It’s important for everyone to know that corporate inversions are the direct result of policies and laws created by open border advocates for the primary objective of redistributing the wealth of America around the world to socialist and communist countries. For instance, many don’t know it, but the Mexican Revolution at the turn of the last century was a Marxist inspired event, just as all of Central America, Cuba and South America were challenged with. Those are not capitalist countries. All of Africa has struggled between communism and socialism as well as Europe. Russia was communist—now it just wears the face of a free market economy—but is still run by a former KGB agent who strives to take Russia back to the “good ol’ days. Scandinavia is openly Bernie Sanders socialist. China is communist, Vietnam is communist. North Korea is communist. India is a hybrid socialist country and Australia is experimentally socialist. That leaves really the United States to be the only somewhat capitalist country on earth and we all know in economics that socialist and communist countries are not job producing environments. So they needed jobs in those places—to be fair, and only the United States had them. The United Nations put pressure on law makers to organize trade deals that inspired corporate inversions through American tax codes to drive jobs created under a capitalist system to poor regions distraught by Marxist philosophies. It was the ultimate wealth redistribution plan.
Obviously, if America is going to survive, it has to stop that practice. When Trump uses the Carrier air conditioning company moving from Indiana to Mexico as an example to take advantage of corporate inversion business tactics, the key to solving the problem is to make it not so economically feasible for those companies to leave. Their labor costs are already too high because of the socialist oriented labor unions—also by design—to drive up costs in America making employers want to seek places like India and China to help their bottom line. But the big villain is the tax structure where corporations are demonized through the tax code to pay extraordinary amounts which inspires them to places like Mexico just to survive. That is a progressive strategy manipulated by behind the scenes radicals like George Soros to attack the American economy by looting the wealth of capitalism and redistributing it to the socialist progressives of Mexico.
The proper thing to do is to view such behavior as a military attack against American sovereignty. Immediately whoever the next president is needs to change the corporate inversion laws to make the practice far less attractive to companies. The next president needs to find a way to make American companies want to stay in the United States. So far, only Donald Trump has shown any willingness to attack this issue with swift action. That’s why it’s laughable that people would actually attack him as not being conservative. You have to understand what we are fighting. Corporate inversions are anti-capitalist—they are massive wealth redistribution schemes created by Marxist philosophy. Jobs created in the United States are inspired to move with their feet for short run gains only to put jobs in the pockets of socialist countries unable to create them on their own—because of their terrible social philosophy.
Trump offers something that only he could perform, an opportunity in the first year of his presidency to reverse the corporate inversion imposition that we are currently experiencing by convincing congress to change the laws on the books and to deal directly with manufactures like Carrier to stay in Indiana instead of moving to Mexico. Remember that giant sucking sound that Ross Perot was talking about in 1992? Well, this is it, and somebody needs to plug the hole. Only Trump shows the ambition, business smarts, and willingness to do the hard work of changing the corporate inversion culture.
So what happens to the rest of the world? Surely, the moment that America puts a stop to corporate inversions the United Nations will cry foul like a forward in soccer falls to the ground the moment a defense player breathes on them. Well, they will suffer, and if they stick with socialism and communism, they will rot away. America could take the lead to teaching them capitalism—for their own survival. Japan has learned well from America, and Hong Kong is still doing pretty well in spite of its communist mother country. The UAE is pro capitalist for the most part. There are plenty of examples to learn from—and the countries of the world need to pay attention. But they do not have a right to operate as collectivist based Marxist economies and use our weak government bureaucrats to steal America jobs because they are incompetent idiots. They need to learn what works and adopt that; otherwise they won’t be able to compete. That is the way it’s going to have to be.
It’s not compassionate to destroy yourself so that the deliberately weak and malpracticed can continue to operate as parasites. It is not justice for jobs to be created here in America—developed and nurtured along by a customer base, then to lose those assets to deficient countries who get gold mines dropped in their laps without doing the work of creating it. It’s no different from welfare recipients getting a check from government which was stolen through taxation from wealthy, hard-working people—someone else did the work, and someone else benefited because government served as the mediating thief between the two parties. Donald Trump’s position on this could not be more conservative, and there is no other candidate who will dare move against the George Soros type of American insurgents financing the open border movement for the very reason of spreading socialism around the world. That is one of the premier reasons that I’m supporting Trump, and the swiftest action possible the moment he’s elected. Because time is running out. When companies like Carrier are heading into Mexico the clock is about to run out. This is not something to take lightly. I talk to a lot of people, especially in business, and there are many who offer their two cents on any given topic, but their value isn’t worth a penny. Because they are already on their way to Mexico in their minds, and the world of socialist governments who offer short term gains for lazy, complicit losers. Yes the booze is cheap in Puerto Vallarta, and the women are easy—because they have nothing else to run to. For a corporate CEO looking for a tax shelter and cheap labor who spent the first half of their life busting their ass to work up the ladder and is on their second marriage—Mexico looks attractive. But it’s not America, and it never will be.
I have never seen such an act of stupidity and neglect than what the FBI performed by allowing the police to turn over Syed Farook’s apartment that she shared with her converted terrorist husband to the media and allow the press to swarm through the crime scene less than 48 hours old. Here was a major terrorist incident that had taken place on American soil and the FBI and White House were desperate to minimize the reach and public outcry by denouncing that it was even an act of terror though it’s obvious to everyone from the outset that was the case. They were reluctant because the couple was Islamic and the White House toyed with the idea of containing that fact from the story early on. So the FBI allowed for the press to rummage through the crime scene looking through personal effects of the couple in an attempt to humanize them into some sort of normalcy. In the act the media destroyed countless amounts of evidence in the form of fingerprints and DNA samples which should have been extracted from the site for subsequent months—not hours. The whole incident was a shell game that the FBI was playing under White House direction and they were all caught from the outset.
Now, two months later the negligent FBI started issuing court orders against an American company, Apple—that has a net worth of what most of the countries around the world do—to force them to “cooperate with the FBI investigation” citing that the tech company has some sort of patriotic duty to let FBI agents get into their encryption of that Syed Farook iPhone. Give me a break. The crazy lunatic Islamic radical was talking to ISIS recruits on Facebook—where was the FBI in stopping that action before it happened? And why did they try to cover it up when the terrorist act happened? And then they drug their feet before announcing that it was a terrorist incident. Then two months after the fact—after they allowed the press to completely destroy evidence two days after the initial attack—all of sudden Apple has some patriotic duty to the knuckle-dragging FBI agents who screwed up the case from the outset.
