More Firings, Please
Merry Labor Day! I am full of joy because most Americans no longer trust the federal government. Hooray! The Great Awakening from the Age of Stupidity (aka the last 16 years since Obama became president) has begun. Americans are tired of a federal government that lied about Covid, lied about trannies and lied about illegal …
Labor Day 2025
When I was sixteen, I didn’t get a car or anything like that. My grandmother gave me my late grandfather’s union card. She bequeathed me the legacy of the working man.
From Where Will All This Money Come?
The biggest issue in foul, fetid, fuming, foggy, filthy Philadelphia at the moment is more state funding for the Southeast Pennsylvania Transportation Authority, or SEPTA, the mass transit agency which run buses, trains, trollies, and subways in the metropolitan area. SEPTA has a projected $213 million deficit, and has instituted significant service cuts to try …

Black Lives Matter, But Not to Democrat Politicians (Part II, Minimum Wage and Union Vote Buying)
At the end of my previous article, I noted that federal legislation and active enforcement of that legislation had put paid to many active and overt forms of Democrat subjugation of minorities. By the 1930s, “subjugation,” meant something slightly different than chattel servitude. Instead of blatantly overt but now infamous policies, such as lunch counter …

Increasings percentages of the electorate believe that the purpose of the sovereign franchise is to vote themselves ever-larger portions of the public treasury.
August begins. Lies and TDS continue
No, the Rose Garden was not paved over. Democrats are off to another bad start in August.

3% growth? Not bad, Donald, not bad
The GDP fell by 0.5% in the first quarter which featured the last 20 days of Biden auto penning government policy and pardons. But we learned on Wednesday that the GDP rose 3% in the second quarter, the first full quarter with our favorite president back.
