I hope you’re feeling better now.

Countries with a greater amount of economic freedom have higher standards of living and higher quality of life.

In accordance with this, as our country drifts into socialism, things fall increasingly apart. The standard of living of the middle class is lower today than it was in 1999. During the 1990s, the leading politicians on the left said “the era of big government is over.” Not any more. The leading politicians on the left are neo-Marxist, green socialists.

For a time, the other side was muted because the Berlin Wall fell when the communist countries collapsed. But, as that demonstration of the superiority of economic freedom fades into the past, people are again attracted to the allure of big government.

Communists lie about everything. Why? Because they know the facts are against them. Communists even deny that objective reality exists. They claim that males and females are indistinguishable; and, that 2 + 2 doesn’t have to equal 4.

Philosophically, there are two great traditions: (1) Aristotle and the tradition of basing science on observation; and (2) Plato and the tradition of denying what is observed and relying instead on one’s imagination. The first lives in the real world. The second in a fantasy world (which they call the world of ideas).

Since 1999 the biggest threat to our economy has been globalism, or Bushie economics. Which ever you prefer. People like you make me physically ill so why not go buy some international stocks and leave us PATRIOTS alone.

God bless nationalsm.

God bless Trump.

YOU CAN BE A GLOBALIST or a PATRIOT but you cannot be both.
