I Require Strength and Leadership And Not Cowardliness, Incompetence, and Failure. (Do You?)

 What a beautiful country we live in! When driving through rural towns, I am amazed at seeing the homes, farms and small stores and buildings that grace those areas.  When driving through bustling cities, I gawk at the size of massive office buildings and apartment and condo complexes in addition to the menagerie of stores, shops and restaurants, each one a testament to the belief of their owners in free enterprise and freedom.  The economic variety of what our country has to offer is endless.  Economic wealth and economic prosperity are enormous.  The American mind has developed and designed incredible inventions/technologies/tools to simplify our lives and help us live longer, healthier lives.  We take for granted our country and abundant lives. And many know and believe with me that all levels of our government continue to assert an autocratic and dictatorial rule of the towns, cities, states, and country via the oppression of non-elected, non-productive bureaucrats and their nurturing administrative state.  Personal freedoms such as freedom of speech, economic freedom and property rights have become endangered, especially over the past four years of the failed Democrat Biden-Harris administration. 

However, we are commanded to forget the oppressions of the last four and five years. Take the Covid-19 debacle (or as my friend and colleague Tony De Angelo refers to as “The First Attempted Communist Takeover”). Due to the failures, lies, frauds, murders of the elderly, and political obfuscations of King Gov. Ned Lamont The Unaccountable and his minions and henchmen, we are to forget any of this ever happened (Think: Is not “Turn The Page” an oft-heard term from Team Left?). But this is an Alinsky-esque model of how the left does business. Because the last four years of the failed Democrat Biden-Harris administration also. never happened.  Decay and destruction of our society and economy over the past four years never happened.  The putrid wreckage of our great cities, never happened. A massive loss of lives in a horrific and incompetent withdrawal from Afghanistan, unchecked illegal immigration. and illegals voting, and a never-ending illegal drug crisis never happened!  A $36,000,000,000,000.00 National Debt, fueled by an idiotic energy policy, with attendant runaway inflation doubling and tripling the cost of many necessities, never happened.  A re-education of our public school system focusing on politically correct and woke education and gender-confusion, apparently never happened!  Countless attempts to give away American Taxpayers monies for loan forgiveness of all types through Executive Orders, never happened!  Anti-Semitism, Jewish Hatred, an abandonment of the right of Israel to defend itself and unchecked anti-Israeli demonstrations never happened!  A demented President Joe Biden calling 250,000,000 Trump supporters “garbage”, was really Joe Biden stuttering, so calling these people "garbage", never happened!   This is the record the "joyful" and “forward moving" Vice President Harris and her incompetent, buffoon-esque and pro China Tim Walz sidekick are running on this coming Tuesday.  

Policy? There is none! Policy for this crowd is rooted in the “Rules for Radicals” of Saul Alinsky. (Turn the Page! Lie! Lie! Lie! Deny! Deny! Deny!. Blame the Other Guys for your screw-ups!) So have a party in trying to understand the platforms that Harris-Walz is running on.  Incoherent gibberish of socialist dreams and ideals coupled with word salad laughter while sprinkled with a mix of grunting against Trump and his "garbage" supporters using venom and hatred are all we hear.  We now have a laughable and completely false narrative of the past four years.  It just never happened! In this manner, we can embrace four more lost and dangerous years of the McDonald's employed Border Czar, as she is joyful, teleprompter-dependent, disguised and playacting the part of President of the United States of America.  No strength, no coherency, no energy, no policies, no foreign policies except for our enemies, and no leadership. This is exactly what the next four years will look like under a Harris-Walz regime.

 It is time for the silent majority to speak up.  America is on the line on November 5. We cannot afford as a country what we have just lived through for the past four years. Because of political beliefs, Conservatives have become a badly divided country according to our state-run media and its ill-tempered elitist supposed journalists.  Compromise is forbidden as beliefs and concepts that we were once taught as true, are now despised, and deemed forbidden by this minority of supercilious pompous asses now dictating to the majority what as to we can have and not have.  Americans are tired of this waste of our personal and natural resources.  Americans are tired of being lied to.  Americans are tired of seeing our enemies coddled while our friends are abandoned.  Instead, we need a new way forward of strength and leadership. 

