Making Parents into Children: When motherhood becomes destructive

It’s something most people have to deal with at some point in their lives, and I think we don’t do it very well.  However, it’s one of those things that doesn’t have many good answers, and that is the care of elderly people.  As our parents age, what do we do when they struggle to care for themselves and lose independence?  For me, I think death is worse than losing freedom and independence, quite literally.  And as I look at medical costs as a government offering, keeping sick people alive longer as they lose their freedoms with more government dependence is the worst kind of sickness of them all, and I think people are better off no longer living.  But, we have a lawyerly society that is way too litigious and a snoopy medical industry that is full of cosmetic do gooders who have created policies and rules that pay a lot of money and give medical expenses quite an income, so there is a lot wrong with the entire industry and the problems come down to just a few basic human assumptions that are more emotional than practical.  And most of us would rather not think about it, but what cost is the nursing home industry to our society for the services they provide when the litigious decision making process puts the burden of care judgement on people not prepared to deal with an emotional crises, making a lot of the wrong kind of people rich off the process, feeding a parasitic health care industry with a demeaning end of life trajectory that the courts find acceptable, but on scale of human need, is dramatically lacking.   And it takes lives once well lived, and essential, and makes them into uneventful closures of forgetfulness and an almost vile hatred for the perpetuation of the human race that has vast evil wrapped all around it.

I usually don’t associate with many people in the healthcare industry, especially those involved in care for older people, for all the reasons mentioned.  However, I did run into Commissioner Dixon and his son, Brent, at a recent event, and we had a good discussion about this very topic.  I hadn’t seen Brent for many years, even though we live in the same general area, and I knew he had managed a nursing home facility, so we hadn’t seen each other since we were ten years old and racing together in a soap box derby event in Hamilton that was the talk of the town back then.  So it was fun to see him again and talk about what has happened over the last four and a half decades.  And I like Don Dixon quite a lot, so we had fun catching up.  But nearby, because of some nursing home talk, a couple of women caught on to our conversation, and it provoked in them discussions they were having about a father in their lives. One of the women was the direct daughter, the other one was a sister-in-law.  And they were talking about how their dad had fallen and hit his head, and they were worried about him and thought he was losing the ability to be the caregiver to his wife, who is in an entirely dependent state.  So, for the discussion with these two women, they were determining that their dad needed to go to a home before he hurt himself and let something bad happen to their mom.  And as I was listening to this conversation, it was getting more revolting by the moment because there were a lot of psychological things wrong with it. 

So, for clarity, I think it would be better for the dad they were talking about to pass away of natural causes at peace in his own home, on his own terms as much as possible.  But the decision was a legal one; if the kids knowingly allow the father to care for the mother and something happens to him, it would provoke something to happen to her, and then they would be found guilty of elder abuse in the eyes of the court.  But even worse than that was a social neurosis that involved the women regarding the decision-making process of how to manage their dad.  Here was a man who had lived his whole life doing things that were important to both society and himself.  And had raised a family and done many things, and now all that was coming to a close with the impending doom of losing personal freedoms to the point where he was just a fetus entirely dependent on the parental figures of society at large.  And this was not the way human beings should be planning their exit from life.  The women I noticed were very animated about this topic for unusual reasons, and it was not by accident that they both had kids who had just recently grown up and moved away from them; emotionally, they were looking for a new baby to care for.  Being middle aged women without the prospect of a baby to have, to give them the feeling of meaning that motherhood often does, they were instead taking that emotional baggage and looking to apply it to their parents, to make their elderly parents into incapable toddlers unable to care for themselves to satisfy the lack of importance they were feeling as aging mothers. 

It wasn’t hard to see how many terrible decisions were being made, which had enormous social costs and were destructive to the individual lives of the parental figures.  And baked into the rule-making process was a desire to humiliate older people and their personal lives into dependent toddlers who ended their life the way they started it, wetting the bed, having their diapers changed, and needing help even to feed themselves.  And there are a lot of women like these two talking who are feeling old, thrown away by their husbands and kids, and they gravitate to their elderly parents to turn them into dependents to give meaning to their lives, which is losing value by the day.  And, of course, a significant amount of money is invested in this process to generate something from it for a very parasitic industry.  In my opinion, I would say let the parents have their independence for as long as possible, because it’s better than losing it.  And if the dad passes away tripping on a pebble on the sidewalk, he is better off than a much slower death while in a nursing home.  And the lawyers should stay out of it.  And the emotional children who have been trying to give meaning to their own lives by making their parents into replacement children for their own grown children have created a real mess.  The costs associated are more parasitic to the burdens of those who define care than to the values of a life well lived, and to protect that meaning from life to death.  A few years in a nursing home and turning once strong people into complete dependents, in my eyes, is far worse than death.  And it is something we should completely reconsider.  Because the emotional children of older people are not in positions themselves to make decisions for their parents because they are dealing with their own sense of value as their children grow up and away from them leaving everyone feeling empty and useless in the process, and no amount of money can solve the problem in the way that human beings require it to be solved.  However, what we can be sure of is that we should not make our parents dependents to avoid dealing with our lack of security once our child-rearing days are behind us.  There is more to life, and adults need to figure that out, rather than putting their parents in homes to satisfy their selfish needs to care for somebody in an infinite state and quell the whims of motherhood once it has been unlocked in them for the perpetuation of the human race, for which they are no longer needed.

The New War in the World: Bioweapons, corrupt governments and health care tryanny

War is no longer what we thought it was.  We have always thought of war as tanks, troops, and aircraft with arrangements on a battlefield to suppress an enemy into capitulation.  But a new kind of war is upon us, and we all knew it was coming since 2010 when Obamacare was seeking to take over 1/5 of the American economy and control whether people lived or died by a new Administrative State of mindless government pinheads.  Just like in war, the goal is to make enough people die to cause their opposition to lose the will to fight.  And that is precisely what we are dealing with now with health care.  By controlling whether or not people live or die, these modern attackers gain control over human behavior and can then get them to do political actions they otherwise wouldn’t consider.  This presents us with the biggest threat to modern society, the Healthcare Alliance, and the prevalence of bioweapons that are now part of joint globalist efforts at creating weapons of terror that kill more efficiently than a bullet or a bomb.  We are dealing with a new kind of enemy here, fighting over government funding and allocation rather than governments against other governments.  Our biggest enemies are not China, Iran, or South Korea.  They are the various biolabs who are making weapons of war that destroy a person from the inside out without them even knowing that they are sick.  And to live, then you will have to take the medicine they make to keep you alive.  Once that relationship is established, people are conquered in ways they never previously thought possible. What would people be willing to do to live life?  Would they give up all their freedoms and independence?  Of course, they will, and we certainly saw that strategy play out during the most recent Covid outbreak. 

