Valid Questions and What Happens Next

There are numerous questions that I have pondered in the wake of the Coronavirus pandemic. How long can the economic patient survive without economic oxygen?  How is this temporary medical crisis going to be used to curtail your freedoms permanently? And is the crisis temporary? Does the saying, "I'm from the government and I'm here to help," frighten you? How will life change in the AC (after Coronavirus) when compared to life BC (before Coronavirus)?

Ileana’s Musings During Corona Times

I’m going to start dating everything with B.C. (before Corona) and A.C. (after Corona) or, if I am in a day of reckoning economic mood, B.C. (before collapse), A.C. (after collapse). I know I’ve become a full-fledged American because I have gained humor during dire times when I should be crying. Why take everything so seriously, we must be self-deprecating once in a while.

Animals Need Social Distancing Too

Animals Need Social Distancing TooA comedic uncle called today to ask how we are surviving in our lockdown quarantine, if we have food and medicine, if we are lonely, cabin feverish, closer than ever, or ready to kill each other. He told us that his son and best friend were coming out of their police-imposed two-week quarantine upon their return flight from a European Union country. The police made sure they went straight home and stayed there for two weeks. In order to provide groceries and medication for his elderly parents, his son could now receive a special travel document within the city presentable to police roadblocks upon request.

Lessons Learned from The Chinese Wuhan Virus Global Crisis

What are my lessons learned from the Chinese Wuhan virus global crisis and "pandemic?" I live in Reality Ville and know the face of communism and forced collectivism. I've stood in food lines, toilet paper lines, and other essentials' lines every day in the first twenty years of my life. The number one lesson I learned today is that globalism is EVIL. 

My White Privilege

I pulled the thick blanket out the dryer – it was still a tad damp so I placed it on the banister. I don’t have a clothesline – they are not allowed by the socialist Homeowners Association (HOA). If you want to live relatively close to a job, you must build in an HOA, you don’t have the luxury of declining it.

Dr. Mircea, Barefoot Doctor Part III

In the spring of 1964 Dr. Mircea received the much sought-after invitation for a two-year post graduate ear nose and throat (ENT) fellowship in Warsaw, Poland. The nasty treatment at the Bucharest airport by armed guards, including confiscation of college photos as “security threat” because “the enemy of the communist regime must not know what the entrance to the university looks like,” did not dampen his spirit and elation to finally leave the oppression of communism behind.

The Medical Journey of Dr. Mircea, a Doctor Trained under Socialism

A fresh graduate in September 1961, Aurel described his six years of medical school quite succinctly – four years filled with communist propaganda, basic science classes, political classes, and the Russian language; two years focused mostly on hospital training, public health, and hygiene. He wrote, “very little practical experience was accumulated during those final years. The final exam consisted of three medical subjects and the mandatory Marxism-Leninism oral test.”

The Medical Journey of Dr. Mircea

Dr. Aurel Emilian Mircea’s medical journey started in the 1961 Socialist Republic of Romania and took “20,000 miles and 50 years to complete.” He crossed numerous countries and three continents. He should be in the Guinness Book of World Records as the only Romanian licensed doctor who had practiced medicine on three continents, Europe, Africa, and North America, and in four countries, Romania, Poland, South Africa, and the United States.

Bernie’s Idyllic Socialism That Never Existed

The goal of socialism is communism. – Vladimir Lenin When President Donald Trump will finish his presidential term(s) the world will still be here, and you will be living in it. Which kind of world is it going to be? Will it be Bernie’s socialist world? Will it be the media’s globalist world? Will it be communist?

Millennials Relying on Memes & Emojis Easy To Indoctrinate

“It is always a much easier task to educate uneducated people than to re-educate the mis-educated.” ― Herbert M. Shelton, Getting Well Why is it that Millennials are so easily indoctrinated and believe that socialism will solve all their problems supposedly created by the evil capitalism? No longer will they have to live in their parents’ basement, they will have jobs other than baristas, transitory social justice will be achieved, they will get that six-figure dream job their college advisors promised, and everything will be free – socialism will pay for it all. Nancy Pelosi promised that they could stay home and find themselves. Why would Bernie, their Marxist god and mentor, make false promises? After all, he is now a millionaire himself because he wisely advocated socialism in America. He would not lie to them, would he?