I actually know a few FBI guys. Sure they get into an occasional shoot-out, but who hasn’t these days. That doesn’t impress me. Let me just say this—I wouldn’t want those guys to have encryption decoding ability to anything. They do a decent job most of the time, but like anybody who is employed, particularly in the federal government, they are prone to immoral acts of embarrassments and they often abuse their power. Let’s just say that. Apple doesn’t owe those people in the FBI anything. The FBI has all the information they need to pursue the terrorist sources in the Syed Farook case. They know who said what to whom, and who sold what and when right now. They are using the Apple case as a way to gain access to encrypted products in the future under court order, and they are using the legal process to stall their own investigation because they don’t really want the results to come out—at least until Obama is out of the White House and they can dump the news on the Friday night cycle perhaps the night before the NFL starts again, or some other cultural event that otherwise occupies the attention of the American masses. If they wanted to uncover the terrorist network behind the San Bernardino terrorist attack—those accomplices would already be prosecuted and in jail—Apple has nothing to do with it.
I am deeply insulted by the comments of the FBI and the White House. The assumption in their statements is that we are all stupid. I would agree with Donald Trump and urge Apple to cooperate with the FBI if I thought we could trust them—but we can’t. They have shown an inclination to mislead and bungle investigations either on purpose, or by incompetence. Either way, they are a risk, and no competent company should be compelled by law to squander their product for the sake of fools who are highly likely to make mistakes with it. Apple is trying to establish an Apple Pay system that is completely predicated off the public’s ability to trust the security of their products—so the FBI compelling Apple to provide a backdoor to a terrorist’s iPhone won’t help the company build that confidence. This whole “greater good” argument that the government is making is horse shit. What was good for the most of America was for the White House and FBI from the outset of the San Bernardino terrorist attacks to admit what they knew and when they knew it. Instead, they let the media come in under the guise of curiosity and destroy very valuable evidence—and then lecture us all on the merits of patriotism. Give me a break!
Where there is smoke there is often fire and there is a lot of smoke regarding the FBI handling of the terrorist incident at San Bernardino. They screwed up the case terribly—to my eyes on purpose—because I honestly don’t believe people are that stupid. If they are—then we can’t trust them with anything—certainly not the encryption of a single iPhone. The FBI is manipulating the situation obviously. The question left for the rest of us to ask is…………………………why?
I was on a long oversea flight when I noticed the 2015 movie The Walk was one of the few listings that actually looked interesting to me. I had avoided it in theaters because honestly, I get tired of all the sad stories about the Twin Towers destroyed in New York in 2001. The topic started to feel like a perpetual funeral a long time ago—and I don’t like funerals. I was a kid when Philippe Petit performed a high wire act by walking across the two skyline monstrosities breaking the law, yet winning the hearts of the world—so I vaguely remembered the incident. Being stuck on a plane for 13 hours and having finished a book I was reading, I thought I’d give it a chance. What I discovered on the Robert Zemeckis directed film was a love letter to what the World Trade Center towers represented before that terrible day on 9/11—and it gave me new respect for the anger that New Yorkers—like Donald Trump—still feel when talking about them. Everyone promised not to forget when the towers were destroyed by radical Islamic terrorists on that fateful September day in 2001—but by the time The Walk had finished playing on the plane long over the Pacific Ocean coming down along the coast of Russia, I realized that Zemeckis had captured perfectly the critical issues on why legal immigration to the United States was part of the American experience and had properly identified without saying it why the terrorists had attacked those particular towers—because of what they represented to the rest of the world. I found that The Walk was a movie that every American should see at least once because even thought Petit was a Frenchman, what he did and why he did it perfectly embodied why America is a special place and continues to be. At the heart of the movie was a defined embodiment of the current political turbulence and a desire to recapture America’s spirit before 9/11 ever happened. It was marvelous.
Philippe Petit (French pronunciation: [filip pəti]; born 13 August 1949) is a Frenchhigh-wire artist who gained fame for his high-wire walk between the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, on the morning of August 7, 1974.[1] For his unauthorized feat (which he referred to as “le coup”[2]) 1,350 feet (400 metres) above the ground, he rigged a 450-pound (200-kilogram) cable and used a custom-made 26-foot (8-meter) long, 55-pound (25-kilogram) balancing pole. He performed for 45 minutes, making eight passes along the wire. The next week, he celebrated his 25th birthday. All charges were dismissed in exchange for his doing a performance in Central Park for children.
Since then, Petit has lived in New York, where he has been artist-in-residence at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, also a location of other aerial performances. He has done wire walking as part of official celebrations in New York, across the United States, and in France and other countries, as well as teaching workshops on the art. In 2008, Man on Wire, a documentary directed by James Marsh about Petit’s walk between the towers, won numerous awards. He was also the subject of a children’s book and an animated adaptation of it, released in 2005. The Walk, a movie based on Petit’s walk, was released in September 2015, starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Petit and directed by Robert Zemeckis.
I can’t promise by the time that you’ve read this article dear reader that the below film, Man on Wire will still be playing on YouTube. If it’s not, you should find it and watch it. If it is still up below, then take a few hours and watch it now. I had not seen the film prior to the Zemeckis movie but instantly sought it out wanting to confirm that what I had seen in The Walk was real—which it was. It is an inspiring documentary that serves as a fine complement to the 2015 feature film. As spectacular as that event was in 1974 walking across the massive precipice of the World Trade Center from such dizzying heights, it was quite a relief to discover that the story was true and the real passion of Philippe Petit was not overstated. The actual guy is just as passionate and authentic as the 2015 movie on him. Petit was a modern immigrant who came to America because of the opportunities it provided him, and he stayed and never left. Even though what he did was in definite violation of the law, New York embraced him because unlike other places in the world, such efforts often go with a reward. America has always been a place where the law takes a back seat to innovation. Of course Philippe Petit was arrested for his antics and if he had not been successful, things could have been very bad for him and the World Trade Center building complex that had not yet been opened to the public. But as it was, Petit’s actions were authentic—driven from a pure heart to live by the spontaneity of his troubadour tendencies and the American continent recognized that effort with foundations of belief rooted in common experience. Most people in America yearn to live as Petit did—not everyone does—but the purpose of art is to evoke such emotions and in this case it properly put its finger on the root of American Exceptionalism. Petit is such a fine, raw example of American Exceptionalism. It’s not something people are born with. It’s a philosophy that embraces those who have no place else to display their genius—and that is what makes America great. It’s not a born trait, it’s something you take for yourself—and America along with its entire people—thus benefits.
