Monstrous Big Tech company Google (Market Cap: $1 trillion) does a whole lot of throwing its monster weight around – to the detriment of just about everyone else. Likely the stupidest of the many very stupid defenses of monstrous Big Tech companies like Google is: “Well, start your own Google.” Monstrous Big Tech company Microsoft…
Google – is a monster. The monster parent company Google created is Alphabet – whose monster Market Cap is $1.03 trillion. Monster Google has made a LOT of its money – and thus acquired its monster size – via monster theft. And, of course, the bigger Google gets – the more power it has to…
The Year of Our Lord 2020 – has been a long stretch of very bad road. Fair is foul – foul is fair. Down is up – up is down. Swine are sprouting pinions and taking to the air. I think often of the cinematic classic “The Lion in Winter”: Henry II: “The day those…
Hypocrisy – is a part of being human. Human nature is immutable. So occasional lapses into hypocrisy are understandable. That doesn’t entirely excuse hypocrisy.

No one is behaving rationally. “It is because the Left is currently running things. They have been rapidly advancing – and almost no one is doing anything to stop them.” The Left’s…
The Marxist morons burning, looting and destroying large swaths of our nation – are a lot of really awful things. One thing on which they are absolutely awful? Respect for private property. A flaw they share with many elected Democrats. These masked marauders can’t destroy private property – and/or steal it to establish myriad CHOP/CHAZ…
We have oft documented the decades’ worth of really awful trade deals in which the United States has participated. Chief country amongst the many with whom we’ve cut really awful deals – is, of course, Communist China. Our very stupid trade deals have bled millions of jobs from US to China.