Socialist Democrat Presidential Candidate Bernie Sanders Marching America Over Socialist Cliff

Now that a naked Marxist has won the New Hampshire Democrat primary, perhaps their 1945-adopted motto should no longer be "Live Free or Die," but "Live Marxist or Die." The Democrat Party has re-branded itself into full-blown socialists and their voting base doesn't seem to mind. Who would object to promises of free college tuition, free healthcare, free housing, food, guaranteed employment, equal pay, and other freebies?

Romanian King of Communism Lionized by BBC

A 2016 BBC documentary titled, The King of Communism – The Pomp and Pageantry of Nicolae Ceausescu, focused on Nicolae Ceausescu and his wife Elena’s cult of personality propaganda that helped maintain his brutal Communist Party dictatorship (1965-1989) in the Socialist Republic of Romania, a tyranny that irreparably damaged the soul of a nation. Sadly, the documentary was celebrated by people who still believe in his misery right up to this day.

Your Anonymity Gone With The Wind

I wrote before about the 2006 Oscar winner for the best Foreign Language Film, “Das Leben des Anderen” (The Lives of Others), a German drama that describes in painful detail life in the communist East Berlin of 1984, before the fall of the Berlin Wall, how ordinary and not so ordinary citizens were spied upon by their government, using agents of the infamous Stasi, the German Democratic Republic’s secret police.

Climate Soothsayer Greta Mimics UN Sustainability

“Giving society cheap, abundant energy would be the equivalent of giving an idiot child a machine gun.” - Dr. Paul Ehrlich, Stanford professor of Biology The non-profits and think-tanks have now adopted and added another descriptor to their strategical predictions – sustainable. Mimicking and adopting the dictates of U.N. Agenda 21/2030 Sustainable Development 17 goals, everything is now sustainable. If it is not sustainable, it is not hip and worthy of discussion.

When Bureaucrats Get to Limit Your Water Use

Living in Italy, expat Americans were shocked to learn that they couldn’t drive their cars into Verona on certain days if their licenses ended in odd numbers and on other days if their licenses ended in even numbers. Caught driving on the wrong day, the penalty was stiff. It was the bureaucrats’ way of dealing with pollution that affected air quality, soot deposits on marble statues, and buildings in town. In Modesto, California, the city deals with water shortages, whether real or imagined, by giving citations and fines to odd-numbered addresses that water lawns on Tuesdays when only even-numbered addresses can use sprinkler systems.

Discussion with Social Justice Millennials

In a 1958 interview with Mike Wallace, Aldous Leonard Huxley, British writer and philosopher, discussed the power of technology, drugs, and propaganda as formidable methods of indoctrination. He talked about Hitler who used the press and radio very effectively to brainwash an entire nation to accept the evil that followed. He explained to Wallace:

Needed in our Day: Freedom from the Press

The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution says simply that Congress shall make no law “abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press.” The courts have since bent over backwards to interpret and re-interpret the intent of the framers of the Constitution, depending on who the aggrieved parties were and whose interests were at stake.

Sham Democracy of the Left

The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money.   - Alexis de Tocqueville

Politicians, their low information voters, and indoctrinated Millennials talk about our endangered democracy when their conservative opponents dare to contradict them. We know, however, that our country is a Constitutional Republic, not a democracy.

Inconvenient Anti Socialism Video Banned by Social Media Censors

We are going to take care of all people who are NOT willing to work. – part of the Socialist Democrat platform I have made peace with the fact that social media censors like Twitter and Facebook have shadow-banned me. Google has not allowed any advertising on my website.

A Visit to the Supreme Court

On a sunny and cold day in December, we were guided on a tour of the Supreme Court, the bastion of definitive justice in the U.S., handed down by the nine black-robed group, a chief justice and eight associate justices, who ultimately decide, in case by case they cherry-pick, the hanging-in-the-balance fate of our Constitutional Republic.
