The intent of this blog is to promote human equality, human progress, human peace and justice, and optimism. To accomplish this, to encourage the discussion of ideas after identifying and discovering problems, and then creating positive solutions for "we the people," in order to provide for the "general welfare" and "domestic tranquility" of America now and its "posterity" into the future. To encourage an emphasis on separation of religion and state for all, no matter if this is for those "of faith" in a Maker / Creator (Deists, God-loving people, Christians, various people of spirituality) and atheists or agnostics.

You talk down about Uncle Sam as being the problem and you need an attitude adjustment. For human institutions are imperfect, but you insult me and many others with a legacy behind those who fought our American Revolution and gave support to a fledgling American government. They would be hurdling epitaphs of scorn at such Americans who say this crap and repeat lies about Joe Biden and his son. You have no right to your opinion because you are drawing your own facts just based on what someone like Fox or Sean Hannity is telling you. You don’t have the facts so I want to say this: SHUT YOUR GODDAMN MOUTHS. For if you have nothing good to say with facts, you have nothing to say.

I am sorry that it has come to this that I have to say, “SHUT YOUR GODDAMN MOUTHS.” But those who are saying these things as if “all politicians are bad” and “government is bad” and you are listening more to the lies of Ronald Reagan, the trickle-down economics person who advocated supply-side economics which results in the supply-side of the market regulating itself towards monopolies, not regulated capitalism which is designed to keep small business going by way of regulating the big bully fat pigs from decimating their competition. If you believe Reagan was correct in that statement, then you insult me and my ancestors who date back to the American Revolution, particularly a maternal great-grandfather who fought in the American Revolution and, as a wealthy person, gave money to boost a new government which had none. You want to turn things around, then stop your GODDAMN complaining about government and politicians and give money to this government. Stop your GODDAMN complaining and trying to avoid paying taxes. You insult me, so therefore I describe you as an evil person who needs damnation from God.

Joe Biden is a good man with good intentions for bringing America together. He has done a good job, in spite of the sabotage by Republicans who work more on the basis that they don’t want Biden to succeed than they do about fixing and healing America. Biden does not want red and blue, he wants red, white, blue with yellow fringe. Stop the GODDAMN attitude about whether it is red or blue. Stop the GODDAMN attitude that it is Democrat or Republican. Stop the GODDAMN attitude that it is liberal and conservative because you know what? You are stupid and don’t know the differences between the parts of the political spectrum. And I address both those who claim to be conservative or claim to be liberal because you all dig in your GODDAMN heels regarding actions needed to solve our nation’s problems and do so in the name of your values. You could maintain your freaking values, but compromise, to work together, on the actions for the direction America should be heading. Biden is a good man, as imperfect as he may be. He is far better than Trump and the Trumpicans who divide America. And stop your GODDAMN attitude, thrust on you by people who don’t have the facts, that all Democrats are bad. Stop that GODDAMN shit because you have no facts to back up what you say. You insult good Americans in the process, to the point of disenfranchising many good Americans so they stay home from voting.

Is this nation and its government perfect? Not on your life. Would I prefer the parliamentary democracy which my ancestors rejected in a war? You bet because it is easier to have a multi-party state than to have a two-party or one-party state. But I live with what our ancestors say and I speak out with words, not freaking guns, like the Americans who need an attitude adjustment do in mowing down their own people. Would I prefer something other than an income or sales tax when CONSERVATIVES like William F. Buckley, Jr., once proposed a value-added tax which would not penalize Americans for having an income or force American small business to cut into their profits and pay for lawyers and accountants do their ledgers – for the sake of taxes. But I don’t try to avoid paying taxes in order to get my point across. I also don’t use freaking guns to do so, either, you bastard Americans who claim insurrections are the reason for the 2nd Amendment. Again, you insult m ancestor who picked up a gun against a mentally ill king in England and despised the insurrection in western Pennsylvania (the Whiskey Rebellion) with its GODDAMN insurrection of the late 1700s under our first president, George Washington who fought for liberty against a tyrant in England. Then this ancestor and other wealthy folks gave money to our government for the war effort and for INFRASTRUCTURE to build America. Like all those who helped build transportation (i.e., a canal in upstate NY and General / President Eisenhower’s interstate road system for ALL 50 states whether a separate island or part of the 48 on the continent – for ALL Americans so poke fun all you want at the name of interstate and just let it be that it is an expressway system, not an interstate system), research and development to make America better and provide a better Internet access and phone system with audio which is clear as a bell. Infrastructure improvement to give us a phone system and better Internet access comparable to what other capitalist democracies and socialist democracies have – and Americans are denied due to the GODDAMN attitudes of those who sabotage our progress and are contentious with those who are TRYING to fix such infrastructure. Go blow your GODDAMN attitude out where the sun don’t shine.

I hate speaking in this manner with damnation and GODDAMN. But I am not taking the Lord’s name in vain because how do you know that God does not wish to say GODDAMN those white supremacists who ruin God’s children? How do you know he does not feel that way and will do so after death of such individuals, but right now leaves it in our hands to do something? Are you certain about this because I am not. If I were certain THEN I would be doing blasphemy against GOD. But I am here on earth to work with my brothers and sisters in Christ, not to condemn a government.

What happened between the words of JFK and his inauguration in 1961 and the lousy and despicable words of a charismatic man named Reagan, in 1981? JFK repeated, in words, what my ancestors actually did: “ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.” Reagan’s foul mouth in 1981: “government is the problem.” Those words have had such a freaking lousy impact on too many GODDAMN Americans who need an attitude adjustment. But what happened between 1961 and 1981?

Well. White supremacists lost their position with the passage of the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act. Today, they block, even with Democrat freaking Manchin of white racist West Virginia, with more power than what GOOD people in the U.S. Senate seem to have. Are they proud boys for doing this lousy s**t?

Besides white supremacists being taken down a notch or two by passage of those two acts in Congress, which was a good thing, what else happened? We had a fabrication of a lie about Vietnam in the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution. It was done for the gratification of that white supremacist core in Texas who had money in oil. They wanted to control the world and used communism as the target to help them do so, sending thousands upon thousands of American youth to their deaths, while maintaining the killing of fetus illegal. Put those out of the womb on the line of fire and sometimes to death, but make sure we don’t kill more fetus in the process, so as to avoid the production of more slaves to take the place of those sent to Vietnam.

