  • Scattershots – 10oct14 (updated 12oct14)

    George Rebane The dilemma of socialism is that it needs large masses of the ignorant and poor to stay in power.  Socialists know that public policies which enable and empower the individual will grow the economy but doom collectivist governance. Los Angeles gets a new national monument that President Obama will dedicate on his most recent fund…

  • Ruminations – 30sep14

    'My Uncle Frank in Chicago was a staunch Conservative, and voted straight Republican until the day he died.  Since then he has voted Democrat.'  (H/T to reader) George Rebane Measure S proponents have an ex parte court hearing tomorrow to change the wording on the ballot that has been known to all since last April.  These…

  • Walking Back Climate ‘Science’ & Policy (updated 22sep14)

    Forgive them Father, for they know not what they do.  Luke 23:34 George Rebane On the front of the 20sep14 edition of WSJ is a top-of-the-page herald that reads ‘Climate Science is NOT Settled’ (emphasis theirs; source of filched photo).  I have waited at least ten years for the world’s preeminent newspaper to publish a…

  • While Waiting for a Backbone (updated 12sep14)

    George Rebane We anxiously await President Obama’s foreign policy speech tomorrow in which he will again make “perfectly clear” a strategy with which no one, and I do mean NO ONE, in the world has seen as anything but meak, muddled, or missing.  RR is on record as one of the earliest to recognize that…

  • Water, water everywhere, … (updated)

    George Rebane Water, water everywhere, but not a drop is yours. California’s drought induced by nature and amplified by government has migrated from reasonable discussion to political expedience.  This ongoing problem in our state has drawn much interest from RR readers, especially those living in the Sierra foothills where water is still abundant. Sacramento and…

  • Scattershots – 21aug14 (updated 22aug14)

    George Rebane Here is something for the data archeologists and anthropologists of the distant future – three disparate areas that share in the wholesale insanity that is ending America as we have known it.  But more important to note is that not many care about these issues. Gilead Sciences’ Sovaldi is a stupendously successful drug to…

  • The Externality of Externalities

    George Rebane OK boys and girls, time for a little review of an arcane notion of economics that is the darling of socialists cooking up ever more ways to make our lives miserable.  An externality of some good or service traded at market price is the attributed added cost to society that the consumption of…

  • NGOs, come one, come all!

    George Rebane Nevada County is the home of record to one of the largest covens of non-governmental organizations and 501c3 foundations.  Most of these organizations are devoutly leftwing and doing their best to bring forward and implement the objectives of UN’s Agenda 21 (while loudly decrying anything of the sort).  Their work product has contributed…

  • We can’t think about Common Core, or anything else …

    George Rebane When seeking solutions to society's problems, always hold government guilty until proven innocent. Modern progressivism is the most cynically named socio-political ideology since the world of Orwell’s 1984.  Evidence abounds that there is literally nothing progressive for organizing human society in the (niggardly revealed) tenets and expanding practice of progressivism – it gives…

  • Rumblings of the Great Divide

    George Rebane A main theme and designated category of posts in these pages is the idea of the Great Divide.  The idea has been growing for some years now as the country polarizes, taking opposite sides of achieving objectives for the future organization of society best summarized under Agenda 21 (q.v.).  While not embraced solely…
