The Morning Rant: Minimalist Edition
No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.
Seems pretty clear, and it meshes rather nicely with America's cultural proclivity for success based on nothing other than hard work and a good idea. So how have we devolved from that laudable attitude to this pathetic display of unearned privilege? Jasmine Crockett accused of 'abusing her power' at airport boarding gate
Congress has morphed from a body of citizens representing their neighbors, to a group of entitled elitists whose seats seem more like sinecures than vital parts of a constitutional republic. Jasmine Crockett, an execrable example of the Peter Principle may not even be the worst of our congressmen! There are innumerable news stories of haughty congressmen behaving more like 18th century French or Russian noblemen than members of the body politic in a freedom-loving republic. Their perks are countless, and paid for by you and me. A fat base salary, obscene budgets for staff and travel, essentially no restrictions on insider trading that would get normies sent to prison, preferential treatment by corporations, a damned state-of-the-art gym (for free), free parking, and on and on. But that isn't enough for these entitled c*nts. They want us to bend the knee, and demand special treatment to separate themselves from the mere citizens they "represent." I know that I am shoveling sh*t against the tide when I complain about them, but it is important to remember that they work for us, that the position is what is important, and not the person who temporarily holds that position. In a perfect world, no public building would be named for politicians. No politician would be entitled to any accommodation that a typical American citizen cannot get. In fact, they should be held to a higher standard, because they supposedly defend us from the exact sort of government that recognizes unearned privilege! I was standing around in an airport a few days ago, waiting to board a plane. The man in front of me had prosthetic arms (both of them!) and a prosthetic leg. He fumbled around for his passport for a bit (hooks and pockets don't work well together), but managed to navigate the process without help from airport police, the airline, or anyone else. If he can do it alone, then some able-bodied half-wit who fancies herself the Queen of Dallas can also be held to the same standard. [Crossposted at CutJibNewsletter and X/Twitter] And the Apple and Spotify feeds for CJN's podcast should be working!🚨🚨🚨 SPOTTED: Jasmine Crockett with a taxpayer-funded police escort, cutting everyone in line — even making DISABLED people wait.

It is high time for me to put an end to your sitting in this place, which you have dishonored by your contempt of all virtue, and defiled by your practice of every vice.
Ye are a factious crew, and enemies to all good government. Ye are a pack of mercenary wretches, and would like Esau sell your country for a mess of pottage, and like Judas betray your God for a few pieces of money.
Is there a single virtue now remaining amongst you? Is there one vice you do not possess? Ye have no more religion than my horse. Gold is your God. Which of you have not bartered your conscience for bribes? Is there a man amongst you that has the least care for the good of the Commonwealth?
Ye sordid prostitutes have you not defiled this sacred place, and turned the Lord's temple into a den of thieves, by your immoral principles and wicked practices?
Ye are grown intolerably odious to the whole nation. You were deputed here by the people to get grievances redressed, are yourselves become the greatest grievance.

I'm becoming increasingly convinced that step 1 in heading off the looming oligarchy will be to increase the number of representatives. There should be one representative per at least 30,000 (which the Constitution specifies) but at *most* one per every 75,000. Otherwise power becomes too concentrated.
Step 2 will be to increase the number of Senators to maintain the balance in the electoral college and to return to state legislatures selecting at least three of them.
Step 3 will be to restrict Congress to one aide per member who remains in the home district.
This will be the likely topic of my dissertation.

About a year ago, first-hand report:
Plane boards, everyone suddenly has to wait.
Pelosi, police escort to the tarmac, they roll out the stairs and she boards 1st class.
Not just skipping the line--skipping the whole bullshit security theater they subject all of us to, skip security, skip the line and make everyone else wait.
Also:
Note Michelle Obama casually dropping that she has a police escort for her 4 SUV motorcade as she is driven around LA.

