HAPPY NEW YEAR?

I have no idea if anyone actually reads the articles I write as virtually no one appears willing to send me feedback. My friend, Freddie “Tadpole” Keel, encouraged me to write and initially set up my WordPress site and taught me how to use it. Preparing to create this posting I as more than surprised to see that I published my first article on September 17, 2010, over 7 years ago. My next surprise was to see that I have published 1128 articles, so far.

My only disappointment is that over those seven years I have received only 1141 comments. Writing is usually a way for people to make a living. For me it has always been a way to share my thoughts, beliefs and knowledge gained in my 47 year career. Starting at seventeen when I joined the Navy, 27 years, 25 in management for Lockheed, 5 years in executive management for Halliburton and 11 years in business for myself. One of my most rewarding task was writing Quality Standard Q-1, including committee structure and guidance procedures for the American Petroleum Institute. I finished my Masters degree at 47. I am a retired Registered Professional Engineer, Member of Mensa, Intertel, ASME, SPE, AQC,and a life member of the PTA.

I had my first international experience at age 28 and when I retired I had worked in 23 different countries and 49 states. I have visited in 32 countries. One unusual thing is the country I was in 33 times, Japan, was a country where I never worked a day. I changed planes in Tokyo and never set foot outside the airport flying to and from other Asian countries. The foreign countries I spent the most time in were Indonesia, Singapore, Denmark, Mexico and Canada.

I started both alone and with partners nine different companies in the US, Canada and Singapore. One thing I found interesting was the help from government agencies in starting businesses in Canada and Singapore. They helped at every step including financial with government loans.

In the United States any form of Government help to start a small business is nonexistent or hidden.

I have enjoyed 24 years of retirement and 87 years of life. The primary reason I am still alive is the love of my life, Norma, who has been my wife, partner, motivator and Judge for 57 years. My mind has not regressed but physically from my knees down I feel 97, I have seven children and counting spouses i currently have 46 in my family of grandchildren, great grandchildren and my first great great grandchild. This group has 5 Doctors, 4 Lawyers (3 too many), 5 educators, a CPA, Petroleum Engineer, Aerospace Manager, three Nurses, 6 now in college and 2 less than 6 months old. Now let me finish this walk through my life and ask everyone who reads this to tell me about your life and I will write articles about some who read my work. If family and friends were money I would be the richest man on earth. Please respond.

 

HAPPY NEW YEAR

HILLARY CLINTON FACTS! Part One

Watching politics for over 80 years reached a new low when Obama was elected the first time. After his re-election I was convinced that the average American has no idea what freedoms they are slowly losing or even care. My last article, “Joys of Muslim Women” will hopefully wake up enough females to at least know what their life will be like under Muslim laws. As I have stated before ladies just get ready to have your Burka ordered. For both parents of daughters make sure you are ready for them to be mutilated by law and suffer the rest of their lives.

I plan to continue this series of articles on what Hillary Clinton will enact or continue if she is elected as our next President.

GAY RIGHTS

During her 2008 bid for the Demoncratic nomination, she refused to support same-sex marriage. My how flexible a politician can be when she flip flopped and endorsed same-sex marriage in March 2013. Two of her quotes were “gay rights are human rights” and “LGBT Americans are our colleagues, our teachers, our soldiers, our friends, our loved ones. And they are full and equal citizens and deserve the rights”.

Now she is in full support of the Obama Muslim invasion and their rights to be American citizens. Any babbling idiot fully understands that the Muslim faith does not accept “gays” in any form. One of the newest Muslim pleasures we have watched live on TV is pushing “gays” from the roof of tall buildings to see if they can soar like an eagle. Maybe Hillary will insist they get free flying lessons in America.

GLOBAL WARMING

Hillary is on record that she believes the Earth’s temperature is warming because of pollutants released into the atmosphere by man’s use of fossil fuels. She has supported cap-and-trade proposals to auction off pollution permits and using the proceeds to invest in green technology. You can be sure that “Old Bill” and her son-in-law have milked the commodity markets and are in the best position to prosper if our petroleum industry is totally destroyed by Obama. It will take the oil industry 20 years to become profitable again. You can be sure the Saudi’s will close the valves again when both the American and Russian oil industries are ruined.

Again Hillary is the “Flip-Flop Queen”. While serving as Secretary of State she also stated that the department was “inclined” to give its seal of approval to the controversial Keystone XL pipeline. At that political moment she he did not need the support from the idiotic tree hugging environmentalists who believe Keystone would result in an environmental catastrophe and increased pollution leading to global warming. Al Gore likely went berserk.

Her latest involvement was the following quote, “We’re either going to be dependent on dirty oil from the Gulf or dirty oil from Canada. And until we can get our act together as a country and figure out that clean, renewable energy is in both our economic interests and the interests of our planet, I mean, I don’t think it will come as a surprise to anyone how deeply disappointed the President and I are about our inability to get the kind of legislation through the Senate that the United States was seeking.”

