Month: October 2015

  • Understanding Wealth Inequality

    George Rebane Without a formalized utility, making public policy is guided by topical and anecdotal outliers.  [This is the transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 14 October 2015.] Wealth inequality has been a topic of keen interest and agitation, and concerns about it seem to be increasing, especially with our left-leaning neighbors.  Today…

  • Sandbox – 13oct15

    [Well boys and girls, let's gird our loins and prepare for the vibrant and vociferous aftermath of tonight's debate between them that's working to mount the bridge of the ship of state and holler out loud and clear, 'Haaard a'Pooort!!'  Polarized pundits predict that the lamestream CNN's moderator will just toss puffballs to Hillary.  While that…

  • Scattershots – 12oct15

    George Rebane The government is corrupt.  It’s always a tickle to note the protestations of liberals on these pages who howl when we conservetarians point out that our government is too big, inept beyond belief, costs too much, overreaches into our lives, and is hopelessly corrupt in literally all that it does.  The local leftwing…

  • The Liberal Mind – Climate Skeptical Debates are Unworthy and Should be Censored (updated 11oct15)

    George Rebane The more tightly ANY system is coupled, the more likely its performance is paced by its weakest and/or its most stupid members.  Mother Nature In the 10oct15 Union there is an opinion piece that perfectly, nay, iconically reveals the liberal mind.  ‘Let’s Have a Worthy Debate’ by local politician Heidi Hall and much…

  • Sandbox – 8oct15

    [Leaving the 4oct15 sandbox to complete the debate on rampant racism in Nevada County and on RR, we open a fresh one to permit untrammeled consideration of how the Republicans are faring in their selection of a new Speaker against the background of Hillary's Benghazi and email scandals, and the lamestream's coverage of the whole mess. …

  • Cap & Trade, a tax by any other name …

    George Rebane Liberty is not free, and efforts to make it appear so inevitably lead to tyranny. Mr Steven Frisch, who frequently shares his thoughts on these pages, has written an eloquent opinion piece in the 8oct15 Union in which he argues for compliant submission to California’s carbon cap and trade (C&T) program that became law…

  • The XQ Super School Project

    ‘A nation ignorant and free, that never was and never shall be.’, Thomas Jefferson George Rebane Two items caught my eye about our disastrous public school system that once more confirm the status of our schools, the intellectual level of our gruberized citizenry, and that teachers unions are the work of the Devil, or a…

  • Drilling Down ‘Climate Change’

    George Rebane

  • Sandbox – 4oct15

    [It turns out that socialist Connecticut, one of the most leftwing, richest, and corporatist states in the Union (hedge funds, corporate headquarters, and Wall Street mavens from NYC) "has a huge pension problem' (here).  "Connecticut has roughly half of what it needs to pay future retirement benefits for its workers, meaning the home to scores of hedge funds and some of the…

  • Obama shoots from the lip on Roseburg (updated 6oct15)

    George Rebane Predictably Barack Hussein Obama voiced his conclusions and exhortations for gun control before the Roseburg bodies had cooled, the wounded were out of surgery, and any relevant information about the shooter and the shootings had been released by the police – anything to take people’s minds off his debacles in Syria, Iraq, and…
