Frank Herbert’s ‘Dune’: The kind of political philosophy that will take mankind into a space economy

I spend a lot of time thinking about the challenges of becoming an interplanetary civilization.  When people ask me why I do what I do, I tell them it’s not for money, it’s not for popularity, and it’s certainly not for a platform for politics.  I am interested in philosophy as Socrates exhibited it, specifically, the thinking it will take to move humanity off the Earth and become a multi-planetary species.  This past week, two things happened that reminded me of this task. The first was the Starship launch, which was very successful with SpaceX.  The second Dune movie did very well at the box office, showing continued interest, which I think is terrific because it gives people access to the old Frank Herbert books, which I think are masterpieces on a biblical scale, as opposed to just science fiction.  I have been thinking a lot about Frank and his books lately, the six he wrote, then the final two in the original series that his son continued to conclusion. 

If we want to be an interplanetary civilization, we must first solve some fundamental problems. One of those is the problem of power and why people crave it. One great example of exploring that problem is the novels by Frank Herbert in, Dune, the eight-book analysis introduced to the world through the latest movies, which are very good. But just the start of quite a journey.  More people would better understand our current circumstances if they read Frank Herbert’s books because he deals with a lot of serious stuff in that fantastic series.  Yes, as in the movies, they are dealing with the human race as they have colonized space, all over the universe space, not just a regional galaxy, 10,000 years in the future.  The politics are very similar to the concerns of the Old Testament, with bloodlines and kingdoms at the heart of the story.  Frank is very concerned with the nature of politics, so these Dune books are more about sociology and politics than they are about science or fiction. In the movies, the one from 1984 and now these recent ones, the lead character rises to greatness to become the new emperor, and that’s the end of the story.  That fits a typical narrative for a Hollywood movie.  But Dune is much more than these things, so these stories have been hard to make into movies.  The point in building up the lead story and characters is that the rest of the book rips them apart in a kind of libertarian study of the human race and how power corrupts, or does it?  One thing that Frank does that I am very interested in, that very few anybodies has ever touched, is how the spirit world influences the politics of humanity.  It’s an offering of the kind of Divine Council discussed in Psalms 82 and certainly reflects what Paul talked about in Ephesians.  Who rules us from beyond the grave, and how far down the rabbit hole does it go?  In those Dune books, Herbert even calls his work a prediction, not fiction, as he sets out to study ecology.  I think of our political life as just the surface reflections of much deeper forces at work, not all of them human as we think of the word.  And not just spiritual as we think of Casper the ghost or the Holy Spirit.  We must look at the spirit world as it strives to exist outside our known universe and expect that they are using self-interest to manipulate our lives to their advantage.  Frank Herbert deals with that level of political management, and it’s fantastic and can’t really be captured in the movies. 

As crazy as our political system is, I consider it a healthy necessity.  What America is going through is needed for global management of political systems that can then carry over into off-world colonies, which are coming at us much faster than people realize.  And we must solve some of these problems before we come to that impasse.  We must have a political system based on a healthy understanding of capitalism before we start moon colonies and cities on Mars.  Too much micromanagement of adventures into space will stop progress, and as Herbert assumes in his books, humanity reverts to the biblical necessity of royal bloodlines through the Vico Cycle.  I disagree with a lot about Herbert, especially regarding drug use.  But like the work of Graham Hancock that I have talked about in using ayahuasca to communicate with the spirit world, the spice in Dune is essentially the same kind of thing, and I think Herbert is on to something essential as far back as 1965.  Many of the Baal worshipers of Canaan also used psychedelics in their rituals, and in that context, it is likely the cause of the frequent turning away from God that is a majority of the narrative in the Bible.  Frank Herbert in Dune explores why this is the case and when drugs are used to speak to other spirit beings, who they are, and what they are motivated by.  And by coming to terms with that, you can then understand the kind of evil that is loose in the world now, and understand it with some perspective. 

Herbert goes so far as to place political motivations for spiritual influence in his many Dune books and migrates beyond universal influence, which is pretty impressive as a work of fiction.  I would put it on the level of Atlas Shrugged and other Ayn Rand works.  I don’t agree with everything she does either, but the thought process is beneficial.  Somewhere in these intellectual works are the answers we need to become an interplanetary species, so I don’t get too excited about transitory elections.  What we are all fighting against each other to achieve is the war of ideas that survive into the future, and I tend to think of these efforts in the most extensive picture possible. The trajectory of change will far exceed standard election cycles.  It’s why people win that matters, why certain people are attracted to power, and how power corrupts or is helpful to society.  And how a tyrant today might be a benefactor tomorrow.  Morality is often not so much determined by what we see but by what we are growing to understand and how that understanding is influential across over 22 dimensions.  And as we continue to build nations and colonies in space, what kind of political system should they have to accommodate with all considerations available, as we can know them, through science or fiction.  The Dune books have some magnificent things to say along those lines, and I think it is wonderful that the movies are doing well and that people are learning about the books for the first time.   One thing that space travel needs is a healthy appreciation of government systems that embrace capitalism.  Future religions must be joined at the hip; otherwise, their value will fall apart.  So, it’s not enough to build a Starship and start moving people into a new space economy.  We must work on the deep philosophical problems that have permeated the human race since the beginning.  And we have to solve them with something fresh, and America is the leader of that movement.  In the long run, it will make much more sense for people.

Joe Biden is a Communist: The American government is the new criminal syndicate on a global scale

What did I think of Biden’s speech?  Well, I have been traveling, so I haven’t had much time to talk about it with people, and I have received hundreds and hundreds of email requests asking me about it, which I have not gotten around to answering, even but a handful.  And before I replied, I thought about it to take the edge out of my opinion.  It would have been easy to pick on that ridiculous State of the Union speech by Biden, who was an inserted president, not one selected by the people in an honest election.  The 2020 election that put Biden in power is by the exact control mechanisms that keep dictators in power in Cuba, China, Russia, Venezuela, and other communist countries around the world.  Elections in those countries are not free and by the people.  They give the illusion of free choice, but there is too much power and money for people to vote away that power with an election.  Who is dumb enough to believe that not to be the case, and that is why there are so many stupid election laws in America disguised as “voter equality” when, in fact, it’s voter suppression on a mass scale?  The mail-in ballots are something that Russia and China would come up with to stay in power, and Democrats in America think that same method is going to work here, too.  That’s why they were so cocky with Biden, because they believe, even with such a dumb fool, that they control the process so audaciously that it’s laughable that Trump would ever be in office again.   What was that the FBI said during pillow talk?  “We won’t allow it.”  Yeah, don’t be a sucker, what Biden has been and still is was purely the Deep State showing it has the power over American elections, and they are daring people to challenge them, and they have the power of government behind them, which has made them even more arrogant.  The J6 prisoners are all about reminders to the population to submit to their authority and to say uncle, hoping to get some semblance of normalcy back to their lives, in gas prices, bread, and a job that can barely pay the bills. 