Thus, in 1973, we had a good thing called Roe v. Wade, which ultimately opened up discussion about the topic, protected young girls, (not from the noose, but from the coat hangers), and helped CURTAIL abortions in America, and not always increase the numbers of abortions. This was a regulatory attitude to help CURTAIL abortion, not be a human being forcing down our throats an attitude. There are statistics and facts which back this up, taught to me by a Roman Catholic, too, not afraid to stand up to a lainbrained pope who claims to be “representative of God” (now there is a blasphemy as it was Jesus Christ who was the human representative of God, not a damn pope; more blasphemy there than with statements with the word, GODDAMN).

I also have ancestors who fought in the American Revolution and in battles in America BEFORE the American Revolution, who were part of the clergy class to challenge, by way of the ANGLICAN Catholics, that blasphemy of a pope with regard to being a “representative of God on earth.” Certain about all of this? Then you need an attitude adjustment because we need to seek wisdom, not certainty. A Roman Catholic helped me gain wisdom on this topic of abortion and abandon any certainty, by using facts and statistics, not emotions and contrived and fabricated facts in an individual’s foul brain.

What else happened in that period between 1961 and 1981? JFK was assassinated, white racists got their benefit with the wealthy oil people fabricating a means to go to war which never should have happened. Just like with a Drew Scott Decision before the Civil War, we are doing this to “appease” a group of Americans, while abandoning the thoughts about having justice done. This time around, the Vietnam Conflict was done to “appease the Texas oil bastards who were white racists.” To appease them after civil rights and voting rights were legislated. Any Democrats who remain Democrats after that time, rather than switch to Republicans and align with white supremacists there, have their images tarnished. In other words, they refuse to go along with white supremacists, so Republicans target them to whip their asses and tarnish them with hatred, proclaiming that “all politicians are bad” and thus the attitude s**t I see which helps to bolster the election of Republicans with white power and banishing anyone who does not go along. Manchin is a Democrat who resembles the old Democrats of white supremacy, rather than move to the Republican Party as so many other white supremacist Democrats have done.

What else happened in that period between 1961 and 1981? Watergate and a resignation of a president. A moderate Republican president, Gerald Ford, who did a really stupid thing to destroy the moderate base in the Republican Party and ultimately losing his election to Democrat Jimmy Carter: pardon Nixon. When I describe my liking Gerald Ford as the last great Republican leader we had, what is the first thing I hear in reply? A distaste for Ford in pardoning Nixon. They also would say how they voted for Carter, not Ford, in the process. Meanwhile anti-government Reagan and his motley crew split the Republican Party in two and helped defeat moderate Ford in the presidential election of 1976. I don’t say these things about Ford and that election, based on my own facts. No. I say this things after listening to people talk about Ford.I listen and I am a great listener, something Reagan, Bush, and Trump never do. Trump, when he does not like what he hears, turns on people who say such things, with a vengeance – and pits his lousy followers to go after those of us who criticize rather than accept blindly, as if they are facts and the truth, what Trump, Hannity, Fox, and the herd mentality of goons for Trump have to say. You do this and you thus work to disenfranchise voters who are really confused by all of this, with your GODDAMN loudmouths of false information about Biden, Democrats and the fact that all politicians are bad, ignoring the ability to differentiate between the good and the bad, whether the good be in many Democrats or in a number of Republicans who are being silenced today by a dictatorial leadership of Trumpicans and a man who made his money in the U.S. Senate, stealing from the American taxpayer: Mitch McConnell.

You with your lousy attitude towards government and “Uncle Sam” want to hate government, right? Hate Mitch McConnell, not government. Hate the GODDAMN PACS who push our politicians into the direction of prioritizing the winning of elections, not doing what is good for ALL Americans (Manchin, for example). Direct your hatred at something other than the government, but at the lousy Supreme Court justices who changed the words of the constitution from “we the people” to “we the big fat cats and big fat pigs of the plutocracy,” with a lousy decision called Citizens United.

With this decision, people have worked to appease the fat cats and fat pigs, not WE THE PEOPLE. They set a course to pitting Americans against Americans, based upon the foul language of Reagan in 1981 and the love of money attitude of lousy lawyers who drain our tax dollars with frivolous lawsuits of personal injury and workman’s comp (blocking the ideas about healthcare for all in the process). These idiots a bunch of lousy neocons with a love of money and claiming to represent conservatism, when they don’t.

I am more conservative than those bastards who proclaim they are such today, but are really neocon fascists. But no one seems to differentiate and know the difference, do they? Unless one reads the words of economists, commerce people, and business people (and others across the board), including those with a “moral sentiment” (see the book by capitalist theorist, Adam Smith titled, The Theory of Moral Sentiment) and a warning flag about embracing the idea of selfishness and a “love of money,” which was forced upon this nation by a lousy woman named Ayn Rand who, coming from the Soviet Union, had little or no knowledge about Adam Smith and the TRUTH about capitalism v. Marxism. No one seems to know this truth, as far as I can see.

Unless one reads words of columnists who are right, left, liberal, conservative, moderate, Democrats, Republicans, black or white or of any kind, and gets the overall gist of what is happening, they feel helpless when listening only to the bloviating political analysis for which we purchase – FORCED to purchase – on these grand cable television crap with 350 channels, like purchasing all the food on a menu in a restaurant and never allowed to have “on demand” capabilities for this lousy bloviating political analysis.

Since the Bush Recession, newspapers have been overrun by the turds of lovers of money. Do you think this just happened with no strategizing? Think again and learn to gain wisdom, not certainty and dismissal of the truth. With fabrication of what was happening to newspapers as a result of a recession. The new guys brought in at the forced retirement of those who had been doing a good job in newspapers, had a hidden agenda. They had a strategy as part of this hidden agenda with an idea that they could rake in money and to hell with the demand of customers on the DEMAND side of the market. They had a self-fulfilling prophesy for destruction of the newspaper industry and just raking in the money for themselves and with no desire to consider the best practices for profit which benefits more people.

The fabrication by these nutso mentally ill lovers of money is working too well. The results have been a makeover of the newspapers only for the heads of the corporations, the fat cats at the top with a top-down control which ignores the needs of the people. Their lousy makeovers eliminated the publication of a broad array of columnists. The lousy makeover by these lovers of money eliminated many wonderful things about newspapers, thus driving down its readership so these fat ass fat pigs could then feel better about what they were doing to rake in the dough.

In the name of technological change, or change just for the sake of change (when it were not as broke as these bastard SOB fat pigs were saying from the top), they worked to fix something that truly was not broke, or at least broke as badly as was being claimed (and a refusal to fix the things which could INCREASE, not DECREASE readership levels). Thing did not need to be fixed in the manner to which they were speaking. Blatant lies and fabrications by liars with a love of money.

