I like how this administration is recalibrating the measuring sticks on every metric of societal health so they can report numbers that sound great. All the while the nation is circling the drain. Of course the Criminals on capital Hill are making themselves rich. That was the only reason...
I am really tired of building stadiums and clubhouses for millionaires who want to charge me hundreds of dollars to go in the buildings we provided for them. I don't care how much extra beer the local taverns sell, it is not worth it.
I really don't care if she owns a gun.
I would like it if she had a brain, morals, wisdom, integrity, self discipline.
There I am being idealistic again. Who am I fooling? I would settle for her to be back under Willie Brown's desk and not anywhere near the White House.
That is a rotten thing about the fico score. It is a number based on how much debt you use for long periods of time. It is totally designed to generate money for the loan people. All I have that even shows up anymore is a credit card that I have always paid off every month, which is something...
First, Bravo for being wise enough to have the self discipline to live in a way that leaves some to save. It is tough times for that, but as you prove, it can be done. I don't know if any investment will benefit you as much as being debt free.
It is always best to owe less. Figure all the...
The Gold standard was cumbersome and demanded real discipline, but it did have it's own check and balance system. Our Congress, who is more drunk on money than any Jack Daniels drunk can be, has proven to be too undisciplined to handle the people's money. The Fed bought Congress. Since 1972...
Just a point to give perspective.
Reducing a $200,000 mortgage from 6.7% to 6.2 % changes the base 30 year mortgage from about $1310 down to $1224 before any tax or insurance escrow.
The cost of a refi would not break even for a long time. A person should probably wait until after...
I used to study all the candidates and diligently vote for the best in every category, all the way down to county and school seats. Then I watched as my candidates voted on issues. Any time their vote counted, they voted with their party. If a vote was on a lost cause legislation, they would...
The Fed was the biggest mistake of 1913.

Woodrow Wilson, who signed the private centralized system it into law with a lot of pressure from Congress had regrets...
I saw an interview with the The Federal Economist that charted the double digit inflation under jimmy carter Analyzed the inflation under biden. He used all the old metrics and found the inflation under biden is actually far higher than under Carter. If you keep changing the measuring stick...
The reason you cannot kick the idea is because it is true, you really do need an M1a in your life. A good one. A full size one. The M14 is too big, and too heavy for a carbine. You want one like the rifle team armorer would issue you. You want the whole experience. You need one.
The rough boards look period correct for the old style rifle. I did tuft and button royal blue velvet trying to get a classy royalty look, but it ended up looking like something a pimp would have. You did better.
I have been reading about just how many Doctors are now direct employees of hospitals. Some areas are pushing 90% The hospital corps have multiple layers of administration that write protocols and direct every minute of time. The protocols are written with maximizing profit through every...
