Facebook And Friends

This is a question I answered on a public forum where I am apparently still welcome and for now uncensored .Big Tech firms face serious headwinds. The big one that confronts Facebook, is that people don’t use it anymore. Sure, the official numbers show otherwise.  There are ways to create official numbers. There is no way to hide reality when reality takes hold. Facebook is dead space. There is a limit to how long it can be presented as otherwise. Continue reading

Elitists Are Born

Elitists are born not made. An elitist is hardwired to manage the lives and behavior of aggregations of people with strong herd instincts. It is a co-dependent relationship between the elitist and the people whose lives are managed. Rank and file people instinctively relate to government as if it were a parent. Elitists and the rank and file are drawn together like opposite ends of a magnet. Continue reading

Obedience To Authority

Every now and then, some brave soul ventures forth and blows the whistle on official corruption. Of course, whatever constitutes official corruption, does not appreciate the whistle having been blown on them. The cost to the whistleblower is devastating. Society is prone to automatically believe those on whom the whistle has been blown

Much of what is true, is old. Such as human nature is, when truth is discovered, it is talked about for a short period of time. Then, life goes on as it did before, with the new insight delegated to the back burner, as if it was never discovered. When the truth is something other than what society deems acceptable, it is ignored or replaced with something more agreeable. The Milgram experiment proves just how prone human beings are to obey authority. Continue reading

Stock Market Scheme of Things 02/23/2024 Thru Spring


Stock prices are still being managed successfully. Nothing significant to the downside will occur as long as that is the case. If and when that changes, the indexes will drop.

As it is, these are the key factors.

Anytime a major financial institution or elite player gives a bearish warning, a short squeeze is in the offing. As long as minor league pundits on YouTube broadcast that a crash is imminent, it is not going to happen. As long as traders, investors, economists and all others explain market action in terms of normal market influences, nothing is going to change. Continue reading

Texas Border Crisis Solution

Most problems have simple solutions. However, those kinds of solutions are never used or even suggested. Real solutions require a change in thinking or using the principle of deferred gratification. Also, the experts implementing solutions want to be paid as much as possible. Genuine solutions are so simple, there is no profit in even suggesting one.

Establish a free market zone along the Rio Grande. The U.S., Mexico, or both could do this. In this zone, there would be no Social Security, other entitlements or other government benefits. It would be up to the folks in this area to make their own laws. There would be a separation between the economy and the state. Continue reading

How To Be Poor


Either the people control their government or their government controls them. Americans have relinquished control. A total disaster is unavoidable.

Now, here is the lesson on how to be poor. 

Your mindset has to change. That is the hard part. Don’t do that and your suffering will be unmanageable. Being poor does not have to be miserable. The hardest part is the process of losing everything you have. After it is all gone life gets easier. The how to be poor comes from existing in a state of wanting. Let that sink in.

Give up all paid entertainment. I mean that seriously. Learn how to entertain yourself. Most of what we enjoy in the form of paid entertainment. was developed by those in ethnic groups which were desperately poor. All of modern music, except classical, comes from African Americans first, and the Irish. secondly. These groups had nothing as in no money and no way to get any. Still, they did not do without entertainment. It doesn’t have to be  music. Regardless, you can’t pay to be entertained. It is the wanting that makes one miserable.

As you are becoming poor, stop spending on anything that is not needed for survival. Poverty can be a great opportunity to go on a diet. Don’t consume raw sugar or foods that contain it. Do that and hunger pangs will disappear in a short time. Eat only what is needed for survival. Learn to be your own doctor. Study up on alternative medicine. Resources are abundant.

Most money spent with healthcare providers is wasted anyway. Mostly, the Affordable Care Act turns you into a resource to be exploited. Do not pay someone for the privilege of serving as another entity’s resource.  See a doctor when you know you need to. You can take your own blood pressure. You can check your blood sugar level on your own.

You will have bills and you can only pay some of them. Understand that you are in an every man for himself environment. You must become completely mercenary in dealing with money issues. Prioritize your bills in order of personal consequences for not paying them. Place your credit card bill far after your utilities. If you have to,, lose the card.

What if you get sued? Find out the facts concerning collections law in your state. These kinds of statutes are not complex legal jargon. They state exactly what the law is.

Suppose you get a letter from an attorney threatening a law suit unless you pay. Throw it in the trash and forget about it. Suppose you get served with legal papers? Understand that no collections attorney is going to pursue a case against you, if you have no money.

The papers will require you to file an answer at the court house. Don’t hire an attorney. Write out an answer on a legal pad and go to the court house and file it yourself.  This is clerical work. You can scribble out,”I deny everything.” and file that. Make the answer look as cheesy as possible.  Maybe spill some mustard on and wipe it off. This will help convince the plaintiff’s attorney that you are not a profitable enough  defendant to bother with. If the suit goes forward, if you don’t show up in court, the plaintiff will get a default judgement. This is not a bad option. The awards will be larger than if you went to court. In either case, just because you have a judgement against you, does mean you will end up paying. The expense of collecting is substantial. With most judgements of this type, no attempt to collect is ever made. Just in case an attempt is made, Don’t have anything, that according to you state’s law, can be seized.  Given the situation I see coming, there will be more judgements than you can shake a stick at along. Your pockets need to be empty. None of this is legal advice. It is a strategy to use, if you can’t pay for legal advice. No advice intended here, just the voice of experience.

Do not be hesitant about accepting government subsidies or bailouts. If government subsidies are good enough for corporations, they must be deemed good enough for you. I don’t know if there are any billionaires in the world today, who became what they are, without government subsidies. Use them as role models. None of this today is about right or wrong. It is about surviving in an every man for himself situation.

Suppose We Go To War

With our intelligence agencies burning so many resources monitoring ordinary people who might be being truthful in a way that might expose government, corporate and deep state agendas, perhaps they are not noticing meaningful possible strategies our alleged enemies might employ if a war breaks out..

Can The Stock Market Go Down?

In theory,the stock market can go down. Which matters most, theory or reality? Here is the reality. When ten percent of the population own ninety percent of all stock, they can push stocks around as easy as pushing jelly around on a plate. There has been  an ongoing successful effort for decades to consolidate stock ownership of assets, especially stock. There has to be a reason for that. The obvious reason is to control stock prices.

The Future of Gregg Abbott

Prior to his new prowess as a border crisis hero, Abbott had earned a reputation as an admirer of the WEF and other collectivest  initiatives. Does one case of being a states rights hero change his stripes? Previously, I posted an article explaining the impossibility of a politician being elected to a high office without being a psychopath. As hard as this is to swallow, take the time to read the article (link below). Make a counter argument to each point made and explain to me how else it can be that way. Continue reading

How The War Can Be Won

U.S citizens don’t understand that there is a war waging against them minute by minute. Citizens in all other countries are fighting the same war. All are fighting the same enemy. The enemy is organized and and focused. Citizens around the world are not. When compromised, they behave much like ants in a bed that somebody hacks into with a pick ax. They get disturbed and run around mindless, not knowing who struck them.
