Seeing the Light
Why do I believe what I do? How did I get so strange? Why can people not see what I see? I used to be like you. I used to believe in the empire. I bought into all that bullshit that John McCain peddled about America being the light of the world, America needing to…

War Junkies
Have you ever wondered what keeps our economy going? By economy I mean our war economy. Here in the United States, we live within a full-time war economy, and we have lived within that war economy ever since I’ve been a little boy. The United States is always at war. In fact, the United States…

Uncomfortable Truths
The uncomfortable truth is that the devastation within the inner city is not just the fault of the Democratic party, but the Republican party as well.

The Trump Balance Sheet
Since we are in primary season, it seems appropriate to look at the Trump balance sheet. What has he accomplished so far? Well, not much in my opinion, but let’s get at it. He sold Otto Warmbier down the river. After North Korea tortured Otto to death, Trump had a few a show meetings with…

Bethlehem Steel

Let Them Eat Cake
Take notice of what passes for utopia in France, young socialists. Paris is burning as the Yellow Vests hold France and its leader, Macron, accountable for the imposition of a fuel tax. As Paris burns, Macron, feasts on pheasant at Versailles. Yet why should this be? Why should the French people be so angry? It…

GM and Gall
GM is eliminating 14,000 jobs in Ohio, Detroit and elsewhere in the United States. What should Trump do? Words won’t cut it. Nor will worrying about the legal ramifications if action is taken. If? We don’t need if. Leaders lead. If Trump had guts, he would immediately suspend all sales of GM cars, trucks and…
