Early Round Up Star Date 2021.245

1. The indoctrination of our children continues as activist teachers impose their views on their students in order to retrain their minds. First a teacher hid the American Flag and then told her students it must be somewhere but until she “finds” it they should pledge to the other flag in the room. That flag was the rainbow flag of the lesbian teacher. She said the American Flag bothered her. I imagine if someone said the gay pride flag bothered them she would scream homophobia. In any event, she has been removed from the classroom pending an investigation. Another teacher is a member of Antifa and he has an Antifa flag in his classroom. Project Veritas recorded him saying he has 180 days to turn the kids into revolutionaries. He said that he uses fear to intimidate your kids into submission. The funny thing about Antifa is that it is full of the very fascists they allege to be against. I must admit I love when they clash with a conservative group and get the snot beat out of them.

2. Not a real doctor Jill Biden said if we listen to the science we can keep the schools open. I imagine Jill does not understand that the federal government has no say in whether or not schools in states stay open. Schools are under the control of the state government and if a state wants schools open then they can be open. Jill wants everyone in school to wear masks despite the science that tells us children are the least affected by Covid and that masks cause harm to the children’s development. You would think a former school teacher would know that. She did say that

“Parents, I want you to know that your child, your school and your family are at the heart of all that my husband, Joe, is doing to help our country defeat and ultimately recover from this pandemic”

I bet that your kids are at the heart of what he is doing like sniffing their hair and touching them inappropriately. If it were anything else he would recognize the science regarding children and Covid.

3. Tucker Carlson went after Joe Biden and his push for gun control. Carlson pointed out that Biden armed a terrorist organization with hundreds of thousands of rifles, handguns and machine guns. Wrap your head around that. The same guy (and his party) who have been working to disarm you for decades had no issue with giving firearms to people who have a record of murdering anyone who does not agree with them and/or who does not follow their way of life. Americans have a Constitutionally protected right to KEEP (own, possess) and BEAR (carry) arms and we should be allowed to own the same arms we paid taxes for the Taliban to own. Biden and his band of terrorist enablers will spend more time trying to disarm the American citizens than they ever will the Taliban. But remember government, the Taliban numbers fewer than 100 thousand. We are nearly 200 million strong. The armed population of the US constitutes the largest fighting force in the entire world. Be careful when you say you will take our firearms because you will have to actually take them and that will not be easy. There will be a rifle behind every blade of grass…

4. Joe Biden, the alleged Catholic, is upset that Texas enacted a law banning abortion after a fetal heartbeat is detected. Biden immediately claimed that the law violates the Constitution. The word abortion is not in the Constitution and the federal government has no say over it BUT it did so anyway in a twisted ruling by the SCOTUS in Roe v. Wade. The issue was a 10th Amendment issue and should have been left at the state level (as an aside, this is true of marriage as well – all gay or straight). The right to keep and bear arms is written in the Constitution. Keep in mind that the Constitution does not grant us rights or give us rights, it protects rights we have as a result of our existence. All rights predate the Constitution and therefore the US government cannot take them away. Since the Second Amendment states that the right shall NOT BE INFRINGED, then any law or restriction on that right is null and void. Yet Biden at the federal level and state legislatures pass and impose gun control laws each and every day. We are told that they are allowed to enact “common sense” gun laws. When a state has some onerous gun laws the SCOTUS rarely takes the case and the state claims it has a right to regulate the ownership of guns. So tell me, if the government can regulate the right to keep and bear arms and that is not a violation of the Constitution (according to liberals like Biden) how is it unconstitutional for Texas, or any other state, to have “common sense” abortion laws? Texas basically said, OK the SCOTUS has created this right our of thin air and any attempt to ban it completely is deemed as an assault to a right that is not actually in the Constitution BUT we can regulate that alleged right. Joe Biden denounced the Texas law almost immediately after it was signed by the governor. He waited nearly all day long to talk to America about the 13 US Service Members he allowed to be murdered in Afghanistan. Funny how liberals are OK with violating your rights and rationalizing their actions but when a “right” they like (they make up a lot of rights too, like the right to housing, to food, to free college etc) they scream about the Constitution that they routinely ignore. More states need to act like Texas and do what they want while ignoring the federal government.

5. Social Security is a scam that has been in existence since FDR imposed it upon us. It is not now what it was intended to be and has morphed into many things including disability insurance. It was supposed to be a way for workers to put away money for retirement BUT the government actually taxed those working to pay for those who were retired. The scheme worked well when there were 16 or so workers for every retiree but now there are about 3 workers for every retiree. You couple this with the baby boomers all retiring and there is not going to be enough money to pay for the program. The real reason though, that Social Security is running out of money is because in the 1960s under LBJ the government decided to take all the money collected each month for Social Security and put it in the general fund and issue a government bond (an IOU) for the money. Then the money was spent on other things politicians felt like wasting it on. Now the fund cannot pay retirees with what is collected each month and needs to cash in the IOUs. But the government is 30 TRILLION dollars in debt so it can’t pay the IOUs. It has to borrow money to make ends meet. The government has been trying for years to make SS whole by increasing the percentage of income taxed, by raising the amount of income it is collected on (but not the amount higher earners get when they retire) and the government has floated ideas like means testing. This means if you make too much money in retirement (if you were responsible and saved) then you will not be eligible to get SS. There are also ideas about taxing the rich (this eventually hits everyone) to make SS whole again. They took what YOU paid in. They spent it and left an IOU and then they want to tax YOU more to pay off the IOU. What a great racket. SS should not be a plan at all and should be abolished (continue to pay out to those who are drawing it and those over a certain age who will retire and draw it until they die off) but if we will not do the right thing and get rid of it (can’t do that, politicians like to use it as a club to scare old people into voting for them) then the money collected should go into an account that belongs solely to the person who paid in and cannot be touched by government. Federal workers have a plan called the Thrift Savings Plan. They elect to put a certain amount of money each pay into it and it grows over the years and they have a good retirement. If we forcefully take the money of workers for SS why not invest it in the TSP? Allow all workers to elect which funds their money goes in to and they control it. When they retire they will have a larger return on their money and they will not get screwed out of the money by the government (and can pass it to their heirs). I imagine the federal government will never allow this to happen because many workers will have greater wealth in retirement and they will not have to worry about bills. Government won’t be able to scare them for votes. But if I were in charge this is what I would do. For disability I would impose a small tax on imports to fund that. Make others pay the freight, so to speak.