It will happen again under a Trump-Vance administration.  And may Almighty God light the way for the preservation of the United States of America.

Voter Fraud (aka Standard Democrat Operating Procedure In Connecticut)

 Over the years, I have written about voter fraud as I have seen it facing ridicule, abuse, and derision for my position from those that are politically connected. But if anything, voter fraud has increased over time, spreading over the years to other parts of our country. Regardless of where it happens, it has the tacit blessing of the Democrat Party.  It is a sad day for our country when many Democrats believe that non-citizens somehow have the right to vote such as what is happening in Virginia and Minnesota (and probably Connecticut).  And this is wrong.  Dead wrong. And illegal. And unconstitutional. And grounds for evil practices and malfeasance

The Heritage Foundation has been tracking voter fraud cases in our country (https://www.heritage.org/voterfraud/search?state=CT).  Connecticut has had numerous cases dating back to 1988 and the infamous Bridgeport State Senate Ernie Newton ballot fraud case.  In fact, in Connecticut, the bulk of fraudulent cases are from Bridgeport and have been going for almost 50 years, going back to Mayor John Mandanici’s people submitting ballots for dead people in the 1970s.  These egregious cases have been continually swept under the rug, laughed at, disregarded, and avoided at all costs by the Connecticut Democrat Party.  Look at what happened with the 2023 Bridgeport Democrat Mayoral Primary and the stuffed absentee ballot fraud that took place, making Connecticut the butt of national jokes once again. But humility and shame are not emotions present in the makeup of a Connecticut Democrat where its a complete double-down on any fraudulent practice if it accomplishes the desired objective.

As just one recent example, Republican State Senator Rob Sampson has again decried the election fraud that seems to be constantly going on based on a recent unsealed complaint alleging that a Bridgeport city councilman convinced a non-citizen to illegally register to vote in 2023 and persuaded her to apply for an absentee ballot that he later cast for her.  His response to this new voter fraud issue was to the point “When will one-party rule Connecticut Democrats at our State Capitol admit and acknowledge what the rest of the state sees? And by the way: it is not just a ‘Bridgeport Problem.’ You can bet it has been happening in other municipalities. We need reform in Connecticut's absentee voting process. Republicans and I have been shouting from the rooftops about this for a long time prior to the viral Bridgeport ballot stuffing videos which made Connecticut a national embarrassment. Now, we have this news. Are you sick of seeing it? Then, as you head to the polls to vote, consider how Connecticut Democrats have shown zero interest in ensuring election integrity and have repeatedly voted ‘no’ on Republicans’ commonsense ideas to fix this obviously broken system. Absolutely nothing will change in Connecticut if you keep voting for Democrats.” (https://ctsenaterepublicans.com/2024/10/sen-sampson-statement-on-newly-unsealed-voter-registration-complaint/).  

Sampson was immediately condemned by the Connecticut Democrat Party for his comments, but more than arguably, why doesn’t the State Republican Party go one solid step farther and declare global war on voter fraud, by investigating and pursuing every reported occurrence of abuses?  For the abuses are sickening. Can Democrats explain to anyone why Bridgeport and its voting problems have gone on for almost 50 years with no reforms?  And can Democrats equally and completely deny with documentary proof that this form of voter fraud does not exist in other Connecticut municipalities especially with the absurd same day voter registration that exists in the state?  Democrats do not do so, because Democrats know exactly what they are doing and do nothing to stop it because fraud invariably accrues to their benefit.  As my friend and colleague Tony De Angelo often says, its simple as that, (and regrettably, just as difficult).

Moreover, what is astounding to me is no one in this same “legitimate media” (or “political/media complex”) pursues other indicias of fraud to trace it to its root causes. Take Bridgeport. “Wanda The Ballot Stuffer” has been politically operating in Bridgeport over the course of several gubernatorial elections, several of which somehow changed overnight. Would it not be a reasonable question to ask if Wanda had her hand in several of these contests, such as the Lamont-Stefanowski debacle of 2018? Or take this past week. Rep. Greg Howard (R) of Stonington found his name omitted from early voting ballots. How is this grievous flaw possible? Who was responsible for printing the ballots? Is anyone responsible for proofreading ballots? Has this occurrence happened with others in the state. These are all very obvious and logical questions that stunningly, are never pursued by either politically connected individuals or state-run (and paid for), media.

