Not that the R’s are the paragons of virtue but the Left Liberal Socialists are stupid about and dangerous to the American experiment with self-government. It’s not a democracy (I.e., mob rule). Argh!

Any gooferment intervention in any market just makes the participants panic more. Have to let the losers take their lumps.

Last days for Marine were true Finest hours
Denis Hamill Tuesday, December 9, 2008, 6:49 PM
*** begin quote ***
Sometimes when old Marines die they do fade away into unmarked graves in Potter’s Field.
Such might have been the case for Gaspar Musso, USMC 925050, who fought in the Battle of Tinian in the Marianas Islands in 1944 and who died Nov. 15 at age 84 in a Brooklyn nursing home.
Enter Police Officer Susan Porcello, a PBA delegate at the 68th Precinct in Bay Ridge and one of those big-hearted New Yorkers who still make this the best city on Earth.
“No way was I going to let this brave old Marine who fought for his country in WWII get buried in Potter’s Field,” she says.

When you read this story, see if the same things come to mind?

Absurd. Need to limit the size of all “too big to fail” entities. Maybe higher taxes on bigger balance sheets?

The German Teens Who Rebelled Against Hitler
These adolescents, aged between 12 and 17, hang around late in the evening with musical instruments and young females. Since this riff raff is in large part outside the Hitler Youth and adopts a hostile attitude towards the organization, they represent a danger to other young people. – Nazi Party Report, Dusseldorf, Germany, July 1943
*** begin quote ***
The Pirates and the groups affiliated with them were labeled criminals by the courts of the era. In 2005, German officials officially relabeled them as resistance fighters and honored the surviving five members still in Cologne. The Edelweiss Pirates had fulfilled Hitler’s desire for German youths to be fearless and unwavering in the face of adversity. He just hadn’t anticipated it would be pointed in his direction.
*** end quote ***
I suspect retreating to their “safe spaces”.
We have lost so much of our “national character” by soft living. I think of what my paternal grandmother did and I doubt that I could do it. I’m sure that 99% of today’s youth surely couldn’t. She was married at 12 on the docks in Germany, traveled the Oregon trail to a better life, fighting off indians and outlaws along the way, bore 13 children—many of who didn’t survive, and had her young husband die in his late twenties leaving her penniless when she was pregnant with my father. That was a courageous woman.
I’m hard pressed to see that spirit anywhere around today.
The Hollywood, Sports, and Rap “stars” play at being a bad ass. They are just cheap imitations of the real American spirit.
Sadly.
Dona Nobis Pacem
