Biden's spokesperson: "Nothing we can do." Grow up





This is silly claim by KJP.







This is a dumb claim



I used gas stoves for years. I've got a carbon monoxide detector, and it didn't go off because of toxic fumes. It may well produce soot, as is claimed, but an auto MUST produce far more. This is absurd.

The Biden Administration wants to force everybody into the silly green schemes. Just say no to the loony left.











When convenience stopped being convenient



This is a personal rant of sorts. Convenience is what being online is about, I would think. If you have to go through a lot of inconvenience in order to keep using it, then what's the advantage?

So is the case today. In order to make changes in accounts, you have to jump through so many hoops that it becomes a real pain in the neck ( or even lower). I've spent the better part of this morning dealing with this issue, not to mention, it is costing me money as well as time.

As of this writing, the issues are continuing, and may be piling up. It has occurred to me that the Big Tech creations are becoming what monopolies become. They know you have no other place to go, so they take advantage. In a free market, that would mean a market opportunity. But do we have a free market anymore?

In some areas, it would appear to be not so.

Anyway, it is all connected with my recent move. I was told that it will take upwards of 3 weeks to process an address change. Plus all the websites need to be updated, yada, yada, yada. No wonder I don't like moving. I didn't even like it when I was younger and more spry. I really hate it now.

So the convenience angle isn't always convenient.

To handle something that you used to handle may mean driving into town. What if you are out in the country like me? Then you may be SOL. Or out a lot of time and gas. All of that on a small budget. What a pain in the neck. Reminds me of C3PO and another character on the 60's TV show "Lost in Space"--- I quote: "oh, the pain."

Is this true, or is it fake?



One might conclude from this that there's a neo-isolationist component to MAGA. Is that a fair interpretation, or is it a highly charged political information attack?

There's a problem here, but proper identification of what it is, is needed.







Credit binge is not evidence of prosperity, but the reverse









As Ronald Reagan once said: "The government is not the solution. Government is the problem."

What was that about saving "our democracy"?



China is an authoritarian government now, or is it not? Even totalitarian governments hold elections. The question is whether or not they are free and fair elections. There's a question about that here. I suppose China holds free and fair elections, right? /sarc Schumer is shown waving the Chinese flag. Would he be waving the Russian Federation flag?

The Chinese have their admirers in the halls of government these days. We have the best government that the world can buy, or so it seems.
