Some Final Screwed Up Posts From 2025
As a great year closes out, the last week brings some really strange views from our liberal friends.
Economy
Economic Illiteracy…On Full Display, by Dylan Allman
Wealth is created through entrepreneurial coordination under uncertainty, not hoarded as a static pile waiting to be reassigned. Social Security’s problem is not a shortage of billionaires to harvest but a political design that ignores time preference, demographics, and capital accumulation.
Spinning a 4.3% jump in economy; Like Fred Flintstone, the media is saying yabut, yabut boo-hoo-hoo
The American economy grew at an annual rate of 4.3% this summer amid tariffs and the deportation of illegal aliens. Growth was 3.8% in the spring.
The Secretary of Transportation Joins the Crackdown on Illegal Aliens
There is a federal role in ensuring the safety of our nation’s roads, most obviously because of the Constitutional dictate on “regulating interstate commerce,” and the federal funding of many highways.
Tax Season Will Be A Blockbuster: “Largest Tax Refund Season Of All Time”
President Trump: “Under these cuts, many families will be saving between $11,000 and $12,000 a year, and next spring is projected to be the largest tax refund season of all time, because of tariffs, along with the just passed one big, beautiful bill.”
Invest America Act Highlights the Political Divide in the US; Democrats no longer hide the fact that they are anti-capitalist
The ideological divide between Republicans and Democrats is greater in 2025 than it was immediately before the Civil War in 1860. The recently passed Invest America Act highlights the key ideological difference in a way few would have thought possible in the 20th century.
Affordability! Affordability! Affordability!
Young Americans, middle-aged Americans, heck, virtually all Americans have a right to be angry. The policies implemented locally, statewide and nationally these last 50 years have combined to cause the “affordability” problem we are currently facing.
DC’s Fake Poverty Line: 40.8 Million People. Real US Poverty Line: 178.5 Million People
Since DC jettisoned the gold standard and imposed fiat currency in 1971? The US dollar is down in value 87%.
Why Gas Prices Are Finally Dropping: The Real Factors Behind the Relief at the Pump
Lately, something unexpected has happened: gas prices have fallen sharply, reaching some of the lowest levels since 2021. And while politicians will happily claim credit for it, the truth has nothing to do with speeches, slogans, or campaign ads. What’s happening is straightforward: the world is drowning in oil.
Democrats Gin Up “Affordability” as Their New Winning Political Narrative; Don’t believe their lies
The Democrat-media complex has glommed onto a new narrative that joins the ranks of past cliches that they’ve tried to exploit for political purposes. Their new political narrative is “affordability.”
Michigan DNR: The Agency Working Overtime to Kill Hunting (And Calling It “Science”)
If your goal were to sabotage Michigan’s hunting tradition, hollow out rural economies, frustrate every sportsman in the state, you couldn’t design a better system than the one the Michigan DNR proudly operates today.
Reverse Pyramid Scheme: Average Annual State Budget Is 37% Federal Money
An alleged bulwark against the fifty states overspending like the federal government? Has been the old saw: “The states can’t print money.”
Affordability
Democrats have found the new Golden Goose for the elections. Affordability. If they win, I would not hold my breath for prices to drop.
It Doesn’t Take a Genius to See What’s Coming (But Apparently It Takes More Than We’ve Got)
You don’t need a PhD in economics to know when the herd is about to stampede. All you need is a functioning pair of eyeballs, a basic memory of 2008, and maybe a little common sense — which in modern America qualifies as a superpower.
What Happens When a US ‘Too Big to Fail’ Meets a US Gov ‘Too Broke to Bail’
The US owes $38+ trillion. Stop right there. That amount of money is insurmountable – and un-payback-able.
The US Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in 2024 was $29.2 trillion. So the debt is 130+% of that. That alone is enough information to write off the US.
Mamdani’s Election, by George Mcclellan
Zohran Mamdani’s election was not a fluke; it was a plea for profound change, funded by CAIR and George Soros, et al. The plea was not for a return to law and order, but for politicians to listen to the people.
The Anti-Wealth Manifesto
Twenty-four years after 9/11, New York City elected a 34-year-old whose biography reads like a Marxist coming-of-age novel with a Brooklyn rewrite. Zohran Mamdani, Muslim, activist, and self-described democrat-socialist, will become mayor January 1, 2026
Trump’s 50-Year Mortgage Idea Isn’t Radical — It’s a Wake-Up Call
Many in the press have enjoyed taking pot shots at President Donald Trump for his recent recommendation that the banking community make 50 year mortgages available to prospective homeowners.
Winning the tariff war; Ford and GM praise Trump doing for them what Reagan did for Harley-Davidson
It’s happening. President Trump’s tariffs are taking hold and the attitude of Be American, Buy American is returning.
2026 Breadlines in Suburbia — How “Free” Housing Bailouts Could Pave the Road to Serfdom
We used to believe the housing market ran on freedom, work, and responsibility — the idea that if you saved and worked hard, you’d earn the keys to your own home. That myth still sells well, but the current cycle is revealing something darker: a culture conditioned to dependency.
