Dealing with the Bullies of the Political Left: What happens after the election

Probably the biggest thing that everyone is concerned with after this November 5th election of President Trump is what will happen after.  Let’s face it: Democrats are the party of bullies and criminals, and to hide their intentions from the public, they resort most of the time to violence. And that is what people ultimately are afraid of.  So, they elected President Trump to return to the White House.  What happens then?  How do we deal with the radical left and the violence that is part of their interaction with the world?  Well, that just so happens to be my specialty.  As an adult now, I have the unique position of being in a lot of violent fights and coming out well in all of them.  That includes my childhood, which was unusually violent even though I grew up locally in Butler County, Ohio, and went to a good school.  I have always been uncompromising toward evil, so conflict was bound to happen.  For instance, when I was in the first grade, there was a really nasty bully that everyone was afraid of.  And he wanted to fight me right in the middle of class in front of everyone.  He was a big, scary kid who beat up everybody.  And I wasn’t very big at all at the time.  So I knew a fight with him would be tough.  So, as we started the fight, I poked him in the eye with my scissors, and it was a mess.  I got into a lot of trouble, of course.  But it was worth it because I gained something far more valuable: a reputation.  And that reputation would last the rest of my days in school, even up to the present.  When I fought with someone, the people involved often got badly hurt. 

When I was in the 6th grade, there were many fights between these, however, some of these show a pattern of behavior throughout my life; I got into a big fight with a kid much bigger than me right in the hallway in front of the principal’s office.  Most of the school was watching the fight because it was near the locker area right in front of the school in the morning while everyone was arriving.  So they formed a big circle and were watching, so I knew I had to make it good.   It wasn’t going well for the kid, so I needed to do something really dramatic to make sure I made a point. I pushed the kid through the principal’s office doors so hard that he fell into the doorway, and a few teacher assistants were residing there and being knocked away like bowling pins.  I followed it up by rushing him as he was getting up, colliding with him, which forced him backward even further and into the principal’s office where the guy was sitting at his desk.  I figured I was already in trouble, so I made it count.  I got into a lot of trouble, but again, my reputation bloomed as almost everyone in the school had witnessed or heard about it immediately.  It was worth the trouble I got into as a result.  Let me say that.  One thing you learn in these kinds of fights is that fewer people build up the courage to fight you because they know they are going to get hurt.  I was never a bully, but I had a policy not to take any crap from anybody over anything.  And that provoked people who like to give out crap, to try and make a trophy out of me, leaving many of them hurt in destructive ways and certainly damaged for life.  It’s gone forever once you lose a reputation, as with most things.

When I was a junior in high school, there was a group of bullies and a series of conflicts ensued through the winter that year with three of them, and it started over a girl.  I was always a sucker for helping girls when bullies pushed them around.  A trend that is as current as yesterday.  I still do this kind of thing a lot.  But then it was a matter of cafeteria warfare, and it got so bad that during one of these engagements, I punched a hard plastic plate that immediately cut my hand open in several places and exposed my bone and ligaments in front of the entire lunchroom.  Knowing I was severely hurt, I made the most of it and stayed calm even though my bones were sticking out of my hand.  I made a point to continue eating my food even with blood pouring out, taking my time to get to the nurse.  I had to be rushed to the hospital to have emergency plastic surgery because my hand was cut up badly.  It took a few months to heal, but the moment I could close my fist, I agreed to meet three of these guys at the Screaming Bridge, a local haunted spot in Liberty Township back then, for a fight.  And it was going to be a big one.  My friends were going to go and watch me fight these three guys who showed up to the fight location early to set booby traps they intended to push me into.  This was confirmed later in court when all this blew up into a significant headline, as the evidence of their intentions was nothing short of murderous. 

Fortunately for me, and this is why I can confirm Providence as a hidden hand that often shows up when you least expect it; I was with the police when one of those kids was shot and killed by a friend of mine after a car chase.   My reputation being what it was, I was not at the fight when it was supposed to start, and these kids I was supposed to meet told my friends that they had already thrown me down the hill into a series of booby traps they had set there, which frightened my friends because they couldn’t believe it.  So they gunned those kids down and chased them down the road, and a bullet hit one of the provocateurs, killing him.  Of course, the whole school knew I was supposed to fight those kids that night, and the story was all over the news.  So, I was the prime suspect.  But as it occurred, the police had apprehended me for another event that happened the weekend before, so they were questioning me at the exact moment on a Saturday night in late February 1985.  The point of all this is that, yes, I have a lot of experience dealing with bullies and violence.  And I enjoy these engagements.  I have had more guns pointed at me directly over the years than most police officers experience over their entire careers.  Most of the people I knew from back then didn’t make it very far into adulthood, and some had very violent deaths.  But I can say that I’ve seen enough of that behavior to know what will happen after this election. The Democrat bullies are out of gas and are beaten.  Do not be afraid of them.  They are defeated people, and their past has caught up with them.  And you don’t have to take any crap from them.  They are not scary or more powerful and can easily be beaten.  So don’t worry about what they will do after Trump wins the election.  They have only one play in the playbook and that is to bully people into submission.  But if you don’t submit, they don’t know what to do, and based on my experience, they don’t have what it takes to push people around, especially when they are losing as they are now politically.  There is only one path for them, and victory is not it.  And having the ability to bully people around, they have lost forever.  All you have to do is stand up to them.  God will take care of the rest. I’ve seen it all my life, and it happens like clockwork.  So don’t yield to the bullies from the radical left.  Stand up to them and expose them in ways they are unprepared to fight because they can’t.  Be like Joshua when he led the Israelites into Canaan.  God will take care of you if you fight in his name and do what’s right even when it seems scary and unwinnable.

Yes, the Media is Filled with Stupid People: If you want the job done right, sometimes you just have to do it yourself

It seems like I am answering many questions lately from people who have long wanted to ask.  Such as, why have I put so much effort into writing a 1200-word article every day on this blog site, much of the time, accompanied with video for over 15 years.  The answer is that I can do a better job than anybody else in the media, and I say that because over the last 20 years, I have known the kind of people who end up in media, and if we want to tell the story by reporting media, then you can limit the news to the type of people who are typically picked to be in it.  And I say that because I would know.  There was a large part of my life where all I wanted to do was to be a film director and movie producer.  If you go through my writing over the last 15 years, you’ll see a very distinct break by me from all media outlets around the first election for Trump.  Once I came out in favor of Trump, everybody turned on me.  But before that, people in the business tolerated me.  They even invited me to movie sets with A-lits actors and charming dinners in Glendale and Santa Monica, California, to discuss brewing projects.  But there came a time around 2009 when Barack Obama was president when we all had to decide.  The Tea Party movement needed the modern version of Thomas Paine, Ben Franklin, and even John Paul Jones, who could work a revolution from the background.  I also got to know good people who broke away in the media, and I was one of them.  Of all my contacts, I knew quite a few people at Clear Channel Radio, which I utilized to advance Tea Party causes, who would eventually move over to Glenn Beck’s Blaze.  So yes, I have had a lot of opportunities in media. Still, I found through personal experience that people who make a living in media are a particular kind of person. If the truth were going to be told about things, then I would have to take away those elements myself, which is what I have been doing now for quite a long time.

