America, religion and social distancing

There was always something "special" about Americans and their religion.  For years, working with Mid-American fundraisers coming to Canada I had to actually tell them that "no, you cannot start your presentation about your religious beliefs"  -- seriously they were appalled that they could not discuss their belief in JC!

Now in a number of states are having constitutional fights with churches (not catholic you will note that since Gallileo are slightly more pr-science) that want to be able to "get together to pray.  Some "moron" even said that "she did not believe that you could catch Covid-19 in a church.  There no comments to that level of stupidity

As a not particularly aggressive guy with regards to religion, I take the view that if they have a death wish -- who am I to stop them.  It is well documented that a number of Koreans were infected in a religious service (supercarrier) -- at the time no one knew of the risk of covid019 still...

America has become a place of death wish for principles; (1) "socialized medicine is clearly cheaper and has, as a whole, better patient outcome -- everywhere in the world this has been proven...but in America despite the widely available evidence... (2) Guns kill it is evident that guns are a problem in America school shooting aside America has more death by guns than anywhere else in the world -- and that includes war zones! (kidding on this last one).  Still, there is a large percentage of Americans that believe that a gun will save them, (3) That Jesus will save them -- if they go to church (BTW there is literally nothing preventing anyone from praying in the privacy of their own home.  But clearly, America's Gods need s good turn out otherwise they will not listen.

Three clear cases where America has gone mad, but there are more,  These are just the low hanging fruits.  I take the view that a majority of the "must go to church" crew are "pro Trump" and that on that basis they also hate math.  So all I have to say is stay away from these bastards...and save yourself, they, on the other hand, they can be the ones that go and meet their God for real.

Hey maybe that's the driver -- it is the end of time and they want to go and meet their maker, why stop them?

OK THIS WAS MEAN -- STILL, EVANGELICALS ARE LOOKING TO THIN THEIR FLOCKS WHY SHOULD WE STOP THEM

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....

The end of Tesla?

 it takes a special kind of idiot, to think that he can antagonize his entire customer base, and think that it will not impact his business. When Elon Musk went to work for Donald Trump, and created the doge department, he antagonized every liberal, and these people represent 90% of his client base.That’s not a brilliant move. Now Elon Musk is worth hundreds of billions of dollar, so he shouldn’t care a great deal, however, he needs to care because of several other issues. The cyber truck has been a disaster, most have had to be recalled because of defective glue, it’s not a truck, it’s not a car, it’s noisy, relatively uncomfortable, but great as a development platform. What Tesla has learned in making car manufacturing more seamless is truly amazing. The problem was that Elon Musk was so pissed with the Democrats, and with Joe Biden, in particular because of some slight, which were just plain stupid too. By the way, that he decided to support with hundreds of millions of dollar, ...

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...
