Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Proposes Massive Tax Hike on the Wealthy

Saturday, January 5, 2019

The 29-year old congresswoman, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who just took office says tax rates for the nation’s wealthiest should increase to as much 70 percent to fund a new initiative to combat climate change — even if that means she’s labeled a “radical.” “If that’s what radical means, call me a radical,” she said in an interview with CBS’ “60 Minutes” that will air in full on Sunday. “That

This is What Socialism Looks Like: Venezuela Oil Exports Slump to a 28-Year Low

Saturday, January 5, 2019

Nicolas Maduro Venezuela is home to the world’s biggest crude reserves, but the country exported only 1.245 million barrels a day last year, the lowest since 1990. This is what happens when a dictator runs a sector of the economy in socialist style and launches an immediate money grab.

A doctor who tweeted that she would ‘purposely give all the Jews the wrong meds’ has been found to have been posting anti-Semitic messages on social media for years.

Dr Lara Kollab, 27, a former resident at The Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio, wrote in now-deleted posts that she hoped ‘Allah will kill the Jews’ and referred to Jewish people as ‘dogs’.

The Cleveland Clinic has since condemned Dr Kollab, who retains her medical license, and confirmed that she is no longer working at the hospital.

Clearly, this is unacceptable in the USA.

Not that she can NOT have racist views.  But she can’t overtly threaten to harm people.

For that reason alone, she should lose her medical license.

She can always do pharma sales calling on only Jewish doctors?

That sounds like a plan.

LIBERTARIAN: Counter-attack against Internet Suppression

Censorship vs. Suppression
By  eric  – January 1, 2019

*** begin quote ***

Libertarians – me included – have wrestled long and hard with this one: Is it censorship when private entities do it?

No – not in a legal sense. Because these private entities do not have the power to forbidpublication, per se.

But they do have the power to suppress (and even to punish) publication when the entities at issue effectively control the means of publication – and so it amounts to the same thing as censorship.

*** and ***

There is no Internet Samizdat – nor can there be. There is just the Internet, which is the only known means for the dissemination of information in the digital age.

There is also the fiction that the handful of entities which effectively control it and all the critical peripherals – which includes both “social media” and online advertising and online payment mechanisms-  are private and so we can’t – as Libertarians – object to their machinations.

Nonsense.

They may be privately owned, but so is Tesla – and it is very Libertarian to object to the rent-seeking and crony-capitalism of Tesla. Because Tesla – and the online entities under discussion – leverage the government for their private gain.

Where, after all, did the Internet come from? Was it the privately-funded creation of Goo-gul? Or did Goo-gul, et al, exploit what the taxpayers had been forced to finance the development of?

At the least, we are due some kind of refund.

What’s happened is even more obnoxious than what Jefferson wrote about being forced to provide money for the distribution of opinions one finds repellent – because it’s not just that. One is also precluded even from using one’s own money – whatever’s left, after all the tiers of government theft – to publish opinion contrary to the opinions one finds repellent.

Lech Walesa, phone home.

*** end quote ***

I constantly wonder why a grassroots (libertarian?) movement has not formed behind the idea of using the Internet Giants reliance on “safe harbor” to their detriment. They all rely on the “safe harbor” protection from copyright infringement. But, now, they are exercising “editorial control” and so probably can be held accountable for “infringement”.

Ex-Marlins President Brags About Fleecing Fans, Taxpayers in $1.2 Billion Team Sale
JERRY IANNELLI | DECEMBER 18, 2018 | 1:18PM

*** begin quote ***

At this point, every single person who worked for the Miami Marlins when Jeffrey Loria owned the team should be under strict FBI surveillance. Robert Mueller should be stalking these people. They keep revealing themselves to be vampires.

Case in point: Loria’s former team president, David Samson, hopped onto a stage at ESPN personality Dan Le Batard’s birthday party over the weekend and bragged about fleecing Miami taxpayers and sports fans after Loria sold the team for literally a billion dollars. Samson then flipped off the crowd. Had there not been security, he might have been guillotined, though Le Batard and Samson now claim that this was some sort of planned “skit.” If true, the skit sucked.

When will “We, The Sheeple” realize that the politicians and bureaucrats do NOT have the Taxpayers’ best interests at heart.

Surely, there must be some way to “claw back” these ill-gotten Crony Capitalist “gains”.

POLITICAL: DJT45 needs hire Vin to target Spygate

Will there never be a counterattack?
Vin Suprynowicz

*** begin quote ***

Is that counterintuitive — that the GOP leadership would WANT to lose the majority? Not at all.

The ongoing stunt of these one-trick ponies for 30 years now is to win election by vowing to “secure the border,” clean up vote fraud (Did you know surplus Massachusetts Democrats can vote in swing-state New Hampshire — where they have a far better chance of shifting some electoral votes — by simply driving across the state line and saying “I plan to move up here next year”?); halt illegal immigration, repeal socialized medicine (“Obamacare”) and replace it with a free-market system providing better incentives for doctors and other “health care providers,” etc.

Then they get to Washington and say “Of COURSE we’d like to deliver on those promises, but the darned Democrats won’t LET us.”