So, doing the blog for me is similar as to why Trump wants to run for president.  It costs him money to run for a political office, and everyone knows what he has been through to do it.  We need the same kind of commitment from people who can afford to, at all levels of society, if we want to make America Great Again.  I gave up on the idea of being one of them in media by identifying myself with the Tea Party movement, and I found over the next five or six years that I could do a lot better on my own.  I know the kind of people who read my blog and do it because they get better news than they do from newspapers and broadcasts, and they get it every day in a way that tells a whole story on a topic instead of some little fragment.   And I don’t do it for fame or opportunity, but because it’s a job that needs to be done. It could only happen if you didn’t care what people thought and didn’t need anybody to pay you to do the job.  So, from top to bottom, I know media personalities at all levels and understand the personality types who survive in the business, and I determined that I would do the job myself if I wanted it done right. 

I would say most media types are whores.  I found it reprehensible what Clear Channel did to Doc Thompson, a pretty good friend who worked directly for Glenn Beck after quite a lot going on behind the scenes.  For a long time, I was careful not to call people out too much because chances were, they would call me to be on a show.  I’d write a book, and my publishers didn’t want me to rock the boat personally with things, so I tried to keep personalities out of my comments.  But during Trump’s last term, when I saw how everyone treated him, especially in the media, I just tossed all that out the window and stopped answering the calls or appearing anywhere.  Of course, I alienated people at a significant personal cost to me.  But that’s OK.  I have done what I think is a good job on a desperately needed topic.  Because most people who are in the media, and survive there, aren’t very good people for many reasons.  In Cincinnati, there was a time about a decade ago when I knew most every media personality on a first-name basis, and I had their phone numbers and would send them text messages often throughout the day.  Even in 2019, when I was on vacation with my wife at the Epcot Center in Florida, I had the media people at Channel 12 wanting to know the latest on the Trump front in Butler County, and I reluctantly took the call because I liked the guy.  But it was a nowhere story to feed a narrative they didn’t really want to get.  All the media personalities were cheerleading for the removal of Trump, and I lost any desire to correspond with them. 

So because the media is such a mess, and when Trump calls them “fake news,” I know all too well what he means.  He understands it because he was a media darling for a long time, and they invited him into their world.  Trump used that knowledge to be president and started to untie all the shoes of the rat-infested substructure of all media during that first term.  There were a lot of people who had to make hard decisions, and I was certainly one of them.  And I’m glad I did.  I think if I hadn’t poured millions and millions of words that people needed to hear into this AI-infested media climate, there are a lot of influential people who would only have had Fox News and some conservatives from New York writing books to help shape their courage where it matters in day to day matters.  I have always been good at media, like many people.  But what was different about me was that I could do other things, too.  I didn’t have to eat out of the hand of some money investor who wanted to drive a media narrative, especially once Trump became involved in the story.  I was free to talk about Trump any way I wanted.  Many might remember the radio broadcasts I did out of Ann Arbor, Michigan, from 2016 to 2018.  It was a privately owned radio station where I frequently hosted Saturday shows.  I would talk about the benefits of the Trump presidency, and even they were reserved because it was the culture of media that was a problem, and they needed advertising dollars to stay open, and they were always worried about being shut down by the FCC and their advertisers.  So, I have been writing this blog for a long time now.  I am happy with the work that has been a slow trickle working in the background for a long time.  And I have done it because I wanted to, because I wanted people to hear at least a critical opinion that was not at all whored out to any money tied interest.  I’m glad all that occurred.  But yes, from my knowledge, I can say it: the media is filled with people who are not very smart and incapable of seeing the big picture.  And the big picture is where the story always was.  Telling that story takes a perspective of freedom that cannot come from an insider.  Of course, the cost to all that is lost opportunity, financially.  But the value exceeds money by a lot because, in truth, there is an expansion of the human race for which we presently sit on the precipice in ways that seemed impossible just a few years ago.  Yet, here we are.  And yes, it was all worth it.  Things don’t always work out the way you think they will.  But often, because you do things for the right reasons, things work out for the better.

Democrats Do Not Respect Civilian Oversight: The disaster of Kamala Harris skipping the Al Smith Dinner

As we get down the stretch of the 2024 election, the big takeaway and primary reason that many Democrats have peeled away from the party only to join Republicans is that a ruse has been exposed that was long concealed.  Democrats with a foundation of Marxism never respected voters’ opinions.  They ultimately adopted the globalist policy of rigged elections to gain and hold power.  They never intended to win people over with a compelling argument about their political platform.  Their entire political strategy has been essentially high school politics; you were either a cool kid or weren’t.  And if that were the case, then you would be cast from society, a society they controlled.  No, what they lost most over the last four years has been their brand.  Nobody wants to be one of the cool kids if what you get is a Democrat.  That was particularly revealing when Tulsi Gabbard announced at a recent Trump rally that she was joining the Republican Party.  Trump has been fantastic at opening up the big tent of the Republican Party in ways that no other Republican in history could have, leaving it indeed a party of the Americans.  When you consider that Robert F. Kennedy joined Trump’s campaign with the intention of a critical position in the White House and Elon Musk suddenly became a Tea Party kind of Republican, the Trump campaign has just been fantastic down the stretch.  Trump has done everything that could be done to bring people into support of him, especially with people of color and among the immigrant population.  There have been a lot of great moments, but I think one of the best will be remembered by the Al Smith Dinner of 2024, where Trump was brilliantly funny.  Most of all, he showed up, but Kamala Harris didn’t. 

Democrats are playing a game they thought would work, and it is consistent with their actions over the past three or four decades.  But Trump exposed it with all his persuasive live performances, especially at the Al Smith Dinner.  When Trump went to the one in 2016, Hillary Clinton was there, and she went and spoke.  She didn’t do very well, but she figured it didn’t matter at that time.  The machine would win for her, so she showed up and did her part.  Trump was great that year, too, but this time, he was outstanding.  But Kamala Harris didn’t show up, and instead sent in a video with a kind of Saturday Night Live skit to help carry Kamala over the top.  Democrats are like that kid who didn’t study for the big test and showed up expecting to cheat on someone’s paper.  Democrats weren’t prepared to run a real campaign for power in America.  They counted exclusively on election theft to win, like all the other Marxist countries in the world presently do, and they were so disrespectful about it that they picked a candidate in Kamala Harris who would do whatever they told her to and run her campaign from concealment the entire time.  Because they have such little respect for the democratic process and the self-government concept of Americans in general, they were not able to compete when Trump made the campaign truly about competency and representation.  The strategies of personal destruction suddenly didn’t work at all with Trump because he didn’t need the Democrats to crown him one of the “cool kids.”  He already was one.  Trump has changed the definition of a cool kid over the last eight years.