No, what Biden’s speech delivered was exactly what Democrats and some Republicans have been accused of since the McCarthy hearings: it was communists on parade, and what’s different now than in times past is that Biden is not a particularly good spokesman for it.  Bill Clinton could sell a used car as new well, as could the domestic terrorist Barack Obama, the foreign kid from Indonesia who lied about everything but hid the scam behind racism.  Joe Biden is just a corrupt old fool who was stuck into power as a placeholder until they could figure out how to kill off the MAGA movement with their massive control over society, from the courts to the media to elected offices.  They have been using the China model.  And I say they because it is “they” the globalists who support global communism through corporate boards and banks as their delivery method.  However, further support goes to their European secret societies and trade unions.  Communism is as alive today as it was before the fall of the Berlin Wall.  But to take the edge off the public, they just allowed for a breakdown of the wall so they could get rid of people like Ronald Reagan from office and get one of their assets into positions of power, like George Bush, the senior, the ex-CIA director.  I told you guys when I had a chance to talk directly to the CIA Director, Mike Pompeo; I asked him way before anybody about the significance of the intel community who lied about Trump and Russia, the famous 51 now.  He was embarrassed, of course, but he knew.  He tried to do something about those problems but couldn’t put his desire for presidential office down long enough to do any real good.  Or they would have just gotten rid of him, too.  I’m not talking about these things in the vacuum of ideology, but most of the time with a wide perspective and input from the actual people.

When Biden says he’s a capitalist, he’s playing the identical plan Castro used to take power in Cuba in the ’60s and ’70s.  Biden is too compromised to be his own man, so they put him in power.  So they could control him.  And they have told him, “they” being the same globalist malcontents, that if he wants to stay out of jail, then he has to keep the office of president.  That’s why many of these criminal types wish for power, so they can control the law and stay out of jail.  I also told everyone about how the mobs moved out of localized control and into government for the same reasons.  Mobsters stopped having shootouts with the cops years ago.  Now, they raised their kids to grow up to be attornies, to keep their crooked operations into power without fighting the courts.  Instead, they became the courts, and they have expected to get away with it.  Biden is a communist, and we know it because we’ve seen this communist scam in most countries around the world.  I had the opportunity to see all this clearly by being in Japan for the last week, the third most powerful economy in the world, but they do it with far fewer people.  And it becomes apparent the communists have been in control through the Democrat Party for a long time.  And with MAGA we are looking to put them out of power without it turning to bloodshed.  And the Biden speech of 2024 announced the apparent necessity of that ambition.

The system isn’t so far gone that we have to scrap everything.  But we must put the people back in charge of their own government.  Right now, the globalists are in charge of their radical communist European interests.  While in Japan, I had an interesting conversation about zoning, because we were comparing American zoning to Japanese zoning, and I had to report not happily that the United Nations has been in charge of American zoning for more than three decades now, and most city planners are trained Marxist right out of our colleges who have been converted to the same.  We call them liberals, Democrats, Progressives, Rinos, everything but what they are, and that is communists.  But we need to start naming the beast for what it is.  I had the benefit of clarity gained through travel.  But in America, that’s what we all must face.  Biden is a communist and so are the Democrats trying to keep him in power.  And we are at a place where we have to do something about it now, or we will have more significant problems later.  Because they aren’t hiding it anymore, they can’t afford to.  But they believe they have so much control over the process that they can’t lose power.  That is what was behind Joe Biden’s speech: a tired old man who didn’t even have the gas in the tank to sell communism any longer.  He was running for president to keep his family out of jail because, in his warped way, even though he likes to take showers with his daughter and he has a crackhead son, he loves his family and doesn’t want them to suffer for the sins he committed while climbing for power.  And they will do anything they have to do to stay in power.  Including adopting the Marxist playbook.  Biden can’t afford to be a moderate, as he has sold himself in the past.  Because if he doesn’t support the communist playbook, he’ll have far worse trouble.  So, all he could do was throw people off the scent by declaring himself a capitalist.  Nothing in his speech indicated that he even remotely understood what that was.

Rural People Were Never Going To Submit to Big Parental Government: The panic by global progressives in what they are watching happen

As I wrote this one I was traveling all over the world, I was in an airport in Tokyo waiting for a connecting flight, and the nature of politics was obvious.  If you only get your news from American news sources and, from there, captured assets like CNN and The New York Times, you probably won’t understand.  But this game that progressives have built for themselves, specifically that some magical mechanism would come along, such as the internet and centralized surveillance, and that they would be able to steer people toward their political sentiments.  They counted on all that working, perhaps, too much.  And if they had a more “global” perspective at the time, they would have saved themselves a lot of pain.  No matter where they come from, most people want the same things, which was just as accurate in Tokyo as in the dusty streets of an impoverished African economy. People generally want less government in their lives so not to slow them down from the things they want to do, and they aren’t going to vote for more government to give them more access to all the intrusions that the government imposes by default.  People would never support life with too much government that made their lives more challenging moment by moment.  And that becomes excessively obvious when you travel; the further, the better.  The idea that people would support more government even in parts of the world already choking on socialism, communism, or some mashed potatoes version of the two, that they would have an infinite tolerance for political abuse, has just not been correct.  So dismantling their assumptions is almost comical, even if it is the end of the world for them.  I have tried to tell them, but they didn’t listen, and this essentially starts as a strategy that was started at the World Economic Forum and flowed through to government attempts of the United Nations.  The planners for all these central planned communities assumed that everything would magically work out if they could manage the entire world through the various large cities.  And that just has not been the case. 

Even as I talk about travel on the other side of the world and the perspective of people in general, I pointed this out after the last election, where I traveled all over the United States to ensure that my assumptions were not just regionally driven.  I live in a pretty conservative area, and even with transplants coming in from the various coastal communities, they are generally running away from big government, not embracing it, even if intellectually they don’t understand why.  But it was easy for me to confirm that no matter where you go in America, once you get out of the city limits of even the most blue-led city, people do not support big, intrusive governments anywhere.  And this realization has stoked a lot of panic among Democrats, who are learning now all too late that people could not be controlled to the level they thought.  The only way that places like China, Russia, and Europe could apply centralized governments with too much authority and got away with it was because people didn’t know better as it happened.  However, in a free country like America, where people can talk about things and assume a smaller government, their natural reaction to too much government growth will be hostile.  And we’d end up with the problems we are seeing now, where tight micro-managed communities run by blue-state governors would quickly lose their power and influence further away from the big cities where people lived. 

