Leftism Promotes Psychological Abuse

Leftism Promotes Psychological Abuse: Leftism is a mental illness whose sufferers include an inordinate number of narcissists and psychopaths.  Anybody who has endured a leftist mob knows this to be true.

A Cascade of Failures in California

A Cascade of Failures in California: Much has already been written about the L.A. wildfires and doubtless much more will be written in the future. The single most important point in the whole situation is that these fires were, if not completely preventable, at least foreseen.  A firefighter warned Joe Rogan about it at least six months ago.  What happened in Los Angeles was the result of a cascading series of events including adverse weather, bone-headed administrative decisions, and a degree of negligence that should be investigated for cause.

Liberalism is incompatible with Christianity

Liberalism is incompatible with Christianity: Government is an unfortunate necessity. We need it to do that which we cannot do for ourselves. Its functions are listed in the preamble to the Constitution -- to preserve the union of states, to protect the innocent and prosecute the guilty, to enable its citizens to live in peace and to protect them from foreign or domestic threats, to provide them with the opportunity to prosper and to protect the tenets of liberty for its citizens and their descendants.

'The View' Jumps the Shark as Sunny Hostin Insults Millions with Absurd Jan. 6 Rant On Monday, ABC’s “The View” co-host Sunny Hostin tried to elevate the importance of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol incursion to the extreme by claiming it was on par with World War II, the Holocaust, and slavery.

Are leftists mentally ill?

Are leftists mentally ill?: Do people on the radical left demonstrate a mental disorder? Most people on the right roll their eyes at the hysteria and fears of the left, but what’s to be done?

Given that there were major shifts on the left in the 2024 election, is it possible that somehow sanity is breaking through? With the ongoing polarization that has burdened this country, it’s worthwhile to examine the psychological framework of leftists; both how they see themselves and how they see others. The results may also indicate whether the changes in voting behavior might continue, or whether they were situational.

A phrase that’s been coined is “Left-Wing Authoritarianism” (LWA) or Left-Wing Extremism. 

Leftists now making ridiculous claims that Trump's policies 'will ruin you'

Leftists now making ridiculous claims that Trump's policies 'will ruin you': Vladimir Lenin in his many letters to other communists, used to rant and rave about other revolutionaries, calling them "idiots," who "are going to ruin everything."

Today's leftists are now weirdly echoing that early Soviet boss in their admonitions to voters.

How Trump Derangement Syndrome Saved America

How Trump Derangement Syndrome Saved America: While the Democrats and their allies in the legacy media and the Ruling Class wallow in 2024 election post-mortems, they are overlooking the foundational factor in Donald Trump’s triumphant return to the White House -- their immersion in Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS).

It was TDS that caused this cabal to foolishly throw caution to the wind and overtly and massively engage in voter fraud in 2020 in order to elect a senescent mannequin in Joe Biden, thereby permanently alienating nearly half the electorate. They then stupidly acquiesced to disastrous left-wing ideology in governing the nation. And in 2023-24 they mindlessly attempted to imprison Trump for the rest of his life, thus increasing his popularity among the bulk of the citizenry. Thus, it was Trump Derangement Syndrome that led to Trump’s landslide victory in the 2024 election and the saving of America from being transformed into a one-party socialist oligarchy.

Why leftists lie

Why leftists lie: Without the ability or desire to see truth no amount of failure can put a dent into utopian dreams. Leftists lie because it helps them get what they want and makes them feel good. In the artificial world their childish imagination has created, this is as real and true as unicorns, free beer, forgiven student debt, endless government borrowing, and unrestrained sensual indulgences. Those who would threaten this world are enemies that need to be destroyed.

Where can the leftists go?

Where can the leftists go?: Our economy needs skilled workers, but many of the progressives who constitute the disaffected Harris contingent likely burrow into unproductive government jobs, or become social workers aiding and abetting illegal aliens. They won’t be missed all that much; heck, our economic productivity may even increase in their absence. After all, we now have a builder president, and many of his supporters are equally constructive on America.

As for their preferred destinations, Canada and the United Kingdom make some sense -- from a leftist viewpoint, that is. Both countries rank reasonably highly on various ranking metrics. For what it’s worth, both score reasonably well in the United Nations Human Development Index, which purports to measure achievements in health, education and standard of living.

No Matter How Often Leftism Fails, True Believers Never Face The Consequences

No Matter How Often Leftism Fails, True Believers Never Face The Consequences: Perhaps the most significant factor contributing to the Soviet Union’s collapse was a resolute commitment to the infallibility of socialist ideology, coupled with its continued application long after its obvious failure. The failure to learn history and, by extension, internalize the lessons from this dark period is what enables our modern-day Marxists (whom we refer to as “leftists” or “progressives”) to believe that they can somehow avoid the consequences of the policies they promote.

The Most Dangerous Virus Out There ...

Liberal Logic in Pennsylvania?

That Tom Wolf is a genius. After the Democratic governor shut down the state's liquor stores, depriving Pennsylvania of much-needed revenue, thousands of Pennsylvania residents are traveling to neighboring states to buy liquor and help those states out financially. So under Wolf's draconian closure orders, thousands of workers are sitting home and hundreds of thousands of state taxes on liquor go uncollected. Meanwhile, Pennsylvania's neighboring states are enjoying huge increases in sales. Way to go, Tom. (And don't get me started on why Wolf thinks beer distributors are an essential business that can remain open, but not liquor stores.)

The Real Cost of 'Free'

When I think about something, anything, being free, I think of the air we breathe and water in a stream. Not much else comes to mind. Certainly not health care nor education.

Yet, our airwaves are filled with programs that promise free health care and education. The problem is, both health care and education have delivery systems, and so each cost money.

Health care requires things like hospitals, emergency rooms, doctors, doctor offices, nurses, physician assistants, medicines, X-rays, MRIs, etc. The problem is, each of these services and human medical professionals come at a cost. So how can health care ever be free?

Education requires things like schools and colleges and universities, buildings, administrations, and importantly, teachers and teaching tools — you know: books, pencils, tablets, computers, etc. The problem is, each of these services and human teaching professionals come at a cost. So how can education ever be free?

Hidden in the argument today for free health care is the true cost to each and every taxpayer in America. The proposed Medicare for All scheme is estimated to cost between $28 to $32 Trillion (12 zeroes) in the first decade. Compare that cost to the total annual US GDP of about $20 Trillion and you get a sense of the costs to all of us to make healthcare “free.”

If you listen carefully, you can hear the footfall of Uncle Sam coming with a huge new tax bill for all of us — and not just for one year, but for every year in the future. Hidden also is the impact that nationalized health care can, and likely will, have on the quality and availability of health care. Sure, we can achieve anything we have the will to do, including nationalized health care and maintaining the quality and availability of health care, but we must recognize there are huge new costs ($Trillions) to achieve these ideas. To be sure, health care is not now, and never can be free. Every taxpayer will pay many more taxes to achieve this dream.

Hidden in the argument for free education is the true cost; and as every property taxpayer knows, the cost for the delivery system of education increases every year. Today some would argue we have a free K-12 school system, but really, property taxes pay for our K-12 schools. Some folks believe because they don’t get a bill called “K-12 Education” that it’s free. It isn’t!

Look at property taxes as an example. So when you think about free college, realize we will need a national program to pay for free college that will look much like a new, and very expensive property tax scheme, but national in scope. Be sure, existing or new taxes will be increased annually to pay for “free” college.

It is time we understand when someone promises us something for free, we should not be fooled. When something is free, then we all pay for it. I personally believe those who today are promising you something for free will never deliver on that promise, due to the costs they today refuse to recognize and communicate to you.