Petit saw something that at the time could have only been created by American capitalism—the World Trade Center and he took on impossible odds to perform his task. Part of the difficulty is what shaped the event as being so extraordinary. If it had been easy it would not have been so amazing. I can say that I understand Petit’s efforts. I have experienced similar things—even down to the mysterious stranger who showed up on the roof at dawn and looked him wordlessly to acknowledge his existence then disappeared just as inexplicably. Who was that guy? Nobody knows but he never tipped off the law prior to Petit taking to his feat. I have a saying that I often have told my children that the treasures of life are not found along paved roads lined with signs saying stay off the grass. If you really want to find the treasures of life, sometimes you have to step off that paved road and look in the high grass and weeds. Rules and regulations are designed to keep us all on the road so that things can be hidden from us—so another class of insurgent aristocrats can rule over mankind. That is why in France, Petit wasn’t so celebrated, because they loved their rules and regulations. They may push the limit in different social ways, but the intellectual ways that Americans do are unique to the continent of North America as established by the Revolution of 1776. Breaking the law is sometimes a good thing in America—so long as you win.
That message is distinctly different everywhere else in the world. Rules matter and the people who make the rules must be revered as gods on earth. In America that notion is laughed at—and that is why Philippe Petit was so embraced by New York after his amazing feat. He had given meaning to those two steel towers and enemies of America—both foreign and domestic wanted to put an end to that meaning. So they attacked them for what they represented to all the Petits of the world who looked to America with hope. The attack on the World Trade Center on 9/11 2001 was not just a shot at American capitalism, but to those who looked at them in pictures and dreamed similar dreams of freedom, anarchy, and spontaneous authenticity. It wasn’t the buildings themselves they wanted to destroy so much as it was the freedoms they represented. If Petit had not launched them with bold insurrection to the rules of humanity—they wouldn’t have had the same meaning. For them to take their place in history properly—Petit needed to have his walk across them.
I was deeply touched by The Walk. It touched on something that I believe in with extraordinary passion. I can relate to Philippe Petit and I have to thank Robert Zemeckis for telling such an amazingly simple story with all the complexity of its troubadour origins—which is actually what gave birth to America in the first place from the first daring Europeans who put a zest for life ahead of the orthodox against the church and state. Even though many had forgotten consciously what the World Trade Center had come to mean to a new generation, because of The Walk, the spirit of that endeavor has been captured and had defined them properly—and it is that spirit the terrorists attacked.
Conspiracies abound as to who was responsible for the destruction of the World Trade Center. Donald Trump as a New Yorker and a builder of large buildings obviously is still very angry about their downfall—likely for the reasons I just articulated—even though it’s hard to put a finger on it. The world needs more Philippe Petits and when those towers went down it wasn’t just lives lost that made everyone so sad. It was the good memories of what they meant to the New York skyline and how they were launched to the public in such a grandiose way. All that was erased forever and what was left was not just ruins, but an intentional jab at all the potential Philippe Petits of the world contemplating the fulfillment of their dreams. The message from those treacherous insurgents was—yield your individuality to the deities and laws of the world. Do not follow your individual passions as Philippe Petit did. The direction we moved to as a country after 9/11 did exactly what the terrorists wanted. Try telling a TSA agent you intend to walk across some building in America. They’d panic and put the entire airport on lockdown just for saying it. We gave up our free loving troubadour spirit to embrace the safety that only rules can provide to evoke upon us to stay on the paved roads. CLICK HERE TO LEARN ABOUT THE TROUBADOURS. That was the greatest crime of all. For me the most beautiful scene in The Walk was when Petit was going through immigration with all his equipment and he honestly told the border agent what he planned to do. It was so extraordinary that the man waved him through not with suspicion but almost with a dare to see if the kid would actually do it attitude. That is America, and that is what we need to get back.
Maybe if Donald Trump is elected president he’ll nominate Philippe Petit as a VP—because he’s still alive. I can’t think of anybody who is more American than that Frenchman. That is a guy I understand!
Not only with Donald Trump as President of the United States do we get a guy who will end common core, bust through EPA regulations which prevent new construction in America, literally take the lid off the economy, close off the open border insurgency that is currently taking place, be pro military around the world, take a stand against drugs, rearrange the trade imbalances created through devalued currencies globally, expand the second amendment, and stop the process of corporate inversions by restructuring the tax code to lower the taxes which inspire valuable companies to flee to less top-heavy cost countries—by design, but we get a guy who will actually take on serious challenges like the one shown about 20 minutes into the following Alex Jones video.
Obviously, anybody with a brain knows that there are shadow governments running global politics and they work through lobbyists in Washington D.C. to advance the strategies decided behind very closed doors throughout the European theater. If America wants to survive into next century, that influence has to stop, but unfortunately most political candidates in American politics need money to get elected, and they can’t get that money unless they work with these shadow governments. What is very interesting about Donald Trump is that even as a front-runner he has been willing to do interviews with Alex Jones who has a reputation as a conspiracy theorist. Surely not everything is as Alex proposes, but where there is smoke, there is fire, and Alex points to a lot of smoke. Trump, being a mover and shaker in very high places and a political donor himself knows all the characters involved and he knows what the real fight is, and he is obviously a fan of Alex Jones. This leads to a lot of very productive possibilities under a Trump presidency regarding the influence that shadow governments have on our political process. I’d like to see someone put an end to the practice, and Trump is poised to be that person who can finally do so. Better yet, he has shown that he’s actually willing to take on that shadow government for the sake of American sovereignty—and that is probably the best reason to vote for him.