Most people are willing to have reasonable concessions about government intrusion if they are themselves timid types who never grew up away from their parents and still have dependency problems for which the government becomes a fantasy-oriented replacement.  So, they go to the government for transportation, price controls, and general, orderly services for their safety and security.  Looking at the situation in Japan, in one of the most populated areas on earth, Tokyo, there are a lot of people willing to accept big government as long as they can get some sense of security in their daily lives, to be able to get to work, take care of their families, and call the police if they had a crime problem.  But this Democrat idea behind the World Economic Forum, that free people would select an intrusive, micromanaging government that would steer society into electric cars, they didn’t want a paperless society that was more of a pain in the neck, making life too complicated when technology failed and being told that men and women weren’t what they were and that people could decide for themselves what sex they were, that these where things people would accept was insane.  And a clear overreach by those desiring centralized planning.  The panic they are experiencing now is that they couldn’t take away people’s desires for free will, even after trying for over a century.  Given a choice, they pick President Trump.  This has been devastating news for much of the big government world, which did not see it coming.  It was obvious to me, and I’ve been trying to tell people.  But they didn’t listen. 

This government ratio thing is not a Republican or Democrat kind of deal; it’s a human condition, and people who do not understand people turn to the government to use the power of collectivism to impose on people things they wouldn’t choose to do for themselves.  That power went to people’s heads, and they were the wrong kind of people—people broken with undeveloped minds.  Parents who had a dependent child-like mind tended to support Democrat policies, instead of someone used to doing things for themselves, as we find in areas outside American cities or all across the world where people desire to be free of intrusive governments, have jobs, and care for their families.  The games of liberalism were never created in logic but in fantasy.  Even the most robust political scientist have found their political theories rooted in the same stupidity as those who told us to wear masks for COVID and that climate change meant we all needed to give up our gas-powered cars in exchange for something that was much more expensive, didn’t go nearly as far, and gave us a lot less freedom.  As I traveled through that bustling Tokyo airport talking to people, most people only saw it on television or read about it in a magazine. The relationship to small government was not just an American thing.  And when you talk to people at the sushi bar or the grocery, when they find out you’re from America, they don’t ask about Joe Biden.  They ask about Trump.  They know Trump and would like to have their own version, no matter where they happen to be.  And you know why? Trump means more prosperity and more freedom for individuals.  It is the opposite of a big nanny government that replaces the micromanaging parent in people’s lives.  People might sympathize with that intrusive parent but don’t find themselves drawn to them.  And so it’s no surprise that people did not fall for the snake oil of big government as Democrats proposed it.  And that the power they thought they’d have over the 2024 elections was not, in reality, what they thought they’d end up with.

Follow the Constitution and Everything Will Work Out: The 9-0 Supreme Court vote against removing Trump from the ballot

As I said all along and spent several videos explaining, the Supreme Court decision on President Trump was evident from the start, and even some of the Democrat-leaning judges had to vote in support of keeping the president on the ballot, shutting down the efforts in Colorado and other states of removing him ahead of the elections in 2024.  It was a 9-0 decision that any attorney should have understood clearly.  Yet, the caution in this story is how many experts incorrectly advised that there was a danger.  This reminder is something I have said with increasing frequency: these challenges to the American Constitution in the courts are coming purely from a Marxist standpoint.  These are attempts at case law by a liberalized Bar Association connected to European efforts at establishing a post-constitutional legal foundation rooted in the United Nations, and they have nothing to do with American law.  This is an effort of the global citizen movement at a one-world government to manipulate elections and undo American sovereignty.  It has been an effort to destroy the concept of American law and certainly had no intentions of justice or fairness.  In this case, as in many, the hope was to challenge Constitutional parameters and achieve an excuse for the courts in the future that would change how everything was done, with a more global perspective in mind.  Legally, that is why I advocate on behalf of our Constitution and Bill of Rights specifically as some of the best philosophies ever produced, and it can’t be abandoned over some slack-jawed Marxist attack on our legal system.  However, that was always exactly what the attempt was to take Trump off the ballot in several states.  It should have been viewed as an insurrection and clearly showed intent to commit election fraud.  However, anybody reading the Constitution as law would know that this was a case that was never going to go in the way of the Marxists and yet another attempt by the radical political left was going to fail to stop Trump from an office he deserves, and had won in 2020 if not for the actual insurrection, the stolen election that many thousands thought they would get away with but haven’t.

The danger is what people who should know better said leading up to the Supreme Court verdict.  It is terrifying how stupid so many people could be, besides the Secretaries of State who advocated the challenge to the Constitution.  They didn’t have a solid legal review to understand a case going to the Supreme Court and had so little standing.  Yet they did it anyway and talked about it in the media as if even a traffic cop judge in Illinois was going to be able to knock Trump off the ballot to keep Old Man Loser Joe in the White House.  How many thousands of hours of commentary were done on television and radio by people who should have known better and who believed Trump could be removed from a national election in such a way?  It’s astonishing how many stupid people there are out there and what they say in public.  I never thought the case had a five-second chance in the Supreme Court, and that was precisely what happened.  As I listened to the reasoning of so many legal experts, I would shake my head, wondering where they were getting these dumb ideas on legal standing from, and as it turns out, they were woefully ignorant of the law and hoping with more than luck that their control over the law was going to advance their cause. 

I said much the same thing during COVID-19 when so many governors were openly violating the law of the Constitution with lockdowns and mandates that the government did not have the power to enact.  I told everyone then, just as I did in this voting viability case, that the government would lose in court every time someone challenged them, which is what happened.  COVID-19 died on the vine because people started to figure out about nine months into the lockdowns that the government could not do what they were doing.  After all, the COVID lockdowns came from European challenges to an American legal system assuming that globalism would override regional legal standards.  Suppose it hasn’t been evident to everyone. In that case, this is a reoccurring theme, even regarding open border policy, that the sovereign nature of law has been attacked and challenged excessively by the radical left, a European export.  And under the chaos of radicalism, the hope has been to get American judges to blink and rule in ways that would erode the concept of law by exploiting ignorance in such a devastating way.  However, the COVID cases fell apart quickly once people started getting court victories due to the unconstitutional mandates the government enforced during COVID-19.  This is why the Constitution is all about limited powers the government can have, not infinite power.  This is also why America has been so prosperous because the laws empower individuals to function without the tyrannical government disrupting their lives as much as they do in other places around the world.  So long as America has a Constitution that keeps the government in check from the radicalism they are inclined to against personal rights, much of the Marxist efforts around the world for global communist governments will fail under the weight of competition. 

