We have roughly 10 more months to learn about all the candidates that are running for the major offices across our country.
The Congress gets turned over every 2 years and a third of the Senate gets turned over every 2 years. And of course at the top of the ballot is the president that can get turned over every 4 years. These are the people in the federal government bureaucracy that govern us. They are the ones interested to uphold the Constitution making sure that our liberties are made safe. It's a sad state when our liberties are being threatened by the very federal government that's beholden to protect them.
At which point do you stop voting using emotion and start voting using logic. At what point do you start doing your research so you can vote intelligently.
I remember back in 2008 when Barack Obama was running for president and I was asking people why they liked him. The most common answer I got was that he's black. That's an emotional response.
In 2016 when Hillary Clinton was running for president I asked the same question of pretty much the same individuals. Why would you vote for Hillary Clinton? And their answer... she's a woman.
At what point do we stop voting for the color of a person's skin or which set of genitals they possess? Martin Luther King Jr said it best. To be known by the content of our character. Are they honest? Do they have sound policies? Are there questionable financial dealings at may show that they're corrupt?
Logic dictates that we make an intelligent choice when we're choosing those that are going to be governing us. Voting emotionally will land us with bad actors governing us for at least two more years and at the best six.
Let's do our research and no our candidates inside and out so we can defend our vote. You can defend logic but you cannot defend emotion.
Slightly longer video. The third in one day. I was on a roll.
Inflation Returns so choices will have to be made. My Susie Q Story (how I beat diabetes) and an observation of the homeless community. Get ready because most of us are one paycheck away from our introduction to our own homelessness.
Since 1913 our government has been able to bypass the governed in order to raise money for anything... including the paying of corrupt bureaucrats and funding unpopular Foreign Wars that we have no benefit or involvement in. Here in lies a history lesson we need to be aware. If we don't learn from history we're doomed to repeat it and folks we are repeating it.
Did you know that Easter was originally a pagan holiday and existed prior to Jesus even being born? And yet churches teach this Pagan tradition as if it were related to Christ. How long will you sit under preachers who will not tell you the truth?
... they would be worth $8.20 in silver content alone. Before 1964 when silver was in our money, we could buy much more for those five dimes.
You could buy a large pizza at Little Caesars for five dimes.
You can buy nearly 3 gallons of gasoline for five dimes.
Things did not become more expensive. Our money became more worthless. That's why I advocate getting our money back on the gold standard and putting real silver in our coinage.
Hey gang just a little update here on the channel. With everything happening regarding our current political situation as well as global Shinola hitting the fan, I'm going to add an additional podcast every week on Wednesday.
A goal for the channel in October is to get to 49 members. That way locals.com will afford me more time for podcasts as well as live streaming.
I have also started moving the older podcasts into subscriber only mode. So for $5 a month you can support me and the channel and get all the back podcast as well as participate in all the chatter in the forums. Plus it will allow me to do even more for you guys. Thank you for all your encouragement and I'm ready to rock and roll this thing.
