Good Morning Morons today is Sunday, December 23, 2018. On this day in 1913 the Federal Reserve Act was signed into law by President Woodrow Wilson, creating the Federal Reserve System. This was, and still is a huge mistake, but Hell it was passed when the communists had a majority in both houses and a communist President. But it has been 100 years or more and Republicans have never made an effort to undo this POS.

OH governor Katshit has vetoed a bill passed by the Republican legislature which had an easing of gun regulations and funding for first responders because at the last minute the legislature added a big pay raise for themselves. He also was against easing OH's gun regulations. I somehow doubt he gave a shit about the pay raise.

Two commies on the judicial committee are opposed to the nomination of a Trump judge because he is a member of the Knights of Columbus, a Catholic religious leaning organization that does charitable works. I somehow doubt this is their real reason. If Trump were to somehow nominate Jesus for a judgeship these commies would oppose him.

Willowed.
that assumes we have "global warming". Posted by: Vic at December 23, 2018 05:43 AM (mpXpK) Some of use are old enough to remember when our teachers in the 1970s told us of the impending Ice Age. They also told us that the US was now metric so get used to it. A year or so later they stopped talking about metric an the "next ice age". But like normals, and unlike now, they did not try to force global warming on us either, they let it die. Maybe global warming is a thing, the issue has become so politicized that it is almost impossible to hear any proponent without a lot of skepticism. These people politicized the issue and marginalized themselves. If man is truly causing a catostrophe, I would think some smart people with no agenda would be proving this to all. I think it was Rush who first brought up the idea of watermelons. Watermelons are leftists who are green on the outside and red on the inside. The idea is that when the Soviet Union fell, pinko Americans who hated capitalism needed a new schtick. They were reds, but they cloaked their anti capitalism in green. If the Commies could not take down America, the greenies could by saying capitalism is destroying the earth. I am open to proof that global warming is real and man is causing it by building things. But the issue needs to be de politicized, the fake news has to end and people need to bring verifiable facts to the table without other agendas.

With prevailing wages you have to hire the best person for the project to get it done on time. So you hire someone already working. Private enterprise usually will not replace this person unless it is 100% critical. And they will never hire a new person, maybe just move someone up! Even B Hussein admitted that there were no new shovel ready jobs. Posted by: rhennigantx at December 23, 2018 06:18 AM (JFO2v) 42

The lowest gas price I saw yesterday was $1.79 here on the MS coast, but based on crude prices over the last week I'm expecting it go quite a bit lower -- During the last crude crash a few years ago, it got down to the mid $1.50s.

But it has been years since I went to the mall here over in the "city". I used to go to the bookstore there quite often, but since I went Kindle I haven't been to a book store anywhere.

This is hypothetical-ish.
Let's say I have a $10 coupon and it's good till March, we'll say. I go to the store, buy a $30 gift, use my $10 coupon, give them $20 and go on my merry little way. A couple days later, I find out my aunt already has says item I bought. I take the item back, and they give me back...$20. I guess my question/argument is: isn't the purpose of a return to make you equal to where you were before you purchased the item? Well, before I purchased the item, I had a $10 coupon to use, and now I don't. I can understand them not wanting to give $30 to someone who spent $20 BUT. Wouldn't the ideal thing to do be refund $20 and give them another $10 coupon to use? And, if that's not possible, then refunding $30 is the other option. I am handing them back a $30 item, they should hand me $30. Honestly, they are just shooting themselves in the foot, because with that $10 coupon, I would have come back to their store and bought something else. And, now I won't. Am I being reasonable/making sense? Posted by: TickledPink at December 23, 2018 06:34 AM (VpnSm) 68

True of oil, gold, and pretty much all commodities. I remember seeing turned off oil rigs in Texas back in the day. There was oil there and the rigs were there, but if the price was not right, they just turned them off, it wasn't worth the effort. Same with gold. There are gold mines that only pay off if the price is right.

I was in an industry dependent on a product produced in the 94% efficiency range. Small fluctuations in supply created huge price swings. Oil refining is a similar industry. A little too much and the price plummets, a little shortfall and the price skyrockets. They can't just throw a switch on an oil refinery and shut it down for a few weeks. Their only tool seems to be price. Was watching a presentation about electric grid problems in Australia. An aluminum plant lost power for three hours and was destroyed. I guess stuff cooled down and funged it all up. Posted by: Newest Nic at December 23, 2018 06:40 AM (jYje5) 76

Australian Workers Union Victorian vice president Ben Davis said the power outage was "unprecedented".