As dark and evil as things have looked over the last three to four years if I’ve said it thousands of times over that duration, I’ll say it just as much going forward.  If people stick with the Constitution, things will end up making a lot more sense.  The people who lied to the public regarding this Colorado case of taking Trump off the ballot, hoping to beat him before there was ever an election because everyone knows that they cheated in 2020 to give Biden 81 million votes.  There is no real support for Biden, there never was, not in 2020 and certainly not in 2024.  Biden is a theater production of misfits and losers who thought they could challenge the American Constitution, even get rid of it by the time 2024 came around.  They never counted on a Supreme Court to vote 9-0 on anything by the time we arrived at the next election.  And that so many people were willing to lie to the public tells you everything you need to know about why preserving the Constitution is the best way to function in society, no matter where in the world someone might be.  Without the American rule of law that keeps government power in check, the corruption intended by open Marxists everywhere will ruin the world for everyone in it.  But so long as there is an America and a Constitution that governs its laws, we will all come out fine in the end.  So long as people preserve the Constitution and stand by it under assault, as we all did with this Trump case and any others that are put forward for the same dumb reasons.  These challenges in the courts are no different than the communist revolutions that have toppled many countries over the years. Still, in this case, they are coming out in courtrooms rather than domestic terrorists from the Weather Underground.  But they are terrorists just the same, and so long as people follow the Constitution, then the power of government to protect itself from justice as they have been caught committing crimes will prevent them from their menace and keep people free of their intentions.

Too Big To Rig: Do we really want stupid people and slack-jawed, dope-smoking losers voting?

It’s a good campaign slogan and accurate; Trump has started using the term “too big to rig” at his campaign events, and it perfectly describes the challenge.  In the case of 2024, as opposed to 2020, Trump has a much better chance.  I have talked a lot about this because it’s only the biggest crime of the century and involves many thousands of people.  But based on the behavior we have seen out of Democrats with the open borders, the mail-in ballots, the law fare, on every front, who in their right minds don’t believe there was massive election fraud in 2020?  And that Democrats used it to take the White House.  It’s always strange to see Biden speak in a State of the Union speech because he never feels like the actual president.  He’s a fake caricature created by a crime, and we are all supposed to pretend as if he’s the real deal.  But to question the process and cry foul admits that we have not had a real president for the last several years, and the acceleration of the destruction of America perpetuates rapidly.  So, to keep the office of the presidency alive and, instead, beat the Democrats at their own game, we’ve had to put up with it in many ways, which has not been a pleasant experience.  But obviously, election fraud is part of the Democrat playbook and they can’t win anywhere, even in blue areas, unless they conduct stolen elections.  For some reason, despite the vast evidence that this has been going on not just in 2020 but in all elections since the 1990s, likely longer, we are not supposed to talk about it.  The truth is America is not a 50/50 country.  It’s made to look that way only through election fraud, which the Democrats conduct on many fronts.

So the strategy for 2024 has to be that voter turnout must be Too Big to Rig, which forces people to admit the obvious and is the only strategy that matters.  Trump is a unique personality, so he has a chance to get a much higher voter turnout than would normally be possible, 75 to 80 million, to outpace the cheating that is built into our election system through digital voting machines, mail-in ballots, and a Biden Department of Justice that knows the only way they can stay in power is to make as legal as possible every chance to get extra voters voting for their criminal syndicate in the government, with corrupted voter roles filled with illegal aliens, early voting, and extended unconstitutional deadlines after the election to keep counting fake ballots until their guy wins, like what happened in 2020, then expect everyone to accept the selection for fear of jail and prosecution.  Over these last several years, what we have seen has been intolerable and certainly not the kind of behavior a free society would expect.  But it’s what we have been dealing with, and it will take an unusually high voter turnout to beat the election fraud that is already baked into the system.  Covid was their cover story in 2020, which they will not have in 2024, and for this year and this year only, they are very vulnerable.  For those who want serious voting reforms, this is the best chance we will get in a long time, without an actual armed revolt, to get back to paper ballots on one election day, and with voter ID.  It’s no longer a question of “if” election fraud has been happening; we know it has been.  It’s now about policing it so that a proper representation of our society is voting and picking its government. 

Just remember what Major League Baseball did with their All-Star game set to take place in Atlanta after Governor Kemp advocated for voter reforms in 2021, part of his own cover story for accepting election fraud to get Trump out of office.  They moved the game out of Georgia and sent it to Denver, a much more Democrat-controlled city, at least for now.  The voter disenfranchisement argument has been a cover story for election fraud because Democrat voters are too stupid to vote on the same day that other people vote, and they need every derelict and slack-jawed pot-smoking loser to keep themselves in power.  So, they need to have people vote as early and as often as possible to justify keeping the numbers close.  But honestly, do we want stupid people who can barely wake up in the morning running our country with representation?  The victimization of minority communities for the exploitation of voting options is the same kind of behavior that Southern Democrats used to justify slavery that caused the Civil War, for which Republicans had to stand up to and beat to have the type of society where all people could vote and have an influence on their government.  But, those qualified to vote, no matter what their skin color or sex, were at least required to show an ID and to vote on election day on a paper ballot that couldn’t be accessed through the government-controlled internet.  With the way that our intelligence agencies lie to us, who thinks in their right mind that letting them have control over the technology that can manipulate reporting results has been honorable?  Give me a break. 

It will take a personality as significant and loud as Trump’s to break this horrendous cycle.  Some average Republicans like Romney or Bush will never do it.  Average voting numbers for Republicans are what have allowed Democrats to cheat as a part of their base platform.  Only by unifying most of the country, which Trump can, can this cycle of election fraud to keep bad politicians in power, politicians that give extensive checks to labor unions, and other globalist interests.  With the amount of money off looted tax money being as high as it is, who in their right mind doesn’t think that election fraud is part of the strategy and always has been?  If you want honest elections, you’ll have to fight for them, not to assume that they would happen by default.  There are too many compromised people running the elections, and yes, they will cheat at every opportunity and have been.  That is the only reason that elections have been close.  Take away the cheating, and everyone will discover that America is much more conservative than anybody previously thought.  And in 2024, with Trump, the strategy has to be to make the election too big to rig.  We won’t be able to get legal reforms before the election; it has taken us this long to admit that it’s been going on.  But now that we know, we can make reforms, so long as we stay focused on beating election fraud in 2024, which is to have the results Too Big to Rig.  Trump needs to get at least what he had in 2020, which he is poised to do.  But for good measure, 80 million votes will make the results unquestionable.  And that amount is undoubtedly on the table after these disastrous years of Biden.  People are hungry for a change, and they can get it if they go to vote and vote in such large numbers that the Democrat rig machine won’t be able to stop it this time.

The Revenge of 2024 Will Be Delicious: We played by the rules, and now they will have no choice but to match it

We’re at that point where it’s time to benefit from many good decisions made under challenging circumstances.  And to pay ourselves back for sticking with the Constitution and not being drawn offside by truly malicious characters.  But we played by the rules, even in the face of massive crimes in 2020, election fraud, and the distribution for purposeful terrorism, Covid from a Wuhan lab in China that killed millions of people, we stood by due process; Trump got on his airplane after leaving the White House, and we stuck to the rule of law even though most of us knew that the law had been manipulated to benefit the cheaters.  It was rough, and we had to endure it gracefully.  It certainly was not easy.  But we had to set up this particular election year of 2024.  In the process, we have rooted out many malicious characters who would have otherwise remained hidden from our view.  What should have been Trump’s second term in office ended up being a terror that showed the world who has been running things behind the scenes because they had to show themselves to attempt to hold power.  And now that they have it, we have a real opportunity to make America great again with more than talk and campaign slogans.  But now the shoe is on the other foot.  The pendulum is swinging in the other direction.  And because we did everything right, it forced the other side to do the same, even though they knew they couldn’t afford anything but violence and chaos in protest.  Because they have cheated to stay in power, they don’t have a very deep bench, and the players they do have are all compromised beyond scrutiny.  And they won’t be able to hold up to what will happen next. 