The Al Smith Dinner was embarrassing for Kamala Harris because it was so out of step with the nature of the 2024 campaign.  There was no compelling argument to make on behalf of Democrats, causing them to leave the party, such as what Tulsi Gabbard and many others have done.  Just think about how many people have done the same thing all across the country, and they know what will happen in this election.  Now that the close of the election is near, even the big media outlets understand what will happen.  They tried to run the same closet campaign for Kamala that they did for Biden the first time, but people aren’t buying into it.  There is no COVID to cover for their massive attempts at election fraud, and most anybody who isn’t a crazy lunatic of anti-American sentiment is voting for Trump.  And as I have said all along, it will all come down to engagement.  Trump has engaged voters who are excited to vote for him.  Kamala Harris has a few fringed cat ladies and a hamster.  But nobody else.  Trump will break into the seventy millions.  Kamala will be lucky to get out of the sixties.  Trump will win the popular vote because there won’t be the same opportunities to cheat that were so common in 2020.  And the Democrats are panicking over it.  Even CNN has figured out that they will have egg on their face if they support Kamala, who had a particularly disastrous performance there, too, with Anderson Cooper.  When the smoke clears from this one, people will wonder how so many people got it all wrong, and they’ll point to that disastrous Al Smith Dinner with the video contribution by a weird Saturday Night Live skit as the root cause. 

I know quite a few Secret Service Agents, and they report that they can’t see the forest for the trees.  Even with all that I have said, they fear that Kamala Harris will win anyway because they genuinely think the “machine” of politics is truly in charge.  And I tell them they are too close to the situation to be objective.  But plenty of people want to argue with me and believe that Kamala Harris will win as a propped-up asset of the machine, and she thinks so, too.  That is until she was heckled at a recent rally where people broke out into a Trump chant, and she became furious about it.  I hear what everyone says about the machine being in charge.  But in America, that is not acceptable, and Trump has done everything that can be done to unite the country behind the Republican Party, which will have a significant impact up and down the ticket in general for all races.  I see significant losses for Democrats that will wipe them out generationally and even perhaps as a viable political party.  After all this, they may join the Whigs in history as they don’t represent the American people but a globalist ideology that most people find repulsive once they find out what it is.  And the Democrats were exposed through competition for really the first time.  Voters have been looking for someone like Trump to expose this shell game for a long time, and essentially, this is the first time that the stress fractures exposed Democrats for what they have always been hiding.  And it was never more evident than when Kamala Harris skipped the Al Smith Dinner in 2024, even with Chuck Schumer sitting right next to the podium where the speeches were given.  In a friendly venue, she couldn’t even perform there.  But Trump did, and did it very well, leaving no doubt who the winner of the presidency would be.  And history will never forget it.

The Ruthlessness of Smiling Faces: What people are really up to

First of all, even though I am talking about a recent fast draw competition with the Ohio Fast Draw guys in Ohio, I am not talking about that event, but many other things that are relevant in ways that aren’t always so obvious.  Human nature is what it is, and all things are applicable.  But this particular example is appropriate across the tapestry of competition.  And to that point, I am used to extreme ruthlessness in human nature.  I don’t see the smiles that people provide to disarm your sensibilities as being innocent.  I see the worst in people because that’s my experience based on years of opinion.  So, when I attended a recent Ohio Fast Draw competition in Cleveland, I went out in support for the group because the attendance was dropping, and I wanted to boost the membership with my presence.  But from my point of view, it was hard in the second half of the year to attend the events, starting with the one in August, which I missed.  It was a late night with many good GOP people, including Bernie Moreno, Warren Davidson, George Lang, and many others, and we stayed way too late listening with a VIP perspective to a Jason Aldean concert.  I didn’t get on the road in time to get to Cleveland, which broke my routine for the year.  Up until that point, I had attended all the Ohio Fast Draw competitions.  But August, September, and the rest of the year until Christmas are too busy for me.  My goal for the year was to get to all the Ohio Fast Draw competitions and show my support for them.  But once I missed the one in August, it bothered me to have that intention disrupted.

My gun minutes before a competition

I learned at the next event I did manage to get to that other shooters were not unhappy that I did not show up.  I had been winning many trophies, and people felt that because I wasn’t there, they’d get a better chance to win themselves.  I didn’t let it bother me because I like the people who are typically in Fast Draw.  I understand and respect the ruthlessness of human nature.  So, I put those thoughts into a category of their own to deal with as I saw fit.  Even so, I tried hard to make the next competition to support the organization.  I didn’t have time for it.  I didn’t need any more trophies for the year.  I just wanted to see attendance grow, not recede.  I think Fast Draw should be a sport that more people participate in; it’s better than golf, bowling, or other competitive events.  But a lot of young people these days don’t know much about gun fighting because it’s not part of their cultural experience, as more woke activities have become part of their lives.  So, I am interested in seeing organizations like Ohio Fast Draw survive well into the future, and I would like to see them grow in popularity.  But when I showed up to the most recent Cleveland event, I was already strung well too thin, and didn’t have the time to give.  I attended to support friends.  I was disappointed that I wasn’t very welcome and that many of them hoped I wouldn’t show up.  Now, things get murky because people often don’t say what they really mean.  And they usually hide malicious intent behind appearing helpful.  So people think that what they believe deep within themselves is hidden from the outside world and that nobody really knows what’s going on if they don’t admit to something.  Well, I know everything that goes on.  I understand every aspect of human nature, so nothing stays hidden from me.  I know what is going on with everyone at all times.  And it wasn’t hard for me to figure out what was happening when I arrived at the Cleveland competition. 

In Fast Draw, severe rules for activity on the firing line, safety, and other considerations are rigorous.  Some of the more competitive people in these events go crazy when they hear a cell phone and people whisper in the background while shooting.  They get mad at every little distraction.  So, given that context, I thought it was highly unusual that at my gun check at this event, there was so much concern over my gun having a sticky trigger.  I didn’t ask for any advice; it was the same gun I had used to win several competitions that year, and it worked well for me.  But many Fast Draw shooters perform a lot of work on their guns, hoping to give themselves a slight edge in speed.  So it mystifies them that I use a mostly stock gun and that it has a heavy hammer pull.  Now, given some of the people involved in volunteering to tear my gun apart looking for a problem that wasn’t there, I thought being friendly and respectful was more important than showing anger that I was missing the opportunity to practice before the competition started.  I think they were genuinely trying to be helpful.  But I also felt that something more malicious was going on, and the longer it went on, the more angry I got. 

At the end of a lot of work, several shooters offered to loan me a gun to shoot with that day, which, on the surface, appeared helpful.  But they all know what distractions and changing anything on the firing line do to the process.  So, I found it disrespectful to see that they had made a point to look like helpful behavior to sabotage my approach to shooting in that competition.  I didn’t ask for help.  I didn’t want any help.  And I would have rather been left alone because there was more going on than trying to appear helpful.  The combined efforts were an attempt at sabotage because as the day progressed, it became pronounced that I was the center of many of their thoughts, and they had prepared for that event with an intention against me personally.  Here’s the deal: I won a lot at these competitions because of my shooting method, not because of the tricks of the gun or luck.  My times are consistently good because I shoot close to the hip in a fashion that looks slower to go fast.  And the frustration against me has been that I look like I’m not trying to go fast all the time and shoot in the .300s and even .200s.  I could, but in Ohio Fast Draw, missing the target would become more common, and you would get penalized for missing.  You are judged on speed and accuracy.  I ended up doing OK for the day.  The worries about my gun and the overall process of the day did have an impact, but I worked through it.  Part of the benefit of competitions like that is that learning to manage stress under tremendous pressure is the real takeaway.  So I thought it was a positive experience.  But I was very disappointed to see that so many of those other shooters were happy to see me having a bad day.  They wanted it, which was a good lesson that applies to most things.  It’s the way people are.  You hope that people will overcome that natural tendency.  But Fast Draw is meant to be ruthless, and people being friendly to each other is only a cosmetic ruse for their true intentions.  While I wanted to think more about people, it wasn’t enjoyable to see where their minds were.  The main rule in gun fighting competitions is that you don’t point out every little rule that might distract a shooter on the line, then break all those rules to gain personal advantage.  That behavior might help a person win a few times here and there.  However, it will destroy the initiative of any future shooters who want to take up the sport and grow in a positive direction.  This is precisely why attendance this year has been light and is only getting worse.  When it comes to human behavior, I don’t miss anything, and the moral to the story in this case is that a short-sighted win only hurts the future, which is becoming obvious to everyone.