The first thing that people need to realize is that Covid-19, as we saw it unleashed on the world from a Wuhan lab in China, was not an act of nature.  It was manufactured through gain-of-function research, of which Dr. Fauci was fully aware, along with many others, and the battleground was about funding.  Dr. Fauci gained power as the government bureaucrat who could distribute the government’s funds for research.  And once those researchers knew who was paying them, their loyalties were driven in that direction.  Our first mistake was thinking that all these government scientists would behave ethically.  That there would be checks and balances on ethics.  But, unfortunately, there are research whores who are every bit as unethical as a street walker, and they will do just about anything for a new condo in Florida or a boat.  To have easy money for their bank account, even if that means killing off a large portion of the population.  And that is what Covid was: a bioweapon designed to control behavior, and it was a test run.  Some people would be driven toward government compliance and would take the government medicine to stay alive, and some wouldn’t, and those people would be quickly eliminated once the manufactured virus strain was released to the public.  For Covid, also chronicled in The Wuhan Cover-up by Robert F. Kennedy, the Department of Defense was very interested in bioweapons to control nations.  It didn’t take long for the Administrative State to realize that an unelected Deep State could gain power over governments, which then controls funding stolen legally from taxpayers, and then distributed to this new threat in the world, the white-coat tyrants who run the Administrative State through the unique power of government health care. 

It started in America at Fort Dietrick under American efforts but quickly jumped into an international partnership with China once it was realized that there was too much regulatory burden in the States.  China had their hand up, and Dr. Fauci and the gang set up shop there knowing exactly what they were doing, even purposely misleading presidents of the United States to build their bioweapon, with the intent to control the world and, in that effort, to gain control of the funding streams provided by governments.  In the past, there were always fights over natural resources, such as oil, gold, or access to a harbor.  This new war doesn’t care about things like that.  The latest fight is over government funding; the money governments take from their people under great power is allocated to these various forms of government healthcare.  Of course, someone, or in the case of Covid, many people were going to figure out that the best way to secure all this government funding was to make people terrified of death, then all the money these research groups could ever hope to get would be easy.  Because governments were pretty dumb by themselves, they had the power of taxation, so they could easily be made to throw massive amounts of money at health care, even though those same researchers were making the most significant threats in the world.  It is all about terrorizing the public into throwing money through their governments at health care, which they are always motivated to do to avoid dying.  The attack zone, even for the media manipulations that took place during the COVID crisis, is that significant advertisers spend money on their reputation, which is more accessible for all involved to build up brand recognition as a savior for the viruses that are being created as bioweapons.  Without the bioweapons and the threat of doom that comes from them, nobody cares about vaccines and big pharma companies. 

In war, everyone always thinks their side is justified in what it does.  And that is the case of this new warfare as well.  People like Dr. Fauci and Bill Gates think they are interceding into people’s lives who will be better off if only they are forced to listen to them.  The money spent on research will ultimately improve science, from their perspective.  So, if many people are harmed along the way, the ends justify the means.  From their point of view.  The greatest danger, however, is no matter how maddening such a thought is, when they gain leverage of mass society to enforce their view of the world with dollars confiscated by governments and then allocated to research whores, scientists who will do anything for money, who will say anything in a report, make any bioweapon, and is willing to lie about it to get more money than they’d ever get through legitimate means.  Our mistake was assuming that these people had our best intentions in mind.  Just as the error of forming the CIA has turned out to be one of the greatest threats in the world.  We always assumed they had our best interests in mind and were passionate about defending American sovereignty.  But what we learn, as a secretive organization filled with globalist sympathizers, they work aggressively to undermine America altogether, including their associations with the COVID-19 virus, President Trump’s overthrow, and election fraud in 2020.  The danger is when these people who have way too much power think they know better than the rest of us, and they have access to money that only governments can take from people, to be used against them as weapons of war in the form of bioweapons, which Covid-19 certainly was.  What might be considered madness that market competition will sort out, now we have artificially empowered forces who can unleash their insanity on mass populations that they wouldn’t otherwise have.  And it’s the most dangerous thing in the world and is undoubtedly the new kind of war on the world stage.

Whatever Happened to Eating a Grapefruit: The Depopulation Agenda is very much alive and real

I remember well all the concern over heart attacks and people dying of them that was so prominent in the 80s and 90s.  My dad used to eat a grapefruit most days because he had a stressful job. Our healthcare industry said that if people, especially in business, wanted to live a longer life, they had to take care of their hearts by taking the stress out of their lives and eating certain kinds of fruits.  But have you noticed lately, these last several decades, that the government doesn’t seem to care much if you die unless it is to scare you into supporting more funding for something or some power grab that benefits them?  After the government-mandated vaccines of the Biden administration, a lot of people were suckered into taking them, and it’s quite obvious that there are a lot of people dying early and often in the age group of 20-50 bracket of strange illnesses.  It’s common now to hear of a popular actor or sports figure who is suddenly dying of all kinds of illnesses that usually don’t start killing people until much later in life, and there are a lot of people who would rather look away from this obvious problem.  Suddenly, our government doesn’t seem to care if we drop dead of a heart attack or some other stress-related issue.  It almost seems like they want us to die and that the entire focus on health care, which is another thing I warned about when the government under Obama wanted to seize 1/5 of the whole economy with a socialist power grab in 2010, was on capacity.  How full hospitals were and how we might help the medical labor unions have more rest and not be so stressed out.  Do you see the pattern yet?