I had to have some hard talks with many people in the cold early days of 2021 as Biden took office.  We all knew that there had been election fraud.  We had seen the precinct maps of the entire country and knew where the cheating had occurred with over counts on mail-in ballots.   You could see county by county all across the country, then there would be these sudden spikes in voter turnout and results for Biden in critical areas around metropolitan areas, such as Detroit, Phoenix, Philly, Milwaukee, and Atlanta, and everyone knew the cause.  And we watched the paid-for color revolutions before that, where leftist billionaires poured money into minority communities to inspire them to burn down buildings, desecrate historic monuments, and drive discontent all over the nation.  All this happened after the COVID lockdowns, where genuinely evil and malicious people walked into Trump’s office in the White House and urged him to shut down the entire economy to prevent the spread of COVID-19.  We were all justified in picking up arms and taking down the many criminals who had done America wrong in 2020 to steal an election and to unleash an artificial virus engineered for its task to create the opportunity for stolen power.  Many people didn’t want to see Trump leave office in those dark days but to call in the military to prevent the takeover of our country by these globalists advocating open communism, what else were we supposed to do?  It was like the communist revolution in St. Petersburg many years ago, which was now happening in America.  And our American media, including Fox News, was in on it all, and people were lost as to what to do, and they wanted to fight.

I think I stopped many small wars from breaking out that winter and it wasn’t easy.  I had to convince people to let the process play out even though I wanted to lash out myself.  Every movie and book we had ever consumed in entertainment culture told us that the only thing to do was to grab our guns and go hunting for bad guys who had infiltrated our government and to remove them violently.  But we talked against it because there was a bigger prize.  We had a perfect opportunity to exploit these losers for what they were, and we could stand by the rule of law in the face of great adversity and lead by example, which is what we did.  It was challenging and excruciating.  But we have endured it, and now here we are.  Our time for revenge is at hand, and the victory will taste delicious.  It’s our time to watch the other side wiggle in the trap they set for themselves, and there is no reason for us to feel sorry for them for what’s coming because they did it to themselves.  They can only blame themselves, the person who looks back at them in the mirror, for what they have become.  They hoped to provoke us into a mountain of mistakes, and because we didn’t take the bait, they had no choice but to play the game the same way.  And now, after all these years of treating Trump and the rest of us with every kind of abuse of the law that they could get by with, it’s time to pay for all those crimes, and no amount of crying will alleviate them from justice.  Now, they will face the same kind of decisions we had to make, but they aren’t as good as we are, so they don’t have the intellectual means to survive.  Their defeat this time around will crush them and their Marxist, globalist movement with it, and our victory will be better than if we had fought for it with guns and the points of knives. 

They will have no choice but to follow the rule of law, leave the White House, certify the election, and deal with all the policy changes Trump will make toward capitalism in the coming months.  And that is something I couldn’t have said we would have had with a typical Trump second term.  The world was on fire then, and the enemy was desperate.  And we had to play it out.  We needed these last four years to empty their weapons and expose them for what they were.  If Trump had been in the White House, it would have just been another term of a media circus.  People needed to see what Joe Biden and the gang were about, and the pressure forced them to reveal it all.  And since then, the World Economic Forum and their central bankers of doom have been exposed for the actual insurrection of our country that they had long planned and committed to.  And to hold power, they won’t be able to afford to live within the confines of the rule of law.  But they aren’t warranted to unleash their violence, which is their only means of achieving power because they don’t have any public support as a minority terrorist organization.  That is what the Democrat Party is, after all: a terrorist organization for globalists and insurrectionists who want America to be crushed off the world stage forever.  But because we didn’t take the bait, we exposed them in ways they weren’t prepared for.  And the revenge that is coming will be fantastic to witness.  We’ll achieve it because we stayed with the rule of law and did not allow ourselves to be pulled into a nation-ending battle, which we would have otherwise given them justification for violence and malice.  By sticking with the rule of law, they have no choice but to do the same, which they can’t afford to do.  It’s a wonderful paradox.

Trump is the Establishment: The old scam of making money off the government was never acceptable

This is a mystery that I thought was strange, even back in 2016.  We had an event in West Chester for Trump, and all the big players were invited, but many didn’t attend.  At the time, they were worried that John Kasich would be angry with them because he was running for president and he was from Ohio, and people thought he was going to be the guy.  I never thought Kasich would be the guy, neither Ted Cruz nor any others.  To understand why, you had to know what voters were looking for, and this was a trajectory that I remember well going back to the start of Barack Obama’s first term in 2008, after a feeble performance by John McCain.  The way Sarah Palin was treated by everyone back then started a chain reaction that led to Trump.  Another weak shot at the White House in 2012 by Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan was particularly embarrassing; where they thought this high-brow approach of letting the opposition make fun of you, but that we were supposed to be like Christ and hang ourselves on a cross for crucifixion wasn’t going to cut the mustard.  People wanted to fight, and they wanted fighters in politics.  That has always been my position, and any time someone has tried to apply these woke rules to me, some social game like the rules of high school, where the popular kids wouldn’t like you if you didn’t do what they said, it hasn’t worked out well for them.  And that was the platform of the GOP before Trump, and people left that old way.  They embraced Trump as soon as possible and have not looked back ever since.  Because people just got tired of watching the Republican Party lose, and Trump promised wins, which he gave us in large amounts once elected.

And with the same understanding, I knew the Never Trumper movement would fall flat, and Paul Ryan has been at the center of that as an advisor to Fox News.  That he and his gang never understood the political base of the Republican Party, given all the resources they had to work with, is astonishing.  How could they not understand?  But they didn’t and somehow thought that if they kept putting people like Ron DeSantis out there, and Nikki Haley, people who sounded like Trump but weren’t Trump, that people would be stupid and pick who they selected for us.  They had so little understanding of what voters wanted that they didn’t see the frailty of their premise.   And I would talk to people about Trump and tell them that Trump would be the guy many times over the last three years, and people didn’t see it.  I told them people were tired of this shell game, where politicians said one thing to the public but became members of the uni-party as soon as they were elected; that wouldn’t cut it anymore.  It never did.  The problem was that people trusted in the past, but now that they’ve been let down, they were looking for representatives who would fight on their behalf against a system obviously rigged to take power and get rich off the results.  People were sick of it and Trump offered himself as that guy to fix it.  And in 2016, it was just him against the world, and a few people joined the fight early on to help him.  I was one of the early ones, as early as possible since before Trump went down the escalator at Trump Tower in New York. 

