A Nod To The Gods

As with everything considered offensive or racist nobody dares speak about reasons why. To even begin a dialogue about the basic facts regarding social problems can get you labeled an extremist. That’s why the truth stings liberals, how can they save the world if reality is brought into play?

This morning I stopped for my coffee and saw two women getting out of a car in front of the coffee joint. Both were pushing 400 pounds and maybe more. My ability to judge the weight of people that size is not good. Both waddled into the coffee joint and order food for twenty. The reason people are fat is they eat too much and exercise too little. In a rich, modern country like America, even the poorest of the poor have too much food and too much leisure. The typical ghetto dweller has a flat screen, cable, an XBox and cabinets full of treats. They spend their afternoon smoking blunts, eating Doritos and playing Gears of War.

My solution has two parts. First, food must get more expensive for fat people. Therefore all retail food must be priced by the pound – of the customer. The two fat asses who waddled into the coffee shop would weigh in and their food would be priced accordingly. Their bagel would be twice the price of my bagel, for example. Since I’m only 20 pounds overweight, BMI is probably a better measure. The fatties were at least 200 pounds over limit so their food should cost ten times the price of my food. read more

The other leg of my plan is to move all parking spaces 100 yards from food establishments. If the fatties had to walk the length of a football field to get their feedbag on, I’m betting they make other choices. On the other hand, if they still had to have handfuls of bacon and bagels, they would have to put some work in before and after. My bet is these tubs of goo would simply stay home. People who get that fat are so lazy even food is not enough to get them exercising. But, it would keep them from the buffet line and that’s the point.

There is no mystery.

There’s a reason why Western nations have until very recently favored the employment of White males in their positions of public authority: it’s smart recruitment. We want intelligent, cooperative public servants who are capable of both identifying with the people they govern and making the tough decisions nevertheless.

The boring old White male, that Gentile schmuck, with his unsophisticated old notions of honor and patriotism and objectivity and personal responsibility, is a safer bet here than his feminine counterpart or his swarthier-hued cousins. And that’s why the ‘system’ privileges them…

We’re doing our best to make smart decisions in an information-limited world. And this is where the “privilege! privilege! privilege!” accusation starts to ring hollow. This is a normal practice. Why are you so worked up about it? We need a certain type of guy in our uniform here.

There’s no mystery. There’s no mystery to ‘racism’; people want to see their own thrive. There’s no mystery to ‘sexism’; men and women are different. And there’s no mystery behind ‘White male privilege’ either (or any of its other variants); we prioritize the recruitment of people who are likely to excel at that activity we’re recruiting them for.

We know how ya feel kid.

Everybody seems to forget how Obamacare was passed. Here is a reminder.

We shouldn’t forget that ObamaCare was written in the dead of night by Harry Reid’s office, voted on, unread, by the Senate hours later and sent to the House which passed it “as is” so it would not have to go back to the Senate where Scott Brown’s vote would have killed it.

Therefore, there was no internal consistency check. There was no opportunity for clarifying amendments. There was no opportunity for anything Harry Reid did not think was appropriate. That is why we keep finding these unintended consequences that Obama tries to paper over with Executive Orders.

That is why the idea of “fixing” ObamaCare is a very bad idea. There are so many traps in the bill (as well as in the stacks of “rules”) that no one could untangle the mess. This is just like a badly designed web site. Best to start all over than try to add undocumented patch upon undocumented patch in a vain attempt to fix it.

The IRS has been holding up decisions on conservative non-profits due to political agendas, it’s a fact. So to get around the existing rules Democrats made new ones. Nothing is set in stone and the new regs have not been voted on yet the GOP is arm wrestling with Harry Reid over Ukraine funding using these same new IRS rules. This is incredulous. How does freedom of speech protected by the constitution get tangled up in Ukraine aid? And how exactly is it possible that these new IRS regulations are going forward without so much as a squeak from Republicans.

Looks like the new IRS regulations are now a bargaining chip before they are even debated, which basically makes them a defacto done deal, amazing. Democrats have pulled the wool over the GOP again and they don’t even realize it. How pathetic.

One additional problem with the reform package is that in order to offset the costs, the Senate bill takes money away from the US Army and Navy. House Republicans meanwhile want to do something useful…use this bill or a separate one to tie the IMF money to a one year delay in the anti-free speech regulations Obama’s IRS is currently set to enact.

Only 17 GOP Senators stood up yesterday and opposed Harry Reid’s effort to reduce America’s influence at the IMF and to preserve the House’s leverage to block the Obama IRS regulations.

The more I see from the current batch of Republicans the more I realize it’s time for a third party. I swear they are out thinking the room, and thus, over thinking the issues.