I expect ruthlessness out of people.  And again, I’m talking about more than my experiences with the Ohio Fast Draw Association.  I would like to relax and spend time with people of common interest in shooting sports.  But often as it is in most things in life, you don’t get what you want.  You get what you get, and you either deal with it, or you are crushed by it.  So with that in mind, don’t try to hide ruthless behavior through a thin veil of helpfulness.  I see it all for what it is, at every level that it’s presented.  There is nothing about human nature, or action, that I do not see. And I see it in ways that most people even hide from themselves. There’s a reason I don’t say much to anybody, it’s because I am perpetually let down by other people all the time and I don’t expect much out of them.  And I don’t ask much of anybody because I don’t want them to have to lie to me when they have no intention to live up to my expectations. I have to manage my disappointment in people by limiting how much I interact with them.  But never think I’m not going to see the truth that is really there looming in the background.  Even if it’s just a shooting sport in recreation, or if it’s millions of dollars at stake.  It’s all the same game played by all the same kind of people for all the same reasons.  People in life want the least path to success with the least effort.  And they hate people who work hard and develop themselves skillfully.  As I have said many times, which is a big feature of my book, The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business, “Rules are made by the losers of the world to give them an advantage over the competent.”  And as much as I know that rule to be the fact of life, it does bother me each time it is confirmed true by reality.

I Want a Tesla Bot: We need robots to fill the jobs of a lazy workforce and expanding economy

I was very encouraged by the recent product launch of Tesla’s new Optimus Bot, which was revealed to the world just before the SpaceX landing of the Super Heavy booster at Boca Chica, Texas.  Not that the launch event should have taken a back seat to anything, but the SpaceX news was so tremendous that it did.  But to answer the question about the Tesla Bots, I would certainly buy one.  If all they cost is $20-$30K, I could see buying a lot of them because, essentially, they would be like your very own C-3PO from Star Wars, a mechanical assistant to all the things a human just doesn’t have time for.  When Elon Musk said during the product launch that he thought these would be the hottest-selling products in the world, I think he was right.  In the future, they will be as common as a calculator is today.  When calculators first came out, they were a bit of a novelty.  But their usefulness was quickly appreciated.  The Tesla Bots, called Optimus, have been criticized for their flamboyant walking around and pouring drinks for people, as engineers were operating them, but the concept was good.  I’ve seen enough from Tesla AI to know that they’ll get all the bugs worked out and that these Tesla Bots will learn enough from humans to self-navigate and interact with their environment properly.  The ability of SpaceX, another Elon Musk company, to land that Super Heavy Booster back to earth from space with AI technology is essentially much more complicated than teaching a robot to walk around a room and perform basic tasks, so we are seeing something very new being launched here by Tesla that will be tremendously beneficial to the future. 

I enjoyed watching President Trump work a McDonald’s drive-thru. That was a brilliant campaign move, and it showed just how good he is as a person to recognize that something like that needed to be done and that, as a billionaire, he would do it to show people he can relate with them.  Most people work a fast-food job at some point as a first or second job, and I think they are extraordinary experiences.  When I review job applications for opportunities, I look for them to reveal fast food experience since I believe those are great places to learn a work ethic.  Fast-food restaurants are high-pressure environments where speed and quality go hand in hand, and it’s good for people to be exposed to them.  Almost every human being interacts with a fast-food restaurant, likely several times a week.  So, one thing we all have in common is our need for food and the way that food is made and delivered.  So, there was a lot about President Trump working at that McDonald’s in Pennsylvania that was good.  But I talk about them a lot because it’s one of the first places where you can see a weakness in the labor market.  I go to McDonald’s a lot, all over the country, especially in Ohio, as I travel around to fast-draw competitions.  And I see a lot of short staffing in fast food places where most have never recovered from Covid.  I have worked at several fast-food restaurants personally, McDonald’s, Wendy’s, and even Frisch’s, so I know what kind of management decisions go into closing down a second drive-thru window or a dining room over staffing concerns.  I understand why people call off work and why they come to work; I learned a lot during my various jobs in the restaurant industry when I was young.  More than any other source of education.  Until you’ve run the front grill, the drive-thru grill, and the fry station all by yourself at a Wendy’s at the Kings Island location, which was busy all day long, you haven’t yet lived.  But I did that job at the time better than anybody in Cincinnati routinely, and I liked it because it was so challenging.  And for the critics out there, which I have many, I worked that job at the Kings Island location as a second job, working 30 hours per week, including weekends, and my wife and I only had one car.  So I rode a bicycle to get to work through the snow and pouring rain even when the temperature was -10 below zero.  And I never called off.  I never got sick.  And I was never late.  Ever!  My former employers could all testify to those facts. 

The point is that our labor market is permanently damaged.  Even if it were like it used to be, where people had a decent work ethic and showed up for work, we would still have a problem.  Our economy needs to outgrow the limits of a workforce.  Not to be penalized by it.  Meaning we cannot limit our workforce to the limits of labor.  This has been a deliberate scheme by globalists to harm the productivity of American culture and capitalism in general, and we are today seeing the effects of decades of this erosion.  So the future needs an alternative, especially in what I can see as a practical reality in about ten years for the first McDonald’s to be launched literally in space, either on Mars, the Moon, or an orbiting space station.  Don’t laugh; things will move fast once President Trump is elected, and things will happen technologically in a whirlwind. But what we can’t have happen is that our management forces waste all their time trying to call a bunch of lazy kids into work who would rather sit at home and play video games.  I see these Tesla Bots first being applied to industries such as fast food to serve in those much-needed positions.  They run for up to 20 hours, so for basic things like prepping food and delivering it out of a drive-thru window, these Tesla Bots could fill the many job needs that are currently a big problem in the fast food industry.  And they’d be quicker and more efficient than many of the slack-jawed losers currently in those positions. 

