  • Sandbox – 19feb19

    [I think it's profitable to continue the discussion about how the progressive Left is certain about President Trump's unsuitability for office in light of his domestic and foreign policy record, and the record of investigations that to no avail have sought to nail him.  And in light and in spite of this record, how our…

  • The G-C Grid

    George Rebane In the figure below we present a grid representing the two-dimensional space over a defined range of governance, and a range of collectivistic social orders.  The governance (G) range encompasses a continuum starting with anarchy at G = 0, and progressing all the way to one world global government at G = 10. …

  • Norm Sauer replies to Rich Howell

    [Mr Sauer submitted the following response to Mr Howell’s 11mar17 critique of Mr Sauer’s Union column on renewing America’s public education system.  My own response to Mr Howell is found here.  gjr] Norm Sauer Rich Howell, a retired union member educator, attacked my column “Making Education Great” wherein I demonstrated by factual examples Democrat senators…

  • Nothing good from the good ol’ days

    George Rebane [This is the transcript from my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 28 April 2016.] Conservatives, and even some libertarians for good measure, are accused of wanting to bring back the America of the early post-war years – the period from, say, 1945 to 1960. When any of the progressive media find someone prominent…

  • Scattershots on Cultural Change

    George Rebane I am a child, student, and defender of Western civilization.  Today I mourn.  Stanford JD Heather MacDonald of the Manhattan Institute informs us all how ‘The Humanities Have Forgotten Their Humanity’.  I mourn more deeply because it is at my alma mater where the coup de grace is being delivered.  UCLA has been…

  • Memorial Day – 27 May 2013

    George Rebane [The following was originally posted on 30 May 2011, it applies today more than ever.] Today we remember and honor the military service men and women who died for us, and those who have yet to come home.  We sent them into harm’s way to keep harm away from us and our loved…

  • On inanities after the Boston bombings

    George Rebane The tragic terrorist bomb blasts at the Boston Marathon have been more than adequately acknowledged; I can add little of substance to the reports and sentiments. However, I do want to express some considerable irritation at how the entire affair was covered by the media, especially Fox News, in the immediate aftermath of…

  • Consolidated Confabulation

    George Rebane [This is the transcript of my regular KVMR commentary that was broadcast on 23 November 2012.] Listeners to these commentaries have rightfully come to expect the discussion of important national, international, and even cosmological issues.  This evening I wish to reduce considerably the scope of such perspectives, and focus on what should become…

  • A Look at GDP

    George Rebane Gross Domestic Product is constantly in the news.  It is the definitive measure of a country’s annual production of goods and services.  GDP is calculated in several different ways, all are supposed to be compatible.  The most often used and useful way is called the Expenditure Method that relates to the different kinds…

  • Musings on Money and Faith

    George Rebane [I have to begin this ramble with an apology.  It is long and not as tightly written and dense as the prose you have come to expect here 😉  I’m really posting it as a future reference for discussing the fiscal fiascos spreading over Europe and starting here at a capitol near you.]…