"No, but I know WHAT you are."
"Oh yeah, and what is that?"
"Look in the mirror and see."
"That's RACIST!"
"Is it?"

There is an argument that the government should hire people to offset improvements in technology closing out other jobs.
But the bigger problem is that the people we've hired for these jobs don't spend their time picking up litter or something innocuous. They spend their time keeping normal people from being able to be productive.

One of the problems that comes out of managed democracy is that the elites can claim powers that the older monarchy wouldn't dare. And they can claim that it is right and good because "the people voted for it" irrespective of how much fraud, bribery, and lies got them to that position.
And I am reminded of a quote from the revolutionary era - "Which is better - to be ruled by one tyrant three thousand miles away or by three thousand tyrants one mile away?"
Not that I am disparaging the revolution...we had a good run. But we have become worse off now then we were then.

Lord put me in the service industry for just one say so I can answer a Crockett with the following:

"No, but I know WHAT you are."
"Oh yeah, and what is that?"
"Look in the mirror and see."
"That's RACIST!"

I've said nice things about Adam Smith (D), Congressman from Washington's 9th District in the past. Not many, but a few. One of them is that I have seen him several times at the airport in either Seattle or at Reagan and he is always alone, and keeps to himself. Same with the late Jennifer Dunn (R), about whom Crockett isn't worthy to even water the flowers on her grave.

Well, first off, pull taxpayer funded security for all but the President, VP and cabinet (not appointees.) Pull it for Congress, including the leadership positions too.
Make them pay for their own security.
And if airports, theaters, restaurants... whatever want to cater to these politician's whims then that's on them.
But I sure as shit shouldn't be paying for their insecurities about being in public with the unwashed masses.

I'm becoming increasingly convinced that step 1 in heading off the looming oligarchy will be to increase the number of representatives.
1. Members of Congress shall be in DC only during designated voting times. All other business shall be conducted remotely.
2. One week, and only one week, per month shall be designated for voting and members shall be present for that time to vote in person.
3. No bill may be voted on unless it has been published, in it's final form, for not less than 5 business days prior to the vote.
4. All investments for members of Congress, and their immediate families, shall be held in a blind trust.
5. No immediate family member of a member of Congress may be employed in a manner to benefit from the actions of Congress.
6. An investigatory agency shall be created, staffed and funded directly by the states, which shall have no purpose other than to continually investigate members of Congress.
I have more ideas by Pixy limits me.

But it won't happen in my lifetime.
I've also come to the conclusion that 40-50% of the population don't want the responsibility of freedom. They want to be ruled. It's the ultimate end to the victim mentality that is being taught in schools.

Speaking of two ratchits in a pod, Angel Reese's (I feel sad just knowing that I know who that is) coach complimented her for always finding time to get to the game (but she couldn't make it to practice) among her social fame-whoring.
Normally I would think he's dissing her, but sadly he probably meant it truly as kissing her ass. I mean, she did score 8 points last game and did a spin before a layup.

Having the head of the call it "State Investigative Agency" having to answer to the governors of the states for funding instead of congress should produce better results.

A significant portion of the voting population only cares as to who they think will give them the most federal dollars

Thinking for yourself is hard in many ways. And yes, many many people don't want to.
In Fyodor Dostoevsky's work, particularly in "Demons" (also known as "The Possessed"), the idea that people are drawn to being ruled or controlled is explored through various characters and themes, often intertwined with the devilish nature of some characters and the struggle against freedom. Dostoevsky doesn't explicitly state that people want to be ruled, but rather, he suggests that there are forces, both internal and external, that lead individuals towards submission and a relinquishment of personal freedom

