Charlottesville, VA


The racist attacks in Charlottesville, Virginia today have sparked an onslaught of arguments on social media.  When I was growing up in the 70's and 80's we were past racism like this.  We had moved on from the hate of the 50's and 60's when the KKK and Black Panthers were at their peak.  Now, here we go again.  This storm started to stir again 4 or 5 years ago.  This time with white supremacists and Black Lives Matter.  Why?  Because people started being offended by everything.  Today's protests started because some local governments are trying to destroy American heritage and memorial monuments.  I don't mean to sound like an old grandpa but these things didn't happen when I was younger.  We didn't agree with everything that happened in American history but it was still history and was to be preserved.  I'm a southern boy and proud of my heritage.  Contrary to popular belief, it wasn't the south that was racist, it was democrats.  The republicans were hated for trying to free their slaves.  Abraham Lincoln, the first republican president, was murdered for it.  The liberal agenda has always been to stir up trouble and conflict.  In the 20th Century they created the KKK and in the 21st Century they created BLM.  Somewhere in between we all started getting along and they didn't like that.  They believe that they can divide and conquer but that didn't work for them in the last election and they don't know how to handle it.  Today's protests should have never been turned into a racial conflict.  It was supposed to be about preserving American heritage.  There's absolutely no reason for this to be racial.  It's time to start punishing these hate groups with stricter laws requiring prison time.  We have to get rid of hate groups like the KKK, BLM, Skin-Heads, and Black Panthers.  Everything is about hate these days and people aren't happy unless they hate something.  Hate blacks, hate whites, hate the police, hate our heritage, hate TV shows, hate gays.  What would the world be like if we put that much effort into love?  It's time for everyone to start getting along and stop having such tender feelings.  If you don't like certain monuments, don't look at them and get over it.  If you don't like women breastfeeding, don't look and get over it.  If you don't like somebody's skin color, get over it.  Poke your eyes out and you won't know the difference.  If you don't like it because somebody has more money than you, change the way you earn money.  Don't hate the people that figured out how to earn it.  If you don't like my conservative posts, don't read material from my conservative pages.  I'm always gonna say it the way I see it.  Political correctness is what caused this mess.

Illegal Children of Illegal Parents

         I haven't written in this blog for a long time but I feel it's time because people are losing their minds.  I'd like to start with one very important question: What is your solution of what to do with the children?       The options are very limited.  The parents have broken the law and are detained.  Logically, what choices does that leave us with for the children?  Do we send them home with no parents or maybe to live with relatives in their country?  We are feeding them, housing them, and providing people to watch over them.  This is all being done with the taxpayer money of Americans and it's not even being done for Americans.  I would think people would be grateful.  The parents broke the law and got in trouble.  What happens to American kids when this happens?  They are either taken in by relatives or they become a ward of the state.  How is this different?  They ar...

The Truth About Universal Health Care

Last year, the US spent $3.2 trillion on health care. The US has roughly 323.1 million residents. That means we spent about $9904.05 per person last year. In 2016, the median household income was $59,039. There are an estimated 2.58 people per household in the US. So, that means that each household spent roughly $25,552.45 on medical expenses last year. So, that means that 43.28% of the median household income was spent on health care. That is an extreme amount. Any one who denies that isn’t paying attention. But we need to take something into account: that $9904.05 per person was not spent entirely out of pocket. Not even close. That is mostly covered by insurance companies and state and federal governments paying for the coverage. In actuality, households only account for 27.7% of spending when it came to health care in 2015. So, if that percentage stayed the same for 2016, we are looking at roughly $7,078.03 per household, or $2,743.42 per person. That means that each household on...

Why the electoral college?

There is a very good reason that we are a republic instead of a democracy.  It's the only way to make things fair for everyone.  Each state is worth a certain number of electoral votes according to how many representatives they have.  Whichever presidential candidate gets the popular vote of a specific state gets the electoral votes of that state.  This gives every state a say in who the president will be.  If we were a democracy and went with the popular vote as a whole then California, New York, and other states with the most concentrated populations would determine every president.  The people that live in less populated states might as well stay home and not vote.  Presidential candidates that understand how the system works get out and campaign for the electoral votes.  Presidential candidates that don't understand how the system works get out and campaign for the popular vote.  The popular vote overall doesn't mean a thing but the po...
