Atlas Shrugging

*** begin quote ***

Tailpipe exhaust emissions standards are just one example of real-world government demands that have become unreasonable – and which led VW to shrug.

Reasonable would be a requirement that 95 percent of a vehicle’s exhaust stream be free of noxious-to-health gasses. VW – and everyone else – met that standard about ten years ago.

It’s not enough.

It is never enough.

The demands always escalate.

Now 97 percent must be free of noxious-to-health gasses. And then 98 percent. When that bar is reached, they will insist upon zero emissions.

*** end quote ***

Gooferment is immoral, ineffective, and inefficient. As well as untrustworthy.

And, here’s a great demonstration of it developing a regulatory agency with a life of it’s own with a mission to crush the evil Capitalist empire.

Seems like “We, The Sheeple” better reign this nonsense in while we can still buy an auto.

Argh!

GUNS: Going into bear country unprepared; foolish

New Jersey Boy Scout leader fights off black bear with rock hammer

I can’t imagine anything more stupid than going out into the woods unprepared. 

To me a scout “leader” should be prepared to defend his troop. 

A nice 1911 45 on his hip would have been a LOT more effective than a rock hammer.

And, depending upon the ages of the scouts, they could be packing as well. 

What would out pioneering fore fathers say?

Fools and wimps, maybe.

Glad everyone survived.

TINFOILHAT: Where are the THREE San Bernadino killers?

Eyewitnesses in San Bernardino: “Three Tall White Men”
By Gary North The Tea Party Economist
December 16, 2015

*** begin quote ***

The only eyewitness identifications that I can find speak of three white men.

I looked at several published timelines of the shootings. You can, too. Search for “timeline,” “Farook,” “San Bernardino.” No victim identified the two suspects immediately after the shootings, which had ended by the time the police and firefighters arrived at 11:05 a.m. The police had no clues regarding Farook and his wife. The two were shot in a firefight at 3 p.m. They were in a black SUV . . . four hours after the attack.

Four hours. What were they doing during this time? Where were they?

 *** and ***

The post-shootout photo of the SUV shows the windshield riddled with bullet holes. These bullet holes came from in front of the SUV. The media report says this: they fired 76 rounds, while police fired 380.

Who did the counting? When? Who verified this?

How did they shoot at police from inside the SUV? For how long? How long would it take to fire 76 rounds with semi-automatics? This time includes replacing empty clips. We are supposed to believe that it took 380 rounds to kill them. If so, these are not sharpshooters.

The two are dead. So, there is no legal liability for naming them the killers. There is no “alleged” visible in the media. This ends all discussion. Of course they acted alone. Everyone knows this.

*** end quote ***

And again, all I have are questions. 

  • Where are the THREE white men?
  • How did the gunmen escape?
  • Where is the video from the crime scene? (I can’t believe that a Federal facility doesn’t have cameras all over the joint!)
  • How did they target this SUV?
  • Why wasn’t their apartment secured?
  •  Where are all the “official reports”?

I’m just asking.

Yet, I have a tin foil hat?

GOVERNACIDE: This was a revenge murder by the police

When “Rescuers” Become a Death Squad: The Killing of Michael Funk
By William Norman Grigg Pro Liberate Blog
December 16, 2015

*** begin quote ***

The only casualty of an hours-long SWAT raid and hostage situation in Neenah, Wisconsin on December 5 was Michael Funk, a disabled Vietnam veteran who was a party to a $50 million civil rights suit against the same department that killed him. Funk and three other plaintiffs filed that suit seeking compensation for harm they suffered in a SWAT raid at the same location three years earlier.

*** end quote ***

Very convenient.

Read the whole story and you’ll see that Gooferment is the problem.

I’m not sure how you can clean up this mess, but taking away the “military toys” would certainly be a first step.

Argh!

TINFOILHAT: Perhaps “affirmative action” is the new way to keep minorities down?

Attacking the Truth
By Thomas Sowell
December 15, 2015

*** begin quote ***

Mismatching students with educational institutions is a formula for needless failures. The book “Mismatch,” by Sander and Taylor is a first-rate study of the hard facts. It shows, for example, that the academic performances of black and Hispanic students rose substantially after affirmative action admissions policies were banned in the University of California system.

Instead of failing at Berkeley or UCLA, these minority students were now graduating from other campuses in the University of California system. They were graduating at a higher rate, with higher grades, and now more often in challenging fields like math, science and technology.

Do the facts not matter to those who are denouncing Justice Scalia? Does the actual fate of minority students not matter to the left, as much as their symbolic presence on a campus?

*** end quote ***

We’ve proven over and over that Gooferment is immoral, ineffective, and inefficient. As well as untrustworthy.

And, that the levers of Gooferment are controlled by corrupt, possibly evil, politicians and bureaucrats.

So what can’t affirmative action be a new strategy by the KKK to keep minorities “in their place”. Destroy their top performers so nothing can change.

An “Unintended Consequence”?

I think not. Where evil is concerned, one has to look deep into the results to find the truth. Words are meaningless; actions and results speak volumes.

In this case, I’m listening and convinced.

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: No difference between Gooferment Skrules and Gooferment prisons

The Story of Two Buses
By Gary North
December 14, 2015

*** begin quote ***

That’s how it works.

Both systems use buses to take the students to school. But the colors are different.

In prison, prisoners sell illegal drugs. Students do the same in school. In prison the food is terrible. It’s not very good in school – possibly prepared by the same food service company. In prison, there are constant inspections. Guards keep taking roll to make sure everyone is present and accounted for. Teachers do the same in school. In prison, you aren’t allowed to leave without permission. The same is true in school. In prison, bullies run the show. In school, they do, too. But there is a difference. Prison buses are white. School buses are yellow.