Bill Gates Accuses Elon Musk of 'Killing' Children. accusing the world’s richest man of “killing the world’s poorest children” through what he said were misguided cuts to U.S. development assistance, the Financial Times reports.
Said Gates: “The picture of the world’s richest man killing the world’s poorest children is not a pretty one.”
Musk’s killing of USAID is in a large part because it helps black people in Africa and he grew up in apartheid S. Africa and sees them as the enemy.
Bill, you are just letting them die, yourself. You plan to give away your $200B by 2045 but your ex has been doing it for years. Can't you live on just a measly $1B and give it away now instead of dolling it out over time?
How long before Elon trots out some rightwing conspiracy theory about Bill Gates? Maybe he is combing through old Alex Jones shows...
If he were a mature adult, he would actually consider what Gates is saying and course correct. Instead, he will Tweet some insults and look for revenge. Musk is proud of having no empathy -- says it's destroying civilization.

>>Bill Gates Accuses Elon Musk of 'Killing' Children. accusing the world’s richest man of “killing the world’s poorest children” through what he said were misguided cuts to U.S. development assistance, the Financial Times reports.
Said Gates: “The picture of the world’s richest man killing the world’s poorest children is not a pretty one.”
LOL, no. Gates is mad Elon is not funding Gates' NGOs that allegedly help children.
The man is a Bond villain, he's been obsessed with overpopulation since he talked about this as a kid at the dinner table with his dad (as he said in an interview). His dad was big in Planned Parenthood, this was no minor concern. Gates in recent years has said that vaccines are the key to overpopulation -- how exactly does that work?
Projection, projection, projection.

Legislation introduced shall be valid if and only if it verifiably originated from the pen/paper, typewriter, word processor, etc of an elected member of Congress. Bills originating outside Congress, from aides, or from other branches shall not be considered and if enacted are invalid.
Legislation shall carry the initials of each member next to each paragraph of each bill verifying the member read the paragraph.

In Colombia there was an American who tried to build a building as a sort of economic revitalization project. He gave decent wages, and an American style workers comp program. He ran out of money because the workers tended to lop off a finger or toe when they had been there long enough to be vested in the program, for the insurance compensation, which they then quit and lived on.
There are some cultural issues that do have to be overcome, and they are both the power elite who cling to power, and the people who are accustomed to having no way to advance themselves long term and go for short term payouts.
These things can be changed, England, Russia and Germany all managed to do it, but it was never easy and never quick.

I think one of the hurdles it took me a long time to get over was understanding that most people just ... don't care.
We spend so much time "on the right" talking about ideology and cultural issues and what is right and what is wrong and what makes sense for the big picture and focusing on whether something will work and what we think second and third level outcomes will be, we assume everyone else is the same.
For the vast, vast majority of the world (including most of the voters in the US), they just don't care.
It comes down to "what is in my (perceived) best interest at this moment?" There is no ideological cohesiveness, they don't even care or think about that kind of stuff.
It's why the powers that be like to keep us arguing about transgender stuff and other issues. They don't give a shit one way or another, they just want us focused on these "cultural issues" (that they largely create) and not on the more pressing issue of them robbing us all blind

It'd work better than more aid that gets stolen by local warlords.
Hire security for the factory and the employees. Create an island of private property that thrives for years. Do it in one country.
Make it a company town that teaches reading, writing, and arithmetic to the kids. Build a self-sustaining nuclear power plant to power it all. Murder anyone who tries to fuck with it. Let it grow.

Banana companies tried that in the Banana Republics. Some successes, but largely not so much.
United Fruit, I believe, had the biggest most famous ones in Honduras.
That said, obviously company towns are ripe for abuse, and United Fruit has a horrifying history, so it's also possible they just basically enslaved people, but put a positive spin on it.

The Vaxx could very well be the key to wiping out swathes of mankind. I’m convinced it gave my late SiL fourth stage galloping lung cancer. She died fairly quickly, but not before undergoing a deathbed conversion. She confessed herself a wretched sinner and didn’t believe she could be forgiven for all her heinous sins. My brother, holding her in his arms, assured her no matter how bad it was, God could forgive. She relaxed, confessed her belief in Jesus Christ as the only Son of God and her Redeemer. She died soon after, still in my brother’s arms. Thank God! She is in Heaven now and at peace and in true happiness.