Facts will be the Chinese will get most of the cheaper oil from Canada, the Saudi’s will cause the price of crude to be at least $100 a barrel again and Burlington Northern railroad and Warren Buffett can enjoy the oil transportation bonanza.

Health Care

Hillary supports universal health care, and championed her cause unsuccessfully during her husband’s presidency in 1993 and 1994. Clinton has said she still carries scars from her political battle to provide health care for all Americans.

One of her quotes was; “From my perspective, we have to lower costs, improve quality and cover everybody. What’s important and what I learned in the previous effort is you’ve got to have the political will – a broad coalition of business and labor, doctors, nurses, hospitals, everybody – standing firm when the inevitable attacks come from the insurance companies and the pharmaceutical companies that don’t want to change the system because they make so much money out of it”.

The record so far for Obamacare is a total disaster for Americans. Healthcare for the working person is no longer provided by the large Corporations as a benefit. The costs have skyrocketed for every American who is not a government employee including old folks like me on Medicare. I have no idea what Medicaid costs for the 65,000,000 Americans, the flood of Muslims and illegal aliens who pay nothing. Our veterans must use the Veterans Mis-Administration (VA) services which is far worse than those on Medicaid. The VA, like the Post Office, TVA, Amtrak and any other government managed operation is a total business disaster.

I had a new prescription filled yesterday to see if it will reduce the unsteadiness and pain from Neuropathy that is a life changing event. Two medications I have taken have not stopped the scare of falling again or the pain associated with the incurable nerve problems in my legs and feet. My wife and I pay over $800 a month for Medicare and the supplements necessary to avoid catastrophic medical expenses. This one new prescription costs $259.00 for my part for a 90 day period and if it helps it will be a blessing. I never expected to live what will be 86 years in August or to be viewed as a burden by our President, the media or the Congress and Supreme Court…

Taxes and the Middle Class

Hillary has repeatedly called for universal health care and lowering the costs of college tuition, raising taxes on wealthy Americans and helping struggling middle-class homeowners avoid foreclosure.

One of Hillary’s key quotes on helping the middle class by raising taxes on the wealthy: “One of the issues that I have been preaching about around the world is collecting taxes in an equitable manner — especially from the elites in every country. It is a fact that the elites in every country are making money. There are rich people everywhere, and yet they do not contribute to the growth of their own countries.”

Government Spending

Hillary raised concerns about the federal deficit and growing national debt during her tenure in President Barack Obama’s administration. One of her quotes on the national debt: “It poses a national security threat in two ways: it undermines our capacity to act in our own interest, and it does constrain us where constraint may be undesirable.”

Hillary did not blame Obama, however. Instead, she accused his predecessor, Republican President George W. Bush, of running up the debt by launching two wars, in Iraq and Afghanistan, in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks at the same time he successfully pushed through tax cuts that benefited the wealthiest Americans.

Another quote; “It is fair to say that we fought two wars without paying for them and we had tax cuts that were not paid for either, and that has been a very deadly combination to fiscal sanity and responsibility.

Do any of my readers have specific subjects they would like me to focus on next? If the entire media, all Progressive-Liberals, current Republican elected leadership, tree huggers, gays, illegal aliens, prisoners, Saudi’s, some European leaders and every registered dead American have their way, Hillary will be anointed Queen next January.

WOW……………………….Guess who will be “King”.

Let me wish every father a happy Fathers Day 2016 a day early. I will be waiting by the phone tomorrow to see how many of my 46 will call me.  Maybe six?

AMERICA WAS ONCE A LEADER!

Before Obama and far too many Progressives and Liberal Democratic politicians, American leaders did not apologize for our country’s prior actions. I doubt there is one single American citizen, illegal alien or dead voter that is blindly supporting Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders for President has ever read any of the following “FACTS”. In fact they would vote for a Democrat even if they did know as they are hell-bent on slashing our freedoms by ignoring and eventually destroying the Constitution.

Sadly some of these unhappy folks are in my family. Most live in Austin Texas where they were educated or have lived there so long among the Progressive-Liberals they have closed minds. As I have written before I was born a Democrat before a Republican was alive in Texas. I did not leave the Democratic Party, it left me when it changed from being the Conservative Party to what should be called the Socialist Party today. Hillary Clinton is a closet Communists and Bernie Sanders is an openly admitted Socialists. I doubt he has ever read the Constitution or the “Bill of Rights” and I have the same doubt for 99% of the group of robots I described in the first paragraph.

Although these “Blind Mice” will never read this article I pray enough who may be undecided will see that America did have some real leadership in the past. My friend Dan Fussel sent me this list of facts that motivated me to write this article. Dan is not as old as myself but we both remember these and other events that actually happened.

I hope everyone, including some in my own family, read these factual events and join me in voting for Donald Trump for President. He may not be a polished politician but he will make the rest of the polished ones either get their act together or retire and count our money they have accumulated. Many actually deserve a term in prison but we would have to pay for that too. I feel proud to just share these historical facts. Thanks Dan for stirring my memory.