 But take all of this in totality. This is the labyrinthine reality of voter fraud: Every fraudulent voter registration and/or questionable transaction could result in a fraudulent vote that in turn cancels out your legitimate vote and can influence the results of an election.  It is well-established that The Connecticut Democrat Party has their own "playbook" on voter fraud.  They love it and use it for their own gain.  Legal voters want their votes to actually count.  Because they do not in the political filth and grime of the corrupted Democrat controlled city of Bridgeport, CT, and its convicted Mayor.  And they do not count either in the omnipotent one-party ruled Democrat Party state of Connecticut, wherever these happenings occur. 

The fraud is in full view of our country to see and be disgusted by on a daily basis. And other than a blessed few, most connected to the fray accept all of this as standard operating procedure.

God help us all.

Functional Illiteracy, Incompetency, And The Inability To Answer A Question- The New Democrat Gold Standard

 You all know Vice President Kamala Harris. The shallow, smiling, giggling, and waving soul who smiles and laughs as she promises “Change” and “A New Way Forward”, “Joy” and “Turning The Page.” This saccharine, shallow person who has fostered doubts on all sides regarding her inability to function now has issues with answering any simple questions, especially when they involve her actions and reactions as being the Vice President for the past four years. All of these occurrences provide the sensation to an observer of watching an impending train wreck while being unable to stop it.

  Harris’ latest implosion was seen on a reality-based 26-minute question and answer interview with Fox News Brett Baier on Wednesday October 16, 2024.  The questions that were asked of her which would be asked of any aspirant to the highest office of the land, rattled Harris to an embarrassing end.  Her body language gave off a sense of anger, frustration, and inability to act.  Given questions that required clear and well-reasoned answers, Harris could not deflect her shortcomings with her standard condescending and supercilious mannerisms and her classic nervous laugh as she did debating President Trump. As no question was answered with any direct answer, Harris showed that she was unprepared for her interview reciting her standard gibberish remarks of her stale campaign during the 26-minute truncated session. However, during that time, she did manage to state the name “Donald Trump” 25 times while appearing continually nervous, rattled, and angered.  Are these the leadership qualities Americans want in their President in negotiating with foreign dictators and with Democrat-engendered world war on the horizon?  

God Help Us All.

As this painful session wore on, the disingenuous nature and incompetence of Harris was glaring. In watching the interview, one wondered how she never saw any decline in President Biden whatsoever, yet she had no problem accepting the coronation and ascension to her Presidential run when Biden backed out.  So, Harris really did not see anything wrong whatsoever with the President over the years? Really?  Who is kidding who in this situation?  What an unbelievable lie, one of the many of the failed and lie-filled Biden-Harris Administration.

Harris also wants us to believe that the unchecked border crisis is inexplicably the fault of President Trump.  She apparently had no indication during the interview that she was at first in favor of an open border and somehow came to the realization that she is against it and or has any recollection of the border being open for the past four years while she was the "proclaimed Border Czar”.  How stupid does she think the American Voter is?  And what about the families of the murder victims Jocelyn Nungaray, Rachel Morin, and Laken Riley among others?  The deaths of innocent women and others were not a direct result of the Biden-Harris border debacle policy, according to Harris.  The unaccountable attitude of Harris reeks. Harris owns this crisis and its results not President Trump.