Hindsight tells us the truth: the government healthcare analysts never really cared about heart attacks, and they certainly don’t care in a modern sense about hospitals and their often unionized staff, personally.  They were simply medical Marxists operating in the background of our society to slow down our capitalist country so that wealth could be redistributed around the world more “equally.”  A word that Marxists love to use.  Wherever you hear the word, “equality” you are listening to a Marxist radical.  The goal of all the heart attack talk in the period I referred to, from my youth, was to scare business people away from living a stressful 80-hour work week to succeed in a dog-eat-dog world of American capitalism.  They told us to eat a grapefruit and to take some yoga classes so we could learn to quiet our minds and submit to the communist authority intent to take over the world.  They weren’t interested in saving our lives, they wanted to destroy our capitalist society.  And that was the strategy behind Covid years later, to slow down our economy by keeping us home and out of the workplace, which has now gone on for a few years.  There are still a lot of companies in the world that are still accepting COVID protocols, which were completely made up on the back of a napkin by socialists, communists, and overall Marxists to slow the American economy down so that China and other tyrant regimes could catch up and be more equal.  It had nothing to do with saving lives, but threatening those lives so that there would be a behavior change from a capitalist society to a Marxist one.  As a reaction to COVID-19, the government toyed with the unconstitutional idea of mandating vaccines on an entire population, which some people took, believing the government had their best interests in mind. 

As a result, we see a lot of people in the news dying very early over illnesses that don’t usually emerge until people are older, just like the COVID-19 virus that was manufactured in a Wuhan lab in China.  Of course, this has led to the many conspiracy theories that there is a massive depopulation agenda and that people like Bill Gates are spending billions of dollars of their own money to kill people so that all of us pesky humans will save the planet, by dying.  Could there be any truth to that?  Well, of course.  There are many climate change crazies, who also happen to be Marxists, who believe that a centralized state should control production and that the state should limit the impact on the planet to get to essentially a zero-emission economy.  And, of course, anybody who is even a little good at math these days understands what that means, that there can’t be many people alive to have such an economy.  Some people are plotting the death of millions of people because they believe that the planet being saved from them is more important.  And they have been spending their money on projects that intend to depopulate the earth with shortened lives and much less fanfare over every little death that occurs.  Instead, there almost seems to be a bit of a party every time some major celebrity dies now, instead of the mournful regrets from the grapefruit days when heart attacks were to be avoided so people could live longer by slowing down the economy in an overly stressful world.  Now, they just want to slow the economy down by killing off the people who make that economy work. 

Plenty of evidence shows that the various vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna were rushed through the approval process with an almost malicious incompetency. There were all kinds of things wrong with the vaccines that appear to accelerate debilitating illnesses into an eventuality of death, and nobody seems to care. We aren’t measuring things by lives saved, as we used to, but almost like a race to rid the planet of as many people as possible, and many of these depopulation types, such as Bill Gates, are attached to government health care programs and are obsessed with giving people vaccines under the guise of saving lives when the opposite looks to be happening. So, there is no question that many people in positions of power have a depopulation agenda. What has been up to debate is whether they are killing people on purpose or if all this is accidental. The evidence points to all the youthful deaths as being purposeful, and the media reaction to them has been to numb the public and to normalize death. Not to scare people from dying. The Marxists have found a new way of slowing down economies and aligning themselves with a depopulation agenda, especially in Western countries. These are not the days of grapefruit and yoga intent to live long lives. Today’s medical care is filled with Marxists who want to erase as many people from the earth as possible to save the world from humans with a kind of deity worship that hasn’t been seen since the sacrificial cults of the Aztec and Mayan civilizations. It’s not science they are after; it’s the appeasement of concealed forces for a sentiment rooted in mass insanity. And it isn’t very productive in our modern world and has not been prosecuted as it should be. We do have people functioning in the world intent on mass murder, and they avoid prosecution by buying up the entire governments that might come after them. And millions of people are dying in the process in ways that mass murder in any previous time could never have imagined.

The truth is getting out. And it’s mainstream now

The Government Caused Mess of PPP Loans and Student Loan Forgiveness: To stay in power, they are planning the next pandemic released through a deadly bioweapon

Mark it on your calendar; the Democrats aren’t just going to give up their criminal empire with the Global World Order.  They have been taking advantage of Americans behind a thin façade of helpful activism recently.  But they were always out for the worst the human race can imagine.  The Biden White House is preparing for another “pandemic,” as the communists at the World Health Organization are starting to talk about again because they see what’s going on with populism around the world, and it’s getting harder to cheat in elections.  They aren’t going to play fair; they will try and implement another Covid virus, this time one that is deadly because it’s their only option.  The Biden White House is soaked with serious scandals; people already don’t believe that Biden was ever elected president.  And now people are catching on to how bad this pedophilia problem is everywhere.  We’re not just talking about sex tourism in Vietnam or Jersey in the British Isles right off the northern coast of France.  We are talking about a massive problem that goes well beyond Jeffery Epstein.  People are learning, and they are seeking action.  So, you better believe it; they will try to unleash another virus to halt the impact of the 2024 election where nothing else has been able to stop Trump.  And before they let him in office to crack down on the cartels and drain the Swamp in Washington D.C., they are looking toward another virus to unleash before they all end up in jail for the damage they caused during the first pandemic, which was wholly made up by governments as a bioweapon and released in partnership with China to establish a global Great Reset of all capitalist economies and to gain centralized control converting them into communist ones along the lines of China’s model.   Don’t kid yourself; yes, these people are killers, and they are that malicious.  They will kill a significant portion of the population before they get caught and punished for what they’ve done in the past, and they are indeed planning it as we speak. 

And this is an excellent opportunity to think about what they did do before, which has come up lately regarding student loan debt and the PPP loans provided during Covid to allow businesses to continue paying their payroll as the government shut down the economy leaving everyone in indecision as to how to handle even basic business needs.  What they share in common is a government that stuck itself into the middle of everyone’s lives and made a mess of things.  In America, when we talk about “freedom,” we mean freedom from the stupidity of government.  The government is supposed to serve our essential management needs for a country, but they aren’t supposed to get in the way and rule over us like some spoiled brat aristocracy.  And since the falsely placed Joe Biden has been trying to buy votes among stressed-out young people who are encumbered with too much student debt from a product grossly inflated, which is a college education made that way because the government has tampered with the market by supporting labor costs driven that way from teacher unions and other progressive activism.  The defense of using the government to give relief to those loans by government forgiveness was thrown in the direction of the PPP loans as if they were all the same thing.  And they aren’t.  With Student Loans, that was a choice to hopefully buy into the aristocracy of a tiered system created by the government to manage society with opportunities to “teach” kids Democrat platform options, such as communism, by providing them with a gateway opportunity to get paid more money as an office bureaucrat in the Administrative State.  The government caused PPP loans as a reaction to a condition the government caused, which was the purposeful mismanagement of the economy which businesses must function within. 