Yes, of course, labor unions will have a problem with automated robots doing the work of human beings.  But the economy needs to grow, and labor limits can’t stifle it.  Humans and robots will help each other much the way they do in Star Wars, as natural extensions of human intellect.  What I have often said about Star Wars is that through art and entertainment, the human race has been working out this upcoming reality for a long time.  Now that we have a few generations who understand the concept through fiction, such as Elon Musk, who was exposed to it as a youth, an engineering reality can take place, which we see unfolding in our present time.  The technology is there, the concept has been there, and all we have needed was a President like Trump to come in and take the restrictor plates off the economy to set everything loose.  And that is what we see going on in October of 2024.  I can see these Tesla Bots performing critical tasks in almost all basic manufacturing, and they will cost a lot less than an average employee, but they never stop, only to be recharged.  So, I can see the Tesla Bots expanding sovereign countries’ economic potential and fueling the labor needs for our civilization to move into space.  What would be better to start a civilization on Mars or Europa than a fleet of Tesla Bots going ahead of humans and building small colonies on their own so that when humans arrive, everything is nice and cozy for them to start the actual work?  I think Tesla Bots will be a big part of my life, and I can see buying thousands of them over the next 20 years.  And I think they will tremendously benefit the world we have been preparing for over the last several thousand years, and I’m very excited about it.

Reality Cannot Be Defined By The Lazy Losers: Competition makes everything better

I’ve heard a lot about reality lately, defined by those who are not so ambitious.  Where reality in a proposed Marxist world is determined by the lazy and not very skilled, truth be told, at the age I’m at now, I get asked a lot why I do so many competitive events.  Do I need a few more trophies for my wall and office?  Personally, I don’t.  But I do get involved in those kinds of things, especially in shooting sports, because it tells me a lot about people in general, and I get a kick out of just how much competitors will do as rivals to make themselves better.  When I go to a competitive event, even if I don’t mean malice on my part, I have watched people drive themselves to near insanity with competitive zeal.  And I think that’s a good thing, and I enjoy inserting myself into places where competition is most needed.  And out of all the trophies I have won over the years when I look at them, I don’t so much think of the many victories but of what I was able to do to provoke more competition into people’s lives.  I did get a kick out of a recent shooting competition where there was a not-so-subtle attempt by most of the shooters to distract me from the task of winning.  It’s like a free throw shooter in basketball with audience members waving in the background to divert your attention from the accuracy needed.  But that’s all part of the process, and in the wake of all that competition, things have improved dramatically, which is one of the critical points of my book, The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business.  Capitalism over socialism.  Competitiveness over lazy stagnation.  I consider my work in the world good if I have an army of rivals up all night sweating like pigs, trying to plot some way to beat me.  In that way, I purposely go out of my way to improve the world by making myself a target for that improvement.  And it makes me happy to see people try so hard.

But regarding those shooting competitions, the ones who want to win not by competing, but by some form of sabotage, baked into that mentality are the various levels of Marxism that have so permeated our society.  If people want to win by penalizing you somehow, they aren’t trying to win with a fair fight.  They are trying to win with sabotage.  But even in those circumstances, you can learn much about people and what holds back a culture.  So my interest in shooting sports is to get to that raw essence that is at the heart of all human activity.  Shooters are very competitive and, to a large degree, extremely malicious when left untended.  But they don’t disguise it the way you see in other fields of activity, and it always gives me a good perspective on the human condition.  And that is the nature of reality.  I recently stopped by several McDonald’s restaurants for food while traveling for a fast-draw competition with a particularly intense competitive environment as a backdrop for the whole event.  I noticed that the first window had been abandoned out of the standard two drive-thru windows because of staffing problems.  I’ve talked a lot about McDonald’s restaurants in 2024 because they suffer from short staffing due to a bad Biden economy.  And that the trend of the average worker is to say that such a limitation is “reality.” 

We have allowed Marxism into our world, including the attitude in competitive events where the expectation is to penalize the competitor and to prop up the weak with lowered standards.  When I am in shooting competitions, I love to hear the person beside me breathing deeply and trying hard to beat me like it’s the only thing they have been thinking of for months beforehand.  It is good to be the one everyone wants to beat, even if they have to rig the game.  Because it breaks loose the otherwise mundane existence we see in all Marxist cultures.  When lazy losers and the unskilled try to alter reality with lowered expectations, a great detriment is being imposed on our culture.  I’d rather see people go insane over competition than try to make reality a dismal frontier of bland scrutiny.  At one of those McDonald’s restaurants during that shooting competition, they did not open both drive-thru windows, but the young girl working that second window was trying to keep her times down with great effort anyway.  And when I told her she was very speedy, her face beamed excitedly because she was glad someone noticed.  She would be paid to be fast or slow on that drive-thru window, all the same.  But she chose to go fast, and I’m glad she did because I was in a hurry, as usual.  There is a lot to do in the world; the quicker we can do it, the better.  And that pressure is healthy; people need that pressure.  They need to feel that competitive zeal.  They need to think of hatred for a competitor getting in their grill.  Because in their efforts to defeat you, they will become better people. 

So, in that respect, we don’t accept reality as defined by the lazy losers of the world.  For instance, I showed up at a gun shoot recently, and most of the people there obviously didn’t want me to arrive.  They hoped I wouldn’t come to the event because they would have a better chance of winning if I wasn’t there.  So they conspired to act concerned about some mechanical issue that was going on with my gun during its initial inspection.  So, before I knew it, a small team of people wanted to help resolve the problem, which, to me, wasn’t a problem.  But for them, it was necessary to put doubt in my head and distract me in the confidence of my equipment.  I tried to be as polite as possible during all this because what is looming in the background is a recognition that they are trying to keep reality pinned down to a status quo that facilitates their lackluster speed and endurance.  And it’s gotten so bad over the years that when people find out I’m coming to a competition, they withdraw so they don’t have to suffer embarrassment.  So many games go on psychologically and essentially struggle to keep reality from being defined by the best but by the laziest and least ambitious.  To see it clearly, I go out of my way to compete in many endeavors so that I don’t lose touch with that feeling and that hatred that usually comes from competition that is never really friendly. If people are being nice to you, it’s because they are trying to take the edge off you to make it easier for them with less vigor and expectation.  A competition between friends is a nice concept.  But truthfully, it’s always ruthless, and it should be.  At least honesty, in reality, is defined by the solid and competent, who push the lazy and lackluster to perform better than they otherwise would.  When I look at my many trophies, I think of each one of those occasions and remember that to win meant you had to push other people toward improving themselves for the better.  And in those small ways, big things do happen when competition is stiffest, and you fill the minds of your rivals with fantasies of victory for which they would never even attempt otherwise.  And in that way, reality is defined by those who work hardest and are the best.  Not those too lazy to strive to be anything more than a slug.  When you push yourself to compete at anything, it helps to see the need for competition where it’s needed most.  This is why I spend my time doing competitions rather than sitting in a rocking chair on the front porch waving at cars as they drive by.  Making the world better starts with a good competitive attitude and a lot of hard work.