Also divide and conquer. They saw much of the country unite after 9/11, with the flags and all the mourning and the common ground, and it scared the ever-loving bejeezus out of them.
When Obama got in they knew they had the key to divide us and keep us locked there.
It's not just entertainment and politics. No news story of any kind is ever reported in a way that is uniting. Everyone used to agree on basic stuff but now they find a lever in everything,,no matter how simple and obvious, to make sure we can't. It's intentional.

I'm operating on the assumption that Gates, with $199 billion to spend on trying to make the world better, would be invested in making sure the hypothetical company town in the middle of Zimbabwe or wherever operated well and without corruption. He'd have incentive to create the example of private property in the middle of Africa to make things actively better.
Could end up in a small war with some local leaders. Like, real bang-bang war, but it'd essentially be growing pains.
Assuming Gates' end goal is making people's lives better and not killing off billions of us to met his Net Zero goal, of course.

For sure. Every year in this country, there are police involved shooting where the cop was clearly in the wrong and should be (and would be) condemned by everyone.
Those rarely make national news.
The shootings that do make the news are the ones most likely to cause arguments. See: George Floyd, Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, etc. etc.
They convince black people that they HAVE to support the dead black criminal out of racial solidarity, most white people look at it and say "welll.... maybe not the best way to handle the situation, but the cop doesn't seem to be criminally wrong here" and then the media tells black people "see?!? White people want cops to hunt you down and shoot you in the streets."

Pizzaballa is a legitimate Cardinal. Interesting dude. Once offered himself in exchange for hostages. Speaks Italian, English, Hebrew and Arabic.

The assumption always seems to be that charity makes the world better, not industry.
Industry is just the unfortunate way they gained all that money.

Yes, we don't allow foreign countries to dump products at a loss in the US (well, on paper at least) because it would destroy American industry. Wise policy.
Then we turn around a dump all of our excess food, clothes, medicine, etc. on the third world. Jeez, I wonder what that does for someone who wants to be a farmer or tailor or whatever in Africa?

‘Western whites paying local African warlords to remain in power.’
Yeah. I agree with you but I’m now in the ‘Give them no aid and let them work out their own problems’ camp.

Michelle Obama is not “transitioning”. He’s just reverting. Gonna change his name back to Mike, maybe even drop the Obama part, and start dressing like the man we knew he was from his dancing on the Ellen Degenerate Show.

Gutter-snipe Crockett is being stage managed. So's AOC and probably every other member of Congress. Either by real managers likely part of the bureaucratic state or their staff, also part of the bureaucratic state.
I honestly doubt there's anyone in Congress who's not being managed to one degree or another by faceless, unelected bureaucrats who have an agenda and an ax to grind.

This empathy thing is bizarre.
The argument is the government should be able to take anything from me and do anything to me on behalf of someone else for whom they are feeling "empathy"

I'm just trying to offer Gates (who definitely reads the comments) an alternate method for trying to improve the world, especially in Africa, other than a failed charitable regime that has become little more than graft.

The US cares about mercury pollution in Africa. (Minamata Convention on Mercury)
The agreement calls on governments to address the use of mercury in artisanal and small-scale gold mining, which uses and releases large amounts of mercury. It also includes provisions to ensure the environmentally sound storage of mercury and environmentally sound disposal of mercury waste.
BTW, such mining is often done in Africa by women and children.

Baier: Why did you spend $221K on private jets to your 'fighting oligarchy' rallies?
Bernie: "You think I can sit on a waiting line at United while 30,000 people are waiting? That's the only way you can get around. No apologies for that."
She is actually evil.

I once thought that working very hard and fashioning a mind as sharp as a razor, I might bring some positive change in the world. Alas, I failed all around. What little good I have done in the world came from God, not my labors. Yes, you are right.