Paul Ryan apparently just figured all this out because he stated that MAGA Republicans are the new mainstream as if that is a news flash.  As if that just happened.  He and Mitch McConnell have been functioning all this time without understanding the details of what the Republican Party was.  People would not accept it being a captured asset of the political left.  It became apparent to me when my local congressman, John Boehner, became Speaker of the House, and we saw what he did with all that power.  We knew him and were perplexed that he didn’t seem able to do anything to help our country but go through cosmetic nonsense.  Obama was destroying our country, and Boehner was crying about it.  That became the face of the Republican establishment.  I remember I had a special invite to be with all those Republicans in a get-out-the-vote rally with Kid Rock back in 2012, where Romney, Ryan, Boehner, and Kasich were all going to be on stage together.  And I was given VIP access to all of them.  I politely declined because I was already done with all those losers, and now, ten years later, look just how right I was.  At the time, people looked at me with wide-eyed astonishment.  I knew those guys were not the Republican Party I wanted to be a part of.  They liked losing too much and were far too liberal for me.  As governor of Ohio, John Kasich was an idiot, a major letdown.  I was a fan when he first became the governor, but once he lost that public sector union debate in a 2012 election, he quickly turned away from Tea Party politics and snapped right into loser mode. 

So, it was never my option to pick anybody but Trump.  I thought George Bush, both of them, were too far to the left for me; I worked hard in 1992 to get Ross Perot elected, and even back then, people would tell me I was betraying the Republican Party.  No, I want business executives running the executive office, people who know what they are doing and understand how money works, and what a capitalist country is supposed to perform.  They are not a bunch of lying losers who tell us what we want to hear, then rob our tax money and sell us all out to globalists around the world in the realm of centralized banking.  Even this past Memorial Day, I was with many people at a remote location who were going on and on about Ron DeSantis, and I told them, “No, he’s not going to go anywhere.  People are tired of the lies.  Trump will be the nominee, and no jail or phony charges will stop him.”  All the trouble that has been thrown at Trump has only confirmed just how far down the rabbit hole we always were, and people like Paul Ryan, and other “establishment Republicans” were keeping us from solving the problem, which made people like me very, very angry.  And everything I told everyone about this Trump in 2024 situation has come true, just as I said it would.  So why did people like Paul Ryan still think they were the establishment, and all these highly paid people at Fox News and the Beltway culture fail to see the obvious?  How could they all be so stupid?  Well, it’s because they were corrupt, where they viewed government as a path to easy money, and if there were people like Trump in it, that easy money would be harder to get.  And that’s what the game has been for a long time.  Now, many more people are willing to admit that about their government and demand change.  But the Republican Party establishment was never with the thieves.  The people of the party always wanted results.  But that former establishment lied to them, and for some reason, they thought that behavior would continue forever.  Instead, people stopped listening to them, and Trump became the establishment, along with other MAGA candidates.  And that is the way of the future.  Losing is for losers, and Trump supporters aren’t losers.  They have been abused.  But they never accepted loss as the definition of their Republican Party.  And history will remember these important lessons for many thousands of years.

Learning to Waste Time: Why public education doesn’t make smart people

As I always say, I wouldn’t send my kids to a public school for any amount of money.  If you have an option, you should always use it rather than send your child to such a horrible place.  I’m a big fan of homeschooling for many reasons, but one was most obvious due to several recent events involving one of my grandchildren.  My daughter always updates my wife and me on what she is teaching him, and they take frequent trips down to the Cincinnati Museum Center for education trips, so he’s what I would consider way out in front of other kids his age, which is almost 8.  In many ways, he is way ahead of many 25-year-olds.  He is brilliant, and I don’t just say that because he’s my grandchild.  But his interests are well above and beyond other kids his age.  For instance, this incident of notice was that he one day just painted a map of the known solar system, the inner and outer, and he had details in it regarding planet placement and other celestial bodies that people at NASA would struggle with.  It was very advanced and was a clear sign of a vastly deep interest in the subject of astronomy, and other sciences.  I reminded my daughter that Thomas Edison was homeschooled and if his mom had not taught him independently, he likely would have never developed the genius that he was known for.  I also told my daughter that if her son had painted a picture like that in public school, he would have gotten in trouble for it.  They wouldn’t want the other kids to feel bad for not knowing the same things, so they would have penalized my grandson for showing extraordinary ambition above and beyond. 

Public schools are not designed to create the next Albert Einsteins and Thomas Edisons; they are prone to make the next Karen fight with a welfare recipient over a shopping cart in a Walmart parking lot.  Public schools are not designed to produce intellect.  They are designed to make stupid, compliant people, and I see this all the time in dealing with people of all kinds of educational backgrounds.  The number one thing that public schools teach children is to waste time.  They certainly aren’t trying to get kids to become the next Thomas Edison, which is what my grandson reminds me of, and because he is being homeschooled, we can see the development in him without restriction.  I think most kids are intelligent, but we teach them as a civilization to be stupid.  Our government wants them to be stupid so they cannot challenge their power.  The globalists want stupid people because smart people would never put up with their nonsense.  But the most devastating attribute of government-run schools, and education in general, is that we teach people to waste time.  That wasting time is the priority, not learning.  Being compliant and waiting for someone to give you something, rather than waking up every morning, taking life by the horns, and using it to your advantage.  My grandson gets asked a lot when he goes shopping with my daughter, “Why isn’t he in school?”  Of course, the answer from my daughter is that he finished school at 11 AM.  He started around eight and finished around 11.  Now, he has the rest of the day to do other things, like draw pictures of the solar system, including the contents of the Kuiper Belt.  They do more learning in that four-hour span than most kids get all week, or all month in public school.  And that is sad to realize.

The typical kid wakes up and waits for the bus to pick them up or their parents to drop them off at school.  They then wait for the first class to begin.  They wait for the teacher to give instructions.  They wait for the next class.  They wait in line for lunch.  They wait to go to the bathroom and recess; they wait in line for the drinking fountain.  The primary thing that our education system teaches is for people to wait for things.  So, it should be no surprise that they grow into adults waiting for their tax returns and a pizza to be delivered. They were waiting for a text from a correspondence.  Waiting, waiting, waiting.  They were not taught to do things but to wait for things, so it goes for the rest of their adult lives.  And should we be surprised that we have a society of fools who don’t understand that the election in 2020 was stolen and that our current president is completely illegally inserted?  Or that COVID was a bioweapon built in a lab in Wuhan, China, and released to allow the governments of the world to cheat in elections and knock off rival powers like the United States, not with military weapons, which they don’t have but through the Administrative State.  They exploit their natural inclination to do what the teacher tells them to because they were raised to follow orders and wait for someone to tell them what to do next.  What else does anybody think will happen when society is taught to be compliant, not to think?  And that’s why we have a lot of the problems that we do have socially.  Our education systems have massively failed our society, and almost everyone is a victim of it somehow. 