PPP loans are loans provided by the Small Business Administration (SBA) to help small businesses affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. These loans were meant to assist enterprises struggling to stay afloat during these difficult times. The loans could cover payroll costs, rent, utilities, and other essential business expenses. The loans are forgivable if specific criteria are met, such as using the funds for eligible expenses and maintaining employee headcount and salary levels. Overall, PPP loans were an essential resource for small businesses looking to weather the economic challenges caused by the pandemic, which the government caused.  Covid 19 didn’t happen in nature; it was made horrible by people who work in communist governments and want to use terrorism to drive people from capitalist markets into communist ones.  And people have been trying to throw them all into one basket as an either-or situation.  PPP loans for many companies were necessary because governments tampered with their way of life.  Student loans are kids trying to buy into an aristocracy of the Administrative State driven by more government activism intent to control society and regulate economic activity as a central communist authority.  I can personally convey the horror stories of the PPP loans because the government was hostile, primarily through the IRS.  They tied up a lot of money, and when it was time to return it, they didn’t want to.  Many companies didn’t make it through Covid because of the government, and it has cost people a lot, which has never yet been redeemed. 

And here we are almost four years later, and nobody has gone to jail over what they did during Covid, for the purposeful murder of people with the bioweapon that was made in a Chinese lab in Wuhan and released, purposely to be just one of the many contributing causes of election fraud in America.  Yes, the people involved are that bad, even worse.  And to cover up their crimes, Biden’s communist-oriented administration has been telling kids to go to college, get liberally indoctrinated, and grow up to become wishy-washy Democrats for the first part of their adult lives, and they’ll pay off their debt.  So, they can pay all those incredibly expensive and equally worthless college professors, mostly all Democrats, a wage they clearly wouldn’t get in the free market where their value is much less.  The college debt was a choice.  The PPP loans were not; that was survival, which, even so, often didn’t work.  And years later, companies are still trying to sort things out from the government mess they injected into the situation.  And it’s all bad and created by government stupidity, which they want to provide more with a communist takeover of the global economy.  No thanks.  They have done quite enough damage.  And now that they are caught, people realize just how bad they have been and who did what to whom; punishment is on everyone’s minds.  That is why they plan to do it all again and expect to use student loan forgiveness to at least put the young people back to sleep so they can stay in power a bit longer through a rigged 2024 election because it’s their only option.  Besides killing off those seeking justice, most people are screaming because it’s their only way out, this time from an angry mob that isn’t as gullible in 2023 as they were in 2019.  Just don’t underestimate how bad government can be or how deadly when fighting for their own survival.

Kids Who Learn to Shoot Guns Grow Up Into Better Adults: Managing stress and dealing with problems under parental care works better than government tampering

It’s come up a lot lately, especially on social media, where there are criticisms of parents who start training their kids to use firearms under ten years old. There have been some cases of kids just over five years old on social media actually drawing pistols from their holsters and shooting, then reloading with a clip that has the more timid-minded of our society exasperated with horror at such a sight. Which, of course, demands some ground rule understanding. I have known a lot of kids, especially growing up in southern Ohio, who worked on farms and started using firearms at a very young age, and they have grown up to be some of the best people in society. And when I see videos of these kids who have liberals so horrified, I see children who will grow up and become very useful as adults. They’ll become good spouses; they’ll be good parents themselves. They’ll be good members of their community. They’ll make great workers. They likely won’t grow up with many dumb problems that many people these days are experiencing through stress management and depression. Learning to use firearms and to manage danger as early as possible is great for young people, and the earlier they learn, the better off generally for them later in life. Out of all the people I know and have known who handle firearms and did so as kids, I’d have to think hard if any of them grew up into some kind of psychological disaster. I can’t think of any. Instead, they usually hold doors open for women; they are polite to adults when speaking to them. And they likely will attend church willingly at some point in their life and have some fundamental beliefs that make them trustworthy people to their friends and neighbors. And their exposure to firearms made them better people, not worse. 

I saw an advertisement for anxiety medicine the other day, and it reminded me of how often I hear about that problem in young people these days. When my kids were growing up, it was Hyper Active Disorder which was why medical firms prescribed Retaline to kids if they were identified as being too hyper in school. I always saw all hyperactive disorders as the latest scam of the medical field, where experts, just as they did with Covid, stuck their noses into people’s businesses in ways they had no right to do. What we have seen coming out of medical professionals with their alignments with the government and Big Pharma has been an experiment that has failed miserably. As the government tried to use public schools to remove parents from children’s lives, the expert class hoped that the drug industry could replace wisdom, experience, and love with some kind of chemical substitute. Of course, that has been a devastating failure. We have watched a steady decline in people generally over the last few generations; the more good parenting was replaced with substitutes. And the substitutes have turned out to be no substitute at all. Rather, they made known problems worse and created problems in people who would be expected not to have them otherwise. The failures of experts extend well beyond the damage they did with a massive global power move regarding Covid in 2020, which has been steadily rejected by many populations ever since, but those failures had been going on for many decades prior, as governments turned to the drug industry to satisfy the psychological void of an overly managed society with too much central planning, and a lack of fundamental love coming from family interactions. 

I think I’ve said it twenty times this past week where some kid, someone younger than 40 as far as I’m concerned, has been said to have some kind of mental disorder, such as anxiety. My response has been that people have always had problems, but recently we turned to drugs to treat them. For anxiety and stress management, the primary cause is that there aren’t enough fathers teaching their kids to shoot guns and build fires anymore. If a kid did learn things at ages 5 through 10 like building fires and shooting guns, we would find that there would be a lot more adults arriving to maturity who could handle problems much better than what we are seeing now, where people are just collapsing over small things. We have had an overly coddled society where the government and media have insinuated that danger could be managed out of existence, which then has left entire groups of people unable to manage the stress that danger poses. Most of those problems could have been solved if an adult had given a kid aged six a pocketknife and taught them how not to cut themselves. I knew many years ago when the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts were coming under attack by leftist radicals, that we were going to have this problem where people were going to grow up under liberal guidelines, tossing out the teaching of managing danger to just turning to government to eliminate the danger. Now because so many people have listened to them and so many children have grown up under their influence, we have a mass society of drug users and victims of a panic attack every time lightning streaks across the sky. And that problem happened when the government told lazy people that everything would be taken care of. If you don’t have enough money, just get on welfare; the government will pay you not to work, and if you are stressed about anything, just take some drugs. With that position, it’s no wonder why the government has been pushing to legalize pot—more drugs and more dead minds, which make people easier to control for an out-of-control government. 

