This is a picture of a Coral Snake that was run over by a tractor in a field in Marion County. About this time of year snakes move a little more because they like the heat. Sometimes they are looking for a new field because they have depleted they small toads, frogs and rodents. They seem to want to leave where there is no food.

He said FIGHT  FIGHT  FIGHT with a clinched fist and blood  running across his face. I was looking for fear, there was none. He was angry, discussed and had questions. Yes I’m talking about Donald J Trump! I feel the same way he does…Mad   Discussed  I have no fear, you should not when you are in the right. He was grateful that his attacker did not kill him. Many are convinced it was an act of God. I think they will find bad neglect and as a results they almost killed our candidate for President. and kill a great father shielding his family. Two other were injured and are in the hospital showing improvement.

Let’s look back they have arrested him! Searched his home! Went through his family personal belonging! His family and himself have been threatened! They charged him with things that are not criminal acts and found him guilty. The legal system works slow but now the Dem’s court cases are falling apart and prosecutor Jack Smith is not a legal prosecutor. Case closed! Now they have shot him! WHO SHOT HIM? Who’s neglect allowed him to be shot? The blame game is coming out. Continue reading

Think about what your going to do on election day. You will get all kinds of pressure to vote for a curtain person. Ask yourself how did he preform while he was in office. Was your life better for it?

What will happen if Trump wins? Oil  drilling will increase right away. the Auto Industry will bounce back, the coal industry will open back up, people will actually have jobs they can be proud of. We will have new refinery’s. We will close the border the same day. We will make a decision about the immigrant’s in this country. Most will go. The really bad ones will go to prison or go back to the prison they came out of.

If Biden wins? OH MY GOSH! More of the same. Social Security might disappear. Healthcare will suffer. Remember Socialist don’t believe the elderly should be alive. The very young and the very old is none productive. The immigrant’s are over running our country now I can’t imagine what it will be like in five months or next year. Hunter will go back to his old tricks. Continue reading

One of the loudest complaints against the FAIRtax is that it will abolish the corporate income tax. According to the D.C. elites, it seems unconscionable that billion of dollars of corporate profits would go completely untaxed. They believe that the mega-rich corporations should be obligated to “pay their fair share”. An Op-Ed in the Wall Street Journal by Phil Gramm and Mike Salon had some interesting points regarding corporate taxes:

* Americans don’t understand that corporations do not pay taxes and that corporate entities are owned by people – you and me.

* Corporate taxes are just like any other cost of doing business and when costs go up, the increase is passed onto different people in different ways – as higher prices to consumers, as lower wages to employees and/or as lower dividends to investors. Continue reading