Within our great and wonderful IMPERFECT institution we call our government of democracy, the things which TRULY ARE broken, like gerrymandering, crushing the rights of Americans to vote, systemic racism, infrastructure projects which the wealthy bastard fat pigs of America refuse to support, whether by way of government or not, and these bastards are unwilling to help fund such necessary projects for the sake of America. There are levies in New Orleans which might need fixing, dams which might need fixing, improvements in R&D which have been shipped off to Europe and Asia (and go ahead, find some way to shoot holes in what I say here because it might help you feel better about “winning” and only for yourself). Don’t bother to accept what I say and look into details because you bastards with the attitude and need of an attitude adjustment only want to win. You bastards with the egotism of a vicious barbarian and you just want to falsely name me as a liberal when I am moderate. You want to stain me because I am a Democrat and never even consider that I put America first, not Democrats or Republicans or liberals or conservatives or blue states or red states. You bastards wish to hurdle crap at me behind my back. If that makes you feel better, then GODDAMN you shameful people who do this to me and others. No substantiation. No evidence.

Side note: In fact, a person remarked that the stupidity of Manchin in an op-ed he recently wrote was not substantiated by evidence and facts. What else is new for bluedog Democrats and Trumpicans who are white supremacists? What else is new among the lousy KKK-infused bluedog Democrats and the Trumpicans?

You don’t accept what I say and look into the details of what has happened. I am sick and tired of this sabotage of problem-solving for things which need fixing, while invoking fixes in things like newspapers (and other areas) which are based on fabrications and are meant to give wealth to a few younger people, while denying wealth to others.

I grew up in the midst of something better in America. I watched the improvements in race relations, while noting the areas where there was a lack of improvement. I grew up in the midst of the success of a REGULATED CAPITALISM designed to PROTECT CAPITALIST COMPETITION AND SMALL BUSINESS. Did I say this before? Did you get the point yet? In 1981, Reagan, with Ayn Rand enthusiasts and others, began a process to rip apart the great parts of the America I saw. In 1977, I had a chance to take a teaching job in Canada, but was not sure I wanted to leave the nation in which I was born and which I describe here as progress in this nation. Sad to say, with the idiotic attitudes which pit American against American, based on a lack of substantiation for the truth and the evidence which backs up the truth and the obstruction of justice which I have seen in various forms, promulgated by Trumpicans in their lousy leadership of the Republican Party, I do see Democrats and Joe Biden to be much better, even as imperfect as they are. So if you want to put down Uncle Sam and follow the fabrications which try to say “all Democrats are bad,” then go to hell and may damnation be upon you. I find good Democrats and I find good Republicans, too. But right now, the leadership of the Republican Party has gone all to hell and is evil. If these people don’t want to associate with such bad attitudes of the Republican Party, then leave it and join with the Democrats. Otherwise, you do a disfavor to the United States of America and its wonderful democracy, even if that democracy has some imperfections. Don’t condemn politics because your overriding emotions are so blasted bad that they cloud the overall picture regarding politics, Democrats, and Republicans. Clouded by thugs like Trump, Hannity, and others who use their money and love of money to dictate to the American people their desire to white supremacy and control by means of a hidden agenda.

I hate saying things this way, but none of what I say, or what others say, sink in. The bastards of proud white boys grab at freaking guns, not words with FACTS and EVIDENCE and TRUTH, hoping to justify the use of the 2nd amendment for their lousy attitudes and insurrection. Damnation to Matt Gaetz and the NRA with its false notions regarding the 2nd amendment. May you go to hell. Damnation to Trump and the Trumpicans who falsely lead the Republican Party. Damnation to anyone who stereotypes Democrats OR Republicans in a hateful manner and based on false information.

I just cannot, and refuse to, stop pointing these things out. My hope is that what I say will sink in with the people who can express a collective voice for what is good about America (not racism) and be able to promote a collective voice for having fun in fixing the imperfections in America.

Hearing anyone speak badly about our government with the name, Uncle Sam, and I want to smear them with my vomit and put it all over them. I want to puke on them and throw a cream pie in their face. For it is such people who make our lives miserable. They marginalize voters in favor of the Trumpican effort, as the Trumpicans rejoice about splitting America apart.

These people who insult me by blaming “Uncle Sam” are absurd and stupid. They are getting their cues from Ronald Reagan who said at his 1981 inauguration that “government is the problem.” BULLSHIT on Ronald Reagan and too bad I did not speak loudly against it in 1981. Alas. I was working for the U.S. Air Force and stupid idiotic Reagan was commander-in-chief in 1981. Reagan was a disgusting fool. People think all government people and politicians are bad when that is not true. I have given evidence over and over again about how most Democrats and SOME Republicans care about the people and the common folk. Only a freaking lousy man from a white racist state and a Democrat can be so terrible in putting political measures for “bipartisanship” before his country, as do the Republicans most of the time. This is not about blue or red. It is about peace and justice and voting rights for all. Stupid freaking Manchin can go to hell. And he plays up to the GD white supremacists with no brains at all, proclaiming he is defending this country. BULLSHIT on that notion. BULLSHIT on Manchin. Puke on Manchin, as well as the Trumpicans who are sabotaging efforts to get something accomplished, proclaiming they want to be “bipartisan.” BULLSHIT ON THAT fabrication of a lie, too.

Dumb idiotic Reagan, too, pushed for deregulation, supply side economics which encourages monopolies and trickle-down economics. And someone thinks jackass Reagan was good but “Uncle Sam” is bad. Damnation on anyone who figures that. Damnation on such idiocratic ways. Damnation.

At his inauguration in 1961, twenty years before dumb jackass Reagan, President Kennedy said, “ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.” JFK echoed the thoughts of America from its founding, when my ancestors said the same thing. If the GODDAMN Republicans wish to fight infrastructure, let them use their GODDAMN money like my ancestors did and contribute to infrastructure and the future of America, rather than to their GODDAMN PACS for the purposes of elections and not for America. GODDAMN these people today because they insult MY legacy and the legacy of many other Americans. I repeat. GODDAMN THESE LOUSY AMERICANS who are Trumpicans and call themselves Republicans. While we are at it, GODDAMN Manchin, too, from the state of West Virginia which also gave us a KKK member in the U.S. Senate named Robert Byrd. No wonder Manchin wants to appease his voters because they we are being controlled by freaking lousy white racists like those in West Virginia and other areas. You know. The people at U. of West Virginia who, in a 1959 football game with Syracuse University and a black man named Ernie Davis, pelted soda bottles at the SU team when they ran onto the field. Freaking lousy human beings who have no respect for their fellow Americans and now Manchin shivers in his boots in order to win the votes of freaking lousy white racists in his state. A coward who does not know how to be a man and stand up for America and ALL human beings in America. GODDAMN Manchin, too.

