Relevant and even prescient commentary on news, politics and the economy.

Leadership and Justice that Looks the Other Way and Ignores Racism

As I explained multiple times. Turn out was less in 2024 that in 2020. 3 million people did not vote, The same numeric of ~ three million who voted for others did similar in 2024 and it had a larger impact. Turn out was less in 2024 by percentage of eligible voters 59.7% as compared […]

Hegseth and Kennedy at the Helm While Trump Lies

This continues to be a nightmare day after day. None of the three forementioned know what they are doing in the positions they have been voted into or appointed. For sure Trump knows nothing about how to be a president and represent the nation. Then there is Pete and Robert. Would Ship of Fools be […]

Do You Need a SS Number to get ACA Healthcare Insurance?

Tweedle-di and Tweedle-Dum (Oz and Kennedy) believe you do and of course they will say illegals were applying for ACA healthcare insurance in the past. (All lies and jest, but a man is what he wants to be and disregards the rest.) Oops. slipped back to the past in my Wayback Machine mind. Trump believes […]

Population Growth and Change

The changing population i terms of older versus younger people or labor will or could have a significant impact on the United States. If you remember, Angry Bear had posted on the issue several times. One of those commentaries was “300 Million and Counting” by Joel Garreau (written in 2006). Replacement rate then was at […]

Checking up on Trump’s chosen people

“So far, 206 Afrikaners have resettled in Ohio, a state that has struggled with population decline for decades. The Trump administration recently announced it plans to increase by 10,000 the number of refugee resettlement places for South Africans this year. “But since arriving in the US, Afrikaners – largely the Afrikaans-speaking descendants of Dutch settlers […]

Court Blocks Trump Birthright Citizen Order

It probably would not matter if a DEm President made the same decision to do so on his own rather than go through Congress. Trump wishes to be a king and make edicts on his own outside of Congress, Even so and if such was done? There would be a good chance the courts would […]

“seven times the previous annual budget and four times the typical annual budget”

All of this to keep immigrants out of the United States even though replacement rate is down and decreasing. A term I am learning from the VA as they argue with me about how I was poisoned while at Camp Lejeune is “More Likely than Not.” Moe likely than not replacement rate in the US […]

Case Dismissed

It appears it finally happened. Trump looking for revenge driven justice agenda backfired on him. Mybe the right word to use here is vindictive. Trump is well known for seeking some type of revenge. He plays his desire so openly, it is difficult to be ignored. “U.S. District Judge Waverly D. Crenshaw considered the defendant’s […]

Trump again Crosses the Legal Line of Authority

I have not said or suggested what type of person this type of action would come from today. His actions with foreign people and people of color sys much about what his beliefs are today. Again, Pres. Trump crosses the legal lines of authority by issuing an edict (memorandum) telling in country foreign citizens they […]

Harsher Politically Inspired Immigration Policies Will Affect Labor Needs, Taxes, and Economy

The United States will eventually face a lack of labor due to the present citizen’s reproduction rate, In 2006, reproduction was at 2,01. In 2026, reproduction is at ~1.6. In which case the amount of Labor in the United States may become strategic to its economic growth. “The U.S.-Born labor force will shrink over the […]