But what is really new in how Harris conducted herself for her first real test before Mr. Baier? Incompetence, unaccountability, inability to answer questions and own up to blame. a complete lack of reasoning and offending citizens make up the new Democrat “Gold Standard" of governance. Take one look at the confused and befuddled "swagger man" Mayor Eric Adams, who single-handedly destroyed New York City the same way that Gov. Gavin Newsom has destroyed California. Or Governor Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan, who weirdly made a “Tik-Tok” video with another woman playing a Christian receiving communion in the form of a Doritos chip, with Whitmer “serving” the chip and shrugging her shoulders. Or Rep. Joe Courtney of Eastern Connecticut, who will not apologize to the citizens he represents in Windham County, Connecticut for his act of legislative malpractice in blowing a tax-related Disaster declaration for 2023, costing these constituents untold thousands of dollars while executing one for his more “simpatico” New London County constituents as my friend and colleague Tony De Angelo is wont to point out. Or let us not forget Connecticut’s own “Gold Standard” in incompetence and ineffectiveness, King Gov. Ned Lamont The Unaccountable, who Tony points out could suspend the Eversource “Public Benefits” bill charge debacle with a stroke of his pen under an impending public health emergency, akin to what he did during Covid-19. But Ned is not financially invested in Eversource while he was invested in Covid with Sema4 so he has no incentive to govern. But it is undeniable that all of the aforementioned Democrats are invested in arrogance, incompetence, ineffectiveness, and obfuscation. citizen be damned.

 But in returning to Harris, the failed Democrat Biden=Harris Administration helped to create the current crisis of Kamala Harris and her non electability.  I must also point out, which never reached this same interview, was how Harris could explain the economics of the past four years that she now disowns.   Please stop lying to yourself. You are not better off economically than you were in 2021, contrary to all the new economic bells and whistles of the Harris-Walz campaign.  America's Voters are not going to elect an incoherent and unintelligible Democrat team that has no focus, direction and or functional policies to put forth to the country.  The Democrat Party relies upon the same tried thrashing of all things Donald J. Trump and his followers.  It has become a sick and sad bore to listen to for the past eight years. 

 Good riddance to the bad rubbish for Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, and the political zombies of their Administration.  Welcome President Trump and Vice President Vance.

Dr. Michael Goldstein For United States House of Representatives CT-4

Dr. Michael Goldstein, a Republican, is running for United States Congressional Representative in Connecticut's 4th district.  He is running against Democrat power broker Jim Himes who is the current US Representative since 2009.  Himes has been in office for 15 years now and really has not much to show in those years in Congress as he seems to like to condemn and belittle all things President Trump and the Republican Party.  His rhetoric and lack of results for the citizens of Connecticut's 4th district should not be tolerated any longer.  Himes offers little in solutions and has done little for his district in 15 years.

Dr. Goldstein offers a much different representation for this district.  His fresh ideas and common sense approach to solving problems is needed for the difficult times that have we have suffered through for the past four years from the horrific Biden-Harris administration and its failed policies.

As stated from his website: "Over the past 30 Years, Connecticut has become a bureaucratic empire mismanaged by the majority of its elected officials that continue to saddle this great state with debt while driving good tax payers and industries out of the state in search of better economic opportunities.

  I am running for Congress as I am tired of seeing the Democrats of this Constitution State not abiding by the constitution and will do everything I can to prevent the state from becoming the next Detroit.  I am also extremely concerned about rising anti-semitism and hate speech plaguing this country in our streets and on our college campuses.

I am all about protecting your freedoms. We are here to protect your freedoms as parents and your right to make the best decision for your children, your medical rights, and the protection of your inalienable rights.
 

The issues facing most Americans are not partisan. They include not being bankrupt from filling our gas tanks, heating our houses and feeding our children. The fact that there is no plan to address these pocketbook issues and improve the lives of our children is unacceptable. Our children need the best quality education possible not indoctrination. Parents have the absolute right to fight for that." (https://goldsteinforcongress.com/#09a7381b-a1e7-4b31-bc60-85d83b457f52)

It is truly time for a change in the United States House of Representatives.  Jim Himes probably has not gone grocery shopping for years now and doesn't seem to understand how our economy works.  Dr. Goldstein offers a realistic view of society and economy through his real world work and life experiences.  It is time for a change this November.  Connecticut's 4th District needs a change for the better with new representation from Dr. Michael Goldstein.  He has earned your vote on Election Day.

