“The best way to teach your kids about taxes is by eating 30% of their ice cream.”– Bill Murray When I saw that slimy tentacle of the Goldman Sachs vampire squid, Gary Cohn, bloviating about Trump’s tax plan and how it was going to do wonders for the middle class, I knew I was probably going to get screwed again. And after perusing the outline of their plan, it is certain I will be getting it up the ass once again from my beloved government. I know everyone’s tax situation is different, but I’m just a hard working middle aged … Continue reading →

While this side of the pond is marveling at the differences on the new Gen 5 Glock series, over in Germany something really different has surfaced. The German firearms industry trade journal DWJ last week announced the new Glock 46 which company CEO Stephan Dörler described as a supplement for German police forces who already use the Glock 17 and is undergoing tests at the Polizeitechnische Institut in Munster. Following up with the highlights in English with lots of photos, Recoil detailed the new gun has most of the same Gen 5 features (no finger grooves, ambi slide stop, beveled frame nose) but that … Continue reading →

I remember the moment I got the HPV vaccine. I was a young, impressionable teenager, and my mother was concerned about me being sexually active and the potential risks of HPV and cervical cancer. Like any concerned mother, she turned to a doctor, who of course recommended the HPV vaccine, Gardasil. Now, this was years ago, so there wasn’t as much information available to the public regarding this vaccine’s potential risks. I’m telling you this because, had I known the potential risks, I definitely would not have agreed to have the vaccine. I’m sure I’m not the only person to say … Continue reading →

Robin Hood may have been a fictional character, but the thing that drove him and his “Merry Men” to become outlaws was real enough: Oppressive laws. Specifically, oppressive taxes. At every turn, the Sheriff of Nottingham and his not-so-merry men would demand their pound of flesh. The only way Robin and his men could survive was to forget the law – and live outside the law. It was an act of desperation and necessity. This is happening again – to millions of American drivers. None of them merry. It starts with a ticket for a traffic offense – a pratfall that is becoming … Continue reading →

“These are, after all, the same entities who insisted the North Koreans would not be able to launch a viable rocket for 3-5 years, … that insisted Saddam Hussein was in possession of WMD, … that there was no torture at Abu Ghraib prison, … and that the government had no bulk data collection program, until Edward Snowden revealed otherwise.” This has been a long time in coming. Few people are as well positioned as Roger Stone to maul the political witch-hunters running the House hearings and their ridiculous Russia-gate charade they continue to flog, (unsuccessfully) to the American people. He … Continue reading →

Morgan Freeman is used to playing God, and in lesser roles, president of the United States. These days, however, Freeman has sold his image and aura to the worst warmongers on the planet. Morgan Freeman has signed on as a front man and propagandist for an all-out military confrontation with Russia, the only country that has the power to turn the United States into a burned out cinder. In a video that Freeman’s right-wing friends are circulating on social media, the actor declares that a new world war has already begun. “Russia is waging war on the U.S. ,” says the … Continue reading →

The “Field of Dreams” slogan for America’s NGOs should be: “If you pay for it, we will come.” And right now, tens of millions of dollars are flowing to non-governmental organizations if they will buttress the thesis of Russian “meddling” in the U.S. democratic process no matter how sloppy the “research” or how absurd the “findings.” And, if you think the pillars of the U.S. mainstream media – The Washington Post, The New York Times, CNN and others – will apply some quality controls, you haven’t been paying attention for the past year or so. The MSM is just as … Continue reading →

JOHANNESBURG – Step away from the crowd, look, see what no-one else is noticing – and that is where you can find what everyone is searching for. This is Jim Rogers’ key to success. He should know, he is a US dollar billionaire, one of the world’s foremost financial analysts and commentators and an author. Rogers is increasingly bullish about investing across Africa and emerging markets. Rogers, 74, has investments in many countries. One of his most recent is into a Hong Kong-listed coal mine in Indonesia. He was scoffed at, while the rest of the world is moving away … Continue reading →