Oil refining is a similar industry. A little too much and the price plummets, a little shortfall and the price skyrockets. They can't just throw a switch on an oil refinery and shut it down for a few weeks. Their only tool seems to be price.
we have something like 56 diff regional blends. Go to a single regular and cost could drop another 10% on efficiency. Posted by: rhennigantx at December 23, 2018 06:48 AM (JFO2v) 86
"Their need for power is such that they have to be constantly running, they have to keep the liquid alumina hot.
"So when the power goes off, that's incredibly serious." I worked at a candy factory. If the power went out for more then 10 minutes, the mass mix would start cooling and everything would have to be dismantled to clean it out. That would take about 2 hours. They worked with the power company and got another line installed. The worst that would happen is there would be about a 2 second outage. Power would switch over and then the computers for the lines would need to be restarted.

The stock market is in retreat, oil prices are sitting at bargain basement prices, and inflation is nominal.
It's like the Titanic seeing an iceberg straight ahead and hitting the throttle. Posted by: Newest Nic at December 23, 2018 06:10 AM --- Some economists are saying there is the possibility of deflation due to falling energy prices. I think it is more likely that the Fed is trying to block the roaring economy that Trump made possible with his massive deregulation efforts. Simply can't allow the plebs to see that Trump actually knows what to do to kick start the economy so they have to reign it in and destroy his progress.

We finally hit 1.99 here in the middle of fly over country. I was worried that the IRS would lower their mileage rates but was pleasantly surprised to see they actually went to .58 per mileage. Posted by: Molly k. at December 23, 2018 06:43 AM (TLDbD) The IRS rate for a car is based on the average overall cost of the car over a ten year period, gas, insurance, maintenance, etc. which according to AAA is close to 76 cents per mile for a medium size car.

Posted by: The Great White Scotsman at December 23, 2018 06:54 AM As John 'suspend my campaign' McCain proved, recession in the middle of a presidential campaign is not a good thing. So perhaps having one now and getting it over with decreases the odds of it occurring again one and a half years from now. There's probably some historical 'average' months between them and I'm sure it's a helluva lot more then 24 months.

'If you have an average size house with the roof completely covered with solar panels it will '
You'd have to cover a couple of acres with panels to be able to run your house, and a 2000 sq ft building to hold enough batteries to get you thru the night. Solar farms are a big scam in Georgia. They are covering thousands of acres with panels (probably subsidized) that will need constant maintenenace and replacement, and tie-in to the grid.

Most of the gov workers are not even being furloughed. These shutdowns are always a lie. They close a few departments and send a few people home, making sure the MFM is on hand with cameras to show "poor workers' leaving. When in fact it is only a small percentage of workers getting another free paid vacation. And Obama was the worst, closed the Washington Mall just so it would inconvenience a few tourists who had spent money to visit Washington and the cameras would be handy.

Good morning, horde.
I just watched the tsunami video in the sidebar. Yikes. The death toll is up to 222 now, according to an article I found at Drudge. Some of the band members were killed. https://apnews.com/e91d55a6b39542c0896c5f31a0098870 I have some photos of Anak Krakatau I found a couple years ago as desktop wallpaper.

One other point about solar.... The average asphalt shingle roof lasts 15 to 20 years, so even with a 25 year warranty on panel power output, at some point your entire system will have to be ripped out to replace your roof. Posted by: Sticky Wicket at December 23, 2018 08:06 AM (gttv9) When all of this solar panel shit started the published life expectancy of a solar panel was 10 years. If you lived on the best location in the country with the highest electricity costs you were lucky to recoup their cost before they failed.

Two commies on the judicial committee are opposed to the nomination of a Trump judge because he is a member of the Knights of Columbus, a Catholic religious leaning organization that does charitable works.

Oh, and each year, securing and setting up a Christmas tree. Yeah, the Knights of Columbus are flat out deviants, destroying the core of society, the antithesis of the Constitution.

67 This is hypothetical-ish.
Let's say I have a $10 coupon and it's good till March, we'll say. I go to the store, buy a $30 gift, use my $10 coupon, give them $20 and go on my merry little way. A couple days later, I find out my aunt already has says item I bought. I take the item back, and they give me back...$20. I guess my question/argument is: isn't the purpose of a return to make you equal to where you were before you purchased the item? Well, before I purchased the item, I had a $10 coupon to use, and now I don't. I can understand them not wanting to give $30 to someone who spent $20 BUT. Wouldn't the ideal thing to do be refund $20 and give them another $10 coupon to use? And, if that's not possible, then refunding $30 is the other option. I am handing them back a $30 item, they should hand me $30. Honestly, they are just shooting themselves in the foot, because with that $10 coupon, I would have come back to their store and bought something else. And, now I won't. Am I being reasonable/making sense? Posted by: TickledPink at December 23, 2018 06:34 AM (VpnSm) Forget it. You do like I did. I announced one Christmas that I didn't want gifts from anyone the next Christmas. And in return, don't expect any from me. They agreed.
