You Owe The Federal Government $448,778. And So Do Your Kids.
That's each of your children, grand children and any other living offspring. You think anything the government hands out is “free?” It’s not anything close to it. Everything they do costs twice as much as it would if done in the private sector and they spend like drunken sailors shoveling piles of debt onto your children and grandchildren as they go hoping you won’t notice until it’s too late. What do they care? It’s not their money they are spending… it’s YOURS.
That’s the amount owed by every citizen of the United States for all the “free” things that have already been handed out and promised by the federal government. It doesn’t count the additional free things that the Democrats are promising which will multiply that amount to around $9,000,000 for every man woman and child citizen of the United States. That’s right, EVERY man, woman and child will owe the federal government around NINE MILLION DOLLARS if the Democrats are elected and hand out all the “free” stuff they vow to hand out. And it also doesn’t count what you owe to state and local governments.
The Democrat’s platform is a bankrupt your children and grandchildren plan plain and simple.
Good luck, your kids already owe almost a half million dollars each that they are going to have to pay back in tax increases. Want to go for 9 million each instead? Vote Democrat.

Relationship Killers
Some problems in relationships can be tackled as a couple but some problems are a lot harder to solve. In fact, some of the relationship problems listed here just can’t be fixed. Look for the symptoms early in a relationship. The longer you wait to fix or terminate, the harder it becomes.
No Respect For Each Other
This is probably the number one reason for failed relationships. It manifests itself by contempt, finger-pointing, sarcasm and so forth. If both partners are unwilling to compromise, things will get worse until there is no coming back.
Needless Arguments
There will be times when you disagree on an issue. Agree to disagree. No one wins when one of you always has to be right.
Chronic Infidelity
Nothing can be more exhausting in a relationship than a serial cheater. Such a relationship can be repaired but only if the unfaithful partner is prepared to leave the affair behind.
Secrecy
We all need time apart but what we do in our free time shouldn’t be some great mystery. There’s a difference between privacy and secrecy. Too much secrecy leaves you feeling emotionally abandoned. A relationship needs sharing and openness.
Incompatible Sex Drives
A mutually fulfilling sex life is incredibly important in a long-term relationship. You should establish your sexuaI compatibility early on; it cannot be fixed later.
Not Able To Open Up To Each Other
If one of you prefers to keep your emotions bottled up, you will end up distancing yourself from your partner, giving up prematurely.
An Avoidant Partner
If your partner is avoiding and dismissive it’s going to be difficult. It can turn a calm and self-assured person into a bundle of neediness.
Narcissism
Maintaining a relationship with a narcissistic partner is an uphill battle. It is not uncommon for the narcissistic partner to sometimes throw a bone here and there, giving the other partner hope but most of the time they will criticize you for making their life miserable.
If you detect any of these in yourself, start working on it... if you treasure your relationship.
Remember, today is the first day of the rest of your life. Make it memorable.

rep. King, you'll have to go.
Perhaps the 70 year old GOP representative is just too out of touch with society.
The things he says indicates, that it is time to retire.

GOP Rep. Steve King has a history of controversial remarks. Here's some that riled people up
Linh Ta,USA TODAY•August 14, 2019
Rep. Steve King has a penchant for creating uproar across the nation with his comments.
While defending his remarks, the Iowa Republican has generally claimed he is misquoted and that he doesn't trust most media outlets. But for many Democrats and Republicans, his comments have gone too far.
King is currently under fire for comments he made while defending his stance of not allowing exceptions for rape and incest in anti-abortion legislation he tried to pass in Congress. He questioned whether there would be any population left, if it were not for "rape and incest," King said during a meeting with the Westside Conservative Club on Wednesday.
"What if we went back through all the family trees and just pulled those people out that were products of rape or incest? Would there be any population of the world left if we did that?" he said at the Westside Conservative Club in Urbandale, Iowa. "Considering all the wars and all the rapes and pillages taken place and whatever happened to culture after society I know I can't certify that I'm not a part of a product of that.
Here's a history of some of King's controversial remarks.
King questions why "white nationalist," is offensive language
In an interview with the New York Times, King questioned why "white nationalist," among other terms, are deemed racist language.
“White nationalist, white supremacist, Western civilization — how did that language become offensive?” King said in an interview with the Times that published Jan. 10. “Why did I sit in classes teaching me about the merits of our history and our civilization?”
King said not all cultures contribute equally to society
King said presuming all cultures are equal devalues the "founding fathers" while arguing with an event attendee at a town hall in Webster County, Iowa. He said that by acknowledging that every culture is equal and contributed equally to society it reduces, "...the contributions of the people that laid the foundation for America and that's our founding fathers," King said at the event on May 28, 2019, in Fort Dodge.