I’m proud that my kids and their kids are learning not to operate on that ridiculous hamster wheel.  I grew up with most of my friends being honor students, so I’ve always known knowledgeable people.  One guy was so intelligent that he sold his honors robes at his graduation for a small fee to someone who wasn’t very smart, but their family expected to take pictures of them in those robes at graduation.  He sold the robes, and you know what we did with the money? We went to Perkins to have a couple of hamburgers and spend the rest of the day to ourselves while everyone else ran the rat race of wasting time created for them by public education.  I feel pretty strongly about this issue, but when I see a mind alive with excitement and genuine passion for learning, it just reminds me how many other young kids are being disabled for life because the dumb adults in their lives are teaching them to be compliant to the many fools who have acquired power, and they are learning the critical lesson of wasting time.  And they will grow into future employees who waste time.  Taxpayers that waste time.  And gullible fools who believe everything a corrupt government tells them because they are too lazy to ask the obvious questions.  And more concerned with wasting time than learning something new and doing something with that knowledge.  If you trace back many of our modern problems, the source goes back to our education system and its many failures.  Homeschooled kids, at least, aren’t typically taught to accept these failures.  So even if their parents aren’t brilliant, the child isn’t learning to accept such restrictions, making them far better off than their peers for critical thinking.  But unfortunately, this is rare in the world.  I’m happy to see explosive intelligence from my grandchildren because my kids teach them not to accept silly social restrictions to advanced intellectual concepts.  What are we trying to do if we aren’t trying to make the next genius in the world?   I don’t think it’s a mass conspiracy to make the world dumb.  But I think it’s what you get when you let dumb people make up the education system.  You don’t get intelligent people.  But you get people used to wasting time and doing whatever authority figures tell them.  Which, in almost every case, cripples them for life.

Bernie Moreno, Don Jr, and Vivek Ramaswamy at Lori’s Roadhouse: Good people doing good things for all the right reasons

Don Jr Endorsing Bernie Moreno at Lori’s Roadhouse

A reporter for the Cleveland Plains Dealer wanted to talk to me after the Bernie Moreno rally at Lori’s Roadhouse in West Chester, Ohio, on February 28th, 2024.  It was an unusual rally in that Vivek Ramaswamy, Donald Trump Jr., and Kimberly Guilfoyle came with Bernie to support a President Trump endorsement ahead of the March primaries; these were all national figures campaigning for the second senate seat and had the full backing of J.D. Vance.  The reporter wanted to know when I knew I wanted to support Bernie Moreno instead of the two other guys, Frank LaRose and Matt Dolan, and I told him it was late August into September.  I said that Frank had screwed up the election in August for Issue 1, and that was going to hang around his neck for a long time because of what it cost us in Ohio, incredibly loose abortion laws from radical progressive outsiders, and the legalization of pot.  And with Matt Dolan, who owns the Cleveland Indians baseball team and allowed himself to be arm-twisted into changing the name to the Guardians, he was simply too soft.  If that’s all he could do to resist the woke mob of lefties who have taken over our government, then he would be no good as a senator.  As Don Jr pointed out during the Moreno rally, a sports team is a little thing that doesn’t matter much to people in the grand scheme.  If Dolan fell short of courage for that little issue, what would he do in the SWAMP, where things mattered quite a lot and the pressure was much more intense?  As I told the reporter, I know both Frank LaRose and Matt Dolan, and they would be nice, typical politicians under normal circumstances.  But they aren’t the kind of fighters needed these days, where we need MAGA Republicans to fit the Trump agenda once President Trump is back in office, and out of them all, only Bernie Moreno fits the need.

I’ve had the opportunity to meet Bernie Moreno several times now, including the private lunch we had back in September, and for me, it’s not even a question.  He is the right guy to go up against Sherrod Brown, which continued my reasoning to the reporter.  It’s not enough to win the Republican primary; once Trump endorses someone in the Republican Party, it seals it for whoever that is.  But to get elected into the Senate will be a brutal campaign against Brown, who is deeply entrenched, and it will take someone as likable as Moreno to pull it off.  Even with the Trump endorsement, it will be a steep haul, and the other guys have too much baggage.  They have brand damage that Brown will easily exploit in a general election, so it comes down to who can beat Sherrod Brown.  And Bernie is that person.  I knew it when I first met him, and now, in West Chester, Ohio, with the coveted Trump endorsement behind him and compelling personalities campaigning with him, it is pretty clear what the path forward is.  Ohio deserves some of the best possible senators we could get, and J.D. Vance has picked his partner in the act. Our task is to give him the tools he needs to succeed.  So, the picture was becoming quite clear at the Lori’s Roadhouse rally.  It was a packed venue for an afternoon event in the middle of the work week.  After the rally, everyone went up to a fundraiser at Wetherington, and the Republican Party was unifying behind a clear strategy, and it was great to see. 

Don Jr knows how to engage with a crowd

Seeing so many culminating aspects come together that I have watched uniquely over the last few years was very satisfying.  I enjoyed watching Vivek speak, Don Jr, Kimberly, and, of course, Bernie.  Don Jr. is such a good guy, especially in person.  I had some people with me, and Don signed the wallet of one of them, to have such a down-to-earth guy, the firstborn son of an ostentatious billionaire, is a real treasure.  Don Jr. balances celebrity with practicality amazingly well, and he’s funny.  I’ve seen him in person many times now, and he is always a fine line between comedy and serious political commentary.  And, of course, with Vivek Ramaswamy, I remember being invited to an event with him in Middletown where he essentially launched his political career.  The fabulous Nancy Nix was in front of me during the rally, proudly watching the events on stage at Lori’s, almost like a proud mother.  Many people don’t know it, but she has her hand in most of these things in Butler County.   She put Vivek and I together in a meeting ahead of the release of his book Woke, Inc., which I think will be the economic platform for American policy over the next ten years.  I felt it when I first read it, and I am very sure of it now, and Nancy knows it, too.  She was also very important to the launching of J.D. Vance, which I wasn’t convinced of initially.  But Nancy understood these personalities very well and worked hard behind the curtain to ensure everything worked and the right people got into the right jobs and met the right people along the way.

Lori Fisher and her husband Greg own Lori’s Roadhouse, and they certainly go above and beyond. A great place to save America!