I don’t like to be saying these things and being in a war with idiots who have such GODDAMN power in America, from Kentucky’s McConnell to other jackasses, while Americans suffer in this GODDAMN world of contention for the sake of white honkies and the dictatorship they want. Manchin, oppose dictatorship of white racists, you jackass.

NOTE: it is quite possible that WordPress blocks this article from being sent to my personal email in Google. Damn WordPress for doing this and not being willing to help me out in stopping it.

The June 5, 2021, op-ed by Thomas Friedman (New York Times; title of article: “Progress in getting fossils off fossil fuels” or under another title: “The ‘Mean Greens’ are Forcing Exxon to Clean up its Act”) was well-received by this author. Reading the first article title, I think I like it better than the one put on the article by editors of the New York Times (the second title). I believe it is because of a conversation which I had with a former upstate New York propane gas business man who moved to Florida and opened a seafood restaurant in the Tampa Bay area, when talking about the man’s friend and a vice-president at the company where I was working by the name of John Hancock. You see, Mr. Hancock headed the “fossil fuels” division of the electric utility where I was working. No surprise that this “fossil fuels” head was a friend of a former business man who sold a type of “fossil fuel” in the Southern Tier of New York, near Binghamton and Endicott, the former home of IBM. When I mentioned to this person from upstate New York that I was working with John Hancock at the electric utility, this guy from upstate New York laughed and said, “well you say hello to that old fossil fool friend of mine!” To which I did. Thus, with Friedman’s article titled, from newspaper editors in the Northern Tier of Pennsylvania, something regarding “fossil fuels” rather than the “”mean greens” indicated by editors at the New York Times, I chuckled over this.

My dad told how, in the 1940s, he would drive a huge truck full of hay produced on Grandpa Cornwell’s farm to a New York City barge and then have it shipped to Cuba on the barge and sold to Cuban horse farmers there.

(Side note: my Cuban colleague from Florida told me about how HER grandfather owned a horse farm in Cuba in the 1940s and spoke about getting shipments of hay from America, but she never knew some of it was from upstate New York! Small world, is it not?).

Back to the story about shipping hay. My dad reported that, on his return trip from New York City, he would stop in the hills near Scranton-Wilkes Barre, PA, and pick up a load of coal and bring that load home and sell to customers in the Southern Tier, in the same area where the guy I mention about “fossil fuels” had a propane gas business (before moving to Florida). My dad, as he got older, went to work for that propane gas man and was working for him in 1948 when Grandpa Cornwell died at his home in Endwell, NY. After the gas man left the Southern Tier, about 1965, my father started his own propane gas business and appliance retail sales, which lasted about three decades after that. That business my dad had you can see today in the facility on Route 38 south of Newark Valley called Suburban Propane. Propane is great around here because the stupid residents of this town have voted against putting in natural gas, which some of us would like to have and perhaps could generate our own electricity independent of NYSEG. Voting against business opportunities here, whether the stupid Trump-like tea-totalers and Prohibition, dictating THEIR desires upon a population, removing the possibility of “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” There. I had to get that part into my op-ed. Nevertheless, coal and propane, together with hay produced in New York. Quite a combination.

Now, tied to all of this is what Friedman says about the “fossils” of Exxon-Mobil” and how my thoughts go to the Florida propane gas man, seafood restaurant man, grouper fishing fleet man, whom I knew in the 1980s and 1990s in Florida. Friedman reports that the fossils within the Exxon-Mobil organization are being challenged by new investors who are described as the “mean green” crowd because they also would like Exxon-Mobil to diversify for the future and expand into non-fossil fuels. If anyone follows my own writings, they would discover that I have said something similar to Friedman, but without a reference to Exxon-Mobil. I have said that we need a balance between the green technologies and fossil fuels. Rather than building pipelines which pollute the atmosphere, build stockpiles of fossil fuels for the future, in the way FDR prescribed building federal savings and loan organizations, war bonds, victory bonds, and promoted the March of Dimes to fight a polio pandemic, for long-term investment into the future. But alas, Republicans have destroyed the means of long-term investment, even long-term housing investments with the greedy selfish approach of flipping homes, Florida over-developing new homes for the benefit of developers and banks, not the common folk, and an increase of common folk in Florida being left homeless because they cannot afford the homes of plantation-owning-mentality real estate people in Florida. Slum lords purchasing recycled homes and selling at a higher price or renting at astronomical rates and claiming it is “free market capitalism,” which is BS for “me, myself, and I” capitalism of the supply-side fat cat order and no concern for the demand side. Then when the Democrats wish to push money to more people and to the common folk, Mitch McConnell and gang refuse to work out a compromise, but insist that it ONLY be the way they want it. How does one expect Democrats to take this? Lying down and up where the sign doesn’t shine? Saving for long-term interest, whether in fossil fuels, real estate, or other resources, rather than promoting bank-style, “me, myself, and I” mentality of selfishness and instant gratification really destroys this nation, with Mitch McConnell, who made his money by being a U.S. Senator and nothing else, leads the damn charge and thinks he is a Teddy Roosevelt on San Juan Hill, when he is nothing but a lazy dumb ass who made him money, not by EARNING it, but by stealing it from taxpayers and lobbyists. The dictator on Capitol Hill, telling Republicans how they should vote against anything the Democrats propose, not working out a compromise unless the Democrats do as the McConnell Trumpican dictators want to have done. It is refreshing to hear of a bit of balance and moderation, as reported about Exxon-Mobil by Thomas Friedman. Will this last? I hope so.

Tied to this, as well, is my war with Gannett and the newspaper industry about delivery of print copies of newspapers in little Newark Valley. My grandfather came to this town because he was a classmate to the propane-seafood giant of Florida and that man’s father. I am told they were classmates at Syracuse University, so my grandfather, who became a teacher, was enabled to get a job teaching here in this town. Two of his children, including my mother, worked for this propane gas king, son of the SU classmate to my grandfather. What does this have to do with anything? Because I heard it told that my grandfather, who grew up in Fabius, NY, near Syracuse, and read the Syracuse Newspapers’ Post-Standard, Herald-Tribune, and Sunday Herald-American, was able to have those Syracuse newspapers delivered to his home in Newark Valley, NY, which is situated halfway between Binghamton and Ithaca, where there are two newspapers which are owned by Gannett. (There was once a third newspaper in Binghamton, the Sun-Bulletin, which was owned by an independent local publisher, then bought out by Gannett).

