Government pensions create moral collapse and slavery

Posted on October 6, 2021October 6, 2021 by Bookworm

People who need their retirement plans are chained to their jobs. They’ll turn a blind eye to corruption and even become obsessively loyal. See update below. This is not going to be a post about the fact that government pension plans can support corrupt systems in other countries; e.g. by

Posted on September 22, 2021 by Bookworm

Some of the things the National Archives sells are wonderful. As for other things…well, read this and see. We’ve decided to fill our home with a few of America’s most important documents.

Putting the Biden government’s COVID pressure in a proper historical context

Posted on July 18, 2021July 18, 2021 by Bookworm

With a historical perspective, it’s plain that Fauci, Facebook, and Biden are being hysterical about vaccines solely to increase their power. On Friday, Pervy Joe, the man occupying the White House, insisted that Facebook was “killing people” because it wasn’t censoring enough information about COVID. Facebook blasted back that it

A must-read thread about the real conspiracy

Posted on July 9, 2021July 9, 2021 by Bookworm

Patriots are right to believe that there is a massive Deep State conspiracy, although it may be different from the theory they’ve identified. MartyrMade took to Twitter to explain why Trump supporters and others are willing to accept completely the theory that Biden is a Pretender, not a president. In

In 1760, Charleston, S.C. faced what was to become known as the Great Small Pox Epidemic. In a city of 8,000 people, most of whom had no immunity, small pox spread during the early months of 1760. The response of Charlestonians was superior to the response of modern society to

Here’s a clever, depressing, and creepy video. I’m working on another idea, but it’ll be a little while before I have it up:

A proposal to amend presidential term limits — by a Guest Author

Posted on October 23, 2020 by Bookworm

I always enjoy it when people think out of the box. The same guest blogger who was brain storming ways to make elections more fair has come up with a suggestion about making the president’s office less of a “thing.” I find the idea intriguing and wanted to share it

It’s no surprise to learn that FBI agents knew about the anti-Trump coup and stayed silent

Posted on September 25, 2020September 25, 2020 by Bookworm

Newly released FBI texts show that middle-class people will usually ignore principles and take whatever path helps them pay their bills. In May 2017, Trump fired James Comey. Comey, of course, presented himself (he still does) as the most virtuous man in Washington. But even then, before we knew that

Where government gets its money

Posted on June 5, 2020 by Bookworm

Talking with a young person about how the government gets its money saw me making an analogy to my mother crying decades ago over an empty bank account. When I was a little girl, we weren’t living in poverty, but we were hanging onto my mother’s cherished middle-class lifestyle by

Lulu lives in a shutdown city, and thinks that there are ways to open up businesses while keeping safe because people’s huge sacrifices can’t go on forever. My friend Lulu sent me an essay about what she’s experiencing in one of the cities that’s been hit hard by the virus

COVID-19: Behavior changes mean we’re not victims

Posted on April 11, 2020 by Bookworm

Seeing COVID-19-related behavioral changes in Walmart, especially among African-Americans, told me that we can control our destinies and reopen America. I’ve always been a rather fastidious person, but that went stratospheric in around 2003, which was the year that I stumbled non-stop from one cold to another for almost eight