The Vice President Harris Implosion (or, There Is No Joy In Mudville, After All)

I guess it was fun while it lasted. The "joy" and Utopia of the handpicked, elitist, and manufactured Democrat Party Executive ticket of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are imploding daily. The campaign, along with its simpatico “media partners” are doing all they can not to display the sitting Vice President without carefully scripted and rehearsed events. The results of those same scripted and rehearsed events are not what the campaign handlers and consultants imagined. Has Kamala Harris really been the Vice President for the past four years and is completely denying the events that have damaged our country, economy and world form her Administration's actions/policies? Is she so shallow and frivolous that her most noted “appearance” of the week was on the sex podcast “Call Her Daddy?” Is she so mentally incoherent to not explain how any one of her “economic policies” is economically viable? This is now the case, thereby turning the campaign of “joy” into a campaign of laughable fiction, if such a situation is the least bit funny.

It is now quite obvious that Vice President Harris has difficulty in expressing herself as she prates on with exceptional nervousness in what are often referred to as "word salads,” as she insultingly cackles through the incoherent gibberish she is spewing. But she has a hostile side. When she wants to seem serious, she can play a mean and condescending shrew as we saw in her performing arts debate against President Trump. At any time, Harris knows enough to play to what she thinks her audience wants her to be. Like a bad "Grade B" actress, she has used different accents, different facial expressions, different body language, different inflections, and different platforms that contradict one another, and different personal backgrounds recited to fit the moment turning her into a true political chameleon and machinator of the highest degree. At any time, her bombast can lead to a new Kamala Harris character, a character that was never the character of the sitting Vice President for the past four years.

Her accomplishments as part of the Biden-Harris Administration are recited to be endless. If one looks at these "accomplishments", one will clearly see that they have been abysmal and profound failures in both our country and the world. Apparently the following events never occurred in the fantasy world of Kamala Harris; the horrors of the now open border that has help to nurture a massive illegal drug and human trafficking crisis, a massive inflation rate along with an ever growing National Debt, a new fiscal 2024 budget deficit of $1.83 trillion dollars with interest payments accounting for roughly 14 cents of every dollar spent by the Federal government, multiple international wars/conflicts/human sufferings, horrifically botched disaster recovery, and a failed green energy policy that has done much more harm than good. What world has she been living in for the past four years?

But Harris does have the advantage of synchronized sycophants. It's sad that one thing that Democrats and Marxists do much better for their people than Republicans do for theirs is cover and provide a continual barrage of hostility and disinformation for Harris in much greater volume than Republicans have ever provided for President Trump. A tour of X-Twitter will be replete with the constant shameful and brainless hostilities of the likes of Bob Duff, Matt Lesser, Rosa DeLauro and the esteemed serial incompetent Sen. Chris Murphy. Most of these exercises in modern-day graffiti are often deranged. But they are present, while Republican push-back against the same is often soft and weak if not silent. It is all a blot on what government is in 2024, but with this amount of bile and vitriol present, we all can agree that there is no “joy” present in that camp anywhere at all for them to be spewing that amount of continued hostility.

But joy often evaporates in confusion and mismanagement. If Kamala Harris is not Joe Biden than can she explain how? If Tim Walz is not Kamala Harris, can he explain how? If Kamala Harris had no say whatsoever in the Biden-Harris Administration policies and ideologies, can she explain what she did for the past four years other than gag it up on talk shows and preach to sad and weak-willed young women on personal anxieties? Kamala Harris is a frightening example of a failed two-party political system. Her creation and ascent to run for what used to be one of the most important and demanding political offices in our country is frightening. Appeasing the ultra-liberal and socialist part of the Democrat Party through the deal made for her Vice Presidency, to the appeasing of the same ultra-liberal and socialist part of the Democrat Party for her Presidential run is an insult to our country. Whatever her background/education/experiences/political positions she has, she is just a puppet and fabrication and creation of a failed bureaucratic Democrat Party.

The handlers of Kamala Harris see the defeat and nonperformance of her campaign. The tide has turned, and the implosion continues through November 5th.

And there is no Joy in Mudville, after all.