FACTS

John Kennedy’s Secretary of State, Dean Rusk, was in France in the early 60’s when Charles DeGaulle decided to pull out of NATO. DeGaulle announced he wanted all US military out of France as soon as possible. Rusk responded, “Does that include those who are buried here?” DeGaulle did not respond.

When in England, at a large conference, General Colin Powell, George Bush’s Secretary of State was asked by the Archbishop of Canterbury if our plans for Iraq were just an example of ’empire building’ by George Bush. He answered by saying, “Over the years, the United States has sent many of its fine young men and women into great peril to fight for freedom beyond our borders. The only amount of land we have ever asked for in return is enough to bury those that did not return.” Silence was immediate.

 

There was a conference in France where a number of international engineers were taking part, including French and American. During a break, one of the French engineers came back into the room saying, “Have you heard the latest dumb stunt George Bush has done? He has sent an aircraft carrier to Indonesia to help the tsunami victims. What does he intend to do, bomb them?”

A Boeing engineer stood up and replied quietly: “Our carriers have three hospitals on board that can treat several hundred people; they are nuclear powered and can supply emergency electrical power to shore facilities; they have three cafeterias with the capacity to feed 3,000 people three meals a day, they can produce several thousand gallons of fresh water from sea water each day, and they carry half a dozen helicopters for use in transporting victims and injured to and from their flight deck. We have eleven such ships; how many does France have?” Silence was immediate.

A U.S. Navy Admiral was attending a naval conference that included Admirals from the U.S., English, Canadian, Australian and French Navies. During a cocktail reception, he found himself standing with a large group of officers that included personnel from most of those countries. Everyone was chatting away in English as they sipped their drinks, but a French admiral suddenly complained that, whereas Europeans learn many languages, Americans learn only English. He then asked, “Why is it that we always have to speak English in these conferences rather than speaking French?”

Without hesitating, the American Admiral replied, “Maybe it’s because the Brit’s, Canadians, Aussie’s and Americans arranged it so you wouldn’t have to speak German.” Silence was immediate.

THIS STORY FITS RIGHT IN WITH THE ABOVE…Robert Whiting, an elderly American gentleman of 83, arrived in Paris by plane. At French Customs, he took a few minutes to locate his passport in his carry on.

“You have been to France before, monsieur?” the customs officer asked very sarcastically.

Mr. Whiting admitted that he had been to France previously.

“Then you should know enough to have your passport ready.”

The American quickly responded, “The last time I was here, I didn’t have to show it.”

“Impossible’ responded the Frenchman. All Americans always have to show their passports on arrival in France!”

Mr. Whiting gave the Frenchman a long hard look. Then, he quietly explained, ”Well, when I came ashore at Omaha Beach on D-Day in 1944 to help liberate this country, I couldn’t find a single Frenchman to show a passport to.”

Today we just apologize for everything. As a boy during world war two the story of some country’s greatest war time military inventions included; France invented the “White flag” of surrender and the Italians invented back-up lights for tanks.

God Bless America and please vote for Trump. C Brewer

INTERESTING FACTS!

ANOTHER INTERESTING OBSERVATION IS THE GENERATION AND FEMALES WHO WILL LOSE THE MOST ARE THE ONES WHO ELECTED THEM TWICE.

C BREWER

California, New Mexico, Mississippi, Alabama, Illinois, Kentucky, Ohio, New York, Maine and South Carolina.

These 11 States now have More People on Welfare than they do Employed!!!

Last month, the Senate Budget Committee reports that in fiscal year 2012, between food stamps, housing support, child care, Medicaid and other benefits, the average U.S. Household below the poverty line received $168.00 a day in government support. What’s the problem with that much support?  Well, the median household income in America is just over $50,000, which averages out to $137.13 a day.

To put it another way, being on welfare now pays the equivalent of $30.00 an hour for 40 hour week, while the average job pays $20.00 an hour.

Furthermore:  There are actually two messages here. The first is very interesting, but the second is absolutely astounding – and explains a lot.  A recent “Investor’s Business Daily” article provided very interesting statistics from a survey by the United Nations International Health Organization.

Percentage (%) of men and women who survived a cancer five years after diagnosis:

U.S. 65%,  England   46%,  Canada   42%

% of patients diagnosed with diabetes -received treatment within 6 months:

U.S. 93%,   England  15%,  Canada 43%

% of seniors needing hip replacement who received it within six months:

U.S.   90%,   England  15%,  Canada 43%

% referred to a medical specialist who see one within one month:

U.S.   77%,   England   40%,  Canada   43%

Number of MRI scanners (a prime diagnostic tool) per million people:

U.S.   71,      England   14,     Canada   18

% of seniors (65+), with low income, who are in “excellent health”:

U.S.     12%,   England    2%,   Canada    6%

And now…for the last statistic:   National Health Insurance?