I only mention Nancy because as I have come to know some of these people, and this is what I was thinking about while talking to the reporter for the Cleveland newspaper, there is some real magic going on with these events that defy conventional political thinking, and my articulation of the point struck the reporter.  These were not typical political considerations but a fight between the life and death of a country and the world’s economy.  And none of these people, including me, needed to do any of this stuff.  All the people traveling with Bernie are rich and powerful.  They don’t need to be in politics.  And I’ve been involved in Butler County politics in Ohio most of my life, and there aren’t that many good people like Nancy Nix who are not in love with name-dropping and power playing, who just do good things because they want to do good things.  There aren’t enough good people in the world doing good things for good reasons.  That includes Greg and Lori, who run Lori’s Roadhouse, they didn’t need to do what they were doing to support these kinds of events.  As I looked around the room at all the people present, Jim and Lee Redkey were standing next to me, T. C Rogers too, and Michael Ryan, along with many others who could have been doing a million other things with their time.  But they were there to support people who were going to great measure to do the right things for our country.  And it was wonderful to witness.  When you start to see the hidden hand of righteousness working over time toward a grand fortissimo of justice and history playing out before our eyes, it’s a magnificent spectacle that doesn’t quite fit the description in a typical newspaper commentary on politics.  It’s simple yet infinitely complex, as so many moving pieces starting many years ago have moved toward this moment as a destiny seeking to be fulfilled.  And so many people played their part, least not the people on the stage supporting Bernie Moreno.  A promise of great things yet to come because people who define greatness purely, not for the recognition they might get or the financial resources that follow, but because it was the right thing to do is a hope for a future that nobody has yet witnessed in the history of the world.  And it was at Lori’s Roadhouse in West Chester, Ohio, on an unusually warm day and a political onslaught yet to come that greatness peaked its head out for all to see.

I Love Private Planes: Public transportation is garbage, more people should have access to more personalized transportation

There are few things better in the world than getting where you want to go to see people you need to see and not wasting a lot of time doing it so that you can do more of other kinds of things.  So you will never hear any complaints about corporate jets and other luxury modes of transportation from me.  I think it’s OK if extreme liberals like Taylor Swift and the mega communist John Kerry or the global terrorist Bill Gates use private jets to fly around the world attending meetings.  I think it’s great that President Trump has his own 757 to fly around in.  This goofy talk about fossil fuels destroying planet Earth is a scam.  We understand how to terraform entire planets; we can undoubtedly maintain CO2 levels on Earth to sustain clean air artificially.  The entire climate change debate is a hoax designed to change political sentiment from capitalism to communism and is ridiculous.  So you will never hear me complain about private jets or corporate planes.  As a matter of fact, I am looking at the new Piper M700 Fury for many personal reasons.  Anytime I can make my life more efficient, it is a good idea to do so.  And time management is the key to that process.  The new Piper plane is a very good way to get groups of people around the United States quickly.  It costs around $5 million and around $1,200 per hour to operate, but when you have to travel a lot, it is cheaper and more reliable than commercial air travel, which takes too long to fly domestically these days because of all the big government TSA cumbersome security.  When it comes to private planes, you show up to the airport and fly off on time.  Commercial air travel is just a big fancy bus, whereas private planes are like cars, and in our American capitalist economy, we all need more planes to do things faster and more efficiently. 

A great innovation for personal transportation

This isn’t a new thing for me, for years, long before I started this blog site, I worked hard to bring Paul Moller’s M400 Sky Car into some kind of public recognition.  The trouble with that was, during the 90s, the engine development wasn’t there to provide the kind of controlled flight needed for a skycar to float like a hummingbird, the way drone technology today allows.  But in the ’90s, I was working out the details and trying to connect them to private delivery travel, with companies like FedEx and UPS to have point-to-point delivery.  We should have already had a kind of Jetson’s future where everyone had sky cars flying out of their driveways and landing at wherever they worked.  The only reason we don’t is that social governments have slowed down the rate of innovation.  And, of course, their whole plot for the world was revealed during COVID-19, the “work from home” culture.  Communists and central planners have been using climate change as an excuse to reduce the freedom of personal transportation and force people onto public options, such as trains and Uber vehicles.  The Administrative State represents tyrannical centralized governments, and their Deep State partners want less freedom for people and for them to exist in a kind of aristocratic bubble, which is where the whole present mentality has emerged in the private jet culture.  They want to fly them because they are busy saving the world from the masses of people they’d love to kill off to save the planet.  So when people fall into the trap of making the reverse argument, such as Taylor Swift, Bill Gates, and John Kerry are hypocrites for flying private jets, then the trap is set for the argument to support that climate change is real, which it isn’t.  So by criticizing celebrities for flying private planes, the argument for climate change is sustained in public debate, when in actuality, the reverse is true.

One of the most advanced concepts revealed in the Bible, as we know it, is the concept of having dominion over the earth.  Before the Bible and the creation of Western Civilization, humanity was in servitude to nature, which is precisely where progressives want to regress politically in our current time.  By having dominion over nature, capitalism formed to fuel the imagination of the people of Earth to innovate.  And that rate of innovation is essential to the universe’s natural state.  As far as micromanaging finite resources, technical innovation easily solves the problem, especially as we become a space emerging culture.  The argument over private planes, private cars, and even space travel is to take away options from people and force them into micromanaged centralized governments, which stunts GDP growth.  But to maintain control over populations, that is a perfectly acceptable attribute.  Most of those types of people don’t want a population of innovation from free people.  They want control, which means making people dependent, and as a byproduct, they innovate less, and society stifles in reaction.  Which is why we don’t have our own version of Jetson cars.  By now, we should.  Private flight is the ultimate way to get around; more people should have it. I’d like to see it moving away from airports altogether and becoming an option in our driveways, just as easy as getting into our cars as we do now.  We need more options, not less, for independent, remote travel.

The ultimate way to travel

It’s the same argument we have with the RV culture, which I am very supportive of.  Why should people be allowed to pack up a part of their house and take it thousands of miles away when gas mileage consumes about 8 miles per gallon?  You could otherwise fly and stay at a hotel when you arrive.  From experience, I can say that there is nothing like having your own bed while traveling and your own kitchen and dining area.  When you stay at a hotel, you never feel at home, but in your RV, you are always home.  When we travel with our grandkids, they prefer to use the RV restroom instead of going to gas stations that are almost always too dirty.  It is much better not to share space if you can help it.  And to that same effect, it would be good for me to have a new Piper M700 Fury so that I could fly somewhere and back on the same day and not even worry about the sleeping over part when you can fly 5 or 6 people comfortably and quickly somewhere that has far more value than in saving the planet from fuel consumption.  Consume the fuel, achieve the task of intellect, and if the earth needs some resource management, apply terraform technology to maintain stability.  Burn the gas to feed the human intellect because the process of thought and meeting other people to do so is more critical than fake preservation of the planet to serve the needs of micromanagers and centralized authority types.  I love private planes and if more people had them, the cost could come down, and they’d be much more common.  I would like to see a lot more personalized transportation in the sky than restricting travel to the ground as the future evolves.  Humans were made to create; to do so, they need personal freedom.  And private planes provide that kind of freedom in wonderful ways, ways we need to advance and support in a much better way.  We should have a world where everyone could have a Piper M700 Fury or a sky car in every driveway that anybody could fly with the push of a button.