I WILL CRIPPLE YOU- Job No. 1 of the Democrat Party And It’s Union Partners

It is quite clear to many that the Democrat Party of 2024 dislikes economic stability and or economic prosperity, except for their chosen few. It is also quite clear that the Democrat Party of 2024 dislikes the working men and women of this country. Lastly, it certainly appears to many that the Democrat Party of 2024 has a great desire to inflict as much pain and suffering it can on these same working men and women of our economy and those on fixed incomes by their robust endorsement of the (now-delayed) strike by the International Longshoremen’s Association (ILA) at all of the thirty-six (36) Eastern and Gulf Coast ports in our country.

According to official accounts, this strike is centered on the apparent minuscule pay and benefits that the ILA earns. The Longshoremen are demanding a 77% pay increase over six years that will raise the base hourly wage for its members from $39 to $69 over this period. It has been reported by the Port of New York and New Jersey Regulator of the Waterfront Commission of New York Harbor that more than half of 3,726 dockworkers earned more than $150,000 a year in Fiscal 2020, with almost one in five earning over $250,000 a year. The report also stated: "Based on the industry's reported figures, the Commission has again identified over 590 individuals who collectively received over $147.6 million dollars last year in outsized salaries, or for hours they never worked." (https://www.thecentersquare.com/national/article_b6346692-801e-11ef-be8b-3fc6dd725881.html)

The ILA is led by a Runyon-esque man named Harold Daggett. A recent video of Mr. Daggett posted on social media quoted him as stating, “I will cripple you” in reference what this strike would do to the United States economy. Why does Mr. Daggett want to "cripple" us and the economy? Did we as taxpaying citizens do something to upset this "leader" of the ILA union? The same leader who owns a 7,000 square foot home, drives a Bentley, earns over $910,000 a year as head of the union and recently sold his yacht (https://nypost.com/2024/10/02/business/harold-daggetts-sprawling-nj-mansion-has-bentley-5-car-garage-and-guest-house/). One can argue that he is far removed from the legal working middle class citizens of our country and economy. But hey! He wants to "cripple" us and our economy and has the blessing of President Biden and Vice President Harris along with the Democrat Party.

Curiously, President Biden has also stated that he would have not invoked the Taft-Hartley Act to end the strike in using an 80-day cooling off period, where both sides would have gone back to the negotiating table without fanfare or attention. The strike, if it had continued, would have cost our economy untold billions upon billions of dollars, and would have created a new round of inflation.

Thus, this type of strike may be a difficult concept for some non-ILA union members to support since those union members do not make an extremely high salary. Inflation is the same for these ILA members making their high salaries as compared to their much lower income non-ILA union members and for those non-union, non-special employees who toil daily in our economy. The ILA arguments of its "travesty of economic justice" are falling on deaf ears especially for those citizens of our country who have lost everything they own and worked for from Hurricane Helene, especially as they starve and die at the feet of an uncaring government. Since the ILA controls labor contracts on the docks, any innovation that could make the docks more efficient and thus lower the costs of the products shipped to the docks, could be passed on to consumers in the form of lower costs. But jobs must be justified, so that type of innovation is forbidden. The union still demands guarantees of “no modernization nor automation” to preserve these above equilibrium jobs for its 50,000 plus members and for its leaders, much like the “rubber room” strategy employed by the United Auto Workers years back, with such strategy having a great hand in the collapse of the domestic auto industry in 2009.

Of course, no analysis of labor and management relations can be complete without commentary as to what the labor and management relationships are like in Connecticut. Connecticut! A state that is owned by its public unions. A state where 40% of the state budget goes to pay municipal pensions, with most of the retirees now residing in other tax-free jurisdictions. A state where Democrat politicians marched in an Omni Hotel picket line for a “photo op” effectively destroying that picket in embarrassment, leaving labor to solve their own situation without this useless “political support.” A state where the Lt. Governor Susan Bysiewicz defiantly said on X that she would have “done the same (picket) thing all over again” after the Omni debacle, showing absolutely no regard for her poor plebian subjects. Connecticut! A state where Covid money somehow always ends up in union coffers. And a state where the poisoned educational unions continue to dilute and ruin education. My friend and colleague Tony De Angelo describes labor and management relations as a “board game” in Connecticut, however I respectfully disagree with Tony in that it is only a game if both players have an equal chance of winning.

