinuses gave me hell on the left side over the weekend. This morning, I wake up with that side drooping. The doctor prescribed a cortisone and an antibiotic. With the eye not blinking as usual, I'll wear an eye patch, when I'm sleeping, if not other times, when I feel like acting like a pirate.

Pfft!

Wages and Producers

Those without the comfort of a public service job are basically S.O.L., the creation of money in the stimulus package will devalue what they make, and the national debt will increase. It's all smoke an mirrors, and the end result may be worse than just letting the virus take its course.

The Bureaucrat Goes To Heaven (Posted Again)

I posted this a few years ago. It's just as relevant today

***

God: Hmmmm. From my records, I see you hounded innocent individuals for months, ruined them financially and had no regrets, yet you took care of your family with your good salary and perks. This brings me to a quandary.

Bureaucrat: I was doing my job as best as I could.

God: Well, I need to do something. You'll spend the next few decades suffering the same anguish you caused. You'll suffer every night of lost sleep, deprivation to survive the financial disaster and feel every moment of dread of every individual. When this is done, I'll still have a quandary.

Bureaucrat: You mean on when you'll let me into Heaven?

God: No, whether I'll have lunch before, or after I turn you over to Satan.

Harsh Realities

Some things on my mind:

- No matter what the government reports, I have no faith in the accuracy, or a motive for my well-being.

- The Center for Disease Control is a political entity with only self-preservation as a bureaucratic goal.

- The main stream media is not only an uncontrolled political entity, they are promoting the goals of a Communist dictatorship, and using their influence to destroy the United States.

- The supposed virus pandemic is far from the apocalyptic description in the narrative.

- Congress is not a cure for problems, but the source.

- Older people will never be considered anything more than a burden on society. Being in that category brings intense anger.

- Children were deliberately indoctrinated to be weak, ignorant, and to be pawns for a political agenda.

- Our economy is nothing but a play toy for extremely wealthy individuals and families.

- The reduction in Christians is not a byproduct of an informed society, but a goal.

- The only thing that prevented the complete subjugation of the United States is the Second Amendment.

-  Regardless of the outcome of this "quarantine", society will forever change, and some of the changes will not be good.

On the Horizon

I know many people that just can't get by after weeks without working. They'll be desperate for money, irritated because their employer is shut down by government mandate, and not willing to continue with this charade. How they handle this is yet to be seen, but I don't think they'll sit back and wait.

They Haven't Lost Their Minds

Many times, the description of the Democratic Party is "they lost their minds". I don't think that's a good description. "Minions" is  better, and "indoctrinated". After decades of constant propaganda, the education system has created a citizen unwilling to understand the necessity of the drastic measure of the founders of the United States. What the founders knew as the strong effort for complete tyranny, and their willingness to sacrifice everything to prevent this, led to a bloody war to defeat those willing to destroy liberty for power.

So, I don't think they lost their minds. I think they have a plan to remove the restrictions of the Constitution and subjugate the citizens of the United States. I call it treason, and I have no sympathy for those involved. They've chosen a path that only leads to death and destruction. If that's their plan, those in charge need to be removed from any position that allows this to happen. Also, some need to be prosecuted. They need harsh punishment as an example to those contemplating removing liberty.

More Hype than Fact

The internet, friends, family, strangers, officials and even preachers are all reacting to what can basically be considered rumor. Officials are corrupting data, internet "experts" are promoting their own brand of facts, and the entire mess of "information" is swirling around the toilet bowl of society. In the end, if the current virus is as dangerous as many think, there is not protection. It will progress regardless of any efforts to contain it, since it was allowed to be circulated by people for so long.

What's the solution? Stop worrying. If your time it up, you have no control of it. From my perspective, this is all politics, attempts to leverage the economy, and the politicians that acquire wealth and power are doing well. Meanwhile, life goes on, people still need to work, and stopping either only prolongs what will eventually happen.

What I Predict

If they can get Bernie to quit, Joe will be the nominee, have a health emergency, and the Democrats will pull a magic rabbit  candidate out of their butts. Their minions will be mesmerized, the media will fawn over this candidate, and anyone with more sense than a bag of hammers will shake their head.

It's election season (which now is all the time) and logic is thrown away. A less polite society wouldn't tolerate such nonsense, and beat the tar out of some of those so willing to sacrifice honor for politics.

Bi-Annual Complaint

Again, time is not correct, unless you move your clocks ahead one hour. This is ridiculous, but it's ridiculous on a national scale. We should be ashamed.