U.S.               NO

England         YES

Canada         YES

Check the last set of statistics!!

The percentage of each past president’s cabinet… Who had worked in the private business sector…prior to their appointment to the cabinet. You know what the private business sector is; a real-life business…not a government job.  

Here are the percentages.

38%   T. Roosevelt

40%   Taft

52%   Wilson

49%   Harding

48%   Coolidge

42%   Hoover

50%   F. D. Roosevelt

50%   Truman

57%   Eisenhower

30%   Kennedy

47%   Johnson

53%   Nixon

42%   Ford

32%   Carter

56%   Reagan

51%   GH Bush

39%   Clinton

55%   GW Bush

   8%   Obama

Unless you are blind or mindless I hope this helps explain the incompetence of this administration: ONLY 8% of them…have ever worked in private business! That’s right!   Only eight percent—the least, by far, of the last 19 presidents!

And these people are trying to tell our big corporations how to run their business? How can the president of a major nation and society, the one with the most successful economic system in world history, stand and talk about business when he’s never worked for one? Or about jobs when he has never really had one? And, when it’s the same for 92% of his senior staff and closest advisers?

They’ve spent most of their time in academia, government, and/or non-profit jobs. Or…   As “community organizers.”

Please share this!

No wonder we are going broke as profit is not a requirement for government service. By the way common sense is the factor that seems to be the missing element. It would be nice to see similar statistics for the 535 members of congress who have gone stark raving mad spending money we don’t have.

Thanks Dan for sharing these facts which seems to be overlooked by both the main stream media, women, brainwashed students, Progressives in both parties, Liberals, and all Demoncrats. C Brewer

WATCHING AMERICA SELF-DESTRUCT!

 

 

THE SADDEST EVENT IN MY 85 YEARS, WHY?

Anyone who reads my writing and most people I know are very aware that I am a conservative who has lived the American dream. Being born in 1930 I have seen this country face about every kind of enemy, civil strife, useless wars, poverty, race relations, booms and times when we used to like each other’.

I have watched the Democratic Party move from being the conservative leaders of America to a bleeding heart group of liberals. These Progressives are hell-bent on changing our Constitution and create a Socialists Democracy just like Europe is suffering from. The free World has and we are racing to become hate-filled mixtures that will eventually face civil wars that always only hurt the working level people who were duped into believing everything can be free.

Wake up people and recognize when a government starts giving you “things” free, your life has only one direction which is poverty. In my opinion, America became a world leader after World War 11. The poor, under-educated, unselfish along with many who gained both formal education and survived the hell called war. They actually had a chance to force the creation of a middle class that allowed people to share better lifestyles. Up until then success had been allowed only for the elite. This movement spread to other free nations and a wave of happiness was created.

This was not a gain for the Progressive-Liberals who had dominated America while Theodore Roosevelt was the creator of the Progressive movement that started the land grab by the government, labor barons who created near slavery and an America where 98% of the people had 5% of the wealth and the other 2% had 95% of the wealth. This was the era that really created the power of the banks who gained control of the world.

I doubt that 10% of the people who read this actually know these facts and less than 1% even care or have any interest. Until the Progressives make sure that 49% on the people can live off of the labor of another 49% who are responsible to pay taxes insurrections, wars, and hate can be used to keep 51% of the people happy. Follow the path of Bill and Hillary who reached the top 2% with charm and bullshit because the bankers knew how to lead them to accelerate the elimination of a middle class. They found the perfect successor and got Obama elected to finish the job.

Watch the Progressives keep stirring the pot with race, hate, civil discourse and anything else to make sure Donald Trump does become President. I have said this before, if he wins the nomination don’t be surprised when he is murdered.

Watching people blindly march and follow people like the Clinton’s and Obama is a sign that the Progressives have taken absolute control of of the United States future. They have slowly stripped away jobs by backing the unions to increase wages to a level that forces industry to move operations overseas to be competitive. Then they convince the drones they have created that profit was the only motive and industry is just greedy.

It would be nice to know how many of the 700 plus people who average reading my articles have actually started a successful business in America? My next question is how many people have ever started a successful business in another country?

Having started alone or with partners nine businesses in my lifetime I have gained a lot of experience. Domestically these include ones in Florida, Louisiana, Illinois, Virginia and Texas. One was in Singapore, one in Mexico and one in Canada. The unusual fact is that it was easier in the foreign countries where the government is more than helpful and a lot cheaper. The primary reason is legal fees. Even more unusual the Canadian government not only helped us, they financed the start-up and provided inexpensive office services and equipment.

The same variables were encountered in the States. Texas, Florida and Louisiana are business friendly while Illinois and Virginia are more like the federal government with insignificant, petty requirements and expensive lawyers and fees.

In America we continue to not only make it harder to start a business as the government grows larger every four years. Our government use politics and political pay back to kill job creation like the Keystone pipeline. Now they are forcing closing of entire industries like the coal and oil sector that have been in business for over a hundred years and causing thousands of workers to lose their jobs because of environmental, social and unfounded science of global warming.

