Trump another terrible statement

Its Friday, and really I cannot say that I am surprised.  A few days ago, the internet was agog at Trump's latest and greatest, which was to basically say that a 2004 dead American soldier was a traitor, that his father was a ISIS sympathiser and that his wife was afraid of her husband -- as all good muslims women should be; that was the end of Trump.

Guess what not even close:

In the last few days and in no particular order:


  1. ISIS was created by Obama and Clinton
  2. That if Clinton wins then those who support the second amendment (guns) should do something, maybe.
  3. The NYT should lose its accreditation ('cause they've been such strong supporters of Clinton...not)

That's in seven days; its not really important but the facts are that ISIS was created in the late 1990 and became what it is today in the early 2000 -- so maybe Bill Clinton -- but Hilary was only his wife then!  As for inciting violence against clinton -- second amendment remedies are usually meant as armed revolved -- the whole point of the second amendment (a well organized militia...).

The point is that nothing sticks to Trump because his supporters just don't care, they don't read the papers they are not interested in mainstream media -- they like Rush they like their crazies that it.  David Frum said it best, bottom line Trump is not speaking to us.  He is talking to they tired the (feeling) oppressed white blue collars who feel they got a raw deal (not entirely false).  Although they have no share in the greatest economy, if they had they would have made a fortune, they have little education and what they do have has not prepared them for the new world -- because in their mind the world has changed and has left them behind.  

Some compare Trump to Hitler, probably the right time frame but the wrong country my thinking is that Musolini is a much better "example" of Trump.  As a friend always says:  look it up on google!

Ok so I lied...a little (revised)

When we began looking at farming in 2013/14 as something we both wanted to do as a "second career" we invested time and money to understand what sector of farming was profitable.  A few things emerged, First, high-quality, source-proven, organic farm products consistently have much higher profit margins.  Secondly, transformation accounted for nearly 80% of total profits, and production and distribution accounted for 20% of profits: Farmers and retailers have low profit margins and the middle bits make all the money. A profitable farm operation needs to be involved in the transformation of its produce.  The low-hanging fruits: cheese and butter.  Milk, generates a profit margin of 5% to 8%, depending on milk quality.  Transformed into cheese and butter, and the profit margin rises to 40% (Taking into account all costs).  Second:  20% of a steer carcass is ground beef quality.  The price is low, because (a) a high percentage of the carcass, and (b)...

Spray painting Taylor Swift G650 aircraft (updated)

 First, a bit of paint will not harm anyone.  These climate activities are going to learn two things in the next few days:  (1) Trespassing at an airport is a felony almost anywhere in the world.  That means criminal prosecution.   (2) removing paint from an aircraft is expensive.   So these climate activists are about to find out the reach of the British criminal system and it will not be pleasant, the UK has very strict laws about that, I would be surprised if cleaning the aircraft of all the paint will cost less than $100,000.     I am sure that when they planned (premeditation) this little show they had a very valid logic to doing this.  Tonight, they are probably realizing the depth of their troubles.   I understand that in the UK it's a minimum one-year jail sentence.    Also, good luck travelling with a criminal trespass charge against you.  I am relatively certain that the airline industry will ...

Janet Yellen from China supporter to Hawk...

There is rarely serious news in the world these days, it seems that most newspapers are filled with headlines and little else, and then Ms Yellen went to China.  Secretary Yellen has long been known in the Biden administration as the voice of moderation when dealing with China, yet as her trip which concluded yesterday a hawk was born:  She warned the Chinese against dumping goods in the United States.    fighting words! The American administration is very concerned about the lack of Chinese domestic consumption.   Even before the COVID-19 epidemic, there were already the beginning signs of a slowdown, automobile sales were off.   China is facing domestic deflation (a clear sign of collapsing demand) China imports few consumer goods, they import raw materials and intermediary goods.   It seems that the American administration is concerned that the Chinese administration will dump consumer goods abroad to keep its manufacturing machinery ...