Nobody Wants Beta Men, Not Even Women: The disaster left behind by progressive Democrats and their plots of doom

Trump was hilarious at the Al Smith Dinner in 2024 by calling various men from the Democrat party essentially women, and people laughed because they knew the truth.  Even women.  This whole women’s rights thing has been a disaster.  Not that we should treat women unfairly and not allow them to vote and own property, but in the more subtle strategy of destroying the American family.  There are a lot of things coming undone in 2024, and this issue of wokeness and robbing society of extraordinary women and powerful women is being rejected as we speak, and Trump gets that trend.  He played on it with jokes that were more than true, making them funny and a forbidden subject that has been taboo in our society.  When Trump told Chuck Schumer, with him sitting right next to him during the speech, that Chuck might still get a chance to be the first woman president, the joke became the highlight of the evening and more than a little bit true.  This discussion has mainly emerged during the campaign season of 2024, with Democrats digging in on toxic masculinity by exhibiting Doug Emhoff, Kamala’s husband, as an example of what the 21st-century man should be.  But as the Harris campaign moved in that direction, people started doing some digging and found out that Kamala’s husband had been naughty to women, treating them in very scandalous ways, slapping them, and forcing them to flirt with him at his law practice.  This brings up the secret behind the entire Democrat party: they often present a public profile to hide what they do in public.  And by talking about toxic masculinity, they hope that the low-information voter will overlook all their evil actions.  Just as they have done with Tampon Tim, the proposed vice presidential candidate for Kamala Harris, as he has promoted tampoons in men’s bathrooms but trying to get the public to think of him as a hunter and gun rights advocate.  Democrats are liars who use politics and the power that comes from it to mask their intention to abuse other people and commit crimes. 

The creation of the beta male has been very destructive for the human race.  Men are typically physically more robust, so fighting with each other tends to be more literal.  Men are quick to anger; they might have a vicious fight in a parking lot, but they get over things quickly and can often become fast friends with their enemies.  Women, though, are more psychological.  Since they don’t have physical strength, they have developed mind games, which often mystifies men.  And that has been going on for many thousands of years.  However, once progressive society encouraged women to enter the workplace, to attack the American family, American business, and the essential structure of how humans engage with each other, what has happened has brought everyone a lot of dissatisfaction, which is lingering behind this current political movement.  Women like men for what men do for them, and men like women for what they do for them.  And that was fine somewhat until progressive in the form of the modern Democrat party, coming straight from the manipulators at the World Economic Forum, started telling people that men can be women, and women, men depending on how they felt that day, and they screwed up everything.  That attitude has also shown up in the workplace.  When people have to do business with each other, there is much less directness than there used to be, making doing business much less effective.  Too few people say what they mean, making it hard to get anything done. 

This poison was purposeful, of course.  However, people in their workplaces are tired of the effects, and the change in attitude toward what the Democrat platform has deeply committed itself to results from massive dissatisfaction.  Yet the Democrats behind Kamala Harris are tone-deaf to it.  They are committed to the communist cause and can see no other way.  That plan meant that toxic men who might stand up to the communist push needed to be removed and replaced in business, politics, and life in general with more people like Doug Emhoff and fewer like Donald Trump. It hasn’t worked out the way it was intended, but the Democrats keep giving us more of them, only to have society laugh at the results.  That’s why Trump said what he said at the Al Smith Dinner; he understands what people think.  Just as when he said on Access Hollywood about women, it was the kind of locker room talk people want to engage in.  Because there is truth in it, men talk about women in superficial ways because that is how they are wired biologically to interact with them.  Women want deeper meanings and can often find they can easily manipulate men to their advantage.  Over thousands of years, we have all developed checks and balances on that power, which Trump understands all too well and has exhibited many times over.  And the dumb people thought Trump talking about grade-A female genitalia were assuming that the progressive mind control message would overcome biology, and that turned out to be a complete disaster.  People being polite entertained those woke rules until they saw what they did to the world around them.  And now they are changing their mind.  But rather than adapting to those observations, Democrats have dug in. 

Turning men into betas has been catastrophic because now nobody tells the truth about anything.  Every interaction has turned passive-aggressive because all fighting has become a kind of sissy-slapping contest.  One thing that Democrats have not looked in the mirror yet to admit to themselves is that Trump is the choice of people who want masculinity to be back in society, especially in leadership positions.  I remember seeing Trump at Tea Party events around 2010 when a small crowd of people who loved his Art of the Deal books would show up to hear him speak.  Back then, much of this progressive woke stuff wasn’t known about its impact on everyone’s lives.  Trump didn’t suddenly arrive on the scene with thousands of people waiting all day to see him.  He became that way because he offered himself up as an alternative to the nonsense of the new beta male rules given to us by vile Democrats who want to destroy the world as we know it.  And we like our world; we like women; we like men; we like tough people; and we like leaders.  We don’t want cry babies who cry their eyes out over a caterpillar squashed on the sidewalk.  We don’t like men who take off for maternity leave.  I say to other men daily, “Did you have the baby?  Your wife did.  You need to get back to work and be a man.  Be tough.”  Work when you’re not feeling well.  Lead when you’d rather take a nap because you are too tired.  Be brutal when it’s hard because people count on you to fight when they are too weak to do it themselves.  And as to these beta males, women don’t want them.   Nobody wants them.  And that was never going to be a thing.  Beta men make the world far worse.  The world doesn’t need where everyone fights like a bunch of women.  Because then, nothing will get done.

Trump is Doing a Rally at Madison Square Gardens: Kamala is so bad, nobody will ever believe she could win

The differences couldn’t have been more clear between President Trump and the ridiculously disastrous presentation of Kamala Harris than at the Al Smith Dinner in New York in October 2024.  Trump was hilarious and spoke well. He attended the live show that traditionally invites both candidates to speak during election campaigns and raise charity money.  While Trump showed that he could have a sense of humor, he demonstrated beyond any reasonable doubt that he isn’t afraid to go into the lair of a beast and to slay it directly.  He was very tough on Chuck Schumer when he told him that “because Democrats are so woke, that if Kamala doesn’t win, that he could still be the first woman president.”  Trump also lit up the former mayor, Bill de Blasio, without any pretense of being friendly.  He doesn’t like him and Trump made it quite clear.  It was a very emotional evening, just a few weeks before voters decided on the direction of America, which indicated a Trump win.  And with all the stakes present, Kamala Harris didn’t go, as she has shown real difficulty in doing live events.  Kamala, as the sitting Vice President, had so little faith in herself and her staff that she recorded a video and sent that to the event, which was horrendous.  Kamala couldn’t do that by herself; instead, she brought in a Saturday Night Live comedian to do most of the talking, which was embarrassing.  Seeing how little Kamala’s team thinks of us was a shame.  But then again, it confirms what we have all suspected all along.  That they believe invisible hands control our presidency and that they don’t have to do events like the Al Smith Dinner.  They can win the presidency anyway with tricks and election fraud. 

So, one of two things is going to happen.  The Kamala Harris team is either dumber than anybody thought or completely tone-deaf to reality, and they will lose in a fiery crash.  Or we have no control over our election system and are going to have to take back our country with physical force.  Trump has gone all in and is putting such an exclamation point on the entire race, pulling well ahead of Kamala in early polling, that he has booked Madison Square Gardens as a campaign rally location.   Internal polling shows that Trump has a chance in areas that typically Republicans don’t, and Kamala is so bad that he believes he has a chance.  Trump even held a rally recently in California, where over 100,000 people showed up.  Kamala has struggled with all live performances, including Bret Baier on Fox News.  The more she spoke, the worse she did, and the public could see how phony she was.  This has left the door open for Trump to dominate in public appearances with no real competition for the public’s need for leadership. The choice couldn’t have been more stark.  So Trump has done the boldest thing possible and gone to places where he was at risk of being rejected, and Madison Square Gardens in downtown Manhattan is one of those statement rallies.  For Trump to fill the arena when Kamala Harris couldn’t even come close is more than just spiking the football after a tough election.  It’s a declaration of winning this election in a “too big to rig” fashion because nobody will believe it if Kamala Harris suddenly wins the election when she couldn’t even show up in a friendly setting to do the Al Smith Dinner. 