Thus, as I say things about this, I suppose someone could also conclude I am a “fossil” about reading newspapers. I wish to point out that my position about reading print copies is not fossil, but a responsible way of approaching reading which is acceptable to many people who are not fossils, but are ignored by the dictatorship of Gannett and its USA Today Network, with no capitalist competition to provide an alternative. Yet, I fully believe that moderation, as what Friedman describes happening with Exxon-Mobil, is fully possible in the newspaper industry. We need to rid the newspaper industry of those who grasp technology and force in a dictatorial way, their notions upon everyone and never acknowledging the words of us “fossils.” In this case, reading a print copy and re-implementing the details of the newspaper, as it once existed before people began dropping newspapers when the newspapers were changed as the “old coots” retired due to a Recession that did not beat around the bush and these young bastards grasped at a means of “change for the sake of change” so I can satisfy only, me, myself, and I, individualism, and these fat pigs and fat cats don’t give a damn about others. They fabricate reasons for why this happens in the newspaper industry and never wish to help the “fossils” out.

Kudos to Friedman, too, for revealing the progress being made at Exxon-Mobil. We can only hope it continues. We will try to continue to find Mr. Friedman’s column again and again. By the way. To those in America who are so stupid and having a lack of desire to learn in a lifelong learning environment, the Friedman op-ed was a very lengthy one with plenty of details to help us learn about what is happening, rather than relying on a quick video snippet which does not reveal the full details. Like a Sixty Minutes on CBS which is NOT a video snippet, but an in-depth report on what is happening, without all the BS of political analysis and bloviating political idiocy. Funny thing. Every time I speak with people about this topic of bloviating political analysis on cable television today, they tell me the same thing I am thinking. WE DESPISE THAT AND WE ARE THE PEOPLE TRYING TO TELL THE FAT CATS THAT IS NOT WHAT WE WANT. Do the freaking fat cats and pigs listen? NAH. They refuse to listen. And why is this junk like Fox News and others, so successful? Because the bastards of that network get paid much money and the viewers have no choice or “on demand” service for Fox, CNN, or MSNBC, or CSNBC, and others. They make money from ME when I never watch the damn crap, but I pay for delivery of a newspaper each morning and get nothing but crappy service and no one to fix the service.

And Sixty Minutes? I pay for Binghamton’s channel 12 which delivers the program through Spectrum, but I COULD receive it as a free broadcast, but that is rough to do. It is rough, due to the stupid commissioners of the FCC who side with big corporate fat cats in helping them rake in enough money so that freaking Sean Hannity has enough money to purchase the hate monger’s mansion in Palm Beach – the late Rush Limbaugh. I have done better things to deserve an award than Rush Limbaugh and it was not due to bloviating hatred, either, but having a love for all human beings and never concerned about the color of the skin.

Sure, I am contentious against the lack of balance, moderation, regulated capitalism and balance, and the checks and balances designed into our system of democracy. My contention and hatred is with the evil spirit and the one who runs the evil spirit, or devil or Satan, with his demons like Trump and other Trumpicans.

Interesting, the drawing of “Lady Liberty” in a New York Times book review of a book titled, Noise. Rather than holding a scale to balance out justice, the image is a sarcastic reminder of the legal profession today with its ill desires of love of money when “Lady Liberty” holds two dice (you can view this image by accessing the link to the book review). Believe me, there was a day when FCC commissioners and others did make some reasonable decisions not tailored to big business and we did not have to rely on love of money to decide our justice. My contempt of this system says one thing: peace does not exist without TRUE justice for all of us. That is possible, so when are we going to collectively get to work, write to our leaders and those in business and express what we wish to see happen. I hear it in the voices of people who say they don’t like to pay for entire menus of cable television offerings or who don’t want to pay for electronic editions. What is holding people back from speaking out? Fear of Republican and fat cat retribution?

Perhaps I am saving the best for last when I offer a final remark about Friedman’s op-ed about fossil fuels. There is the point about moderation, but also about weaning America of the oil controllers in Saudi Arabia, a nation which sent people of its monarchy to New York City on 9/11/2001 and which has a monarchy which inspires the Taliban and others to behead their own citizens. Unacceptable; and don’t give me the BS designed to shoot holes in these facts with fabricated BS about Biden and his son. The truth gets buried under fabrication of theories. Fantasies and conspiracies and the truth gets buried. And a people in the USA who have no brains and are able to differentiate between fabrication and truth because, as the Nazis say, “we can tell a lie over and over again and it becomes the truth.” There is no lie about the fact that Saudi monarchists were responsible for 9/11, yet we went after a foe of the Saudis while the Taliban and friends of the Saudis went free in another form of obstructing justice. Peace without justice cannot happen. It was Obama and his administration which brought down Osama Bin Laden and don’t you ever forget that as fabrications are tossed out there and you are expected to believe such fabrications and are unable to discern the truth.

Friedman’s point is about weaning America of the Middle East dictatorial control of oil and to do that, we need to encourage the “fossils” and the “mean greens,” together, or it won’t happen. We also need to designate oil from the ground as a reserved saving account for the days when oil is less available. I add this. That the “fossils” and the “technologists” of the newspaper and media markets need to work together, too, and right now, Gannett is like a centralized newspaper from communist Soviet Union called Pravda, not a pertinent American newspaper with an interest in local news, which was the content which got Gannett off the ground, originally.

Competitive capitalist forces between the “mean green” and the “fossils,” as well as the media “technologists” and the “fossils” can help us to bring down the prices and provide better service because that is what has been proven is the important part of capitalist competition. The goal in newspapers should not be the lousy one with blinders on and a total direction to embrace technology only.

To control the prices, government wage and price controls, pushed by liberals in the past, are not the answer. The answer is regulated capitalist competition and moderation in implementation, as Friedman points out in the energy industry and Exxon-Mobil.

And one note about the faculty of Florida where I found my career. Because the faculty salaries in Florida suck so badly, why did I have a concern about losing some of the state’s best educators to other areas of the nation? There were several I have known who departed Florida and did so at younger ages, before becoming entrenched with a fear of age always being considered last as it loses out to youth. It is called capitalist competition with an ability for, in this case, faculty to find better pay elsewhere. No one could consider the me, myself, and I instantaneous heads of the organizations about this, as we attempted to negotiate with them. They only saw their own salaries and contempt for removing the cap on FICA deductions to a more fair one for all (justice for all) as being better than making education better by keeping good educators rather than considering better salaries in order to keep the better ones. And those better educators went to states where they, too, could gain tenure, which the high-paid heads of the organization disdained, for some reason, and never would negotiate something feasible and better for all. In this respect, there is one big problem here. Capitalist competition would be better if the doors around the world were more open, as we talk about the globalization of business, but never consider the globalization of education and other items within our cultures. For me, I was fully recognized in the international community, but denied access to it by America and Florida. We don’t have open doors with Canada and other nations, regarding faculty (and other careers), so it makes it nearly impossible for open capitalist competition on a world-wide basis. When I get treated like crap by lousy Republican administrators, especially if I am part of a union, I lose my ability to capitalist competitiveness where I am accepted in a large audience.

