  • The Socialistic Socialization of Socialism (updated 6mar20)

    George Rebane Some thoughts on Super Tuesday 2020.  Socialism is a form of organizing society and the economy, a form unknown to our younger generations.  They have been taught in our schools all about the mythical glories of socialism, and no history of what actually happens when countries have adopted it.  Today they are saturated…

  • Fair Share Taxing

    “Since this is an era when many people are concerned about ‘fairness’ and ‘social justice’, what is your ‘fair share’ of what someone else has worked for?”  Thomas Sowell. George Rebane Our socialist and proto-communist politicians have no policies to grow economies and generate wealth.  Instead, they buy their way into office by promising to…

  • GDP and Earth’s Temperature (updated 9feb20)

    George Rebane Most well-read people look at Gross Domestic Product as the gold standard of our economy’s performance.  And all know that GDP growth will cure almost all the ills we still see in the economy.  But when we take a deeper look at how the GDP statistic is concocted, we discover that it’s really…

  • Ruminations – 5jan20 (updated 6jan20)

    George Rebane On hubris and nemesis in the Deep State – an interview (here) with Victor Davis Hanson sheds some new light on the goings on in the unelected state within a state.  (H/T to correspondent) Consulting Congress required?  The Constitution is very specific on the matters of national security that require the President to…

  • Scattershots – 27dec19 (updated 31dec19)

    George Rebane Well, here are a handful of observations on the progress the progressives are making to fundamentally transform America into a second-world autocracy that will look nothing like what our Founders intended to bequeath us, and nothing like the America many of us older folks have enjoyed and learned about.  And about which the…

  • When Compassion Kills

    George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 18 December 2019.] ‘Tis the season of peace, joy, and giving, of both the complimentary and compassionate kind.  Every year during these weeks we are deluged with pleas to open our wallets for uncountable good causes.  ‘Twas ever thus.  But compassionate…

  • Democrat Public Education – The gift that keeps taking

    George Rebane Public schools are a government institution, and its teachers are civil servants and public sector workers.  As FDR warned more than 80 years ago, unionizing public sector employees is a very bad idea, and that has proven to be true over the intervening generations.  And nowhere is this more apparent than in what…

  • Democrats’ Big Lie #4688 – Voter Suppression

    George Rebane Voter fraud in America is real and bipartisan according to evidence presented by the Heritage Foundation.  To combat voter fraud, states have instituted “voter identification laws and programs to clean up wildly inaccurate voter rolls to help verify that only eligible individuals are voting, and that they are casting ballots in the jurisdictions where…

  • President Warren’s War on America

    George Rebane You can only control that which you can measure. Democrat candidate Elizabeth Warren has drawn up extensive plans to reduce the United States into a socialist second world country on its inevitable slide into full blown communism, which is the ultimate goal (whether they call it that or not) of at least half…

  • Democrats’ Big Lie #4687

    George Rebane That Republicans suppress minority voter turnouts continues as the perennial Big Lie by the Left, and forms a staple of how Democrats maintain their minority plantations, especially in the blighted urban areas they have controlled for decades.  Today’s election hysteria is based on the blatant lie that in Georgia “it was the voter…