Under a Trump presidency, I think we will find cures for cancer, leaps in technological advancement and entirely new economies forming around invention. Saudi Arabia is holding down the world with OPEC and secret agreements that keep the Middle East a major player in world affairs because of dirty energy. As I’ve said before Thorum is a much better energy alternative and the only thing holding that back is essentially government regulation—which someone like Donald Trump could put an end to. The way to shut down Saudi Arabia is to deregulate energy and lower the value of their oil through competition. All these good things would happen because of Trump’s free market capitalism approach. It would be better than the 80s were, it would be something America has never experienced before. But better yet, it would truly end some of the terrorism that Saudi Arabia sponsors against the United States. After all, they can’t bring much harm if they don’t have the money to fund illicit activities against us. The best way to destroy the shadow governments of Europe is to defund them—to take the money they use against us out of their pockets and put that wealth back to where they looted it from—American GDP.
Most of the limits we face early in this 21st century are entirely artificial. Those limits need to be removed by the next President of the United States. Watch all the videos included above for support information.
If Donald Trump needs any help fulfilling his promise to build a wall along the U.S-Mexico border, he’ll find a volunteer in Ohio.
Jim Spurlino, owner of Middletown, Ohio’s Spurlino Materials and a candidate for Ohio’s 8th Congressional District, offered to send his company’s “mobile concrete plants” to the border to build a barricade that prevents immigrants from coming across illegally.
“The nation needs a concrete-strong border to protect patriotic Americans from foreign terrorists and illegal job-snatchers,” Spurlino said in a statement Monday.
I thought that was great, but then out of nowhere Spurlino released this information:
“These professional politicians must fear me,” Spurlino said. “I’m not perfect, but I’ll be honest with the voters.”
Spurlino, the owner of Spurlino Materials in Middletown, did not elaborate on what details could have ruined his reputation. He did say it stemmed from the end of a previous marriage.
Spurlino has been divorced twice, according to court records. His most recent divorce came in 2013.
“I would hope that this campaign and my opponents would stick to the issues,” he said. “That’s what I know the voters want to hear about.”
Spurlino called the tactics “cloak and dagger crazy stuff,” before alleging one of his opponents also has stalked his 16-year-old daughter on social media.
“I really can’t believe that kind of stuff happens,” he said.
Spurlino says in his campaign website he and his current wife have raised eight children together.
Neither Spurlino nor anyone on his campaign staff was immediately available for comment.
Talk about mixed messages. On one hand Spurlino appeared to be a Trump-like candidate, who was ready to fight, but then he was a victim of blackmail playing a sympathy card. It seemed like two different people who is a huge alarm to me. I was relieved in a way to find that the situation wasn’t some kind of embarrassing sexual indiscretion because that is a major no, no for me. If a man can’t keep his house in order at home, they won’t be worth anything as a public candidate. Child support can be a serious issue as well, but often that kind of thing can be screwed up by government accounting, which happens more than people might think. I have a big problem with our social trend toward the courts mediating in family affairs. I mean just recently a Butler County judge favored a swingers club in West Chester ruling against the trustees—so the courts can be just as screwed up as anybody. The best way to avoid it is to not get divorced. Spurlino has been married three times and that is a problem, but so has Trump—who I do support. So if I believe in the candidate, I can overlook some things. But once you let the government-run your family and divide up finances, it’s over, they rule over your family and its affairs and I can see how someone could end up in trouble with a government-run child support agency controlled by incompetent employees like those found at the BMV.
I spoke to Jim’s campaign manager for a while and we talked about a lot of things, including who he thinks sabotaged Spurlino with the alleged blackmail and I can believe it. If Spurlino brands himself as a Trump-type candidate strong on immigration, there are a lot of establishment types in Butler County who would have a big problem with him. I can see them trying to destroy a candidate who made big news for a local race in USA Today. I remember when I made it into a Forbes article over a political issue and saw how the other side reacted with an eye bleeding vengeance filled with panic—there was never a more ruthless attempt to destroy a person just for being a good person. If Spurlino could evoke that kind of anger against the establishment, he’d do a good service to conservatism. But he can’t do that if he puts out a couple of campaign videos trying to apologize for something to get out ahead of a story that appears not to be a very big deal—it’s a family issue that looks like it’s been resolved within the family. The courts might be in a fuss, but that is likely because they are idiots. By trying to deal with the issue in a clandestine fashion it provoked a liberal Dayton Daily News reporter to do a lot of digging to find out what the big secret was—which turned out to be far less scandalous than it might have otherwise been.
Just a bit of advice and this goes for anybody. If someone slips an envelope under your door trying to hang you for something—well the best thing is to be as squeaky clean as possible so you never have to worry about such a thing. But if it does happen, attack. Attack, attack, and attack until the person who did it to you is having nightmares about you. Never let up and drive them into the ground so that they can never get up. That is my policy and a lot of people have had to learn the hard way. They read here every day hoping that somehow some way that I’ll stumble and fall so they can peek their heads above the ground in some way once again. And I’d say to Spurlino, if you are a tough guy, then be one. Don’t play politics with losers and let your aggression fly loose. If you have what it takes to work in Trump’s wake, then be bold and hit hard. If you don’t get elected this time, so what. Just don’t play it safe. We have enough people who have been elected to the 8th District who were just pacifists looking for a stable job. We need fighters in modern politics and the best test of that is in how you deal with people who try to challenge you on the campaign trail. If someone did you wrong—destroy them. Don’t complain about it, just take care of it.
Look how relieved John Kasich, governor of Ohio, golfer with president Obama, loser to the labor unions, and Obamacare supporter through Medicaid expansion was when his one fan wanted a hug in front of people.
I’m not surprised. Chuck and the gang at WLW picked Lisa Wells once Darryl Parks was out-of-the-way. Looks like they made a pretty bad decision.
She was a drug user according to her arrest records and a Lakota levy supporter–which is kind of the same thing. She was WLW’s way of becoming more “inclusive” to a new demographic that hasn’t typically listened to talk radio. Why do these things keep happening to WLW?