Energy. Newspapers and the media. Education. Information industry. All “industries” with a common thread, but also differences in how they should be handled. Friedman’s article points to energy. I have brought up the fringe elements in the other areas where there is a common thread.

NOTE: it is quite possible that WordPress blocks this article from being sent to my personal email in Google. Damn WordPress for doing this and not being willing to help me out in stopping it.

The other day, I picked up a newspaper that was not from Binghamton. Binghamton has a newspaper which has scaled back its content, lost circulation in the process and now wants to fulfill its fat cat, Dickey’s plans to eliminate print copies and go exclusively to digital. The claim is a blatant false claim that “newspapers are dying, so therefore we need to only cater to the younger people with digital.” BS. That is a false statement and a blatant means of sabotaging the newspaper industry for the sake of more dollars i the individualist jackasses at the top dictatorial levels. It’s not true. Newspapers have reduced content and gone digital for one purpose only. To dictate and force technology and the COSTS of technology upon us all, the same as a lousy cable television industry has done to us without offering ala carte in choices of channels but DICTATING and FORCING Americans to pay huge amounts for television we don’t want to watch. It’s like going into a restaurant and paying for EVERYTHING on the menu, whether we eat any of it or not. Cable television making money from consumers with 250 or 350 channels or more, THEN making money from commercials from bastards like big pharma and lousy lawyers, all of them moaning and groaning about not making enough money. That is a boldface lie to which no Americans will speak proudly and bravely out en masse against. Newspapers, too, charging for digital and paper copies when many of us refuse to use the digital copies and COULD choose to purchase a huge number of archived newspapers from Newspapers.com. The newspapers make double the amount and force us to pay for the entire menu, like what would happen should we visit one restaurant. However, it was nice to recently read a newspaper from outside Binghamton and find an op-ed columnist which is no longer available in Binghamton in a print copy. Thomas L. Friedman, we were blessed to read your column once again and to LEARN (as Americans should be trying to do) from the overall bulk of information which is available out there, not the jackass shallow crap from a menu of entertainment on cable television. We want a print copy of a newspaper that contains op-eds from Friedman, George Will (conservative), Maureen Dowd (liberal), Paul Krugman (liberal), Michael Gerson (conservative), Kathleen Parker (moderate), Cynthia Tucker (moderate), Leonard Pitts (anti-white-racist and moderate-liberal), Jeff Jacoby (?), and many local columnists, religious writers, food and recipe writers, advice columnists, puzzle games (enough with the GD video games in which players on a basketball punch each other out) with interests tailored to people at the local level. America is being dictated and forced into accepting digital copies of newspapers and huge menus of lousy entertainment on cable television. We want the columnists and others back in the newspapers and stop the GD false claim, after eliminating and paring back so much of it, “no one is interested.” Of course, no one is interested and cancel subscriptions because these young whippersnappers taking over the industry following the Recession of 2008, have deliberately set up things this way – for their own individualistic, selfish, greedy, egotistical, snot Ayn Rand ways. Thank you for giving me a light at the end of the tunnel with a choice (“life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness”) to enable me to purchase another newspaper. Only wish I could get the other newspaper delivered to me in print copy. But of course the snots like Dickey head of Gannett, and others, wish to snuff out that light at the end of the tunnel because, like jackass, Trump, they don’t like the criticism from loyal readers and newspaper subscribers of print editions. Dickey face and the others should go to plumb h-e-double-hockey-sticks and burn there in their own stench of evil anti-human-being styles. BTW. If you read this and are so low-life scum so as to reject lengthy detail in an op-ed or article, don’t bother reading the Thomas Friedman op-ed to which I just referenced. It might be too hard on your damn brain. Is this short and to the point enough? Tastes like chicken.

It is 11 AM Sunday, June 6. Our morning newspapers have not yet been delivered here in the Binghamton, NY, area. We are being treated like shit by fat pigs at the top of the Gannett Corporation which refuses to give us the name and phone number of the person who is mocking us with retribution because we complain. I can only hope that these idiots all go to h-e-double-hockey-sticks. SOBs and lousy human beings who have no concern for fellow Americans.

Thank you, CBS News, for your report today (Sunday, June 6, 2021) about the state of policing in America. The story about the pastor in a small town not much larger than where I reside in upstate New York really helped to understand the need for improving police coverage. That pastor had become the sole police force in the town. Here in this town, the one-man police force was abandoned and essentially, “defunded,” as the law enforcement was given to the county sheriff and deputies. The one-man police force was a disaster in his attitude towards people, so that was what inspired the change to sheriff and elimination of the one-man force which was the same as in this town in the story here.

The results have been passing law enforcement to a Republican sheriff who refuses to work with the Democrats who run this state and help to reform the attitudes of law enforcement. Rather than this little village being able to fire the other guy and find someone like this pastor in Moville, they abandoned it to a force run by someone even worse. Pastor Edgar is Police Chief Rodriguez. He exemplifies what should be in law enforcement. He represents someone who is not so interested in WHAT the offender did, as to getting to the details of WHY the offender ended up doing what they did.

Police Chief Rodriguez reminds me of a retired NYPD police officer who, upon retirement, heard the call of God and trained to become a pastor. In speaking with this former NYPD police officer, much of what I heard him say some of the same things Pastor Rodriguez said in this account. Yet, some of the most adverse opposition to reforms in policing have come from interviews of NYPD union people in New York City. For shame on those men. For shame on any sheriff who resists the reform.

The final statistics in the report today was to report statistics from polls in America which indicate that slightly more than 50% of Americans are opposed to “defunding,” while only 18% support it. I am part of the percentage not reported by such a survey in being supportive of NOT defunding police if they demonstrate a strong movement to reforming to follow the ways of Pastor Edgar / Chief Rodriguez. Otherwise, if the question were asked properly in the survey, I would be part of that larger number. I would wager that, should the question be tailored about whether the support for NOT defunding would be only if the reform was enforced properly, the results in favor of this move would be far higher than the slight number above 50%. Whatever the questions were on this survey, if there was a “not sure,” I would have been part of the “not sure” crowd. Because support or not, the third choice being “not sure” is the ONLY answer I would give.