Whenever I see young people working with firearms, I don’t see abuse but self-reliance. Teaching children to handle danger at a young age, and to manage it properly, with poise and persistence, is the key to a successful adulthood, and those who criticize such methods are part of the problem. Listening to those types of people who think guns are too dangerous for children to handle at all has led our society to the problems it has now, which is an unmitigated disaster. I would rather have a 6-year-old learning to shoot guns with their parents and showing proficiency around them even in their maintenance than some crazy adult flipped out with hypertension because they never learned how to manage stress and do things for themselves. The secret fear that all these anxiety victims have is the loss of a safety net where the safety blanket of an all-powerful government won’t be there to relieve them of stress, that the drugs might stop working, or that the money might suddenly disappear. People who learn to live without that security are much better able to do for themselves, so when tough times come, they don’t panic; they just solve the problem. And that’s what’s missing these days. There aren’t enough young people being taught how to handle guns, and they are growing up to be liberal disasters of panic and anxiety. And as a result, everything that is stressful comes out as anxiety as if that were an excuse for not performing. And that’s why we have the problems these days that we do. Government and Pharma tampered with something that worked great before they came along and messed with the basics of human needs with their own misaligned philosophy that has been so destructive and ruined so many lives.

Why Government Health Care is Bad: Johnson & Johnson ordered to pay $572 Million to fight opioids in Oklahoma

There are many more lawsuits ahead for Johnson & Johnson, one particular in Ohio coming in October that will likely end the same way as the one in Oklahoma did which granted $572 million in damages to help the state pay for its opioid crises. Of course, Johnson & Johnson will appeal and will try to settle out of court as many cases as they can. But what cannot be appealed or staved off in any way is the cause of the opioid crises itself, which is essentially the entire medical industry from the local doctor and pharmacy to the multibillion-dollar pharmaceutical companies that thrive of death and pain. Now that there is a roadmap to prosecute a company like Johnson & Johnson for their role and marketing dangerous pain killers to the public, then neglecting to mention the terrible side effects just so they could sell mass quantities of the drugs, many more states will start to get similar judgements and if the high courts grant payment and reject the appeals, then many of these big companies are done for. Which wouldn’t be a bad thing.

This is the big problem when government and corporations get together against the public good and don’t allow capitalist competition to rule the day. People must understand that the argument over health care isn’t to make people better, it’s to fight over who will get paid off of people’s pain. When there is profit in pain, this is the kind of effect everyone can expect. The solution of course to medical insurance is to have less people sick, for our medical system to repair people, not to prolong their death just so that they can be prescribed medicine to ease their pain. At the heart of the opioid crises is a problem that is the foundation of our entire civilization, are we going to go forward and evolve or will we just decline into dust and be one silly little page in history. The crux of the debate is upon us and it is the result of this latest drug company lawsuit.

Unfortunately, while many of us crave personal freedom about what television shows we want to watch, what cars we drive, who we marry, what schools we go to, what we like to eat on a Friday night, we surrender our lives to doctors almost entirely. We assume they know best because we were taught in school that they did, and we take their advice on everything, how to live our lives, whether or not we can work or be on disability, or what drugs we will put into our bodies which could change everything about us. As a matter of fact, every mass shooter recently had one thing in common besides broken homes, they all were on anti-depressant medicine—which of course taken with marijuana and alcohol can have devastating effects on sanity. But doctors enjoy the free vacations to Hawaii and other exotic places because their name appears as drug dealers from the local Walgreens and they get rewarded for writing the prescriptions. And so long as the trust in doctors is there and they desire to profit off the sick, we will always have this problem.

Personally, I avoid any kind of drug, even when I’m sick. The desire to alleviate pain is to attempt to shut out part of living. If something is painful it needs to be fixed and if you just numb the pain, you will never fix the problem. The purpose of pain is to solve it, not to suppress it. Instead of an insurance industry that pays for all these drugs to suppress pain, our focus should be to get people healthy to the point where they don’t have pain because they aren’t sick. But the massive imprint of the big pharms that drive up the cost of insurance and medical care in general is far too great and the only way to get out from under them is to essentially put them out of business in the way that Oklahoma and Ohio are striving to do. The amount of money at stake in the medical industry is staggering, to the point where $572 million is really just a small fee to pay. Johnson & Johnson would rather not pay it, but that alone isn’t enough to alter their operations. And there are far too many politicians who, like the doctors that prescribe the medicine, profit off of people’s pain.

For all the same reasons that there are political factions who are against President Trump’s attempts to make friends with North Korea or Iran, and to fight China with trade wars, that is because those factions represent those who profit off the suffering caused by the conflict. You don’t have to look very hard to see that dear reader. It’s as obvious as a sunrise in a cloudless, desert sky. The opioid crises was caused for all the same reasons, because there is profit in pain and death, and short term, small minded people would gladly trade in their immortality for a beach house in Florida for twenty years of their gradually diseased life. There is no Republican health care plan that could be unleashed so long as this is the state of the medical industry, to profit off of pain and to drag out the effects of death to give pharmaceuticals a market longer into the lifespan of the average person. It’s not the quality of life that health insurance is seeking to cover, it’s to maintain dependency so the drug companies can flourish, which is why they support politicians who argue for universal health care.

Human beings are just biological machines, there is nothing about them that cannot be fixed or maintained at a certain healthy level. If they were healthy once, they could be healthy again. But our medical industry is not interested in healthy people who do not need them. They need the sick, and ever dying. It is a short-sighted profit path for the partnership between government and corporations and has nothing to do with capitalism. The entire system plays to the worst of human nature, to remain short sighted, and to avoid pain suppressing problems instead of solving them.

