LIBERTY: A lot of establishment type hate Trump — a reverse recommendation?
Tuesday, April 26, 2016https://www.lewrockwell.com/podcast/political-theater-air/
Political Theater on the AirLew Rockwell and Alex Jones on Trump, Hillary, and everything else.
April 20, 2016
# – # – # – # – #
I used to think that Alex Jones was profiting on the mental illness of Conspiracy Theories.
Now I am not so sure.
Lew and Alex brought up a great point.
Trump may be a closet libertarian. Operative words “may be”. They gave the following evidence: (1) He wants to avoid war with Russia; (2) He seems to think NATO is obsolete; and (3) he’s has a lot of non-libertarian enemies.
I thought the third was most powerful.
The guy sure has the “Establishment” shorts in a knot.
Have to go back to the Republican Rockefeller Establishment stealing the nomination from “Mr. Republican” Bob Taft and give it to the Rockefeller Republican Dwight Eisenhower.
Argh!
Perhaps the “theft” of this nomination would be a good thing to wake up “We, The Sheeple”?

To better protect your United MileagePlus® account, we’ll soon no longer allow you to use your PIN to sign in. Instead you’ll need to have security questions and a strong password.
If you haven’t done so already, please sign in to your account today. You’ll be asked to complete these steps:
For now, you will still need your PIN when you call the United® Customer Contact Center, so don’t lose track of that just yet.
Thank you for being a MileagePlus member and for taking the time to update your account.

I guess that someone has hacked United Airlines.
Didn’t hear about this in the media.

POLITICAL: Negative rights are the only rights we have?
Sunday, April 24, 2016https://www.lewrockwell.com/2016/04/walter-e-williams/rights-vs-wishes/
Rights Versus Wishes
By Walter E. Williams
April 20, 2016
*** begin quote ***
Here is what presidential aspirant Sen. Bernie Sanders said: “I believe that health care is a right of all people.” President Barack Obama declared that health care “should be a right for every American.” The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops: “Every person has a right to adequate health care.” President Franklin D. Roosevelt, in his January 1944 message to Congress, called for “the right to adequate medical care and the opportunity to achieve and enjoy good health.” And it is not just a health care right that people claim. There are rights to decent housing, good food, and a decent job, and for senior citizens, there’s a right to prescription drugs. In a free and moral society, do people have these rights? Let’s look at it.
*** end quote ***
So how is that “right” to “affordable care” working out for you?
I have no obligation to pay for anyone else’s “stuff”.
Argh!
A “positive” right to something implies that someone must provide it.
In nature, everything has a cost. Even “free health care”.

SURVIVAL: This super experienced guy goes … and nearly dies!
Saturday, April 23, 2016TV crew saves castaway after spotting him on deserted island: ‘He was ready to die’
Inside Edition JOHANNA LI
Apr 19th 2016 5:44AM
*** begin quote ***
Shearman said that the man, whom they later learned was named Tremine, was out fishing one day when he decided to venture off his boat in search of better oysters. He was told that the Sir Edward Pellew Group of Islands was only inhabited by a small aboriginal group, and would be a more interesting area to fish.
Tremine, a roofer from Borroloola in northern Australia, is an experienced hobby fisherman and often takes short camping or fishing trips. But he didn’t anticipate the conditions that day. Shearman said Tremine told him that he left his boat and took a wrong turn after a couple hours of digging for oysters.
*** end quote ***
After 60 hours without water, this guy was a mess and near death.
How many of the ‘survival rules’ did he break!
Maybe they should be codified so that we “experts” don’t fall afoul of them?
First rule, is remember “Murphy’s Law”. And, it’s like the Law of Gravity. It’s always operational.
It’s a dangerous world out there and puny naked humans shouldn’t forget that ONE FACT!
He was almost a “Darwin Award” nominee; let’s not have others!

Ep. 642 The Israel Lobby: What It Does and How It Works
18th April 2016
Tom Woods
*** begin quote ***
We are supposed to believe that the network of organizations promoting a particular view of Israel and the U.S. relationship with that country doesn’t exist, and that anyone who says it does is a crank and a hater. Yet it’s precisely the network of organizations that would call such a person a hater that we’re talking about in the first pace. Grant Smith joins me for a rational discussion of this inexplicably sensitive issue.

Big Israel: How Israel’s Lobby Moves America
*** end quote ***
Basically, I don’t understand anyone who doesn’t have sympathy for Israel after the Shoah considering American actions before it (i.e., rejection of the Saint Louis; the anti-semitism of the US State Department; the failure of the executive to order the US Army Air Corp to stop the trains; the failure to inform the American people of what known facts when it was happening).
That being said, not all the Israeli and USA interests are ALWAYS aligned.
It was an eye opening podcast that exposes how much the Israeli Gooferment manipulates the USA Gooferment to its benefit.
Argh!
Entirely too much Gooferment is my bottom line.

INSPIRATIONAL: Ev’s cardiologist wrote a book
Thursday, April 21, 2016Alone in the World: Stories of Complex Human Relationships
“My world crumbled, a stable, happy and peaceful life disintegrated in to millions of pieces- from a man I became a patient”. These were the words of one of my patients who suffered an unexpected heart attack.
The pain and sadness hidden in these words permeated into the core of my consciousness and my professional evolution- from a physician to a healer began. The Hippocratic Oath is taken by all physicians. In the original form, it requires a new physician to swear by a number of healing gods. The concept of healing is deeply embedded in the Hippocratic Oath.
This book reflects my journey to help patients heal from the ravages of disease.
About the Author
Ashok Kumar, M.D., is a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology. He is an Assistant Clinical Professor of Medicine at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital and a clinical cardiologist at Saint Peter’s University Hospital in New Brunswick, New Jersey. He lives with his wife and is in private practice with his daughter who is also a cardiologist.

MONEY: TDBANK launches an expensive and slow PayPal competitor

Interesting?
Paypal is instantaneous in its P2P service and free.
So why would you come to market with a competitive service that is slow and costly? (1 day xfer for $7 and 3 day for $1)
Makes NO economic sense.
And how is that TRULY putting your Customer FIRST?
TD would have been better striking an affinity deal with PayPal.
If you want to try it, you can send me money … free! https://paypal.me/reinkefj
Reminds me of when Soupy Sales
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soupy_Sales
*** begin quote ***
On January 1, 1965, miffed at having to work on the holiday, Sales ended his live broadcast by encouraging his young viewers to tiptoe into their still-sleeping parents’ bedrooms and remove those “funny green pieces of paper with pictures of U.S. Presidents” from their pants and pocketbooks. “Put them in an envelope and mail them to me”, Soupy instructed the children. “And I’ll send you a postcard from Puerto Rico!” [20] Several days later, a chagrined Soupy announced that money (mostly Monopoly money[21]) was unexpectedly being received in the mail. He explained that he had been joking and announced that the contributions would be donated to charity. As parents’ complaints increased, WNEW’s management felt compelled to suspend Sales for two weeks. Young viewers picketed Channel 5. The uproar surrounding Sales’ suspension increased his popularity. Sales described the incident in his 2001 autobiography Soupy Sez! My Life and Zany Times.
*** end quote ***
Laugh!
My line would be “I’ll send you a post card from Aruba!”