NOW is the WHY? When the Progressives and bankers eliminate the middle class they have total control of the people. This will eventually eliminate the middle class and return the asset ratio back to 2% of the people owing 98% of all wealth. The Progressives will have total control again of the government and the people. Remember one fact that is never mentioned, “nothing can improve or destroy anything unless you change something”. We have witnessed seven years of destruction and it is time for change again. My wife and I just early voted for Trump who is the only one with the courage to drain the Washington swamp and let the working people have a voice.

Why don’t you take the time to comment and share this with everyone you can?

AN OLD CONSERVATIVE’S DREAM!

My good friend and golfing pal, ED Johnson, sent me a message with someone’s dream. I have decided to change the names and make several modifications, additions and express what would be my perfect dream. If someone knows who created the basic outline I will be happy to give them credit. I hope to wake up next November to and hopefully watch my dreams come true.

My dream was watching the inauguration that happened and the actions on and after January 20th 2017. 

1. President Donald Trump and Vice President Ted Cruz are sworn into office.

2. In a rare event on inauguration day, Congress convenes for an emergency meeting to repeal the illegal and unconstitutional Socialist healthcare farce known as Obamacare.  The new Director of Health and Social Services Dr. Ben Carson announces that an independent group of healthcare management professionals is hired to handle healthcare services for poor and low income people. They are also assigned the duty of eliminating Medicare and Medicaid fraud.  Government’s costs for public healthcare are reduced by 90%.  Healthcare insurance premiums for working Americans are reduced by 50%.  The move saves billions of taxpayer paid dollars.  Healthcare service in the U.S improves 100%.

3. Newly appointed department of Homeland Security Chief Marco Rubio announces the immediate deployment of Troops to the U.S. Mexico border to control illegal immigration and the immediate deportation of illegals with criminal records or links to terrorist groups.  New bio-encrypted Social Security ID’s are required by every American citizen.  Birthright is abolished. All immigration from countries that represent a threat to the safety of American citizens is terminated indefinitely. The move saves American taxpayers billions of dollars. Several prisons are closed.

4. Newly appointed Secretary of Business and Economic Development Carly Fiorina eliminates more than half of the Government agencies operating under the Obama administration saving taxpayers billions of dollars. Stocks rise 100%. 

5. Newly appointed Director of Government Finance, Rand Paul announces the abolition of the IRS and displays a copy of the new Federal Tax Return form.  It consists of one page.  The instructions consist of two pages. The Federal Reserve is audited. The move saves American Taxpayers billions of dollars and increases tax revenue.

6. Hillary Clinton is in jail, where she belongs.  Her cell is directly across from Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton who are serving time for ‘Hate Crimes”.  She bitches at them constantly from behind the bars of her cell in what some might call cruel and unusual punishment.

7. Bernie Sanders is in the “Funny Farm” (asylum), where he belongs. His room is directly across from Nancy Pelosi, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Chris Matthews and Al Franken.  They meet for tea every day at ten and discuss the success and benefits of Communism and Socialism throughout the world. They also wonder when the “Mothership”’ is going to pick them up and return them to their home planets.

8. Windows 12 is released. It is designed for humans, doesn’t try to satisfy the needs of every person on the planet, doesn’t require a degree in nuclear physics to operate and looks just like Windows 7 except it is easier to use.

9. Barack Obama flees the United States under cover of darkness and returns to his homeland of Kenya before his trial for treason begins. He deplanes on a remote jungle airstrip. It was reported that he was last seen wandering through the jungle singing “Hakuna Matata” with a chimp named “Michelle” and two monkeys named “Joe” and “Valarie”.

10. A committee is established to determine what is causing global cooling. Billions of taxpayer dollars are saved. Polar Bears and Seals were applauding the action as the enlarging ice cap was attracting too many hunters who could travel easier.

11. Dead people, illegal aliens, cartoon characters and ACORN are no longer allowed to vote. Most Demoncrat politicians, especially in Chicago, South Texas and all red states are fleeing to other states, changing their names and hiding to avoid prison.

12. The Department of Energy was abolished and the newly reorganized Department of the Interior was made responsible for the drilling, production, transportation, sale, storage and purchase of oil, gas and coal. Initial study found that America would be 100% energy independent by 2020. It was announced that any energy purchased would be from Canada and Mexico. Gasoline prices dropped to 99 cents a gallon when all federal taxes were eliminated.

13. The Department of education was eliminated and every state was notified that any person in any teaching position that made any statements to students that were in conflict with the Constitution would face prison terms. Activity to change the Constitution would be permitted but not in any classroom. In other actions public teachers would be deputized to arrest students and/or parents who do not obey written discipline guidelines.

Suddenly I woke up before I finished listing other actions that should be taken. When I have another dream I will document my dreams as Part Two. If you have suggestions of other actions that should be taken, please send me your comments and/or register them as comments on my blog.