Thanks, again, CBS News, for your report this beautiful Sunday morning.

We never received our Binghamton Press & Sun-Bulletin. Again after how many days that this has happened? Yesterday the morning newspaper arrived by 2 PM. At least we received it. How many times have we complained? How many times has the customer service at Gannett made a promise to fix it? I really believe them, don’t you know, to be telling the truth?

I am the “man in the arena.” This “man in the arena” was described by Teddy Roosevelt in a speech he gave at the Sorbonne in Paris on 23 April 1910. This date was a number of years before I was born, but is on the same day in April which is my birthday. Teddy was disappointed in the Republican president, Taft, who had taken over after Teddy decided not to run for office again (1908). He did run in 1912 as a third-party candidate and became the first candidate to come close to winning the presidency by a third-party candidate. He proved that he was the “man in the arena,” but was fired upon by libertarian types whom they called, in those days, anarchists. TR had to curtail his campaigning. Some say, had the anarchists not shot at TR, he may have become the first 3rd-party candidate to win the presidency.

He did prove that his progressive ideas about capitalist supply and demand in a political arena of democracy were worth the effort because nothing ventured is nothing gained. TR exemplifies that man in the arena “whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood…” What TR accomplished made an indelible mark on America and the success of America for many years after the era of TR, the “trust buster.”

My words against Gannett, big business fat pigs, private insurance for health and other needs, and a really foul healthcare system designed for the wealthy and to suck taxpayer money from a costly court system based on greedy lawyers and the stench of their personal injury and workman’s comp frivolity.

My teachable moments in my writings reflect the ideas of the “trust buster,” TR. However, no one today wants to take such thoughts supporting ethics as being serious and support those of us in a collective voice. They likely have no idea of the success and greatness of the state of New York (TR once governor of NY) and nation.

I, am a man who has concern for all fellow Americans. With these thoughts in mind, I, too, am the man in this arena of contention with brutal forces in our nation who have no care or concern for one another but have only care and concern for their individualist selfish wealthy ideas based on the evil love of money.

I do plan to remain in that “arena” with tenacity and perseverance in order to make life better in America for we the people of all colors, ethnic groups, religions, sex, and sexual identities. We the people. All lives matter. We work to attain, for all, “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” I shall be persistent in challenging the vulgar lies of those who make the most money from stocks and sit at the top of the big business hoodlum groups, fat cats (term coined back about TR’s days), and fat pigs who have no concern for their fellow Americans but just love to wallow in the mud and get nothing done for the good of America and its progress towards the future.

Print copies of morning newspapers need to arrive early in the morning, not at 2 or 3PM in the afternoon. They need to arrive. If I want digital copies, I can subscribe to Newspapers.com and find articles from many different newspapers, not just one. Those copies can go back a century or more. Being visually impaired, I cannot read digital copies on computers with my morning coffee. A MD newsletter from a major medical center recently reversed course and said we DO need to consumer caffeine. We are not going to sit at a computer, drink the coffee, and try to read the news.

In 2008, at the height of the Bush Recession, newspaper tycoon fat pigs decided to utilize this to the advantage of technology. They pared back the newspapers and many columns of interest to readers, kept the sports section, and had no surprise as readers left in droves. In this way, this idiocracy could make claim that “no one wants to read print copies of newspapers.” I’d say it was a deliberate sabotage by a younger group of jackasses taking control and putting love of money first. People I knew were laid off and I don’t believe it was due to a natural loss of money, but a effort to sabotage what was working quite well, making people believe that “it’s broken,” when it was not.

For me, I had lost my job with thousands of others, with a claim that “more money can be made” and manipulating the brains of people to make them think that the corporation was suffering, when, indeed, the corporation was considered a “cash cow” and was not losing money. I think these fat pigs use accountants and lawyers to cook the books and manipulate figures to the advantage of the fat cats and fat pigs. Meanwhile, the hard-working people lose their jobs and the stock in the process. And the fat pigs go running off with millions in the process, making everyone think it is for the better for all of us. NOT.

Thus, don’t have any care and concern for those who ended up losing out and work with a collective voice to make certain these things don’t happen again, including the lousy pigs with their lousy ideas about newspapers. Stop doing this incredible sabotage to newspaper delivery and give us our newspaper early in the morning. No excuses, you bastards. Just do it. As I speak as a man in the arena of contention “whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood…” while there are those who have lost their lives due to some of this crap, including loss of life and limb due to the fat pig leaders of a dismal American healthcare system designed for the wealthy. Tell me we are speaking about socialism and let me puke in your face because you are a liar with no proof, while I have proof that I am speaking like TR, the “trust buster” who recognized the economics of supply AND demand, even when it comes to large demands in healthcare or smaller demands in newspapers. For newspapers, these fat pigs make it sound like there is no demand and that is a lie. This describes my pet peeves while in the “arena.” Ignore them and you are a fool.

I had an ancestor who fought in the American Revolution for whom I was accepted into the Sons of the American Revolution. He was wealthy and used his wealth to contribute to the new American government we call Uncle Sam, in the means of financial support for the war effort and INFRASTRUCTURE work. He was not alone as there were others who did the same. In other words, in the late 1800s, there were those who fought for freedom from a monarchy with a mentally ill king, who thought as JFK did when he was inaugurated as president: “ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.” He did NOT think as idiot charismatic jackass Ronald Reagan said in his inauguration: “the problem is the government.” Reagan’s idiotic words apparently inspire more idiotic stupid people and those fat cats of wealth than do the words of JFK. The government, like any human institution, is not perfect, but it is better than big business fat cats and their dictatorship run with the help of monopoly and supply side trickle-down economics.

Infrastructure and healthcare for all is an example of achieving “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” There is proof that the theorist of capitalism, Adam Smith, wrote in books like Wealth of Nations and Theory of Moral Sentiment in support of ideas based on JFK’s statement, not that of Ronald Reagan. Why are Americans being so stupid – like Fred Akshar – and insisting on lying to the public and then run for office as a law enforcement officer? Here is a theorist of capitalism saying things which support infrastructure (including the building of a big infrastructure project in New York for which Akshar idiots and others have benefited over the ages and was scoffed at as being “Clinton’s Ditch,” or the Erie Canal; development of commerce due to infrastructure).