"I'm an Independent"
Says a lot of people who are too ashamed to say they are Democrats. It's a cop out. They are constantly spew in left wing ideology but refuse to admit they are actually Democrats. I guess they are trying to save what little face they have left. I feel sorry for real Independents for having to share their political beliefs with phony Democrats who are hiding behind their collective skirts.
Foul Language
All our talk was peppered with the “F” word in the schoolyard in my early teens. That’s just the way it was and seemed perfectly normal, but it never occurred to me that grownups also used that kind of language. After all, we weren’t allowed to use it in their presence, so obviously they disapproved of it. I still clearly remember being shocked the first time I inadvertently heard the word “fcuk” come from the mouth of an adult.
I’ve not been a prolific swearer since I left school. It doesn’t come as naturally to me as it does to some, and I sometimes have to deliberately increase my output to fit in with the company I am in. I don’t feel comfortable using bad language in the presence of women, and that is because when I was young, men tended not to. I certainly would never go further than a “bloody” in front of children, and only then if unavoidable.
Things are different these days, if there isn’t a fcuk in your sentence it is considered grammatically incorrect. Grandchildren are ordered back into the fcuking house before they have to be come and fcuking got by their grandparents quite regularly in some neighbourhoods.
I’m not condemning or complaining; it might not suit my sensibilities but I recognise that times change and the significance of things alters. The only thing I would say against the increased prevalence of extreme language is that it has tended to decrease its potency; the exclamation “BASTARD!” on, say, just missing your bus, or hitting your thumb with a hammer, is nowhere near as cathartic as it used to be.

Our brilliant protector....and his promisses....
One by one, he's keeping them. China, jobs, economy, Korea, etc. Now he says he'll do something reasonable on guns in the wrong hands. Watch him. But his latest act is to begin reinforcing a law that has been part of immigration policy for decades, until partially reversed in 1999, mostly by dems. And by a few wussified others, so affraid of illogically being called racist. Now immigrants must not be on the dole too long, or it's back to the hell holes from whence they came. Just hope he would also reinstitute the effective Sponsor system. Our great President Trump. MARA. Make America reasonable again. Just watch the country hating---vote pandering moonbats piss and moan about it, and begin law suits. All go to the SCOTUS. Imagine that. Hardy har har har.
Panic
I don’t have much patience with people who panic, because panic is just uncontrolled fear; and fear can be controlled… once you understand it.
I can remember when we first saw action in Caprivi. We were young, not prepared to die and shit-scared. We thought we were cowards. Our platoon sergeant should have been a psychologist. He stated that dying for your country is bullshit; you have to make the enemy die for their country. That had the lot of us laughing and he instantly won our confidence.
He said that it’s normal to have fear and told us that he’s scared too but knowing and admitting to it, enables him to deal with it. He said that once we’ve “seen the elephant”, the cause for fear will become routine and we’d be able to deal with it. “But never deny that fear,” he added, “for that will get you killed very fast.”
And he was right. The first time under enemy fire it was terrifying but we got used to it eventually and it became routine. But it does not become routine by itself. You need plenty of exposure to it. And once you have conquered one fear, it becomes easier to conquer another.
I’m inclined to believe that any fear can me mastered with enough exposure to it.
The beauty of it all is that once you have learned how to handle your own fears, you recognize and respect – even admire – that ability in other people. Nothing can fascinate me more than seeing people performing well under hazardous conditions.
I dedicate this blog to all those people who work under dangerous conditions.
Have a glorius day out there.

Anthony Scaramucci compares Trump to Chernobyl and suggests the GOP could replace him for 2020
This morning in The Huffington Post;
I would suggest to Scaramucci, that Trump already turned against the USA, each time he continually lies to the American public, when he chose Russian help prior to the election, and when he sided with Putin over US intelligence, and when he obstructed justice many times.
I however agree, that not speaking out against evil, is itself evil.
I will continue to speak out against the evils of Trump, officially the WORST president in US history, until he is removed from office.
In response to:
Anthony Scaramucci, who infamously lasted 10 days in the administration of President Donald Trump, on Sunday compared his old boss to the most notorious nuclear disaster in history and said the president’s ongoing meltdown could lead to him getting replaced on the top of the Republican ticket for the 2020 election.
“We are now in the early episodes of ‘Chernobyl’ on HBO, where the reactor is melting down and the apparatchiks are trying to figure out whether to cover it up or start the clean-up process,” Scaramucci told Axios, comparing Trump’s presidency to the TV drama about the 1986 nuclear disaster in Ukraine, which was then part of the Soviet Union.
“A couple more weeks like this and ‘country over party’ is going to require the Republicans to replace the top of the ticket in 2020,” he said.
The former White House communications director has turned into a sharp critic of his ex-boss.
He said last month that Trump’s attacks on four women of color in Congress were “racist and unacceptable.” Last week, he called Trump’s visit to El Paso, Texas, to see survivors and first responders of the mass shooting there a “catastrophe” and “a bad reflection on the country.”
And on Saturday, he warned that Trump will eventually turn on the entire country.
In his latest critique of the president, Scaramucci said that unless Trump changes his tune soon, Republicans will start to look for a “replacement” to run in 2020.
“Right now, it’s an unspeakable thing,” he said. “But if he keeps it up, it will no longer be unspeakable.”
He also Tweeted;
“Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless.
Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.”

Not Just Australia
Thousands of years before the arrival of the British, another continent was settled by the indigenous people of the time...
Hey! Why does this sound so much like Australia?
Maybe our in-house historian will be so kind to complete the history for us.
Or maybe he only knows the Australian history.