DONALD TRUMP – PART FOUR

My reason for publishing this series is to document the factual positions that Trump has actually promised he would use to improve every one’s life in America, white, black, and yellow. He has never shown any bias except when dealing with inept individuals. There is no place on earth populated with more inept people than Washington D.C. I will repeat my reason for trying to get voters to make sure we elect a leader with a proven success record. Liking Trump is not a factor and the other individuals who are capable leaders I could support like Cruz, Fiorina, Carson or Kasich have zero chance of being nominated as they don’t have enough financial support. The rest of the candidates are pure politicians that will promise everything and deliver nothing.

If you will get beyond not liking Trump’s boisterous demeanor and focus on his agenda you will see that his overall objectives are aimed at common sense objectives that will help everyone. I don’t agree on some of his objectives or his flamboyant persona but if he can just get jobs created alone he can stop the bleeding. How many of the people running for President, both Democrats and Republicans, have created as many jobs for Americans as Trump has?  

How many politicians have we watched that have promised to fix the federal tax system? How many actually changed the system? None. Trump has promised to not only make it better for all individual Americans, but also to find ways to encourage businesses to remain in the US. He has promised to develop incentives to attract foreign businesses to move to America. His objective is to make America the most attractive place in the world to do business. Sure that is a real challenge but it is possible with a proven leader motivating Congress to perform sensibly again.

He has promised to lower the death tax and the taxes on capital gains and dividends. I have read that this would put more than $1.6 trillion back into the economy and help rebuild the 1.5 million jobs. His plan is to charge companies who outsource jobs overseas a 20% tax. He also wants to create incentives to companies that agree to move jobs back to the USA.

Trumps tax plan would allow Americans to keep more of what they earn and spark economic growth. The facts that I read reveal that his recommended personal income tax plan will be:

  1. Income up to $30,000 will be taxed at 1%.
  2. Income from $30,000 to $100,000 will be taxed at 5%.
  3. Income from $100,000 to $1,000,000 will be taxed at 10%.
  4. Income from $1,000,000 and above will be taxed at 15%.

Trump has gone on record that Obamacare is a “job-killing, health care-destroying monstrosity”. He is convinced it “can’t be reformed, salvaged, or fixed.” He feels certain that allowing real competition in the health insurance marketplace will drive prices down. Trump supports tort reform to eliminate the costs of defensive medicine and the outlandish cost of malpractice insurance. Trump is on record that Obamacare must be repealed. Based on his comments about the Canadian healthcare program I believe that Trump will support a single payer healthcare system.

Unlike most conservative writers, a plan that demands that all able bodied Americans pay into the plan is the only common sense solution to all of the problems. This would help everyone and the doctors who are having to find other occupations because of the insurance penalty. If lawyers were required to pay malpractice insurance, it might even the playing field.

Trump wants Congress to enact severe spending reforms. He pin points that it is only common sense to understand that spending more than you receives in revenue is absolute failure. He has gone on record that if America can’t stop increasing the national debt once it hits $24 trillion, no one will be able to save this country.

He has made it clear that we must cut spending. He has promised that he does not want to harm those on Medicare, Medicaid, or Social Security. His plan is to revive and increase the economy by increasing the taxable revenue to pay those costs without cutting the benefits to the recipients.

Trump has documented his objection to the only solution the Democrat’s ever have, which is raising taxes. History has proven that every time they raise taxes they destroy the economy. Trump is right in his belief and history proves that when you lower taxes you create an environment to help businesses grow, hire more workers and those new workers will be paying taxes that increase revenue. This is nothing more than “Business Common Sense 101”. C Brewer

TEN REASONS THE DEMOCRATS LOST!

Using an old Letterman Top Ten reasons to vote Democratic, I have compiled the following to explain how the Democrats lost the election this week. Thanks to my friend Allan Moore for the idea. CB

#10. Democrats demand that Americans be given the right to marry anyone they want to regardless of their beliefs or laws. Some want to be able to marry their German shepherd.

#9. Democrats believe oil companies’ profits of 4% on a gallon of gas are obscene, but when the government taxes the same gallon at 15% it’s acceptable.

#8. Democrats believe the government will do a better job of spending the money you earn than you would.

#7. Democrats believe that Freedom of Speech is fine as long as “nobody” in the world is offended by it.

#6. Democrats believe that citizens are totally irresponsible to own a gun. They are certain that local police are all we need to protect us from murderers and thieves. They are fully satisfied that someone will call 911 service so that when the police get to your home they can properly identify your body after the home invasion.

#5. Democrats believe that as long as we keep all death row inmates and terrorists alive and comfy they will adjust and can be model citizens.

#4. Democrats believe that illegal aliens have a right to vote, receive free health care, education, and Social Security benefits. They just vote to reduce the benefits for those who paid into the system to pay for it.