Southern Ohio, specifically Butler County isn’t known for its wildlife—but there are enough RINOs migrating around that it rivals only the Serengeti of Africa. This is largely due to the State Central Committee seat that the socialite Patti Alderson holds which keeps those RINOs in seats they otherwise wouldn’t be able to hold. Ann Becker is running against Patti Alderson to attempt to set things right in Butler County and if you listen to the broadcast Ann did with Brian Thomas on 55 KRC below, you will begin to understand how Patti has loaded Butler County full of so many RINOs and learn what you can do about it. What’s even stranger, given the sometimes intense anger that the Liberty Movement is uttering these days toward the establishment commitment toward RINOs (Republican In Name Only—people like Don DIXON) is that Patti listed them on her promotional website as a badge of honor like her own zoo listing. That’s how out of touch she is. Now a few names on her list, also shown below, are decent people—like Margy and T.C. Rogers. Roger Reynolds most of the time is like a tennis ball being knocked over a net from Liberty to establishment—so he’s sort of on the fence—but most of the rest are clearly RINOs. Not that they are bad people, but they are definitely establishment anchors who lean far too left for the current Liberty tide that is emerging. To prove it, just click on the hotlinks below, and you will see the evidence. Here is the information that Patti listed on her website promoting her ability to maintain the status quo by continuing to feed the RINOs of Butler County.https://t.co/3jNX1vRG7N
“Patti Alderson is a blessing to our Community. I do not know where Butler County would be without her commitment and leadership.”
— Margy Conditt, State Representative
“During her time on the State Central Committee, Patti Alderson worked with conservatives across Ohio to build a strong Republican Party. Winning elections is the first step in the battle to preserve and protect our values – we need Patti Alderson to keep up the fight.” — Tim Derickson, State Representative
intelligent persistence to bring the resources necessary to help solve the most pressing needs of our community.” — TC Rogers, Vice President Butler County Commissioner
“It is my honor and privilege to endorse Patti Alderson for Butler County’s State Central Committeewoman. Patti is one of the most upstanding, hard-working leaders I’ve ever known. She is a tireless community volunteer, philanthropist, and a top-notch civic leader. Patti is one of those rare individuals who never stops “giving back.” I wholeheartedly ask for your support for Patti Alderson!”
— Nancy Nix, CPA, Butler County Treasurer
“Patti is a staunch Conservative dedicated to the values this County was founded upon and deserving of our vote.” — Greg Wilkens, Butler County Engineer
“I endorse Patti Alderson whole heartedly for State Central Committee. Patti is a person of strong character and moral judgment. Please join me in supporting Patti Alderson on March 15.” — Roger Reynolds, Butler County Auditor
The Black Rhino of the Serengeti are herbivores who mostly eat greenery—brush, grass and other plant life. The RINOs of Butler County eat lots of greens as well, but this often comes in the form of paper money. All the RINOs listed on Patti’s endorsement page are zoo feed RINOs who come to her home and charity events to be fed and have largely been domesticated by her. She controls them, she keeps them fat, dumb, and happy, and she maintains her grip on their existence with her seat on the State Central Committee.
The Black Rhinos of Serengeti are almost always on endangered lists because they have been overly hunted. To this day, they are a protected species. The RINOs of Butler County are also a protected species—they are protected by the State Central Committee but in reality they need to be hunted and thinned for the sake of Liberty. Because, they are over grazing and stripping away all the wonderful resources our fine county provides with a bottomless pit of hunger that always needs to be fed. If Patti weren’t so rich with what they want to eat, they’d erode away with the desire to have full stomachs that could never be filled. So while we want to preserve the Serengeti Rhinos we want to hunt the Butler County RINOs to near extinction for the good of all of us.
Patti lists them above the way an African hunter might mount the head of her trophies on a wall for the admiration of her peers. As she poses next to each picture of all her trophies she looks like a Cabela’s ad for new hunting gear. Except Patti doesn’t just mount those RINOs on her wall, she breeds them first and is heavily responsible for the over population of RINOs in Butler County that we currently have—the insidious money hungry establishment types who are stripping away everything our county offers in favor of their full bellies.
If you want to hunt them and thin out the herd of RINOs that are migrating all over Ohio, then vote for Ann Becker to return the county of Butler to its natural beauty by preventing the overgrazing of the RINOs that Patti Alderson feeds so passionately. Put a stop to Patti Alderson’s zoo full of overgrazing RINOs—and vote to preserve Butler County.
I never mind helping people who are not as fortunate as me. I was born with certain gifts and over many years I developed them in a very unique way through a lot of hard work and unusually tenacious endurance. As I had the little breakfast shown in the following picture I understood why the great American novel Atlas Shrugged was one of the best stories ever told. It told the story of a philosophy which had emerged under Adam Smith’s relatively new economic considerations and properly identified the essence of culture in the United States. Sometimes you only know things innately, which I always have—well before a writer like Ayn Rand was able to put definitions to some of those thoughts. But at times such as the moment I took that picture, literally on top of the world, literature—especially good literature—provides a refuge for people of thought to associate with the greatness they are primarily inclined to. It’s one thing to say that Atlas Shrugged is the great American novel—probably the best that has ever been produced primarily as a product from the United States—but it’s another to consider it within a foreign culture on the other side of the world. I can only appreciate the benefits of having a hobby like the one I do where books are my most valuable possessions as I cut into an egg with such a magnificent view.
It is easy for me to love Atlas Shrugged, because I identify with most of the main protagonists. If I couldn’t, Atlas Shrugged would be an insult. I would say that the novel was not written for the masses, or even what the Occupy communists consider to be the 1%. Atlas Shrugged was written for the 1% of the 1% who completely understand the concept of Atlantis as proposed in the novel—and I am clearly one of them. I’ve always known it, but on that particular day in that very different place, it was clearer to me than it ever has been. Not everyone gets it and I spend a considerable amount of my time trying to help those who don’t—not out of some altruistic motivation, but simply because I feel sorry for those not born with the gifts and the mind that I have. Even though I have worked hard to have that mind, and I’ve taken action over a lifetime to preserve it with an emphasis on authenticity, I do feel sorry for the people in this world who by no real fault of their own read Atlas Shrugged and can only identify with the villain—James Taggart.
Most public education institutions and advanced degrees around the world produce the villains of Atlas Shrugged. Most families nurture their children into the values which most embody James Taggart—yet he is certainly the vilest villain of the classic American story. Yet if a scholar or philosopher really wanted to get into the nitty-gritty of what Thomas Paine and Adam Smith were considering with the American experiment it was to construct a world where the top 1% of the very top 1% of intellectual aptitude could bring to the world through their natural inclinations advancements in human civilization—which is essentially what Atlas Shrugged is all about. It’s about what the world could be like if people like James Taggart were removed from holding society to the vile Vico cycle of European thought—which has likely plunged thinking minds into primitive contemplation for millions of years. So I sipped on my orange juice, let the waitresses properly pamper me as royalty—because in that culture-they instinctively understand what drives the motor of the world, and I watched the world below with a glad reservation that I won’t soon forget as I thought about all the James Taggart’s who were out there holding the world back from its true potential.
