It seems like an eon ago – but it was really less than three years ago – we wrote the following…published four days before Donald Trump’s Inauguration. Undoing Obama: Who Should Do Which Government Rollbacks? “A key component in the Trump-Republican Rollback – is a regulatory triage. Determinations must be made – about which regulations…

When I initially wrote this headline – I had written “THE Nuisance….” It, of course, immediately thereafter occurred to me – that there are hundreds (thousands?) of such agencies, boards, bureaus, commissions and departments. So I went with “YET ANOTHER Nuisance….” The Deep State…is REALLY deep. Filled with hundreds (thousands?) of agencies. Populated by millions…
America’s Left has certainly evolved. Fifty years ago, it was the Left who didn’t trust Big Brother – and wanted to stick it to The Man. Now – they LOVE Big Brother. Because they now are The Man. The Left now runs nearly everything. And has for quite a long while. The Left with ever-increasing…
Behold the Internet. A free speech-free market Xanadu – developed entirely by the eternal wonderment of unfettered free markets. The Left has ignored entirely the ongoing, rolling success of the government-free Net – and instead incessantly proclaimed looming doom if we didn’t immediately impose massive government upon it. The very dumb regulations of which most…
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has wisely, rightly stopped from going forward most of the legislation House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has passed and sent his way. In the Donald Trump Age of Nicknames (which thus far no one delivers as well as the President) – Pelosi has one for McConnell. Nancy Pelosi Calls…

An utterly pathetic school system which produces far too many people who can’t read the diplomas they’re handed – but can all roll a condom on a banana. College IS for Dummies to be sure – a festering cesspool of totalitarian…
When President Donald Trump was Candidate Donald Trump – he promised a restoration of the US manufacturing sector. Which his predecessor – thankfully-ex-president Barack Obama – dismissed as impossible: “When somebody says – like the person you just mentioned, who I’m not going to advertise for – that he’s going to bring all these jobs…
As we have very often pointed out, the US spent the last half century-plus very stupidly outsourcing our prosperity to the rest of the planet. This has been devastating to the middle class. A vital, once-thriving driver of our once very successful nation – we have spent decades thinning this essential herd to near extinction.…
We are in the midst of a worldwide anti-globalist nationalist movement. The first major move – was Brexit. Great Britain voting three years ago to get the heck out of the ridiculous European Union (EU). And reassert its national primacy and sovereignty on such things as immigration and trade. Up next was the United States’…
The World Trade Organization (WTO): “(I)s the only global international organization dealing with the rules of trade between nations.” As with nigh all global organizations – much of what the WTO does is unfairly tilted against the United States. (See also: The United Nations.) The WTOs anti-Americanism is oft embodied in how the organization gives…