With Trump booking Madison Square Gardens, he is filling a venue that psychologically has deep roots in the American mind as one of the largest in the world, and as they used to say about New York, if you can make it there, you can make it anywhere.  And this assumption that New York is off limits to any Republican is being challenged by Trump.  Should things be the way many fear and Kamala Harris did win the presidency with serious election fraud, people will never believe it.  With Trump filling Madison Square Gardens for a rally to hear him speak, when Kamala couldn’t fill a kid’s pool, is a statement to make this election all about too big to rig.  By Trump filling that massive building on the most significant stage in the world, he is essentially showing that he has done all he can do and more to present an opportunity for authentic leadership to the American people.  And they are voting by attending his rallies.  Meanwhile, the real trouble lurking in the background has been exposed, and traditionally, to cover their menace, they have relied on control over the media and public sentiment to hide their ruse.  And under tremendous pressure, they have not been able to answer because Trump has been so good.  Going into the stretch of the election season, Kamala and her people couldn’t answer the call because of the way they have been selling communism to people for decades.  And now it was all coming down around them right in the heart of Democrats’ politics at its core, New York City, first with the Al Smith Dinner, then Trump speaking at Madison Square Gardens.  That the same people who swapped out Joe Biden and put in Kamala Harris think they have that much control over the American people tells you everything you need to know.

Trump, going to New York in the last weeks of the election, says he is confident in the battleground states, especially Pennsylvania and Georgia.  Interestingly, Florida and Ohio aren’t even toss-up states anymore, and Democrats aren’t even trying to maintain the illusion.  This is a stark difference now than it was in prior elections.  If it used to be hard for Republicans to win any election, what Trump has done is flip the script entirely on Democrats, and now the uphill battle is ultimately on their shoulders.  As it looks now, Trump is set to have a blowout win over Kamala Harris and the Democrat Party in general.  They have run out of runway.  Nobody even believes that Joe Biden won his seat.  The Democrat Party has only confirmed the suspicions by the way they have treated him once he showed that he wasn’t going to be able to beat Trump and replaced him with Kamala.  Then, under tremendous pressure at the Al Smith Dinner, knowing they were struggling to sell their message in an honest election, they turned to Saturday Night Live to attempt to sell Kamala to the public.  And it wasn’t working.   So Trump booked Madison Square Gardens to make the election too big to rig.  No matter what happens with digital voting machines and drop boxes, nobody in the aftermath can steal this election.  That doesn’t mean they won’t try.  And if they did present the world with Kamala Harris the way they removed Joe Biden without any votes and tried to give America that mess, clearly Trump has been the president over the last four years, and he was being elected by the people once again.  And that’s why booking Madison Square Gardens was so important.  Suppose they try to give us Kamala Harris on election day. In that case, nobody will believe she won, and a war will be more than merited against forces of tyranny that have seeped into our system of government that can’t be dealt with any other way than by force.  Because we tried peaceful elections, and the Democrats didn’t respect it.

The ‘Soylent Green’ Effect: Stepping away from the cannibal medical industry of socialized medicine

Cannibals are common in our past, and present.

My daughter and I were sitting in the backyard of her Liberty Township home and looking at the homes that were all around her property. Most were valued at a million dollars each, and we wondered how all those people could afford those homes.  What jobs could they possibly be doing?  And sadly, the answer is that they mostly all work in the medical industry to some degree.  Many of them are in the sales business, whether selling syringes that cost .35 cents to make to a hospital for $200 or X-ray machines and other medical equipment with massively inflated costs.  The markup in the entire medical profession is extraordinarily high, and nobody cares or does anything about it because the cost of all that waste is covered by health insurance.  So, the two industries feed off each other horrendously inefficiently, making everything cost a fortune.  Most of the Liberty Township, Ohio population currently living in those big homes have incomes that can even think about living in those expensive homes because they work in the medical industry or in insurance, making all that funding possible.  There is no way that kids just getting out of college can afford one of those homes, so what is going to happen next to a country that is already struggling with debt, held down by it in grotesque ways?  Well, that’s when I talked about the miracle of the recent SpaceX flight and the upcoming election win of Trump back into the White House, where many of these medical problems will be the subject of his next administration.  And the Kamala Harris people have been trying to use the health insurance issue as a way to scare people away from Trump because, as they say, the President doesn’t have a plan.  Well, the fix to the medical industry is more capitalism, not this socialized medical model we have today that only exists so that people can profit from the prolonged death of people.  I call it the Soylent Green model if people remember that famous movie with Charlton Heston. 

Soylent Green was a dystopian thriller from 1973 where old people were essentially put in a room upon their death and shown all kinds of heavenly images while they died off to give them comfort.  But the moment they died, their bodies were carted off to be chopped up into pieces and processed into food for society to eat.  That is essentially what our current medical industry is; it’s just an extension of the kind of human sacrifice that is common in all leftist cultures, particularly in the Near East with the ancient Canaanites.  The Aztecs, the Cahokians, and the Maya were killing people everywhere worldwide as part of their cultural belief system.  The consumption of human life is to sustain the up-and-coming lives, whether it be in the belief that gods would make it rain for that society or that the old need to be killed off for the young to eat.  The belief system is as old as time, and we have options as a human race with science as a tool only now.  Lots of options.  Using those same biblical references where God wanted the Israelites to kill off the people of the land of Canaan, it was because they were so wicked that Yahweh was disgusted with them.  And we are faced with the same moral dilemma today.  And many of those biblical characters lived for over 100 years.  In some cases, they lived for nearly a thousand. 

Notice how we haven’t talked about STEM cells in a while.  During the 90s, after Jurassic Park came out, people were always talking about cloning and rebuilding human tissue with stem cells.  The sad truth is that we are dealing with a medical industry that has turned to socialized science to produce a Soylent Green effect, and they don’t want to heal people, they want to feed off them.  They want to prolong their deaths so they can profit off their demise as just a modern form of human sacrifice.  Nobody needs to get sick and die the way we currently do.  But even down to the mortuaries, if we apply the same kind of science to the health of our society, a lot of the people who make fortunes off the death of the elderly will suddenly be out of a job.  We have an economy of death that is built on the notion of human sacrifice, and we don’t have to.  Suppose we applied the exact science that allowed SpaceX to land that excellent Super Heavy Booster on October 13th, 2024. In that case, we can also stop aging and heal people back to their prime selves using technology that allows cells to repair a person instead of gradually depleting them.  And the good news is that with a Trump victory, that is the answer to the health insurance problem.  Why would we continue to throw money at a health insurance industry that charges $200 for a little plastic syringe?  When Kamala Harris says she has a plan to help people pay for their medical costs with socialized Obamacare or Medicaid expansion, what is needed is a medical industry with a lot more capitalism in it and the goal of curing cancer and all aging diseases.  Not to sustain them long enough to live a ten-year life of gradually more medical bills paid for by insurance so that younger people can live in million-dollar homes for a while before they go through the same process.  What our current medical industry is cannibalism and just as stupid as every ancient culture that practiced it, which is the foundation of all liberal thought. 

