I love Rick Santorum

First, I've got to be more precise, I love his honesty about his mid 17th century opinions, and be upright about his insane views.  This guy who clearly didn't understand Kennedy's speech about the separation of church and state -- that by the way allowed Santorum, a catholic, to run for president.  He doesn't understand why the founding fathers wanted separation (so that the European state conflicts would not appear in America).

This is a man who is against contraception (probably also against vasectomies?), against abortion at any cost, against women at work, and now against education for Americans (a guy who has BA, MBA, JD...).  Get this, America's right is eating it up, they love this stuff.

I love Santorum for his honesty, unlike his friends (those who are running, and those who are not) that speak in code, the kind of code that gave us "separate but equal" and "intelligent design".  No Santorum would gladly bring 'merica back to the 17th century, and his proud to say so.  It say's something about America's republicans love a freedom that they are basically siding with a guy who thinks that Iran has got the right answer -- frankly, I bet you all that he's also for religious police to monitor sexual activity.  I wish that someone would ask him the question that Kennedy when he ran:  Will you take your guidance from the Pope or the people?

what people get wrong about tariffs

 The issue is simple. What percentage of the economy is dependent on tariff goods? The truth, is that the US economy is far more closed than people understand. People genuinely believe that all manufacturing has ceased to exist in the United States all given to China on the altar of woke policy the truth can be further from That statement. Only about 15% of US GDP is related to foreign trade. Of that amount, slightly more than half is from Canada in Mexico. And half of that is energy. What that means, is that about 7% of US GDP is tariff dependent. The proof in the pudding, is how little money tariff generates. People think that 30 or 50 billion is a lot it’s not in an economy that has $3 trillion. The impact on the US economy will be less visible but not absent. Inflation hasn’t occurred yet first because tests have hardly started to bite, but more importantly it’s such a small percent of the economy. Now certain things are critical. The rare earth metals from China were critical....

Trump and Venezuela...

The US now owns Venezuela…and not in a good way.  America is not known for its nation building skills, and yet it now owns the disaster that is Venezuela.   Starvation and exodus are the natural progression.   In addition it will become a haven for narco-terrorists, more so than it already was. I am sure that Trump and his friends really thought that little attack very well…I guess that he will now attack Iran now.  

Demographics

 I am preparing a kind of family tree for our children so that they know where they came from.  In my family I am the only survivor, although my brother and sister died recently they were both in their seventies (a story I told already).    It was a fun process, but it provided more than that.  First, I married relatively young I was 26 when I married and nearly 30 when our first child was born.   I was looking at my ancestors.  On my mother's side, she had 6 siblings, Four died before the age of 30, two in war, and two from illnesses.  Only she and a single sister survived.   The two boys had a child each but they died in WWII, and the other sister died as an infant.   what is interesting is that every one of my mother's siblings had children in their early 20s.   I know that my mom was hardly 20 when my brother was born.    What is remarkable is that among our friends, we are the only ones to have fou...