#3. Democrats believe that businesses should not be allowed to make profits for themselves. They should just break even, give all profits to the government instead of shareholders and let the government redistribute it to buy more Democratic votes.

#2. Democrats believe that Federal Judges need to rewrite the Constitution as often as necessary to satisfy creation of a Socialists democracy and regulate every facet of our freedoms and rights. They would demand that all government employees and federally elected politicians have to belong to the ACLU and the Sierra Club.

And, the #1 reason is, Democrats believe that it’s better to pay billions for oil to people who hate us, let Canada sell its oil to China and stop drilling our own oil because it upsets the “Tree Huggers” and the endangered beetles, gophers, or fish here in America. Democrats don’t care about the beetles, gophers, or fish in other countries.

“The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits” Albert Einstein

=======================

Thanks Allan, I could add hundreds more reasons but this should be enough for any sane voter to understand. One other major factor was the Republicans were smart enough to avoid stupid mistakes of the past and challenge Roe vs Wade. They seldom can control their emotions over this law of the land. CB

AMERICA & OIL – WHY GASOLINE IS SO EXPENSIVE!

Cruz Construction started a division in North Dakota just 6 months ago. They send every Kenworth (9 trucks) we had here in Alaska to North Dakota and several drivers. They just bought two new Kenworth’s to add to that fleet; one being a Tri Drive tractor and a new 65 ton lowboy to go with it. They also bought two new cranes (one crawler & one rubber tired) for that division. 

Dave Cruz said they have moved more rigs in the last 6 months in ND than Cruz Construction moved in Alaska in the last 6 years. 

Williston ND is like a gold rush town; they moved one of our 40 man camps down there since there are no rooms available. 

Unemployment in ND is the lowest in the nation at 3.4 percent last I checked. 

See anything in the national news about how the oil industry is fueling North Dakotas economy?

Here’s an astonishing read. Important and verifiable information: About 6 months ago, the writer was watching a news program on oil and one of the Forbes Bros. was the guest.

The host said to Forbes, “I am going to ask you a direct question and I would like a direct answer; how much oil does the U.S. have in the ground?” Forbes did not miss a beat, he said, “more than all the Middle East put together.”

It was a revised  report (hadn’t been updated since 1995) on how much oil  was in this area of the western 2/3 of North  Dakota, western South  Dakota, and extreme eastern  Montana.

Check THIS out: 

The Bakken is the largest domestic oil discovery since Alaska’s Prudhoe Bay and has the potential to eliminate all American dependence on foreign oil. The Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimates it at 503 billion barrels. Even if just 10% of the oil is recoverable (5 billion barrels), at $107 a barrel, were looking at a resource base worth more than $5.3 trillion.

“When I first briefed legislators on this, you could practically see their jaws hit the floor. They had no idea… says Terry Johnson, the Montana Legislature’s financial analyst.

“This sizable find is now the highest-producing onshore oil field found in the past 56 years,” reports The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. 

It’s a formation known as the Williston Basin, but is more commonly referred to as the ‘Bakken.’ It stretches from Northern Montana, through North Dakota and into Canada. 

For years, U. S.  Oil exploration has been considered a dead end.  Even the ‘Big Oil companies gave up searching for major oil wells decades ago. 

However, a recent technological breakthrough has opened up the Bakkens massive reserves, and we now have access of up to 500 billion barrels. And because this is light, sweet oil, those billions of barrels will cost Americans just $16 PER BARREL!!!!!!

That’s enough crude to fully fuel the American economy for 2041 years straight. 

And if THAT didn’t throw you on the floor, then this next one should – because it’s from 2006!!!!!!

U. S. Oil Discovery – Largest Reserve in the World

Stansberry Report Online – 4/20/2006 hidden 1,000 feet beneath the surface of the Rocky Mountains lays the largest untapped oil reserve in the world.

It is more than 2 TRILLION barrels. On August 8, 2005 President Bush mandated its extraction. 

In three and a half years of high oil prices none has been extracted. 

With this mother load of oil why are we still fighting over off-shore drilling?

They reported this stunning news: 

We have more oil inside our borders, than all the other proven reserves on earth. 

Here are the official estimates:

  8 times as much oil as Saudi Arabia

  18 times as much oil as Iraq

  21 times as much oil as Kuwait

  22 times as much oil as Iran

  500 times as much oil as Yemen

And it’s all right here in the Western United States!!!!!!

HOW can this BE?  HOW can we NOT BE extracting this? Because the environmentalists and others have blocked all efforts to help America becomes independent of foreign oil!   Again, we are letting a small group of people dictate our lives and our economy. WHY?

James Barites, lead researcher with the study says we’ve got more oil in this very compact area than the entire Middle east, more than 2 TRILLION barrels untapped. That’s more than all the proven oil reserves of crude oil in the world today, reports The Denver Post. 

Don’t think OPEC will drop its price even with this find? Think again! It’s all about the competitive marketplace, it has to. 

Think OPEC just might be funding the environmentalists?

