Recently, I’ve noticed so many people stating their version of the origin, the meaning, the intent and the effect of the Con-stitution of the United States of America.

For example, one starts, “Let me clarify what the ‘experiment’ (of the U.S Constitution) is”. He the stated, “When this na-tion was founded, foreign nations were ruled by kings, tsars, autocrats. Even England still had a monarchy, in its queen”.

(Question – At that time, wasn’t there a ‘King’ of England?)

The writer continued, “Our country was founded as a democracy where our leaders were elected by the people.”

(Question-Is the USA a ‘democracy’ or a Representative, Democratic Republic?)

Then, he claims, “Our laws were enacted by elected representatives of the people, to benefit the people fairly and justly.”

(Q-Are these assertions based on a study these ‘elected representatives?’ Continue reading →

Your Bad Dog!

Apparently we had another incident of a pet dog biting a neighbor.

Mostly the reactions of owners, victims and officials are inappropriate, uninformed and cruel.

Out of ignorance (or worse), you teach your dog that its job is to ‘defend’ you, your home and your property. Then, when it does it’s best to repel an ‘invader’ you’re yelling and almost choking it on the leash (or worse).

Although most owners are in denial, fact is that any dog is capable of biting.

Don’t bother to ask an owner “Does your dog bite?” In the right (wrong?) circumstances, any dog might bite (or try to).

Many experts claim that fear is the most frequent reason, but, As I See It, that’s not true. Continue reading →

Is Putin stealing Ukraine!

Do we care?

Apparently Former President Donald Trump thinks that Putin’s invasion of Ukraine is the ‘savvy’ act of a ‘genius’

As we all know, Putin has thousands of military units on the border and has already started an invasion.

Most other world leaders think it’s an act of war.

What’s disappointing in the media coverage is that they portray Putin’s actions as somehow, unusual or disruptive – while as the same time refusing to acknowledge that taking over other peoples property; their homes, their land their country, is the way that the world works, and the way that this world of ours has always worked.

The COVID Fiasco!

Will COVID 19 end the world as we know it?

As I See It, probably not.

But, then we don’t know much about it.

What is an Endemic?

When was COVID an Epidemic?

When did it change to a Pandemic,

Apparently. an ENDEMIC is a disease that’s always with us, like the flu. But it’s mostly limited to a particular region which makes the disease more predictable. For example, Malaria is considered to be an ENDEMIC in certain countries. COVID was an epidemic when it first appeared in China.

Very quickly COVID became an EPIDEMIC like yellow fever, smallpox, measles, and polio. Interestingly, West Niie Fever is a epidemic even though it’s not contagious. So an EPIDEMIC is when a health condition invades a specific area, or locality. Continue reading →

Best wishes to one and all for this New Year.
Unfortunately, we are told that COVID will continue to dominate our lives.
But, as the saying goes “Every cloud has a silver lining.” (for someone!).
Its reported that we, the taxpayers, ‘donated’ over $48 BILLION to Phizer, Moderna and others to ‘invent’ the vaccines.
Those companies then sold back to our government at about 50 times their cost.
Who got the good news?
Well, how about the many profiteering COVID BILLIONAIRES like Albert Bourla, a Greek veterinarian who is the CEO of Phizer, Stephane Bancel, at French engineer at Moderna, Alex Gorsky, a salesman who who served in the U.S. Military?
Some sources say that Bourla is worth about 33 million; and Gorsky about $111 million and Bancel a whopping 11.2 BILLION. Continue reading →

What happened to “By the people, for the people?”

Apparently, in England, back in 1384 John Wycliffe claimed to have translated the Bible including this sentence “This Bible is for the Government of the People, by the People, and for the People.”

But I don’t think that sentence was ever in the Bible. But he probably was the originator.
‘This Bible’ referred to his creation. He was saying that his version, including ‘By the people’, was inspired by whatever original text he was using.

The concept was later plagiarized by Lincoln, Theodore Parker, Benjamin Disraeli, Daniel Webster and many others..
Does it really matter?

As I See It the use/misuse of the so-called ‘Executive Order/Presidential Proclamation’ is the last straw.
Article II, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution instructs presidents to “take care that the laws are faithfully executed.”
Nowhere does it say that presidents, governors or any other politician has the authority to make laws! Continue reading →

Apparently, the Mayor and Commissioners of the Town of Lady Lake voted against a developer.

That would be a first if that developer was ‘The Villages’.

But it’s not!

The request was for 82 new residences on an 18 acre site located next to the ‘Lake Sumter Apartment Homes’ on the corner of CR 466 and Cherry Lake Road, called ‘Sumter Villas’.

This despite the fact that Lady Lake does supply water to the huge ‘Lake Sumter Apartments’ next door, and in Sumter County.

The Mayor of Lady Lake, Ruth Kussard was quoted “An important thing to remember is (that) this is in Sumter County. We would have absolutely no jurisdiction over this project. Why would we give our water to another county? We need to look out for the residents of Lady Lake.” Continue reading →

The U.S. National Debt is approaching  $30 Trillion Dollars, and increasing faster than ever before, with an additional $5 Trillion this past year, and the so-called Infrastructure Bill will cost another $2 trillion.

That adds up to about $86,000 for every person living in the USA.to pay it off.

Of course these numbers are from various ‘government agencies’, so the real numbers could be anything – But, I doubt they are any lower.

Is the National Debt. and the ever increasing Budget Deficits relevant to “we, the people?”

The ‘American Rescue Plan’ from March 2021 is not funded. and the deficit is now the highest in the history of the USA.

Of course, the Democrats blame the Republicans and the ‘Trumpites’ blame the Bidenettes’. Continue reading →

Is this the BIRTH OF DICTATORSHIP in the Good Old USA?

Apparently any President, Governor or Mayor can issue an Executive Order which cancels, voids and  over- rides the law. This goes all the way back to George Washington and every President since.

A recent example was the outgoing President, closing the border to Mexico, then the incoming President reversing that ban. And, after an invasion of over a million South Americans, he can change his mind again.

All this without any input or control by our elected representatives.

In fact, the Federal Register Act specifies that such orders need not be published if they had “no general applicability and legal effect.”, but it doesn’t say who makes that decision.

An executive order is supposed to limit the President to managing the Federal Government and should comply with laws passed by Congress and  with the Constitution. But, of course, a President can fire any government employee who doesn’t comply with his instructions, whether it’s best for the country or not. Continue reading →

Quote:-“Today, 10.2 million undocumented immigrants are living and working in communities across the United States”.
A contributor on a local website asked ”How does the United States of America benefit from granting ‘Naturalization/Citizenship’ to foreigners?For whatever reason, almost all of the respondents ranted on about the many contributions made over the years by ‘Immigrants’.

For example- “We are all immigrants!”

– “Immigrants help grow the economy by filling labor needs, purchasing goods and paying taxes. When more people work, productivity increases.”

-“As an increasing number of Americans retire in coming years, immigrants will help fill labor demand and maintain the social safety net.” Continue reading →
