Winston Churchill once said, “I have taken more out of alcohol than alcohol has taken out of me.” Throughout his life, from his time a journalist to his years as the British Prime Minister, a bottle of booze was never far from Churchill’s side. The wartime leader was notorious for his love of a drink. He is said to have drunk hock, a type of wine, with breakfast. Churchill would then amp up with alcohol intake during the day. At meal times the booze flowed freely. He was known to drink both champagne and brandy at lunch and dinner. Churchill would often joke about his alcohol intake. He once told the King of Saudi Arabia that his absolute rule of life required drinking before, during, and after meals.~~

The American hangover soon to come to Washington~~will be as brutal as a hangover can be~~

We thank our Mr Morici today for his interesting and compelling note to us~~while we do not think Mr Morici goes far enough or gets close enough to the core message that the opposition to the craven gaucheries of Washington today ought adopt, Mr Morici makes a good start.

We think however that those of us in opposition ought advocate for a President who simply does these things~~upon this premise~~

That a man who has never held any office will win office in a massive landslide if~~he simply sticks to this platform alone~~

Obamacare Train Wreck Could Derail US Recovery

Monday, 30 Dec 2013 09:22 AM

The U.S. economy is gaining strength, but the Obamacare train wreck, festering problems in far away China and uncertain leadership at the Federal Reserve could derail the recovery.No small courage will be required for good sense to finally restore American prosperity.

Here are three things that could derails a full economic recovery.

Obamacare

President Barack Obama is imposing the Affordable Care Act on a justifiably unwilling citizenry.

The botched rollout is laying bare the absolute incompetence of the Washington bureaucracy, but that is not the worst of it.Many young Americans have decided that Obamacare health insurance is too expensive for their needs, and insurers face financial ruin paying claims to a less healthy population of policyholders than anticipated. They will charge higher rates in 2015 and may require a bailout.

Don’t count on Republicans winning the Senate and putting Obamacare out of its misery — the electorate may prove too cynical.

In the 2013 Virginia gubernatorial election, voters, angry about Obamacare, blamed Democrat Terry McAuliffe. Yet, he managed a narrow victory by promising free health care to 300,000 citizens by expanding Medicaid.

Lest jobs creation and growth be handicapped by an excessively expensive and bureaucratic health care system, “makers” may simply have to tell the “takers” enough is enough, march on Washington and demand radical changes.

Don’t productive Americans deserve a civil rights movement too?

China’s Banking Mess

China’s economic miracle may prove a bigger fraud than the American pre-crisis prosperity built on shabby lending and consumer spending on steroids.

Many Chinese businesses that stock Wall-Mart with unimaginably inexpensive gadgets were built on loans they can’t repay. Similarly, banks have financed provincial governments to build cities occupied by displaced farmers that have no jobs.

Beijing has raised interest rates to gradually deflate bubbles in stock and land prices, but now borrowers cannot pay those rates and banks and private lenders could face ruin.

A financial crisis won’t end the rise of China, but it would expose a great fraud: the superiority of state-directed capitalism over western democracy and free markets.

No one would be more disappointed than the collectivists at National Public Broadcasting and other liberal media, who celebrate each Chinese achievement with the enthusiasm the French cheered General Washington’s victories over the British.

The simultaneous debunking of the ACA and Chinese miracle offer conservatives the opportunity to refocus the debate in America from the shortcomings of free markets and private enterprise to helping those thrive and contribute to middle class prosperity as they did in the 1980s and 1990s.

Federal Reserve

During the financial crisis, the Federal Reserve balked at bailing out GM. The Fed could have bought the automaker’s bad debt, just as it took bad mortgages off banks’ books. Ben Bernanke pronounced assisting GM would be “industrial policy” and limited the Fed to extraordinary measures to stabilize banks and credit markets.

Obama used TARP—the Treasury fund established by President Bush and Congress—to rescue both GM and American International Group, an insurance company.

The next financial crisis well could be defined by the coincident plights of health insurance companies under Obamacare, and the sagging fortunes of American companies who invested in China’s “recession proof” economy.

New Fed Chairman Janet Yellen is well known for her very liberal political views, which not so incidentally color her economics. In a crisis, she could see the limits of Fed policy discretion very differently than Bernanke.

