Bread And Circuses - The Direction Of My Country

[ok doser]

Those who forget their history are doomed to repeat it.

In 1969 I watched Neil Armstrong walk on the moon. I was 9 years old. All of my life the greatest man in the world, the President of the United States had been telling us that we were going to do it. In 1969 we did it. I took it for granted and did not understand the emotional response from my parents whose childhoods encompassed the Great Depression and World War II and especially from my grandmother who remembered, as a child, seeing the first automobile in her small town in central New York.

We have diminished as a country. We have failed the younger generations. We have failed to educate them. We have failed to inspire them. We have failed to challenge them.

Perhaps the coming troubles will toughen them.

Back in 2012 at a town hall meeting, a woman asked me if I thought there were socialists in Congress. I replied by stating that there were some 75-80 socialist and communists in the US Congress. Well, that sent some folks into an apoplectic meltdown; however, it was the truth. At that time when one assessed the membership of the Congressional Progressive Caucus that assertion was pretty accurate. We must recognize that the reference "progressive" was just a slick renaming of European communists who sought to export their philosophy of governance, albeit a flawed one, to the United States.

Oh good our brilliant genius President Joe Biden has decided that uncontrolled inflation isn't enough, now he's going to crash the retirement system of the nation's retirees.

I'm sure they will just sit back and applaud





FIRST ON FOX: Attorneys general and treasurers from 24 states urged the Biden administration to drop a proposed regulation that would require retirement investment managers to prioritize climate change concerns while managing American employees' retirement portfolios.


The Department of Labor's Employee Benefits Security Administration submitted a rule that "would irrationally require fiduciaries to elevate immaterial and speculative risks in employee retirement savings investment decisions," the state leaders wrote in the letter, first provided to FOX Business. "Instead, fiduciaries must be held to their duties of prudence and loyalty by considering only the material financial or pecuniary factors of each potential investment."

Republicans have been looking ahead to November and licking their chops as they dream of obliterating the Democrats in the 2022 midterm elections — the first chance Americans will have to counter the highly irregular and controversial 2020 election and its catastrophic effects on the country and the world. But having seen near-certain victory miraculously disappeared one time too many, Republicans are also tempering their optimism. Thus, every sign that things are on track for a great political correction is welcome. On Tuesday, we got a great, big, flashing one.



John Couvillon, the founder of MC Analytics & Polling, has analyzed voter turnout in the ten states that have run primaries so far in 2022, compared it to 2018 (the last midterm election, in which Democrats won back control of the House), and found massive shifts toward Republican turnout in all but one of them.

Yumi Nu, Sports Illustrated swimsuit cover. Google it if you dare, I'm not going to post it here. Widely reported by others as weighing 160 lb, she admits to 242 lb. By any measure she is morbidly obese and yet celebrated as healthy by the retarded people who as "influencers" drive popular opinion.

I wouldn't know anything about this if not for a little blip on my radar about Jordan Peterson and Twitter. Apparently he posted "Sorry. Not beautiful" and the Twitterverse exploded.

The last several weeks in the United States have been a wild ride. Everything that could go wrong, short of a full-blown apocalyptic situation, has gone wrong. The stock market is currently in the midst of a collapse, with the Dow Jones losing nearly 5,000 points over the last 30 days. Inflation clocked in at 8.3% for April, representing another crushing blow to Americans. Of course, gas prices continue to break milestones on a daily basis.


If the Biden administration were actually purposely trying to destroy the country, what would they be doing differently? That’s a question everyone should ask themselves at this point. At every turn, on every issue, the president and his team are moving to do exactly the opposite of what has to happen to help, and they are doing so with blatant arrogance.

"The evil was not in the bread and circuses, per se, but in the willingness of the people to sell their rights as free men for full bellies and the excitement of the games which would serve to distract them from the other human hungers which bread and circuses can never appease."