This works if you’re in the minority, or at least if you don‘t control the House, the Senate, AND the presidency.

*** and ***

THE POTENTIAL TARGETS:

1) Spygate. Listen to former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino lay it all out succinctly and in brief. (He’s even capable of making it funny): https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/11/23/dan-bongino-presentation-of-spygate

2) Vote fraud: When states including California and Nevada are now issuing drivers licenses to illegals, and AUTOMATICALLY REGISTERING THEM TO VOTE when they apply for those licenses, we need sting operations and massive busts not just of the illegal voters, but of the Department of Motor Vehicle employees who are illegally registering them.

3) THE ‘SOCIAL MEDIA’ GIANTS . . . . . . mostly based in Silicon Valley in Commiefornia, don’t even seem to CARE that we all know they’ve started censoring conservative voices on the Internet while allowing those who gleefully call for Trump’s assassination, who call Ivanka a “cunt” and Barron Trump “retarded,” urging that said blameless youth be “locked up in a cell with a male rapist named Bubba” are allowed to keep gleefully churning out their hate.

4) The Media  — Furthermore, the FCC (and FTC and SEC, if necessary) could be instructed to specifically ENCOURAGE AND FACILITATE mergers which would tend to create conservative alternative news networks with greater reach, rather than blocking them, until the percentage of conservative, Trump-endorsing networks reaches 40 percent.

5) The Border  — The President has Constitutional power to send the U.S. military to the border to protect this nation from invasion; no further act of Congress needed.

6) The traitors — Former Secretary of State John Kerry traveled to Iran to advise our enemies on how to avoid or circumvent President Trump’s anti-nuclear embargo.

7) Has anyone at the IRS even looked to see if the Clinton Foundation has violated the terms and restrictions of its tax-exempt, nonprofit charter?

Sounds like DJT45 needs hire Vin to put some “fire” down on the left.

GOVERNACIDE: Why are less than 1 percent of adverse vaccine reactions are reported to VAERS

Manufactured Crisis — HPV, Hype and Horror
By Joseph Mercola — Mercola.com
December 10, 2018

*** begin quote ***

The HPV vaccine Gardasil was granted European license in February 2006,1 followed by U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval that same year in June.2 Gardasil was controversial in the U.S. from the beginning, with vaccine safety activists questioning the quality of the clinical trials used to fast track the vaccine to licensure.3 Merck, which manufactures and distributes the HPV vaccine Gardasil, has worked with a global health group called PATH4 to get the vaccine approved worldwide.

Lauded as a silver bullet against cervical cancer, the vaccine has since wrought havoc on the lives of young girls across the world.

“Manufactured Crisis — HPV, Hype and Horror,” a film by The Alliance for Natural Health, delves into the all too often ignored dark side of this unnecessary vaccine, interviewing families whose lives have been forever altered after their young daughters suffered life-threatening or lethal side effects following Gardasil vaccination. Says Barbara Loe Fisher, president and cofounder of the National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC):

“The tragic story of Gardasil vaccine is one that is playing out in real time in the homes of trusting parents, who thought they were doing the right thing to try to make their daughters ‘one less,’ and in the 21st century cyberspace forum of public opinion as well as on television.”

*** and ***

Considering the U.S. government’s financial interest in the sale of HPV vaccine, this is about as clear a conflict of interest as you can get, yet Markowitz was allowed to be part of the team that designed the scope and parameters of the review.

Risk Benefit Analysis

In the film, Norma Erickson, president of Sanevax, Inc., an “international HPV vaccine information clearinghouse” in Troy, Montana, points out that while the cervical cancer rate in the U.S. is 12 per 100,000, by Merck’s own admission, Gardasil may cause 2,300 serious adverse events per 100,000. 

Is it really reasonable to risk 2,300 serious adverse events — which includes sudden death — in the hopes of preventing 12 cases of cervical cancer out of 100,000?

Trial data from Merck also shows that Gardasil vaccinations may actually increase your risk of cervical cancer by 44.6 percent if you have been exposed to HPV strains 16 or 18 prior to vaccination.20 (The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has made this document inaccessible, but we’ve saved a copy of it for posterity.)

Professor Marcos Mazzuka, a pediatrician specializing in vaccine injuries in Madrid, Spain, agrees that the HPV vaccine is not safe, and is not worth the risk, as side effects are not limited to rash or fever but are severe and long-lasting.

I don’t  believe that I am an anti-vaxxer.

I don’t like the Gooferment because it’s bought and paid for by special interests.  Its politicians and bureaucrats are not “our friends”, “our protectors”, or anything but knaves and fools.  The sooner “We, The Sheeple” recognize this the better.

I would like to see:

  • The FDA made an advisory agency
  • Vaccines immunity from legal liability repealed
  • Mandatory reporting

Time to put the Gooferment in its place.

VETERANS: “Let There Be Light” The Documentary The Army Suppressed

Tuesday, December 4, 2018

Authored by Chris Calton via The Mises Institute, At the end of the second World War, filmmaker John Huston got a commission from the US Army to produce a documentary of new treatments for psychiatric casualties of the war. This occurred when experimental treatments such as hypnosis or injections of sodium pentothal were being introduced into psychiatric therapy.
