This should surprise no one: The Social Security Trust Fund is expected to run dry by 2032, at which point benefits will be slashed or taxes increased. Since slashing benefits is political suicide, we can expect Congress to swing into action as the perennial champion of a politically powerful voting bloc.
Like government as such, Social Security is akin to the “Too Big To Fail” mantra that powerful banks have secured for themselves. For these systemic financial institutions Dodd-Frank will not, as promised, take taxpayers off the hook for saving them. The problem is the problem will never go away, absent radical action.

“National security” has become the government’s all-purpose permission slip to behave badly.
We don’t need permission from Silicon Valley or Washington to start thinking for ourselves. The moment we stop outsourcing our minds is when we take back America!
Eight years ago in the summer of 2018, an automated monitoring system at the US government’s Social Security Agency flagged a questionable transaction and immediately forwarded it to a human worker at the agency to investigate.
WE are in a war. Man has been in that war since day one. Just studying history shows that there are people who want to make all the rules, who want to control what we eat, if we eat, what we believe, and even how long we get to exist on this mortal coil.
What’s the point in celebrating the Constitution one day a year if we permit the government to violate it the other 364?
The Senate crawls back from recess on September 14. The marble hallways will fill up. The cameras will click. And the question hanging over the chamber is the same one America has been asking all summer: Where’s Mitch?
I think it is time we discussed the constitutional rights of our children. And when I say children, I refer to the unborn and the born. It appears that too often we are subverting the rights of our children to the whims of adults, relegating them unrepresented, especially our unborn children whose voices we cannot yet hear, but we know that they can experience pain. Think about the recent bill signed into law in the State of Massachusetts by Gov. Maura Healey that allows our unborn children to be dismembered in the womb all the way up to birth.
The Democrat Party [nuthin’ “democratic” about it] has largely been the enemy of America, since 1913 with the election of Woodrow Wilson to the presidency and the passage of the Federal Reserve Bank Act and the Income Tax — and they have grown progressively worse through the FDR, LBJ, Carter, Obama and Biden years to the point that they are essentially authoritarian communists demanding the complete overthrow of our American system and the eradication of our constitutional republic and traditional America Herself, along with the virtues and principles that built Her — hiding the true horror and malicious and evil intent behind their agenda in the soft, comforting term of “the fundamental transformation of America”.
A pair of unanimous New Mexico Supreme Court orders has put a key part of Project Jupiter — a major artificial intelligence data center project in Santa Teresa — on pause, handing opponents a significant, though likely temporary, victory.
The Year of the Democratic Socialists took another twist Tuesday when the House went on the offensive to paint Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries’s (D-N.Y.) party as a dangerous force of anti-Americanism.
This article was originally written when Covid hit. We knew very little about the machinations of parts of our government that were working to enhance and spread Covid as far as possible. Now we even know a lot about our government’s hand in producing it and pushing the also dangerous vaccine on us. Some wondered why.
History is a beneficial way to learn. When schools cut back on history, society suffers. And we are suffering.
Virtually everyone agrees that our public schools are in a state of decline. Needless to say, it isn’t because we aren’t spending enough money. The federal government, our state governments and our local governments are collectively spending nearly a trillion dollars a year on public education. That is a colossal pile of money. Since 1960, spending per student has increased by 350 percent. That is even after adjusting for inflation. At this stage, we spend more money per student than any other nation on the entire planet other than Luxembourg. Anyone that believes that we can solve our education crisis by spending even more money is simply being delusional.