James “Jim” Taggart (1977-2020?), in Ayn Rand‘s novelAtlas Shrugged, was President of the Taggart Transcontinental Railroad. But instead of being a productive businessman, James Taggart sought to profit by obtaining and trading various government favors. But his actual motive was not so much the effective mulching of the public, or even of businessmen more productive than he. His motive was the destruction of the productive, a motive that stemmed entirely from jealousy. He carefully hid that motive even from himself, until the day came when he caught himself attempting to inflict pain on another man when that act had no profit in it. On that day, he suffered a complete neuropsychiatric collapse. Whether he lived or died immediately after that, is unclear.
Taggart is an example of a corporatist businessman of the sort who nearly destroyed British industry under the system that operated from 1945 until the election of Margaret Thatcher.
James Taggart was born in 1977, the son of the President of the TTRR and the descendant of Nathaniel Taggart, the original founder. But even as a child he showed that he was not made of the same stuff of which Nathaniel Taggart was made.
His sister Dagny definitely was, and he knew it and resented it. He once told her that, though she was named after their (great) grandmother Dagny, wife of Nathaniel, in temperament she better resembled Nathaniel than Old Dagny. Young Dagny took that as a compliment, a thing that James Taggart perhaps never understood.
One particular episode from their adolescence both illustrated his attitude and served as a prelude to things to come. His father made him a present of a motorboat, and the dockmaster at the Taggart family compound started to teach him how to drive it. The lesson did not go well. Then, in frustration, James turned to Francisco d’Anconia, a boy nearly three years younger than he who was visiting at the time, and challenged him to drive the motorboat. Francisco not only drove it; he demonstrated almost as much proficiency as an adult might be expected to have. James Taggart resented that encounter, and Francisco, ever since.
James Taggart attended college at the age of sixteen. When he graduated (1998), he took his first job with the railroad—in its Public Relations department. In sharp contrast, his sister Dagny, five years his junior, started working as a night telephone operator at a local railroad station. From there she would work her way through the Operating Department.
The John Galt Line, with its rails and even an entire bridge made of Rearden Metal, opened on July 22, 2017, with a highly successful first run. Again Jim was able to take credit for it in the public mind, so much so that a young woman, Cherryl Brooks, actually fell in love with him because she thought that he was the productive genius behind the line.
Jim saw in Cherryl a woman trying to better herself, a thing with which he had no patience. And he saw a way to make her pay for that error: he would marry her and make abundantly clear that she could never be good enough to be a railroad president’s wife. And so he courted her and eventually proposed to her.
In the meantime, he saw the economic boom that Colorado was enjoying, due entirely to the excellent transportation afforded by the John Galt Line, now once again part of the TTRR system. And he determined, with the help of a number of unions and other like-minded organizations, to destroy it—by proposing a series of burdensome and often contradictory regulations.
The regulations went through in November of 2017. They produced the result that Jim Taggart had hoped for. But not all the results were as he predicted. The most spectacular result was one that worried him, at least to some degree: Ellis Wyatt, who had developed a method for extracting oil from shale, set fire to his oil fields and vanished without a trace. Those fields, referred to as “Wyatt’s Torch,” continued to burn for the rest of the period in the narrative.
James Taggart is the chief villain in the novel. More to the point, he is a type of every small-minded individual who, jealous of the talents or productive capacities of those who can do things better than they, seeks to demean or even destroy such persons. They pretend to be serving the greatest good for the greatest number, but in fact their motives are far more dire. They pretend to be altruists; in fact they are spiteful.
Ayn Rand considered altruism and spite to be two sides of the same evil coin, and almost considered them a distinction without a difference. Almost, but not quite—the man known as “Non-Absolute” is an altruist who comes to realize that the policies he is supporting do not support the public good, and rebels against them, at the cost of his own life.
Jim is definitely worse than all the other villains, with the possible exception of Floyd Ferris. All the other “looters” do what they do in the pursuit of short-term gain. Ivy Starnes, daughter of Jed Starnes of theTwentieth Century Motor Company, did what she did in the pursuit of control. But Jim Taggart does what he does in order to destroy. He carefully hides this motive even from himself, until he can no longer hide it, and at that moment, his mind collapses completely.
There is of course much more to the story of James Taggart, and for most people who read the book, they will only understand him. Other characters that they might understand would be the government lobbyists, the various second-handers within the story and the general people in the street wondering when something might happen for some miraculous reason. Because they don’t understand the motor of the world—the primary driver of all things—they are left praying to deities the way primitives idolized the sun for making crops grow. America—as told by Atlas Shrugged—was designed from the outset to find the best and brightest that was produced within the philosophy of freedom the United States offered and let them emerge unhindered to advance civilization. Such people are rarer than gold and to find them; we must as a culture mine for them deep and with great patience only occasionally discovering a cherished gold nugget justifying all our hard work. Most people digging for such gold will fail-they’ll die trying. But that’s worth it because when such treasures are found—they lift everyone up.
That is easy for me to say, because I am certainly one of them. I love Atlas Shrugged because Ayn Rand was essentially writing the story for the few people like me—and I appreciate it. Even though the novel is quite popular and people try to relate—most of them end up being like Jim’s wife in the novel, Cherryl Taggart. I meet a lot of “Cherryl Taggart’s at places like the symphony, the downtown theaters, and at high-end shopping centers and they are often miserable. They always strived for greatness but were taught that it came from people like Jim Taggart-the well-connected, the popular ones who were liked by the most people. Only once it’s too late do they realize they were scammed and they often end their lives extremely resentful. When Cherryl realized in Atlas Shrugged that Jim wasn’t what she thought he was, she killed herself. A lot of women are slowly killing themselves through dietary abuse, intellectual torture, and acting as social parasites toward others for the sheer spite of it.