If Trump had not been elected president these fights wouldn’t be happening. It is in the lack of a government health care solution that there are any signs in any courts to even consider taking on big pharma, because the lobby money is lucrative. But Trump has changed politics and politicians are seeing the benefits of the long view as opposed to the short and science is finally starting to put courage in the minds of the sick. More and more people are realizing that they don’t have to listen to their doctor, that maybe if they stay healthy, that they can avoid the doctor all together. And when that happens a real freedom can be realized that most people never thought possible. But to have it they can’t be on drugs and under the influence of a medical system that wants to ride them, not to set them free. When we talk about government health care what we are talking about is prolonging this problem and when we talk about suing big pharma, we are actually seeking to free ourselves from their influence. And that is a great thing that couldn’t come fast enough. Then once it does, we can really get started as a species because if there is anything that is truly holding us all back it’s the nonsense about life and death and sickness and health. We can do better and if big pharma goes down, we can have something much, much better.

The Choice Between Life and Death

We are on the healthcare debate again, where Democrats only have the one real approach, Medicaid for all, or some other government centralized system, which could and only will net a debilitating result for its participants. Like most things in their political philosophy, their version of healthcare is centralized, expensive, and only results in delaying bodily breakdown, not preventing disease. It wouldn’t take much for Republicans to become known for healthcare except for the process of completely reinventing the concept. When it is said that all other places in the developed world have free healthcare, what they really mean is that the intention of the health maintenance is in pain maintenance, not the actual repair and sustainability of life. To be entirely honest, the best and cheapest healthcare is simply not to have to go, to maintain a body well into old age without needing treatments that are expensive and cumbersome.

The concept of a doctor is one of those things that has evolved during the progressive age as part of the interconnectedness of society. A culture of dependency so that no one person can roam about on their own without the support group of one’s peers. In that regard we have given doctors way too much power over the course of our lives. For instance, a doctor’s note can get an employee out of work, or demand that we shift our incomes into prescribed treatments that are not part of our personal decision-making processes. We turn to the doctor for every little itch and scratch these days and that is another aspect of the progressive dream society to have other people decide your personal fate, because once you accept that, you will gladly accept other invasions of your personal decision-making processes, allowing a centralized government to provide dictates for which you will live.

Of course your local doctor would never tell you that, they are unlikely aware of it themselves. These ideas are not talked about on Oprah or The View, the are created in social clubs behind wine glasses, likely in Europe where everyone talking to each other is full of themselves on such limited knowledge that they have managed to acquire in their lives between gossip columns and tabloid utterances. Sure some of them hold Master Degrees and doctorates but their knowledge is often too specific and overly specialized. They never really see the big picture, only what they have been taught by other underdeveloped people, so they never question the insanity of the system for which they are advocating. That is how we ended up with the medical system we have today, doctors who essentially prescribe medicine to override the body’s natural defenses to slow the debilitating effects of the aging process so that the system itself can make as much money as possible along the way. For the liberal always looking for more people to be dependent on a centralized system our medical industry is the perfect partner for them, because it essentially takes independent, self-reliant people and makes them dependent first on medicine, then on a government to help make that medicine available to them. It’s a bad system that only brings about bad results. The cure for cancer is not in the next Medicaid expansion, if ever at all. The cure for cancer will happen when it is realized that there is a lot more money to be made off fixing people then in killing them.

Wrapped up in the hopes and dreams of the typical liberal is to live a wild and reckless life when we are young so that our bodies contract diseases for which last our entire lives. Then we find ourselves at the doctor regularly dying at a predictable age once the system has looted itself off us for an amount of time that has been determined not to stress out the earth. Liberals are anti-life in most of their assumptions contrary to their utterances of wanting to help people, it is in their actions where their true nature is revealed, in their support for abortion, for the destruction of the family concept, in reckless personal practices such as drug abuse and unregulated sex. When you really get into the mind of a liberal what they want is for human beings to get off the planet so that mother nature can live free of the human being, because that is where their collective consciousness puts them intellectually, as mere bacteria in the body of the cosmos and they don’t see a need for the human to put its imprint into the universe—especially not on earth which we are supposed to sacrifice ourselves to for its preservation at all costs. Liberals are anti-life so obviously their approach to healthcare will be full of sickness and a degraded lifestyle of gradual dependence on medicine and government until we are all dead.

Yet there are options, I’ve talked about them before. Regenerative medicine is the real wave of the future. There really isn’t any reason to get sick. The human body has all the imprints within it to regenerate, that is how we were all formed as babies anyway. That process is still within us even up to old age. It would be easy to have a Republican healthcare system that functioned on truly fixing people instead of keeping them in a depleted state. The reason we don’t have such a thing now is that the medical industry employs a lot of people, and those are voters, so we don’t make the switch from debilitating medical procedures to proactive, largely because the industry itself depends enormously on the perpetually sick people they mooch off of for their existence. It has become a reality we have slowly accepted over time even though the evidence for other options is abundant.

The difference is literally a below the line or above the line option. Keeping people sick and always dependent on somebody else versus self-reliance and living an optimal existence. It is not for the government to provide healthcare, that is and has never been the question for above the line people and a society intent to function from that position, it is for science and medicine to actually improve people’s lives so that they don’t die of cancer and heart disease, or other ailments. But for them to heal as they did when they were five years old and growing. The best Republican healthcare plan would keep people from becoming sick, not focus on making them that way so they would become another dependent voting bloc hoping Democrats will give them free medicine to live five minutes longer.

It really is that simple, but to reach those lofty ambitions we as the human race have to turn away from our dependency on medical professionals to determine our state of existence. The goal of medicine is not just full recovery from all ailments, but improved lives as our souls occupy our fleshly bodies. Those bodies should run in an optimal condition always improving. That is how the medical industry should function and could if only we would be so bold. But we must take the dependency politics out of the mix because that is essentially what Democrats are advocating for. They don’t want to fix people, they want to kill them, so to preserve nature. But along the way they want your vote, and your money. And when you die, they want your kids, and your grandkids. They want the cycle to continue without a real solution forever, which is exactly why their proposals are evil and need to be defeated every way imaginable. It truly is a tale of two political philosophies and only one is right. It is in all reality a choice between life and death.

There is No Such Thing as Universal Health Care for All: It’s a dumb idea created by dumb, lazy people hungry to control us all

When we are born there is no right to healthcare. Other people are not burdened with our support for life, and there is no guarantee that, that industry will even be around for our lifetime. The socialist fantasy of universal healthcare like a universal living wage are ridiculous notions born of lazy, below the line thinking. The problems of course are that people cannot be compelled just because they live to care for other people other than themselves. But more than anything, the healthcare industry itself is a changing business model and in its current state needs a lot of work. There is more to the fantasy alignment of socialism politically and socialism in medicine. One thing about modern medicine is that it is a very socialist enterprise and I personally despise it. Demanding funding to fill that monster isn’t a good idea and that is truly at the heart of the matter.