Maybe just maybe in 2024 it is time to rethink and reevaluate an antiquated system of harbor shipping and commerce along with all the other one-sided labor dealings that are all so familiar to us. Technology runs our economy whether unions believe it or not. Just maybe, the Biden-Harris regime and their useless ideologies, toadies, lackeys, and sycophants could be set aside once since their regime began and put Americans and the American economy first. The Biden-Harris regime seems to enjoy watching legal Americans fight for their survival whether it has been an open border crisis, a human trafficking crisis, a pandemic crisis, a National Debt crisis, a runaway inflation crisis, war in the Middle East crisis, and much more. And comically this is the true record of all new and reinvented Kamala Harris. And, as a sneak preview King Governor Ned Lamont The Unaccountable or his successor will continue to feed the state union cookie monster’s financial demands in exchange for continuing votes. But while Kamala Harris will now cry victory, and we are now reprieved, we are soon headed for more deceptions, lies and a horrific way forward, as we will soon see a new port crisis of her own making regardless of who is elected.

Free America from being crippled by union and political upper crust and the illuminati that have ruined our country for many years.

The “New Way Forward?” It Is To Repeat All The Economic Mistakes By Government Of The Past Four Years

What is economics? Simply defined, it is the study of how people allocate scarce resources for production, distribution, and consumption both individually and collectively. Economics interfaces with politics, government, law, and business. Economics has two branches; macroeconomics and microeconomics. Efficiencies in both production and exchange create a balance or equilibrium between supply and demand in free markets. Economics is a simplistic but complex social science that is sometimes misunderstood. And sadly, our economic system is sometimes horribly impeded by our elected officials and non-elected bureaucrats, who often exhibit little to no understanding of this social science.
Our economic system can also be viewed in respect to creating a “ripple effect” in our economy that helps to create economic growth and prosperity as I discussed with my friend and colleague Tony De Angelo sub-hosting on 94.9’s “Lee Elci Show” this past Thursday For example, you wish to buy a new car to replace your old one. You sell your old car to a person who is looking for a vehicle that is less expensive than a new car and will only cost him the $7,500 you are asking for it. He pays you with a bank check that you deposit in your checking account. The first economic impact of this transaction is fulfilled with you selling your used vehicle at a price that you have deemed to be fair for its value and the person you sold it to is satisfied with that price and with the utility or satisfaction he or she received in buying it. You, in turn, withdraw the $7,500 from your account and place a down payment on a new car that suits your needs, costing you $40,000 in its new condition. Therefore, a ripple effect starts with the car dealership earning a profit on the sale of the car and the salesperson earning income and or a commission by selling the car providing money to pay his bills for that month. When you return the car back to the dealership for service you help employ mechanics that earn an income from servicing your vehicle along with the service technician who waits on you, writes up, and coordinates the service itself. Parts from manufacturers are used in your vehicle that help create economic profit when they are sold to the dealer and retailed to you. Thus, we see economic activity via the functions of a ripple effect along with supply and demand balances or equilibrium taking place in the marketplace with you and your vehicle. Income and profits occur that help fuel economic growth. You receive utility in your new car and now feeling secure in traveling, you consider taking your family on a vacation many miles away.

It is my bet that only a slim minority of any politicians understand even this simple economic example above, but to the matter at hand, Does Kamala Harris understand economics? Would she as a potential POTUS be able to understand this simple example I just gave? I really must wonder in review of her "new" 82 page "New Way Forward" economic plan that she has just revealed. To me, her plan is warmed-over Bidenomics on steroids and gives the strong appearance of written by biased students using AI. (https://(kamalaharris.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Policy_Book_Economic-Opportunity.pdf). As someone who has studied and taught economics for many years, I am frankly scared by this document as it is the usual stale Democrat Party economic gibberish that continues to destroy our economy especially those who work for a living, only this time using more spending.