My feelings about the many Jim Taggarts that I know are that I treat them like insects stuck in my pool during the summer months. If I see them kicking around and alive, I usually take the time to scoop them out to let them live one more day. I consider them lucky to be near me at that particular point in their lives, so I help them. I live my life as a motor of the world. I carry everyone around me with a boundless energy that comes with the type of person that I am. So I don’t mind if the Jim Taggarts come along for a boost in their life. They never appreciate it, and they always take credit for being the masters of industry—but I know that without me they can go nowhere and if I can bring them a moment of happiness—just a little gold nugget to make the Cherryl’s in their life not want to jump off a bridge—or their kids desiring to grow up and be idiots—then I try and try again. I know they don’t appreciate it, but I never lose hope that they might. That is the difference between being an engine of the world and a parasite—which most people relegate themselves to.
When I watch the questions asked of Donald Trump—how will you do this or that, Mr. Trump—I think of Jim Taggart. They don’t have a mind to understand what it means to be a motor of the world. I was glad for that particular breakfast because it was a culture that did understand—and they also understood that they were always on the lookout for such an engine. They innately knew that American culture had a tendency to produce such people so the odds of discovering the 1% of the 1% were greater with every American who sat down at their tables with a finely pressed suit and a little swagger to their walk. They worked to impress such people with the same effort I’ve seen people drive across a state border for a billion dollar lottery ticket, or play the odds at a gambling table—hoping to hit it big even though the odds were desperately against them. Other places in the world outside of America hope with all hope to run into an American who is one of Ayn Rand’s heroes—a product of Adam Smith’s capitalism. Nobody can understand Donald Trump but other Atlas Shrugged protagonists. Trump can’t begin to explain his positions than Dagny could explain to her brother Jim why she was so much better than he was.
Yet, it was the people like Jim Taggart who made up the modern institutions, such as the brand of crony capitalism now known in American, or the socialism of Europe, and the communism of the East. The feared organizations such as the “vile bankers,” the Masons, the Illuminati, the whoever—are made up entirely of people like Jim Taggart. All of Washington D.C. is made up of Jim Taggarts and his wife Cherryl. Yet capitalism was never intended to make those people feel good about themselves. It was meant to sift through them to find the rarest of the rare—the gold nuggets that are so often buried deep within the organized elements of society.
I know it’s hard for all those Jim Taggarts out there to accept that they are not equal to the engines of the world. The people of the world are not equal. Some people are better and more important than others, just as gold has more value than the dirt that often surrounds it. And it’s for that reason that I help the Jim Taggarts that I know. I let them ride my coattails because I know without me; they will likely die miserable deaths prerequisite with a parade of personal failures. And I hate to see that in anybody if it’s avoidable. All I ask is that they respect what I offer. If they don’t, then like insects in my pool, they can drown if they are stupid enough to fly back into the deep water after I have fished them to safety. It’s not my obligation to waste my time-saving them from themselves. But if I happen to be in the right place at the right time, they should consider themselves lucky. The best thing they can do is to shut their mouths, and enjoy the ride because the engine does all the work anyway. And when it comes to Donald Trump, putting such an engine in the White House has no downside. It’s never been done before and that is something that the Jim Taggarts of the world do not understand.
Atlas Shrugged is a work of genius, and that becomes more evident outside of the United States. All nations of the world should study it intently and consider its message when constructing their societies. This Karl Marx obsession with equality needs to be abandoned in favor of Ayn Rand’s quest to discover the exceptional. Mankind needs to step off the Vico cycle for the first time in history—and to advance. For that to happen the Jim Taggarts of the world need to get out-of-the-way and let the engines do their work. They can go along for the ride, but they can’t take the credit with assumptions. They may be able to provide fuel for those engines which they should do out of respect. But otherwise they bring nothing to the table. And they should consider themselves lucky to be in the right place at the right time. Atlas Shrugged is all about potential, and the world could use a lot more of it.
Watch the videos within this article for additional context:
Gosh, it’s been around 6 to 7 years of effort, but you can clearly see how the Tea Party has shaped local and national elections. I remember how it was back then, and I can clearly see it now. On the national stage Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz and Rand Paul were all heavy Tea Party candidates and three of those four are current front runners as the primary season is starting. Old traditional politicians like John Boehner under great pressure vacated his 8th District Congressional seat in Ohio—to a large extent because of the Tea Party, especially in his home town. A silent insurrection has been taking place on the Republican Central Committee behind the scenes and the politics under the feet of Boehner changed into something unrecognizable to him and his donor base. It was never anything against Boehner, but he made himself a public person, and that meant he had to make a choice. The West Chester Tea Party expected him to be authentic, even if the Washington lobbyist culture was fine with people who were Republican in Name Only. So John resigned and now in early 2016 there will be an election starting on March 15th to fill his seat. And out of all the forums to flush out the new candidates, the West Chester Tea Party was at the heart of vetting those future politicians. Not everyone running showed up, but the most relevant did and they can be seen in the following video. It is interesting to watch how the political dialogue has changed over that relatively short period of time. A lot of the things discussed in this video would have been avoided before 2010 by all politicians. Things have certainly changed.
So who’s my pick after watching that video, well for me it’s quite clear—it’s Warren Davidson. I would have liked to have had J.D. Winteregg and Jim Spurlino speak at the event, but they were no shows. In the past I have supported J.D., but if you can’t make it to the West Chester Tea Party events in the south of the 8th District, then those candidates don’t really want to win. You have to get those people on your side, or you won’t win the 8th District. Just some friendly advice—guys. Warren Davidson out of all the candidates on stage at Butler Tech was the clear front-runner. There were things about some of the other candidates that I liked, but they weren’t the type of people who could hope to survive in the emerging Washington landscape. I watched Warren even when he wasn’t speaking. He didn’t make any disrespectful faces when the other candidates were talking—even when what was sometimes said came out bizarrely. With Warren, it’s what he didn’t say that told me he was ready to stand up against the lobbyists of K-Street and represent the 8th District correctly. I spoke to him after the debate and measured that he was the type of guy who would still be a good representative even after a few years in Washington.