I am normally a very healthy person. One of my best features that I am very proud of is my immune system. As a kid I had perfect attendance for years in school and was seldom ever sick. As an adult I almost never miss work for anything and bounce back quickly when something major does happen. But I am over 50 now and that brings with it new challenges to a body that is beyond its reproductive usefulness. Nature has a way of rejecting bodies it no longer needs and as we age we all deal with the consequences of this effect. The world has little need for a human body that is no longer reproductive or seeking to be, so disease and degradation are facts of life for any aging person. But I still don’t accept that I am powerless to not determine my own fate so I found myself deathly sick for about three weeks at the end of 2018 and wondering the aisles of Wal-Mart at 6:30 AM seeking a way to combat my multiple ailments. I was highly suspicious that I may have ingested some government formed mutation of the flu designed to kill me because I just couldn’t shake this sickness and there were moments when I wondered if I was actually going to die.

My children were very worried, and as we moved into the New Year there was pressure to get over the sickness, so I could resume my life and all the people who need me to do my thing for their own benefit. So I won’t get into the details of what I had to do to fix myself. It certainly didn’t involve illegal drugs which I would never do under any circumstance. But I’m not going to give any of my enemies any knowledge of what I know about medicine and how to overcome attacks to my body from either genetically modified viruses or nanotechnology, let’s just say that. But I know more than most people could imagine and that condition will remain. However, for a while, I was concerned and actually considered that if I got it wrong, I may have ended up dead. So things got pretty serious. Yet when faced with the worst of it, going to the doctor was not an option, for contextual purposes.

There are times and places for doctors, but the system is so corrupt that I will avoid going even in life and death circumstances. I would trust myself more to come up with a solution than a doctor. Doctors as they are now are designed to take a sickness and extend it so that people lose their individuality and independence turning to drugs instead of their own immune systems and that is the dark little secret to the medical profession and why Democrats and other progressives want universal healthcare. They don’t want to fix people, they want to make more people’s lives dependent on the healthcare industry for which government seeks to control. It’s a very malicious plan.

As I explained to my daughters at the height of my own sickness, if a doctor had the ability to diagnose my condition then they would find prostate problems, cancer cell counts that were high, spinal alignment trouble, heart pressure problems and many other factors for which they would attempt to advise prescriptions to remedy. Most people would follow their recommendations to their own graves. As I told my kids I wasn’t ready to surrender any of my personal independence to drug companies and would rather die in the process, which I almost did a few times. But that’s how serious I was about it. As I have said many times the entire medical industry is turning toward regenerative growth, and it is there that I turned to solve my own problems, and likely always will. It works, it’s not a bunch of hippie science but in using what our bodies have their entire lives to stay healthy. I trust my immune system to fight off anything. If unusually genetically modified assailants come in contact with it, then sometimes that immune system needs a boost, but ultimately, that immune system needs to stay fighting ready all the time, and to be healthy. Our modern healthcare industry unfortunately seeks to destroy that trend and make adults more dependent on drugs than their own systems and that is the real terror that is behind the progressive universal care fantasy that is being championed by today’s Democrats.

By accepting universal healthcare for all it would be like accepting a dial-up telephone as the end of technical innovation for the medical industry. Instead of pushing for the next iPhone in technical breakthroughs where people weren’t just treated for being sick, but to restore them to complete health so that doctors and medicine didn’t have a monopoly of control on their lives is the trend that is trying to be born. With more political involvement the desire from Democrats is to prevent that opportunity because their ultimate desire is to use the medical industry to control the population, because like open borders, when they control whether or not people will live or die, that tends to have an effect on the ballot box and so far I haven’t heard anybody talk about that aspect of this argument. The Democrats don’t want to save people with universal healthcare, they want to control them.

As I provided in my personal example, I’d literally rather die than give up that personal freedom. I do not trust the medical industry to have my best health in mind when advising me on critical health issues. I’d rather take care of it myself which should say a lot. I’m by far a paranoid person, but I see a trend in medicine which indicates very below the line thinking. As an employer I am not impressed with a doctor’s note from an employee that does not come to work. I have to honor it legally, but it certainly changes how I feel about the employee as an option of investment for the future. And I exercise my rights to have such an opinion. Doctor’s don’t run my life in any way, they don’t tell me what drugs to take, what surgeries to have, or how productive I’ll be. And I am certainly not open to giving them more power with a guaranteed government backing for their industry with universal healthcare. I think that is the dumbest idea in the history of ideas for an industry that needs much less bureaucratic elements and much more innovation. People need to be restored to health not dependent on more government and the current health care industry does not fix people properly, and that is the heart of the conversation, not a right to something that is bad for you to begin with.

All Health Care is a Scam: The Future Requires Courage and Offers Adventure

I can’t help but think of Atlas Shrugged, the great Ayn Rand novel, when I think of health care issues. Listen to Doc Thompson talk to Bob Hackett on 700 WLW about prescription drug addiction, Medicare fraud and various health care related topics.

In Atlas Shrugged Hank Rearden invents a new metal called Rearden Metal which is stronger, lighter and can be produced in larger quantities much cheaper than traditional steel. It’s so good that the government offers to buy him out to prevent the metal from hitting the market. Their reason is that the metal is too good, and will cost many steel workers their jobs because those companies producing traditional steel will not be able to compete. Sounds like farm subsidies to me, and countless other debacles the government has stuck its nose in to prevent pure completion which embraces technological advancement. Ayn Rand’s book is fiction but written over 50 years ago, it is all coming true almost exactly as she warned us. Case in point, look what the government did with General Motors.

Speaking of a car company like GM, a similar story could be told about Preston Tucker who invented the Tucker Car in the late 40’s. The government sent Senator Ferguson of Michigan, representing the big car companies of Detroit to go after Tucker with legalities, all of which were explored in Ayn’s book, but this wasn’t any fiction. Tucker nearly found himself in jail, and he lost his car company because his car was “too good.” The big three couldn’t keep up with Preston. So the government cut the knees out from under the innovator to protect the status quo. The result of this intervention was predicted by Ayn Rand and can be seen clearly now. The Motor City’s engine is dying. Detroit’s population shrank by more than 25% in the last decade, according to Census statistics reported in the New York Times. The city’s population fell to 713,777 in 2010, a drop of almost 240,000 residents. That’s 100,000 more than Katrina-ravaged New Orleans lost.