This is too extreme. The systems are different. Criminals are convicted in a court of law before they are sent to jail. Students, in contrast, are innocent. Some prisoners can get parole. The average term in prison for murder is under ten years. Students are put into the school system for twelve years. There is no parole.

Be thankful if you are not in one of those buses, either white or yellow.

*** end quote ***

This reminds me of “I, pencil”. 

Read the entire story and put yourself in the place of the child being forced to the Gooferment reeducation / propaganda camp!

Scary.

When the evil Commies did it, that was BAD. When “our” Gooferment does it, that’s different.

Remember the purpose of Gooferment Skrules: cannon fodder for the Army, willing morons for the factories, and useful idiots to vote for and be led by the elite! Where do the Presidents send their children? Certainly NOT to Gooferment Skrules!

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: SSN is your “national id”; your papers!

Drivers License And Social Security Number, Please
by eric • December 9, 2015 • 27 Comments

*** begin quote ***

Maybe you remember when Social Security numbers were “not to be used for purposes of identification.” It actually said so, right there on the card.

Well, it used to.

So much for that. As usual, per the frog in the ever-warming pot of water, we do not notice the change until it is too late to change anything.

Our SS number is now the de facto – and in a very real sense, the de jure – national ID. De facto, because it’s almost impossible to transact any business without one. De jure, because the law increasingly does require it for purposes of identification, even though the original law said it never would be used for such purposes.

*** and ***

In other words, the SSN is now officially being used for purposes of identification – just as they (the authors of Social Security, all those years ago) swore up and down it never would be. It was only going to be a government social insurance program, to keep old folks from shivering and starving in the winter. Never to be the basis for a nationwide cattle-cataloging system.

Surprise, surprise.

They lied.

Again.

*** end quote ***

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

I think I have to add a new element to my mantra “Gooferment is immoral, ineffective, and inefficient!”

It’s “untrustworthy”. The Gooferment, politicians, and bureaucrats all lie.

(The recent Tom Woods’ show on Hamilton demonstrated that the Federalist said what ever was needed to get the Constitution adopted and then did what the wanted any way.)

Argh!

TINFOILHAT: DNA Prove’s Obama is a Foreign Citizen and No Relation To Stanley Ann Dunham

DNA Prove’s Obama is a Foreign Citizen and No Relation To Stanley Ann Dunham
Published on Apr 23, 2014

*** begin quote ***

Obama a natural citizen of Great Briton,Will an obscure intelligence advisor in England show the way for Americans to finally get rid of the illegal presidency of Barack Hussein Obama?

Barack Obama’s long-form birth certificate has been almost universally deemed a forgery, long before Arizona sheriff Joe Arpaio’s forensic examination found it to be created digitally and never having existed in paper form. Without even a digital examination, it is obvious it is a cut-and-paste job, with at least eight different typewriter fonts.

Despite this fact, and despite Obama clearly not being a natural-born citizen—his father, Barack Obama, Sr. being a subject of the British crown as admitted by Obama—the dozens of lawsuits filed against Obama charging that he’s not a natural-born citizen, or that his birth certificate is a fake—have been summarily dismissed for invalid reasons.Americans have found themselves in a quandary: we know Obama is ineligible to be President; we know his birth certificate is fake—yet we appear to be powerless to do anything about it. But there may be a novel way that Americans can prove Obama is not a natural-born citizen: have a Special Prosecutor demand Obama submit—like Clinton did in 1998—a DNA sample to prove that his mother and father are who he says they are.

This, however, may have already been carried out—by the CIA!

According to British intelligence advisor and author of the just-published book, Spyhunter, Michael Shrimpton states that the CIA took a DNA sample of Obama prior to the 2008 election and found that the woman Obama now states is his mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, is not related to Obama—and his mother may in fact be a foreign citizen!

Shrimpton is no tinfoil hat-wearing kook: He has dozens of contacts in both the British and American intelligence agencies and has access to a huge cache of intelligence documents.
Will an obscure intelligence advisor in England show the way for Americans to finally get rid of the illegal presidency of Barack Hussein Obama?

Barack Obama has been methodically dismantling the United States, shredding the Constitution, and enslaving us to the Chinese with crushing debt; so let us hope Michael Shrimpton can show us how how we can prove Barack Obama is not a natural-born citizen and may in fact be a foreign citizen

*** end quote ***

I’m not a “birther”. I have no idea where he was born or who his parents are. 

I prefer to think of myself as a “proofer”.

There are enough questions that make one suspect that he has usurped the Presidency with the willing cooperation of the Democratic Party, some of the “elite”, and some in the Republican Party.

Telling a big enough lie often enough is the essence of political propaganda.

Who knows what the truth is. 

BHO44 may not even know himself.

The ultimate ”manchurian candidate”?

POLITICAL: The gang pretending to be the Gooferment of Finland “gives” money away?

Monday, December 14, 2015

RECEIVED AN EMAIL FROM A VERY SMART GIRL WHO SHOULD KNOW BETTER

http://qz.com/566702/finland-plans-to-give-every-citizen-a-basic-income-of-800-euros-a-month/?utm_source=parWD

We need to move to Finland!

# – # – # – # – # 

MY RESPONSE

Sorry, as a little L libertarian, I can’t be part of such oppression. Where does the gang pretending to be the Gooferment of Finland get the largess it’s going to distribute, why it’s STOLEN from the oppressed taxpayers of course. 

I’m surprised at you, my ersatz daughter, from not learning this lesson. 

If the gang pretending to be the Gooferment of Finland can steal from Peter to pay Paul, then what else can the do to poor Peter and demand of poor Paul at risk of having his basic income withheld?

# – # – # – # – # 

Argh!

It’s the same for any Gooferment “giveaway”. First it must be stolen from someone else!