I liked Terri King, but she came across to me as an amateur. She dressed professionally, except for her shoes yet had a down-to-earth approach. That might be fine for a public relations person working at the county fair, but representing the 8th District in a far away land wraith with evil takes a thick skin and a steady hand—and Terri didn’t show me that she could do anything but complain like a born again Christian at the treachery before her. You can tell a lot about a person by their shoes. With her, high heel shoes would have been better, or work boots if she wanted to come across as approachable. But the slippers with the suit just didn’t work. I liked what she said, but she projected to me that all she could do was complain. When it came time for action, she reminded me of someone who would hesitate in a moment of indecision—for instance, it’s a late night vote before a government shutdown. She has campaigned on the issue and knows she’s expected to stand by her platform. But she’s in Washington making over six figures a year. The media are camped outside her office door hounding her every time she heads to the elevator. And she doesn’t want to reveal that she’s ready to cave on the vote-because she likes the money that is showing up on her doorstep every day—for really the first time in her life. The suit she wore shows me she knows how to impress at a first glance. But the slippers said she wasn’t ready for a real fight. I don’t care if she has issues with her feet, if she can’t wear proper shoes; she’s not ready for the hostile environment in Washington. You have to be ready for war on every level, from the street fights to the most subtle psychological warfare and not betray the 8th District. She’s not ready or able. She might do better with some local seat in the safety net of Butler County, but in Washington, she’d be eaten alive the first week.
I met Kevin White before the West Chester event and thought he was a nice guy. He was very polite and conscientious. But he is entirely too systematic to be a congressman. His military life has made him unable to think very nimbly. He struck me as someone who would happily fall in line with House leadership and do as instructed—which might not always be bad depending on whom the leadership is at the time—but as an individual, he didn’t have the mind to represent the 8th District. Through his handshake I could tell he was much better at taking orders than thinking on his own. I’d hire him to be a pilot in less than a second—he comes across as very competent and procedural—but not someone who can smell a rat in a conversation with a lobbyist from a powerful pharmaceutical company. To represent the 8th District of Ohio after the way that John Boehner caved to so much pressure embarrassing us thoroughly on a national stage, White is too much of that old type of politician, a guy trying to get elected because of his service in the military and little else—because of his willingness to “sacrifice for the “greater good.” That is a bad recipe for a congressional representative because once a lobbyist can make a case for the greater good whether the topic is war or health care—people like White will lose. I may support Donald Trump for president who sometimes says that things are for the “greater good,” because I expect congress to stand in the way if things get too rough to keep our constitutional republic in check. We don’t need a bunch of softies in tomorrow’s congress. We need tough people who are smarter than whoever is in the White House.
The questions presented by the Tea Party audience did a good job of shaking the candidates off their talking points and forcing them to think on their feet. That style of debate likely kept some of the other candidates from participating. The ones who did stumbled a lot—which wasn’t bad. They may have felt they came across weak, but we had to see how they handled some curve balls. Some of them didn’t come across strongly at all and they were clear amateurs not ready for such a high office. I’m not going to embarrass them—they know who they are. Even though I could say the same about Warren Davidson’s military record as I did about White—there was clearly another gear to Davidson. He showed an ability to think quickly and improvise that was missing from the other candidates. Honestly, that will be the most valuable trait for the next 8th District congressional representative. Whoever it is will have to be able to walk literally into Hell and still maintain themselves as a frosty white honest conservative who can dish out the hits as well as take them without having ruffled feathers. Davidson clearly showed that he had that ability.
Probably the most interesting candidate was James Condit Jr., who showed up late looking like he had just fallen out of a bus that he was sleeping in. He positioned himself on the side of the stage sitting behind the curtain half the night. I’m sure I had heard his name before, but my impression of him was that he was barely hanging on to reality. However, he was very articulate and intelligent when he spoke. He was the most at ease in front of a crowd and had great command of his tonal inflections. He was either a very slick salesman, an Alex Jones loon, or a highly intelligent eccentric. I can’t say that I disagreed with him even though he dropped some bombs during his speaking moments. I’ve written about some of the things he brought up, as I sometimes agree with Alex Jones. Sometimes reality is stranger than fiction and Condit was clearly functioning from that zone of thought. But for the purpose of this article, it was clear to me that he wasn’t serious about representing the 8th District. He’s only running for office to get some media coverage to play his part of Paul Revere announcing the conspiracies that are not only coming, but have already long been here. Condit wants to be on stage, so he’s running for office to get a platform. He’s not serious about the office—otherwise he would have been on time and would have presented himself differently.
I personally know J.D. and thought he should have come to this Tea Party event regardless of whatever was on his schedule. It was important. For what he went through to challenge John Boehner just a few years ago, I would have expected him to be there. But he wasn’t, and Warren Davidson showed himself as a more than viable candidate. As for Jim Spurlino—I like some of the things he has been saying, particularly in relation to Donald Trump, but he should have been there too—but wasn’t. If he really wanted to shake off the controversy of the mystery envelope that showed up under his door—which I’ll cover in a later article, he should have showed up to defend himself. To my mind, if he made mistakes that put him in a compromising position, he shouldn’t be running for congress. If he can’t handle little temptations between marriages—he won’t stand a chance in Washington. The girls like powerful men, compromises will be presented to him every day and you can tell in his campaign ads that his wife wants him to congressman too much. This 8th District job isn’t for softies or guys who like tits and ass at gentlemen clubs. I know lots of construction guys and I like working with them—and I understand the culture—they are the real men who build America. There is a place in the world for New York New York in Franklin and burger places like Hooters. Hard core helmet busting construction guys who work for people like Spurlino sometimes need that kind of environment. It’s not good for family life at home, but it helps to bust knuckles over steel and concrete in the company of men. I don’t do things like that, but I understand the personality type. But in Washington, T&A comes with lobbyists hooks connected to them and if Spurlino made that mistake even once in his life, he’s disqualified in my mind—because K-Street is a thousand times worse. A candidate in the 8th District has to be able to walk through the fires of Hell unscathed with their integrity intact every day, and looking into the eyes of all the people on stage that night, only Warren Davidson has that ability.
In 2016 with all that’s going on and will happen over the next four years, the representative of the 8th District in Ohio needs to be a tough guy who can shoulder temptation without yielding to it. And he’ll need to have the same tenacity after four years in office. Whoever it ends up being better be ready to wear the proper shoes, because the fight will not be easy—in fact, it will likely be the hardest thing they have ever done in their lives—and that includes life and death situations. This is not a light election cycle. It may be the most important any of us will face for another century. So you better make it count.