America is falling behind the communist Chinese, due to the lack of infrastructure work in the USA which also includes building business based on R&D. I must say, then, that if you support Akshar and the idiotic Trumpicans, you support the communist Chinese. But wait. Aren’t the communist Chinese socialist authoritarianism and denial of capitalism? So… supporters of Akshar and Trump and Trumpicans are supporters of socialist autocracy, not the ability to work within a capitalist democracy and achieve goals for “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” To get their way, they lie through their teeth. What an insult to upstate New York because they utilize the lack of education about what capitalist democracy is truly about in order to enforce Putin and Chinese communist autocracy.

Wake up NY Upstate Southern Tier to what is truly happening here. The real problem is not government, but liar, liar pants on fire ruthless business dictators of supply-side trickle-down economics by way of monopoly. That, my friends and fellow Americans who are sick and tired of efforts of lawyer-politicians to pit American against American, is the problem. The REAL problem, too, is systemic racism by dictators of white supremacy.

Those who set things up to not allow the consumer to speak and discuss matters of business are cowards. They operate out of fear, like dictator Trump, of being criticized. They don’t know how to work with constructive criticism so the consumer can be happy by solving a problem hurting the consumer. Cowards. Fear. American business follows these lines too damn much today. Case in point. How can I call and speak with someone at WordPress to resolve a problem with the blocking of sending my posts to my own email? I cannot find a person to talk with and so far no one at WordPress has replied to my words, whether on my posts or in email to the help desk at WordPress. Lousy American business for which we in a capitalist supply and demand market deserve better.

​​​A statement from Fred Akshar was published in the newspaper regarding the “collective voice” influence on young children wearing masks was interesting. It was well taken about “the collective voice being able to accomplish more than a single voice.” How true and the change in requirements about the young kids wearing the masks was a good example.
I have a question, though. All this time I have been trying to inspire a collective voice for some very pertinent issues and I keep feeling I am all alone in lighting the fire for a collective voice. Fred Akshar has money and I don’t? WIth that being said, who is it I need to pay off?

Fred Akshar and his bias against healthcare for everyone is able to have the voice that goes against the collective voices who have suffered from their pocketbooks or have lost their lives due to the inability to pay for medications, healthcare, and health insurance. My individual voice wrote about the comparison many of us face with paying huge amounts in private health insurance, compared to the costs to fund Medicare for all, and my voice never got heard. Akshar asked the question in a survey he conducted from HIS website which could generate the results HE wanted to have, with 75% against healthcare and single-payer healthcare for all. Of course, the question begs the answer which put 75% against it and was a non-scientific poll which has no merit. 

Is that the collective voice or is there a collective voice out there which has its pocketbooks drained, due to lawyer politicians (is Akshar a lawyer?) who see nothing wrong with the waste of taxpayer money and the clogging of the court system by personal injury lawsuits and resolving workman’s compensation injuries. Someone add up all the figures of taxpayer expense and listen to lawyers bloviate about “how expensive it is to provide single-care healthcare. Taxpayers are never told about how much it costs to decimate government budgets by clogging the court systems of America with personal injury lawsuits and workman’s comp lawsuits, sometimes frivolous and fake jobs, too. Americans are never informed of this and thus, our system is sabotaged and we are not able to progress as a society. People with REAL health problems are FORCED by lawyer-politicians to bow down to big pharma and big insurance with mountains of money charged to we the people who need it, but are not as wealthy.

I ask the question. Why is it only females like Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren who boldly speak out in favor of healthcare for all? Because then they become targets of males and Trumpicans, so no one else wants to use the freedom they have to speak out about REAL topics which hurt and murder REAL people of America? I am not sure I have heard one male say one thing in favor of healthcare for all. Not one. Yet, I know various people, both male and female, who have lost life, limb, and body due to the lack of healthcare for all. And if someone gets hurt in an automobile crash, there is someone there. For the person who needs the meds or attention to solve a problem of diabetes and/or heart conditions, well forget it.  Go away because we don’t want you.And then Akshar LIES on a survey and then, to look good, puts out a freaking statement about the “collective voice” regarding the “mask for toddlers” issue. No collective voice for anything else because jackasses like Akshar block the collective voice through ludicrous surveys with questions based on a bias.  Akshar is a liar and we don’t need such a lying jackass in the New York State Senate. 

Wealthy autocrats and plutocrats at the top of much of the American business operations tell us what makes us happy and if we don’t like it, then we can go pound salt, suck eggs or f**k ourselves. I remain persistent about challenging this. I could cry over spilled milk because I made a choice in 1977 NOT to take a teaching job in Canada and to remain in the nation where I was born and raised. Nobody cares that I made such a decision then and now want America to stop being controlled by plutocrats, autocrats, with a movement to top-down supply-side trickle-down economics and commerce. It’s a centrally-planned business dictatorship which controls our government and removes control from the grass roots of “we the people.” Trump and the Trumpicans make a claim to represent “we the people” and they all lie. They have no interest in “we the people” when discussing “private healthcare.” Private healthcare is designed for those of wealth who have the money, not “we the people.”

Private healthcare can make tons of money from big insurance, privatized Medicare, big pharma (write the prescription Mr. Doctor but don’t look into the details). Repeat. People who don’t have the money to ante up then lose their lives, their limbs, and live life in a hell of suffering on an earth which should be designed for ALL human beings, not just the wealthy. The stupidity of those who vote for Trump and the Trumpicans is so ludicrous, I wish I could vomit on them, including Akhar.  There is not an overall approach to medicine and healthcare, so when I was on insulin and tried a means of fighting diabetes by drinking vinegar, I did just that. I vomited. Here is the “vomit” for the fat pigs of autocrats with a dim view of lives from the top. And Trump and the Trumpicans get support when talking about “private healthcare.” Those who show him such support among the Middle Class and lower are doing nothing but shooting themselves in the foot, unless they figure they will gain by those at the top confiscating property and resources from good people in America.  BUT WAIT! Does that not describe how the Bolsheviks took over in Russia, or Castro in Cuba, or Mao Tse-Tung in China? Confiscate the resources from good people who may have made money the old fashioned way, they earned it, not to take the freaking liberal handouts put in place because freaking Trumpicans sabotage and block good solutions which could benefit more than just the lousy people filing for blame in personal injury lawsuits so as to TAKE money from others and not EARN money – because we don’t have the money due to the tax dollars stolen to put these crumbs of humans before the courts rather than use such funds for the good of “we the people.” Fred Akshar is a pukey individual who promotes such actions and the stupidity of idiotic lemmings follow along and go off the cliff, taking good people with them. 

Akshar and his idiotic survey with a question about healthcare based on the evident bias of the man, can go to h-e-double-hockey-sticks.