Using the Fed’s money printing machinery to bail out health insurance companies and Obamacare could put America on a path to inflation and corruption similar to Latin American nations during the 1970s and 80s.

It would be up to Republicans in the Senate to shut down the chamber if necessary to force hearings and compel Chairman Yellen to defend the dollar, not debase the currency.

Standing up to the failures of liberalism, when it counts, has never been politically easy—and Republicans like Speaker Boehner and Congressman Ryan are rightly the targets of Tea Party criticism.

All along, at crisis moments like these, they have capitulated. Now standing strong for America is even more difficult, but if not now then when?

The Girls of political Washington want to know~~what is all this glum talk about?~~

Communism and Capitalism are the same thing~

Both globalized communism and globalized capitalism reduce man to~~ impersonal units of production~~

Communism has global aspirations to imprison man as a unit of production who serves as a slave to the State~~

Capitalism has global aspirations to imprison man as a unit of production who serves as a slave to the Capitalist~~

By any moral measure, there is no difference~~save cosmetics~~between the two systems~~

Both systems aspire to make man a slave without a nation and both aspire to enrich small classes of rulers~~

Be they either Statist Kings or Economic Royalists~~

Both systems seek to replace God with either Gold or Gulag~~

This horror of internationalist communist and capitalist slavery must end and the key to begin bringing about that end~~

Is to be done and finished with world-wide Globalization~~in all its myriad, evil and dehumanizing manifestations~~

And to return man to his Nation State~~

In which he is most happy~~

Free of internationalist organizations~~

Internationalist Communist schemes and~~

Internationalist Capitalist greed~~

These Nation States exist for a reason~~

The people of these Nations are very proud of their countries and their cultures~~

These people are not happy at being slaves to either internationalist~~ globalized~~communism or capitalism~~

The wave of the future is a return to the Nation State~~

To Nationalism~~

Catch the WAVE~~

Which is right and just~~

To accomplish this return to the Nation State~~

 ~~The rich man ought not be taxed at all~~he ought be compelled to employ and train the poor man of his nation~~directly~~

More Countries Pass U.S. by in Education Rankings

by Mark D’Alessio

Dec 3, 2013

Republish

The 2012 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) education rankings were released today and students in the United States did not fare well. Administered by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) every three years, the rankings provide a snapshot of how students in 65 countries measure up to one another.

Among 65 countries and localities, students in the United States slipped from 11th to 21st in reading, 20th to 24th in science, and 25th to 31st in math. Among the 34 OECD countries, the U.S. ranks 17th in reading, 21st in science, and 26th in math. The inference is that U.S. student achievement remains flat, while other countries continue to improve and pass us by.

What is unique about the PISA exams is that they do not measure student knowledge, but rather the application of knowledge to solve problems in the real world. Sound familiar?

This is the basis of the Common Core State Standards —for students to become better problem solvers. Instead of rote memorization, Common Core is intended to challenge students to think critically, comprehend the ‘why’, and gain a deeper understanding of material.

The OECD overview states “students in the United States have particular weaknesses in performing mathematics tasks with higher cognitive demands, such as taking real-world situations, translating them into mathematical terms, and interpreting mathematical aspects in real-world problems. A successful implementation of the Common Core Standards would yield significant performance gains in PISA.”

For the first time, three states received state-level data on PISA; Massachusetts and Connecticut performed well on all exams whereas Florida either lagged behind or was on par with the U.S. and OECD averages.

Stephanie Banchero of the Wall Street Journal writes, “In Massachusetts, educators and policy makers credit the good showing, in part, to a 1993 effort that boosted spending and ushered in rigorous standards and achievement tests that students have to pass to graduate.”

She also provides an anecdote of an eighth grade teacher who moved from California to Boston only to be “completely blown away by what we ask students to do. He said the exams are so rigorous.”

Massachusetts provides evidence that higher standards lead to improved results for students.

In fact, the Thomas B. Fordham Institute considered Massachusetts standards to be on par with Common Core (which the state has adopted).

If elevated standards for all children have yielded high results in Massachusetts, imagine the potential for children in all of the states that have adopted the Common Core.

Editor’s note: This post was updated to note how the U.S. compared to other OECD countries.