Here’s the other math problem, and Elon Musk knows this all too well.  At this point, for the big picture, we need as many human beings to live as long of lives as we can get them to, and that is not part of the current health insurance discussion.  There is a belief in that same cannibal liberalism that we need to save the earth from those pesky humans, which is part of a mass killing plan that comes up with Big Pharma and the beliefs of The World Economic Forum.  People need to go away so the earth can live; that’s what people like Bill Gates believe these days.  But what we need is the opposite.  We need more people to live longer to colonize space and survive as a species.  The exact needs were present when the Bible was written by people who needed to survive long enough to carry intelligence to the future.  We are in the same situation now.  We are all there are for now because of low birth rates and the fact that it would take a century to produce the number of people needed for this space fairing enterprise.  And we all need to survive for a lot longer lifespans.  So when Trump is asked what his plan is for health care and he says he will plan to bring more competition to the industry, which a lot of short-term thinkers are terrified of because it will destroy the $200 syringe business, the truth is that we have to entirely scrap the old system and embrace a medical approach that heals people and keeps them working longer, having children longer and living as long as they can to transfer their lifetime achievements to future generations more effectively, directly.  The economy will have to change toward invention and preservation instead of decaying human flesh and profiting off the demise.  But first, we have to have courage, elect Trump, and change our entire society away from the Soylent Green model and toward proper restoration and preservation for thousands of years into the future.

What We Learned From the ILA Strike: We need more automation and robots to do the work that lazy people won’t do

Most things that are wrong in our modern economy is the fault of communism; it’s the process of thinking that comes from the ridiculously stupid philosophy of Karl Marx.  And that’s precisely what the International Longshoremen’s Association was during a recent strike, raw communism.  When it comes to these unions, notice they always start with “international.”  These are not American efforts rooted in capitalism.  They are globalist enterprises.  A few weeks ago, the dockworkers at ports of entry for shipping all along the east coast down into the Gulf along Texas walked off the job, which essentially crippled American infrastructure and it was all over pay.  This forced the shipping companies to throw a lot of money at those losers to prevent a complete halt of our economy, which amounted to an average of 4 dollars per hour for each six-year contract with an opportunity to raise wages by 62% over the life of the contract, which previously had an upward pay scale of $39 per hour or 81K per year.  And that is on straight time.  In truth, many of these people are making 300K per year once they had the overtime before this strike, so these dock workers are getting rich off an extortion racket that is essential to the American infrastructure and economy.  Their malicious timing was to perform this strike while a weak president, Joe Biden, was sleeping on the beach before Trump’s next term. They took advantage of the situation while they could and put everyone at risk with a hostile attack on our supply chain. It was reprehensible on a good day and detrimental in their intent and malice.  Fortunately, people learned pretty quickly what the leaders of the strike were up to; they were living in mansions and were not hurting for money for a job that wasn’t that skilled.  In the vacuum of a communist bubble, they had thought themselves something better than what they were, and they took advantage of America for their benefit, and it’s disgusting. 

I don’t like union workers of any kind on a good day.  I think they are worthless slugs rooted in Marxist ideology and have no place in American society.  I know these days, many union workers are breaking away from their leadership and voting for Trump for president, which makes us all friendly under a big tent of politics these days.  But it doesn’t change what they are.  Trump has successfully dealt with unions as a builder, and if you have a good personality, you can deal with reasonable people. Most of the time, union workers think they are doing right.  They don’t think of themselves as communists or detriments to society.  However, as a mob of insurgents who threatened to take away the need for labor if they didn’t collectively get what they wanted, everything they were was born on the pages of Karl Marx.  I think it should be illegal and punishable with years in jail to walk off a job that is critical to American economic infrastructure.  If I didn’t know the teaching profession was so worthless, I’d associate that field with the same sentiment.  But teacher unions have made themselves worthless with their brand of Democrat politics baked into everything they do, which is useless to a conservative family with children attending a school.  From top to bottom, there is no place for communism in our labor force, and the ILA didn’t care.  They wanted to take advantage of desperate people to extract even more money from the process while political disorder was a raging fire.  And what they did will cost us a lot more money in terms of shipping costs.

I don’t respect these ILA workers or most union jobs.  I have seen firsthand how unions destroy a company, and I have been in many fist fights in parking lots myself for breaking strikes in what they call a SCAB.  I, for the fun of it, made a living breaking strikes, one at a company in Cincinnati called Cincinnati Milacron, which is no longer there because of radicalized unions, and a company that built conveyor belts in the 90s for Amazon, well before anybody knew what Amazon was.  I was never one to join with group behavior, and when I disagreed with the behavior, the union stewards wanted to fight, which they regretted.  Many people from my past are ashamed of what they did and what I did to them, just to put it nicely.  I could tell stories about some of these antics that sometimes got bloody for quite a long time.  So, my hatred for these labor unions runs very deep.  To say I hate them isn’t a strong enough word.  But I do have much experience as a blue-collar worker, and I’ve watched the crane operations at the shipping docks who just went on strike, and I can say that it’s an easy job.  Certainly not worth 300K per year.  I’ve done lots of comparable work with cranes and jigs with very expensive hardware, and while it takes some skill to operate, it’s not worth the kind of money these unions extract for it.  They are only paid so much because companies fear through radicalism that all the workers will collectively leave their jobs and cause a work stoppage.  Even though Trump has successfully dealt with unions, everyone who has dealt with them can’t hide the fact that collective bargaining agreements harm enterprises by making them too expensive or taking too much time to do the task.  And very little good comes from a unionized workforce. 

One of those stories I could tell involved three union stewards who thought they were tough guys and wanted to fight me in an empty parking lot near our plant at 3 PM when the first shift ended.  I guess they didn’t think I’d show up, and let me say politely, they didn’t win.  The whole plant showed up to watch the fight, which was very embarrassing for the union stewards.  And that particular plant, once management figured out that the union couldn’t be dealt with, shut down within six months.  I knew it then, and I know it especially now: unions had no place in America, and they were dying.  And that is certainly true today.  Already, robots could do a much better job than many of the crane operators working these docks, and they never call off work or get sick.  Labor in an economy is always needed, but that labor doesn’t need to be a human.  It needs to be intelligent, and with A.I. these days, they are far more intelligent than these dock worker slugs.  I’ve known them from personal experience, and believe me, if you pay them more than $10 an hour, you are paying them too much.  Unions have made themselves worthless, which is the case with the ILA strike.  It only lasted a few days, but it shouldn’t have happened at all.  I would encourage all those companies involved in shipping to invest in robots for their future work.  And don’t waste your time on these slugs that affect our economy.  There is no reason these days to overpay for labor and to throw money at these people.  The ILA strike broke once people realized how much money these employees made.  America was not sympathetic.  They just wanted their stuff shipped to them to arrive.  Globalism has given these international unions leverage through a monopoly status.  And it’s time we change that, for good, with automation and robotics.