Got your attention yet? Now, while you’re thinking about it, do this:

Pass this along.  If you don’t take a little time to do this, then you should stifle yourself the next time you complain about gas prices, by doing NOTHING, you forfeit your right to complain. Now I just wonder what would happen in this country if every one of you sent this to everyone in your address book.

By the way, this can be verified. Check it out at the link below!!!!!!

Cruz Construction:

  http://www.cruzconstruct.com/

Thanks Dr. Forrest for forwarding this. This enhances other articles I have written on oil and American politics. The reason we have high gasoline prices in the USA is because our government had rather support OPEC than its own citizens. Why, because we keep re-electing the same people who get money from special interests, propaganda from the brain drained tree huggers and 100% support and funds from our enemies in OPEC.

The saddest part is the people who are on welfare are the hardest hit when we have outrageous gas prices. This increases the costs of all basic needs like bread, milk and gasoline to get to the welfare office and vote to re-elect their democratic politicians. The only Democrats who vote that are not affected are those in prison and the cemeteries.

Political Advice from Abroad

I have a great Scottish friend who immigrated to Canada and then to Australia who provided me with the following advice about my article, YOUNG AMERICAN’S – YOU BLINDLY ELECTED OBAMA – NOW GET READY TO PAY FOR IT! 

His comments; 

“Strong words Clyde and no doubt heart felt. The question I would like to ask is ‘Do you want to elect the representative of the party who over ten years left the country in the largest financial mess since the Great Depression? The facts you discuss are the result of the failed financial programs of the Bush years. I recognize that your side blames the Democratic house for the mess, but Bush reigned over that and was not able to control the decline. There was no chance Obama, or anyone else, was going to fix the problems in four years, never mind the eight he is asking for. The tea-party caused the Republicans, and Bohmer, to decide to never agree to any proposal by Obama just to discredit him until the next election. That has only exacerbated the problem. Until the next President, from either side, can get bi-partisan agreements to fix the financial problems, which as I said before I think will have to include a larger tax intake, the problems you correctly outlined will never be fixed, no matter who reigns in the Whitehouse! And that would be the shame.”

 

Signed, a Middle of the Roader.

 

I removed his name. I do appreciate getting feedback on everything I write and my response was intended to explain in as few words as possible what came from the heart. I love this country, proudly served in the Navy but my respect for our government has all but disappeared. I apologize for some terms I used to explain how I feel but the Navy educated me to use some salty words when I enlisted at 17.

My response; I support the candidate who can cause the least harm. None of our politicians in Congress, the Executive Branch or the Supreme Court are honest or ethical but they neverwill be and since I started voting in 1951, never have been. Here you vote against the worst one running. I am not a democrat or a republican anymore. I have been a member of both when they represented the people rather than a cushy pension, insider stock tips, fraud, graft, bribery and theft.

I learned this in Canada during a 4 month stay in Montreal during an election. The owner of the place I lived in taught me that politics was for sale before I was 30. He placed his money in the hands of the challenger to oust a Premier who had been in office 9 years. He had never been able to get a liquor license for his restaurant because the holder of the only license permitted was paying the politicians more than he could afford. I was there the night of the election, his candidate won and he got his liquor license in two hours after the win. I will admit our politicians operate more covertly in the US but the results are the same. Only idiots from Chicago get caught and serve time.

Obama could not manage his way out of a paper sack with both ends open and a map. He has to have a Czar wipe his butt just because he can. Romney will at least get people back to work to help pay for our healthcare that Obama has robbed from the elderly to cover kids until they are 26 to bankrupt the insurance industry. When half of the country pays no taxes now, even those capable of working, something is bad wrong. Read my article I wrote about Denmark where I spent a lot of time. Everybody capable of work have to pay some 8% in taxes to pay for the healthcare costs. I can swallow this but we are now paying nearly 50% of able bodied workers, 13 million here illegally, to sit on their a** and let Ron and I pay for their groceries, gasoline, provide them cell phones and free college educations. I have grandkids who are borrowing thousands to attend college and actually have enough sense to become doctors, lawyers, CPA’s, engineers while these lazy bast***s going free never finish college as they know how to live free in the good old USA.

No one ever gave me a dime and I am not ashamed that I busted my ass to get my Master’s Degree at 47, pass the Registered Professional Engineering exam without an engineering degree at 48 and the Mensa exam at 49. The government gave me nothing as I was raised to provide for myself and by God I did. Now they have stripped me of $300,000 in savings to help feed Jose, his wife and kids because they deserve it, bull***t. Ask the Australian government to accept a few million from Indonesia or Mexico because they live in corrupt countries where the politicians and military own everything, then advise me on who I should vote for. I am not upset with you but you do not possess the facts I have discovered by reading, probing and sharing my experiences with as many people as I can entice to wake up before the US is in the same shape as Greece and Spain with many more Europeans approaching anarchy in the streets. That is Obama’s plan and he has divided this country worse that it was before the civil war.