See the rest of the Detroit article here:

http://finance.yahoo.com/blogs/daily-ticker/increbile-shrinking-city-detroit-becoming-ghost-town-20110323-095202-383.html

The government should have left Tucker alone and forced the car manufactures of Detroit to compete. But government did what it always does, it corrupted innovation and growth with an attempt to control the manufacturing process. And 60 years later, look at Detroit. But the jobs the senator and his friends were protecting lasted so those people could retire and go fishing for a couple of years, and that’s all that mattered to those people during that time. They didn’t care what would happen to Detroit a half a century later. They only thought of themselves.

Well, the same thing goes on in every industry, most notably the health care industry.

Health care now has its own version of Rearden Metal. It’s called regenerative tissue construction, and DNA engineering. See my article with videos about regenerative medicine here: Well worth your time in investigation.

We have arrived at a time and place where the human being can change what getting older means. We don’t have to take pharmaceutical medicine any longer, or at least we shouldn’t have to. Science has arrived to make such things seem barbaric. Growing new body parts and fixing all illnesses, genetic defects, and even cancer rests within genetic engineering, and will very, very soon be as common to our language as television is now, compared to a person that remembers life without television. The human body can repair itself. It built itself within a mother’s womb and can always regenerate all tissue at any time. Those secrets have begun to be unlocked.

Hospitals except for emergency surgery such as gun shots, car crashes and other traumas will become unnecessary. Doctor visits less needed. And prescription drugs including the thousands of drug stores all over the country are going to become useless.

There won’t be a need for health care such as what we have today. I sat in a recent meeting with my health care provider where they explained that the costs had gone up again this year. I wondered how long any of the people working in that industry think this can continue. The health care industry is where education and other public sector positions are at; at the maximum amount that society can or should be willing to pay for their services. The people working in these fields are in for a shock if they are not prepared to adapt to the changes.

Medicare is a corrupt system that costs all of us a treacherous amount of money.

This kind of thing has to stop. Obama Care will only exacerbate this kind of behavior. We need a lot less of this fraud and abuse, not more. And regenerative science will give us the option. It will allow us to extend the retirement age to perhaps 100 to 150 years old. It will solve our Social Security problems, and it will eliminate much of the expensive abuses that go on in the medical industry. But it will require human beings to think differently. And humans aren’t good at that. Look at these idiots in London today, just because the government wants to cut its costs, which is the responsible thing to do. People like this are parasites to innovation and are incredibly short-sighted and define why I can’t stand unions.

The great moral question of tomorrow will be a religious one, how long should we live? Do we have a right to manipulate the aging process? The answer is that of course we do, because we already do with prescription drugs, that we’ve all come to accept it as a reality. The next natural step in that scientific advancement is regenerative medicine. We have to look at it as the only moral solution to our current funding dilemma and it is the most humane way to deal with handicaps and debilitating illnesses.

Government already knows this, but they will not act on it until the money runs out. They will attempt to not become unpopular with voters working in the medical industry, nurses, doctors, insurance companies, health care providers, pharmacists, drug manufactures, etc. There is so much money generated in health care that government will cling to an old archaic system just to preserve jobs.

The medical industry as we know it will change. New jobs will be created, but they will be different roles, and there will be a lot of resistance to those changes. Drug manufactures will spend billions of dollars to prevent people from trusting new forms of medicine, just as steel lobbyists in Atlas Shrugged tried to keep a new metal from hitting the market. They don’t want the cost of competition. They, just like those in the education profession, cling to the old way of doing things, because their pensions and job security are tied to it.

I’ve changed professions 5 times in my adult life, because I’ve always adapted to change. I have never fallen in love with any position I’ve held, but always viewed them as a way to supply income to my family. I have never thought of retiring with a pension from a job. I will work as long as I feel like doing something for income. I have no intention to wither away into a gradual degradation of my body and spend the rest of my day’s fishing. In fact, I think any human being that views their life as an hourglass is a fool that sets unneeded psychological limits upon themselves. We live in an exciting age that should embrace the entrepreneurial spirit of free enterprise, the way America did leading up to the Civil War, and ironically the introduction of Marxism from Europe around the middle of the 19th century. Government needs to get out of the way of the safety business, the regulation business, the job creation business, in fact, it needs to get out of the way completely. Let everything that will fail, fail, and let innovation solve our problems.

I know what it’s like to lose a job. I’ve had periods of wealth, and periods of complete collapses. I can remember vividly days where I rode my bicycle to work 12 miles each way all year-long to save money on gas. And I’ve worked every job and odd job one can dream up from sales to janitorial work and everything in between. I’ve been on the bottom and have been on top. I know what I’m asking when I tell people to be bold, not to worry, and not to cling too tightly to the job you currently hold, because to do so prevents innovation which is necessary to the growth of our nation, and ultimately beneficial to our everyday lives. What is the point of arguing about retirement and pensions if such things aren’t needed in a future where life expectancy will double or triple within the next two decades? And to those of you reading this that think what I’m saying is science fiction, check it out for yourself. There is only one reason for us to continue dying at age 65 to 85, and that is to protect the jobs of those in the health care industry. That’s the only reason, because science is bringing us new options that many people would forgo in favor of security. Think what an absurd notion it is to consider that someone would trade a life of limitless adventure and unknown excitement for one that is certain to end about 10 years after retirement. Yet those in government that seek to suppress these new scientific discoveries will do just that, because they are short-sighted puppets to lobbies sent by pharmaceutical companies to stifle the creativity of our nation, and are themselves cancers to our inventive spirit.

I see those pharmaceutical lobbyists as corrosive and foolish as the typical labor union, which also cleaves like idiots to the mundane existence of life between the break bells and an eye toward retirement where they can finally live their own life, just as it is ending.

The question is do you have what it takes to say yes to life? Because in saying yes, you say you have the courage to reinvent yourself as many times as needed to always look with an eye toward the rising sun and leave the false security to those seeking sunsets.

And in saying yes, the world may crumble, but it will be rebuilt with something much better and stronger than would have otherwise been possible.