The Harris "New Way Forward" economic plan includes many of the failed economic policies utilized during the tenure of her Vice Presidency, assuming she understood any of them in the least. To describe her 82 pages in more simplistic terms the “plan” consists of the usual, new and higher taxes, new and higher transfer payments, taxes on unrealized capital gains, more green energy subsidies, price and rent controls, less coverage with higher premiums under Obamacare, more student loan forgiveness, and much more in the way of a free-money candy-land. Reading the report is confusing to me. For example, from Page 9 a Yale economist using estimates from the Budget Lab at Yale and the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, emphasize Harris’s plan is more fiscally responsible. They note: “Any fair fiscal comparison shows this election is not a close call. If the deficit is your top issue, Harris is the clear choice End note #9 cites Sarin, Natasha. “How would Trump and Harris affect U.S. debt? The difference is huge.” The Washington Post. September 13, 2024. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opin-ions/2024/09/13/harris-trump-deficit-debt. To this pap/ claptrap, my question is didn't the National debt and budget deficit grow to record amounts under the Harris Vice Presidency? Is that not factual? So how is it possible that the same basic economic policies with all the entitlement programs, giveaways, no cost loans, tax credits, failed green energy programs and loan forgiveness do not dramatically increase the National Debt to even higher proportions? Could this mysterious unnamed "Yale economist" explain this to the American Taxpayer? Or is he or she comfortable in the cushy existence of being paid by a huge endowment making prognostications without suffering any negative effects from the same?

The statements become even more unsupported and bizarre: "Unlike Trump, Vice President Harris and Governor Walz will protect and strengthen Social Security and Medicare. They will shore up Social Security and Medicare so that these essential programs will stay solvent in the long run by making corporations and the wealthiest Americans pay their fair share in taxes." (Page 69). Does Harris mean that Corporate and wealthy individual Democrat Party political donors will be singled out to pay these higher taxes to pay for Social Security and Medicare? Or will they be able to continue to lobby for their tax exemptions and breaks as they have been for many years? Does this mean Nancy Pelosi will disclose her tax statements to show either how little (likely) or how much (unlikely) she pays in federal taxes? Magically under the Harris Vice Presidency of the past four years, she was not able to shore up Social Security and Medicare but again it is somehow President Trump's fault for this crisis that under her Vice Presidency grew unabated and exacerbated. Give us all a break.

In reading this train-wreck of a manifesto, I have set my hourglass to wonder how long it will be before some of the Connecticut local politicians, understanding nothing at all about economic principles, tout this plan as the solution. My only question is who will this bold stalwart be? Will it be Senate Majority Leader Bob Duff, who will make a tweet out of it to show his hatred for President Trump? Will it be ”Businessman Governor” King Ned Lamont The Unaccountable, who during his watch has seen more business leave the state or close than in any time in state history? Or will it be Comptroller Sean Scanlon, who showed his knowledge of sound fiscal policy and present value mathematics by dividing the debt into a small currently due portion, deferring the balance as it accrued even greater interest cost, and then he was touted by the state-run media and the “bipartisan” legislature as “The Man That Solved The State Deficit.” As I often say, the Connecticut Apple rests on the trunk of the poisoned National tree when it comes to matters of economics.

This 82 page "New Way Forward" thesis/AI/Chat GPT, drool and muck, is a Utopian lie of more socialism and economic restriction for our country and is the norm for the Democrat Party platforms. Voters need to understand that Kamala Harris has been the Vice President for the past four years covering for the incompetent and mentally senile Joe Biden and they are responsible for the runaway inflation and runaway increases in the National Debt, not President Trump. The 82 page "New Way Forward" is more like the "Old Way Backwards Warmed Over" and contains little if anything "new" economically to move "forward". It would be refreshing to see some "new" economic thought such as a plan to balance the yearly budget, a plan to pay down the $35 trillion dollar National Debt, a plan to realistically cut taxes for the working middle class, a plan to eliminate Taxpayers monies being paid out fraudulently to individuals and businesses who wish to defraud our government, a plan to make health care affordable again, a plan to stop using Taxpayers monies to prop up our foreign enemies and a plan to restore our free market system while lessening the sickening 24% Federal control of our Gross Domestic Product. It can be done, but politically Vice President Harris does not have the abilities nor the background to change her failed ways. Truly enough is enough of the Democrats control of our economy and its Taxpayers.
